Wasn't their dad in a few episodes too? I remember scenes where they (I don't remember exactly who was dating who at the time) were down there for some big dinner.

Ugh, all of the awesome scenes of motherly bitchery we are being robbed of!!

And you KNOW Mrs. Williamson could read Dorian!

Lisa/Dorian scenes would be made of golden awesome. Even now I wish Layla had Dorian there with her instead of Cris. She needs someone with balls. Lisa and Uncle Clay were perfect candidates to be folded into the show years ago and I know Malone wanted to do it but regimes changed and the rest is history.

Lisa Vs Rex would be GOLD.

WOW ABC showed the John promo during The Bachelorette. Im in shock!

Can they please just wake Evangeline up already...

I'd trade Tea in for Evangeline, anyday.

No he's dead...that was their Uncle Clay, although I can't remember if he was Lisa's brother, or Vang and Layla's dad's brother.

Keep both and get rid of Gigi.

Yeah I was shocked, I was flipping through channels and saw it, thought maybe I landed on Soapnet, but it was ABC. Shocking

Quick....someone look outside to see if pigs are flying and hell has frozen over.

Zimmer prefers the bus.

^Damn, that was cold....but I totally saw that coming haha.

Why does Cole still exist? Grotesque murder mystery, please.

Lisa is a f'n bitch.

Oh, and Kristen needs to stop nearly looking at the camera. It's beyond obnoxious.

I loved her Aunt Vivian, but after seeing some candid footage of Janet Hubert, I'm pretty sure she believes these scenes are real life.

Incidentally, just to clarify, putting Layla aside (she came later, I believe), the insipid Williamson two-day cameo brood of 2005 was not a Malone creation. At all. Malone was loooong gone by then. For my money, I deeply resented the patronizing tone of the Higley regime, introducing a score of African-American dayplayers - several played by serious character actors, such as Obba Babatunde - to do nothing but prop up Michael Easton and REG for a couple days, while OLTL's longtime minority players got absolutely nothing, and still have virtually nothing.

Oh I forgot that was Obba. I do remember going all fantasy land and wishing this black family in MD had their own spinoff. I'd of course settle for a fleshed out s/l on One Life. Obba and fellow Broadway star (and ex-Sheila) Valerie Pettiford play(ed? is it still on?) husband and wife on the sitcom Half & Half. I'd have taken Lisa and some hitherto unmentioned Williamson siblings and cousins over the Fords any day.

That's a bit Sophie's Choice for me. Or it's like another Meryl Streep film, Postcards From The Edge - on having Joan Crawford or Lana Turner as alternate parents; "these are the options?"

I can take family for Layla now. Back then, with R.J., et al languishing for years it was quite different.
