Return of Fan Fave to AMC

Julia Barr is back to AMC in February as Brooke English! It doesn't say for how long but based on the article it sounds like a real return and not just an appearance or two.

I hope that she and Jackson are married just as Erica finds out Greenlee is alive and feels threatened in her relationship with Ryan. That would be classic AMC.

I can't wait! Julia Barr seemed to have a real spark in her in the anniversary episode, which I missed in Brooke in her last years on the show. I will look forward to seeing Erica spar with a woman her own age, and seeing the women in PV hopefully start to have more intelligence again.

From SOD On-line - it sounds like she may be back just for one story arc and it starts on February 23:

Julia Barr Returns To AMC!

Thought the glimpse we got of Julia Barr's Brooke on the January 5 anniversary episode was all you'd get? Well, you thought wrong! Soap Opera Digest has learned that the actress will be back starting February 23 for what a show rep promises will be "a great story arc." Barr joined AMC in 1976, winning two Daytime Emmys before leaving in 2006 when she opted not to remain with the show on recurring status (she was not offered a new contract when hers expired).

Yay!!!!! :P

I never imagined Brooke would come back and I can't wait to see what's in store for her. Imo, this also fuels the speculation that Broderick might become the official headwriter since she and Julia have always been close.

OMG! I am so excited over this. Great news! I can't believe Frons is allowing this LOL. She looked terrific on the show yesterday. She happens to be bffs with Lorraine Broderick, which tells me that Lorraine, and probably Agnes to an extent, are firmly guiding things. Like most AMC fans, having been burnt so often, I'm still cautiously optimistic that we can get our show back, but this is really cause for excitement. I really hope this is the start of good things for the show.

    • The thing that I am stuck on is that the in studio scenes in Egypt started airing in mid-October. It seems very strange that they would have planned to have a couple of weeks of studio scenes airing before they started showing location footage. Normally even though some scenes in a remote-infused storyline are in studio, they would start airing a mixture of studio and location footage at the same time. I suspect they had put Arizona in their back pocket well before the Achille Lauro (hence Hawk arriving in September) and possibly moved up the Egypt in-studio action so that the remote Arizona piece unfolded during November. The Achille Lauro may have been the final straw but I would bet it was not the first time they considered the risk. I have found one somewhat contemporaneous reference published on October 19th but pinned to an October 7th* "diary entry" mentioning that the location shoot in Egypt had been changed to Arizona. "International terrorism has its effect on daytime drama, too. Another World producers had scheduled an elaborate and expensive location shoot in Egypt this fall, But with the serious military attacks and hijackings going on, they decided to play it safe. They are going to Arizona instead. The cast members involved were disappointed but understood the decision." *Undated, but specified as the Monday before Melody Thomas's wedding to Ed Scott. But of course it's possible that the first draft referred to Egypt and was revised after October 7th to mention the cancellation before it went to press. But even making the decision the week of October 7th seems tight to get the Egypt scenes to air on the 17th/18th. I would love to find something from a daily news cycle that would be clearer about the dates.
    • So, Maxim, at this moment in time Evan is under the (mistaken) impression that, for no good reason, Rachel murdered his mother, in cold blood, and his ulterior motive for coming to Bay City is to get vengeance for this wrong that was done to his family & him.  Now, Rachel never murdered anyone. Janice had the knife on her & she pulled the knife on Rachel in the fight they were having. The reason they were fighting was because Janice had been poisoning Mac. So, this sets out the difference between the Frame family version of events & reality as the rest of us know it to be. Also no one in Bay City knows Evan is Janice's son. He goes by Evan Bates, not Frame.

                        Janice Frame is Evan's mother. Janice & Mac were together. Janice was up to no good. Mitch was helping her. She was slowly, little by little, every day, POISONING Mac. She was almost successful. In St. Croix, Rachel & Janice began what was literally a physical fight. They fell into the resort swimming pool, continuing to fight each other. Somehow, I guess Janice had it on her, there was a knife in play but Rachel kept Janice from stabbing her & got it away from her & they continued to struggle until Rachel stabbed Janice, which was a death blow. Mitch did a 180 & helped Rachel get Mac to the hospital. He was so weakened by the poison he could not even stand unassisted. It took both of them together to walk him to the hospital but it did save his life.  The St. Croix remote was SO beautiful, but so dangerous & scary. Also action-packed. Hooray! Maxim's backSo, I just got home & this is what I found waiting for me. I wrote this several hours ago. I guess I neglected to hit send.
    • Thanks @skylark and @DRW50!
    •     data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw== Earlier I made a long reply but it doesn't exist. Crap.
    • I do not think I have ever agreed with Vee. Normally I do not read him, Ignore ya know. For some unknown reason I clicked to read. And I agree 1000%. Now, this is so odd that I need to go away for a bit.
    • Justine had a lot of hooey in it, but she was an actual woman, not a guy in drag. She was a doppelganger of Rachel, French, having had a past history with Carl, etc. Two of the more outrageous parts-Justine bricking alive Vicky into a wall & Justine grinding the gears driving a big rig.
    • Hehe, twi/x actually x, formerly Twitter. Typically I find 2 sources for "crazy fan rumors" - the wrong parts of FB and x. Oy.
    • Not to hijack the thread, but was that character Justine? I just found this interview online with Logan and see what you're talking about - wow!   http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/chat85.html
