I really want to agree wiht this, but it's difficult. Sherri's bs sets adoption and surrogacy back years! If she were not getting a divorce, Sherri would consider this her child and hopefully she would fight for that child. Now, she just tosses it out so she does not have to come off of cash? The birth mother has to be wondering what happens to this kid once she hands him/her over. What does this do for surrogacy in the future? Sherri signed an agreement with the surrogate that she would be the child's mother and now she isn't ? Why not fight for custody even if her husband if the bio father? Because the whole pregnancy was for show? She doesn't take care the of the kid she has now.

It's no wonder some states don't screw around with surrogacy. The courts just don't have time for this!

If I were the birth mother, I'd keep the kid and give Sherri and her husband the finger!

but then that women is now stuck with a kid and bills to pay which she didn't sign up for

Im actually with Sherri on this. She's nearly 50 and likely wasn't looking to be a mother so late in life. She had a new husband with no kids and agreed to compromise for his sake. Now she learns he played her and is using this kid as a weapon to extort money from her. Its much easier to get away from all this before the baby is born, before any bonding occurs. If Sal filed for divorce later and she tried this months after she had been raising it, then Id be giving her the side eye. I don't think its all about money. She'd have to put up with this no good man for the rest of her life and he is a mistake that she'd rather forget about and move on from

Ooooh this is like some juicy soap opera drama. It reminds me of B&B when Taylor gave her kid away after she learned Brooke was the bio mother and she and Nick divorced. Different circumstances but I got that vibe. Actually this is more like AMC's Greenlee, Ryan, Kendall mess with Greenlee being Sherri, saying she didn't want the baby before he was born after she decided to leave town and get a divorce

This poor child. No one deserves to be brought into this world under the burden of lifelong scandal. I swear, some people just do not deserve children. They are not pawns, they are not playthings. Creating a child can be one of the most selfish, self-serving acts a human can commit. It is not about you. It is about that baby who did not ask to exist.

Sherri's ultimately fighting for the child she already has, her son Jeffrey, because her soon to be ex-husband is absolutely making a play for her money, money that could otherwise be used for Jeffrey.

The child isn't biologically hers, she compromised for the sake of her marriage. I hope a judge goes in her favour.

I love the irony of this bastard suing her for full custody and making claims that she would be an unift mother and she turns around and gives him exactly what he wants by forfeiting any rights to the child. I wonder how much he will want to be a single dad now without a check to collect

    • 40 years ago this month, the best and most pivotal television season of the 1980s came to an end. Here’s how the rookie breakout and the four soaps wrapped up the season.

Dallas – Deliverance (May 10): Bobby seeks evidence to free Jenna. The Ewings go confidently to court. Mitch asks Lucy to move in. J.R. wants Sue Ellen hospitalized. Dynasty - The Heiress (May 8): Krystle learns Daniel is dead. King Galen courts Alexis. Amanda sees Michael with Elena. Sammy Jo learns Krystle will handle her money and is furious about the decision. Knots Landing – One Day in a Row (May 9): Ben aids in Karen's search for Val's babies. Mack replies to the governor's offer. Ruth uses Abby to break up Laura and Greg. Falcon Crest – Cold Comfort (May 10): Fugitive Lance desperately searches for Lorraine, who lies comatose in a San Francisco hospital. Robin returns with startling news.   Dallas – Swan Song (season 8 finale, May 17): Jenna's release from jail depresses Pam. Sue Ellen thinks she saw Dusty. Donna tells Ray about her pregnancy. Cliff consults an attorney about an annulment. Lucy and Mitch remarry. Sudden tragedy strikes Bobby. Dynasty – Royal Wedding (season 5 finale, May 15): Sammy Jo makes her roommate look like Krystle. Elena reassures Amanda about her upcoming marriage. Terrorists come for the royal wedding of Prince Michael and Amanda. Falcon Crest – Confessions (May 17): Melissa confesses to framing Lance. Pamela gives Maggie proof that Richard bribed Judge Holder. Connie reveals her love for Chase. Knots Landing – Vulnerable (May 16): Ruth wants Abby to break up Greg and Laura. Karen makes a breakthrough in her hunt for Val's babies. Joshua hampers Val's recovery. Knots Landing – The Long and Winding Road (season 6 finale, May 23): Abby fears being linked to the disappearance of Val's babies. Laura leaves Greg. The Fishers are determined to keep Val's babies. Falcon Crest – The Avenging Angel (season 4 finale, May 24): Lorraine dies. Angela throws a victory party. Cassandra's mother arrives. An explosion rips through Richard's house. 1984/85 was the season the primetime soaps pulled out all the stops to out-do each other and everything culminated in the spring. May 1985 was the zenith of primetime soaps as a genre.

    • Charles Grant first appeared as Evan in September 1988. I was surprised to come across this item from December 1985, almost 3 years earlier: "Lots of action behind the scenes at Another World . . . I have bad news for fans of Christopher Holder (Peter Love). He will be leaving the show in the new year. I have heard that the producers are recasting the part and are also seeing actors for new roles. One of the main characters this spring will be Marlee [sic] and Victoria's father. The producers have been talking to Charles Flohe (John "Preacher" Emerson, Edge Of Night) about another new character to be featured. I will fill you in on the results as soon as I know." It seems obviously too early for anyone to have been planning to introduce Evan Frame. Based on the context he's not being considered as a recast of Peter. Maybe they were considering him for the character that turned out to be Neal, who started around the same time as Marcus Smythe as Peter?

    • That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun! Just looking back at this thread, the recent end of & I have to admit I am surprised that several of you give it such high marks. Now, literally all I know about the modern reboot I learned from Slezak in Linda Dano's podcast & I must tell you I got a very different impression from what she said. If you are interested, those podcast episodes are still up even though Dano is not making any new ones. My impression from what she said was that they had no idea what they were doing & it was no wonder that the project was an abject failure She & many others were owed a ton of money. At the end the mid-level staff came out & basically said, they didn't know what to do, that the people were not here & they guessed it was over. So, as you can imagine I was appalled. 
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
