Don't expect Karen Wolek to make a return trip to Llanview, PA. before One Life to Live ends next January. According to sources, Judith Light recently declined an offer from the sudser to reprise the career-making role as the housewife hooker she played from 1977-1983. I'm hearing this isn't the first time Light has turned OLTL down, despite always speaking fondly of her time on the serial in the press. Reportedly the brass wanted Light to appear as Karen for the soap's 40th anniversary back in 2008, but the Who's The Boss? and Ugly Betty star allegedly passed that time as well.

Here's hoping, with seven months left before the finale, TPTB will somehow be able to convince Light to change her mind.

Just posted in the other forum...

I'm not sure I necessarily believe this so-called rumor originally reported by "Daytime Confidential".

Judith gave an interview to EW Online recently where she was asked which tv roles would she play again...

Which of your TV characters would you play again?

Oh, any one of them. I loved them all. I’ve had some incredible roles. I mean, if you’re talking about One Life to Live or Who’s the Boss or Law & Order. There isn’t one that I wouldn’t love to do again. They were written fantastically and I had a great time doing them all. I would happily go back. I was just talking to Vanessa Williams at the Broadway.com Audience Choice Awards [Light won Best Actress in a Play] about how much we miss our Ugly Betty family. It’s so true.

I highly doubt that Judith, known for her integrity, would do an interview saying she would "happily go back" to one or all of her most famous television roles only to turn down a return to One Life shortly thereafter. Just doesn't make sense.

Until the so-called "rumor" is confirmed, I think it is just that - a rumor.

Perhaps she hasn't even been asked at this point.
