We'll miss you, Amy Jo Johnson/Elizabeth Hendrickson look-a-like hottie widow that could have been Marissa if we had our way w/ this show, girl.:(

It is evil Eve from Angel. She should definitely be Marissa. I don't know that the actress who currently plays Marissa has managed to keep that role. She must know someone at ABC.

I loved this episode! The flow that we were talking about the other day was so much better, except for the very end when Erica's friends suddenly appeared to celebrate her engagement to Jack. Their scenes were the highlight for me.

Now is the time for ABC to air promos saying the real Greenlee is back! The petulant spoiled little rich girl has finally returned and I hope she's here to stay. Of course, Jack would choose Erica over her considering he has more history with La Kane and Greens is totally out of line, but that's the way I like her. I can't wait for her Fusion launch party/ambush on Erica.

Why was Jake hanging Erica's new IV bag? As another poster said, his appearance was annoying and I've only seen nurses do that in real life.

Marissa seems to finally be ready to take David's advice. In a way, I like that her transformation to manipulative wife didn't happen overnight, but Brittany Allen has made the character so whiny lately that it's been hard to watch her. I'm hoping she can play evil better than she did good. Otherwise, I'd be open for any of the actresses mentioned as a potential recast even though I didn't recognize any of them.

I don't see how Annie & JR can go back to Marissa and Scott after their Carpe Diem conversation. They need to just get together and let the chips fall where they may.

Me too.

That should be interesting.

That's RPG all in one.

I can't wait till it causes her the marriage and everything. They should have recasted her. IDK if evil she can play, it's adding life into a character and she hasn't done it. Trent's ex. had more spunk in that 1 scene, SRSLY WHY SHOW! she could have been Marissa!

It's simple they'll lie or Marissa will break that up and shower JR w/ guilt while Annie is guilted what she might be doing to Scott.

I knew I knew her from somewhere, but I couldnt figure out where. IA, Id take her as Marissa

Ugh! This means I'll have to watch... even though I shut it off after the first act break. The way people have been so extreme about Meryl Streep -- I mean, Christina Bennett Lind's Bianca, I need to see this for myself.

I thought CBL was great in this episode. She toned it down and her and La Lucci have a believeable daughter/mother relationship.

That was it? That's what all of this raving is about? She appeared just as sugary sweet and sappy as Marissa pre-I Wanna Be Baaaad Like Dad!

That face should've told me all I needed to know.

Did you watch season 5 of Angel? She was quite good in that and played a more devious and manipulative character

She can be sugary sweet like how Marissa used to be, but she can also be a fierce biotch, like how Marissa is trying to be now to keep up with Annie. Brittany Allen is still falling short in that department. She still comes off as a boring, snarly potted plant. If Sarah Thomson was re cast in this role, I believe we would see a huge improvement in the character.

She's doing okay. I'm not a recast-friendly viewer but she seems like a solid actress.

I didnt get Marissa's cliffhanger today on te phone. Apparently AJ got a bee sting and she told the person that she will pick him up bc his father will want to see him. So what? BTW, her dress was ugly

So much for Greenlee's guilt. What a bitch. What happened to her being so distressed adn guilty over what she and David did last week? Now that Erica's alive, thats absolved her of her sins? I find how heartless and selfish she is being to be despicable. She really has some nerve proceeding with the launch party of her line, considering how she sabotaged Erica's "Oh she's invited too" What a biyatch

The real kicker though was when she was talking to David and said this. "It wasnt enough that Erica had to be rescued by him, but she had to turn my own father against me. He practically threw me out of my hospital and Bianca was right there cheering him own like a Kane clone"

Erica turned him against you? He wasnt already against you BEFORE he rescued Erica? Wasnt it YOUR actions, your secrets and your lies that got him to turn against you? I hate how phont she is. She doesnt give a damn about Erica or her family and she only showed up with flowers for damage control. Im glad Bianca threw her out and I hope she ruins Greenlee's launch party. I hope she finds a way to publicly humilate her and put a halt to her plans

Say it again. Bitch is a psychopath.

Erica should've just let go of the company months ago. Playing dirty is playing dirty and they're both guilty -- except Fusion is Greenlee's company. Forget about it and move the hell on.

But Erica's not doing it for herself, she's doing it for her DAUGHTER Kendall! And her other DAUGHTER Bianca! And her DAUGHTER'S DAUGHTER Miranda and her DAUGHTER'S DAUGHTER'S SISTER Gabrielle!

LOL! The word, "grand..." will never pass through Erica's lips.

marceline love, what's your deal with recasts?

I just don't do them. When I like a character it's usually because I like that actor's portrayal and I tend to "imprint" on that version and if there's a recast, I always picture how "my " actor would do it. I don't do it to be mean or stubborn and I try not to hate on recasts but its very rare for me to grow to like a recast if I liked the original. For example, when I watched OLTL, not a day went by that I didn't wonder how Mia Korf would've played Blair. KDP has been in that role for 15(?) years and I still see her as a placeholder. Same with AM's Kendall. (Blasphemy, I know.) There's only been a handful of times I grew to really accept a recast. Think about it, other than soaps and James Bond movies what other medium regularly expects the audience to accept recasts?

I like Eden Riegel but I completely understand her reasons for calling it a day with AMC so I have NOTHING against CBL. Like I said, she seems like a solid actress so far but she's not Bianca for me.
