Members Clear Drama Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 I think they brain farted the baby's existance. As if Mia were never here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 I missed that part of the conversation. I just remember the part about the cousins. Well, if the kid was given up for adoption, he really isn't a father. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 They need to ask Lisa if she'll come back, at least on recurring. The show needs a real matriarch (sorry, Opes, but you don't count, darrrrrlin), and she's perfect. Jesse's aunt, former neighbor of Jake and Tad's, her son even played with "Joey," etc. They don't have to mention any of her stories from the 70s, just have her come on as Jesse's aunt and a former long-time Pine Valley resident, which is what she is. The rest writes itself. BUT OH MY GOD, All My Shadows. She's black and she's over 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 He was horrid!! Is AMC just ignoring the fact that Frankie has a son with Mia Saunders, or do you think they just forgot? To me it seems like they forgot, because the kid has never been mentioned ONCE since Frankie came back. Usually in situations like that, the kid is at least mentioned sometimes. But not with Frankie and Mia's son. Or maybe AMC really wants Amelia Heinle back as Mia, and they are waiting for her to leave or be let go from YnR to start opening up that can of worms again. But i doubt that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Clear Drama Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 Y&R would never release her, she's too versatile. If AMC gets her back that adds some interesting drama and a rootable female, they'd kill for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 Mia would not come back with any baby because, one, William was adopted, and two, he'd be well into his mid teens by now. And that's without SOARS'ing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 For real. The only way they could work him in now is one of those boring "Why didn't you want me?!" stories. And besides, even without SORASing, putting a 16-year-old actor up against 26-year-old Cornelius as his son would just be...wrong. Yeah, there have been small gaps between the ages of soap parents and children before, but Corn doesn't look anywhere near old enough to be daddy to a teen.

Members Khan Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 Frankly, I don't think Dave & Donna (and whoever wrote the breakdown) even know. HW's don't bother to research character histories anymore. Hence, Teddy Ruxpin Baxter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 You didn't miss anything, Jonathan. It never existed. Madison: Do you have any young children in your family? Frankie: Some young boy cousins. Why? Madison: Forget it. Frankie's child he never knew was totally irrelevant to the conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Clear Drama Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 I didn't mean it word for word, and she asked any young children...he didn't even acknowledge that he had a son. But thanks for clearing that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 It doesn't matter. Viewers are as bad as (if not worse than) TPTB when it comes to marginalizing characters of color (especially men). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 True. Of course, I still doubt anyone on that writing staff knows about the kid. LOL!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted June 1, 2010 Members Share Posted June 1, 2010 Exactly. Jason Olive was totally miscast as Frankie and though I do believe that these writers and their successors should have to lay in the slapdash beds that they make, I'd just as soon send JO's Frankie down the River Styx in the same kayak as Josh.
