Important but forgotten soap relatives

On ATWT, I thought it was really stupid that Lyla Perretti has been MIA for years (they brought her back briefly in 2000, I believe) even though three of her four children reside in Oakdale, and she hasn't met two of her grandchildren.

The Teddy/Angie thing definitely in terms of the most recent example, but I also think it's odd that we've never heard Kendall or Bianca make mention of their Aunt Silver, not to mention step-gran Goldie. I mean, this is the type of thing that I could buy being explained off-screen, but it would be a nice throwaway even to hear these girls bring up the very interesting past their mom had with the fake and real version of her sister. I think the soaps are too afraid that we take throwaways too seriously and anticipate that they automatically mean the reintroduction of a character. Even if some assume so, who cares?? It's like Donna and the three pillows, a little curiosity never hurt the follower of a serial, make us wonder, make us wait...

Y&R: Olivia's son Nate, Mary Williams, Lauren's son Scotty.

Perhaps it's better they stay far away from Genoa City with the current TPTB.

GL: Trudy Bauer, the Reardons except for Nola and Bridget who came back for the last few episodes, Justin Marler and Ross's sister who name escapes me at the moment.

ATWT: Ellie Snyder? John Dixon, in regards to Dusty and hell the whole town.

    • Absolutely! Brad should've simply moved on from Lunacy. There's no point of freeing her, if you're not going to at least make an attempt at redemption or incorporating her into the fold. It happened with Quinn, who committed quite a few felonies before become the Forrester Matriarch.  Heck, keep Lunacy in prison and have Poppy/Finn discover that she gave birth to twins - 'Sunny' could've come on with a clean slate and still had Sheila/Finn and all the other drama. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we've witnessed with the destruction of $B.    
    • I would enjoy it if Swan popped up on BTG as an old one time friend/mentor of Anita’s for a cameo. This is just

    • I had totally forgotten that Courtney story. I see Burton was already phoning it in by that point.
    • omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati.  He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling.   I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

    • There's a lot you don't need if you have the writing.  You don't even need large casts!  You could make do with a cast of 12-18 actors if the writing is there.
    • Thank you. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping around if your spouse actually knows about it. She’s just a cheating slut.
    • OMG...Robert Mandan! And Donna Mills is a child. I keep hoping for more of early Ross/Vanessa.
    • I get your point, but I also know that if the roles were reversed -- if a man were screwing around on a woman this way -- everyone would be all "All with his head!" When I say Vanessa needs therapy, I'm actually being kind, because I could begin and end with the fact that she's a cheating slut.
    • Is nobody going to mention the cringefest that is 'Carl Ivati'?
    • I've accepted we'll probably never see any of the Roger/Holly 1976-1978 storyline. Whenever any of Roger/Holly 1979 and 1980 storylines surface, those are must watch as they set in motion everything we saw a decade later.
