Do NOT get me started on Andy and Trish, the Chamberlain kids or Ken's unexplored relationship w/ daughter Emily. Oh, the hours upon hours I spent fanwanking stories for those (and other) characters....

Victoria, then Melinda Fee.

Charlotte came to town pretending to be Sara McIntire's niece but that was actually a con. After this she got involved with Mike Bauer, as I think he pitied her. She got pregnant and they got married. She didn't like Hope and made that pretty clear. She had a miscarriage. Eventually she and Mike divorced and she wanted Sara's love interest, Dr. Joe Werner. She made the mistake of confiding in and using Kit Vested, who also wanted Joe, and was a headcase. Kit poisoned Charlotte.

That's one of those stories I want to see some of. I'd love to see Vicky Wyndham in the role, apparently it was quite nasty (which was one of the reasons she left, presumably, as she was wary of AW and Rachel because Rachel was another bitch role). Melinda Fee I have only seen later in her soap career, when she seemed a bit lost, although she was good in the Love of Life episode saynotoursoap posted which was from a few years before she started at GL.

I recall something about Vicky's comments on taking on the role of Rachel, that she didn't want her to be the one dimensional bad girl that Robin had played, that she had been unsatisfied playing that type of character before. She also commented on Connie Ford's initial resistence to a more sympathetic Rachel.

In a way, though, Justine Kirkland, Wyndham's other role on ANOTHER WORLD, made Charlotte Waring Bauer look like Reva Shayne Lewis.

The Brooks sisters on Y&R. I seen them fitting well with the late 80's til mid 2000's cast. Not much was done with Peggy but she would be a great love interest for Tucker.

The Quartermaine cousins (Alexandra & Cecila) I know one is dead but the other one had more story in her and been taken to new heights and brought on when tptb wanted to rebuild the quartmaine family here recently.

Dougie LeClair: Doug Williams' son on Days, one would think Hope is an only child on Doug's Side. Through the years Dougie could have been used in stories with Hope, Doug, Julie, and Hope's family. Dougie could have been resentful toward Doug and Jealous of Hope and Julie.

I don't think the sisters should have been phased out in the early 80's like they were. I understand that Lorie couldn't be replaced but I think they could have used Leslie. From what I understand, her character was dating some lawyer that fizzled out but I figured they could have used her to introduce Lauren and her father. She could have started dating Lauren's dad and have to contend with a spoiled daddy's girl. It would have worked given her tangles with her sister Lorie for many years. The twist could have been that she still would have had to share a guy but with his daughter instead of with her sister. Just think of the nasty tricks Lauren could inflict on Leslie plus I could have seen Leslie be an ally to Traci.

    • Hey, Mike Manning, hey!!! That shirt and those slacks are working today. lol.   Nice to have this Vanessa/Nicole scene.    Look at Kat vs Eva as a cliffhanger.   I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW SILK PRESS SHEILA WOULD SHOW UP AT NICOLE'S AT SOME POINT!!!      Another trio of cliffhangers (including Dani vs Ted...another combo today)! Friday cliffhangers indeed!!!  
    • Looking forward to hearing your perspective. Tuesday was a little... ehhh though

      And Ron sort of did like a half-assed rewrite to bring them together. Apparently, Stephanie had never met Alex until 2022, even though she already knew Sonny, Joe and Vic 
    • Friday Thoughts:    June and Hayley are going to turn out to be related, or else why the casting on June's character if not for that.  Their voices and mannerisms are similar and Marquita had mentioned in an interview that we would be finding out more about Hayley's backstory.   Tomas/Eva/Kat is for sure going to be moving full steam ahead.. and I can't wait

      Dani/Bill = yawn    Bill/Smitty = Interest reeved up and we all know that means the secret involving Martin/Smitty/Anita is kicking into high gear for May sweeps. Vanessa/Nicole = A satisfying friendship scene.. and Nicole's statement about Vanessa's outside interests.. I did not see that coming Nicole/Andre = I noticed that Andre volunteered knowing about the affair, but managed to withhold the nugget of information where he had convinced Ted not to confess to Nicole. Dani/Ted = This perked my interest Nicole/Silk Press Sheila = A great way to end a Friday episode.  Sometimes grandma's soaps shouldn't be discarded, but followed. Martin/Smitty = Kat is right that Smitty is too good for Martin.. and Martin did act as though he missed his afternoon nap. Ashley/Derek = Unpopular opinion.. I actually kind of missed them.   I view their scenes as a great way to kickstart a drinking game... take a shot anytime you wonder to yourself what is the point to their characters and/or either one of them says something cringey.  You'll be guaranteed to be buzzing by the end of the episode Previews for next week: Looks like Nicole has found out about Dani/Andre's FWB set up? Kat vs Silk Press Sheila looks promising.      
    • GH isn't that character-driven a show in recent decades. I think reaction depends on whether the character has a passionate fanbase. A character like Ava always has people who will defend her and back her up, as does a character like Nina (when they used to write for Nina, anyway). Dante doesn't.
    • Go 'head, Martin!! GATHER.   Oh my goodness!!! Now we are getting Bill/Smitty. The combos today. 
    • Yeah; I feel like, in previous regimes, it wasn't as consistent as this. You could go episodes without it changing. I just hate the random indent on the secondary head writer.
    • Got it. I vaguely remember this being discussed. I guess it's fair.
    • Why does this Smitty/Kat talk feel like foreshadowing what's coming with Martin's Secret?   Hahaha. Not Kat and Tomas keep getting business in their way. And uh oh...Eva.   Oh, there's Ashley and Derek. Mmmm those pants.   And ooooooooo another Ted/Martin scene. YES, PLEASE.   Andre...no, no, no!!!! This is going to come back on you with Dani!!
    • I believe in the separation of church and soap.  
    • Danny and Rocco..... and Lulu(who usually annoys the heck out of me) were the best thing about today's boring episode. Even Sasha and Willow's were
