That's the problems with all the females on the show besides Erica - AMC writes them all as white-rice heroines who essentially need a man and kids to make them whole. From Liza, Greenlee and Kendall to Amanda, Bianca, Marissa, Madison and Cara. I was watching SOAPnet last night and the difference in the 2005 episode to now is huge with the females. These girls want to bake cakes, those girls want to bake their enemies. If AM and RB stay or either-or, and I do think keeping their big stars is of benefit to 2.0, they definitely need to get back to old-school Kendall, Greenlee at least somewhat. No matter who stays or goes, AMC needs to get back to those snarky, bitchy fabulous women. Women are huge to AMC, but women with that snarky, bitchy flame are even more so.

The have a lot of options for women and remember we have new HW's. LB and AN might have some ideas on how to revive other parts of the canvas with a couple of new characters added to ???? who knows. They can recast Jake as far as I am concerned. I vote for Greg Vaughan. Amanda they could just write off and bring on a new Martin female perhaps?

They could bring so many characters back Like Nina, Tara, Kelsey, Ross, Jeff, Paul, Mark, Ellen, Julie, Charlie and his kids. Sam Grey, Lily, REggie, Barbara, Sean, Molly, Jamie, Vanessa, Maggie, Laura, Tim, Jonathan, Janet, Marion, Adrian Etc Etc

If they get Lucci they don't need Budig and I know you like her but I think Minshew is a weak Kendall and a lot of the changes to writing Kendall was to suit her version of the character. I never bought her Kendall as scheming or calculating. I like the idea of Madison stepping in to fill this role.

Yeah, Fusion is played out but the show needs another business to replace it. We need to keep the workplace/business angle and it looks like Chandler Enterprises is history. If SuLu signs on, I think she should get something generic like "Kane Ventures" where they could pull in Fusion, some Chandler stuff, Project Orpheus, etc.., That way we get to see the women at work without having to deal with the "Sex and the City" bullshit and it would be a great way to pull Colby and Petey back into the fold.

Agree 100 % with ur list

My point is AMC has such a history and there are tons ogf Martins, Tylers, Chandlers, Kanes, Montgomerys out there to continue this show

Since ME is staying as John On OLTL and KB & CS return soon as Marcie & Michael, Do U think PP will want them and what about Tina and Cord. Both would be cool

Genie Francis Needs to forget ABC & GH and PP needs to get her to Bring Laura to Pine Valley Or Llanview and yes I know she was Cearra on AMC but it could still work. I think AMC & OLTL would use a strong Laura

JaneA, I disagree on AM, I thought she was a more layered Kendall than SMG (yeah, I said it again!) and played an awesome anti-heroine. I think it's the "supercouple" pairing that watered the character down as much as she's been since late 2007 not the writers going off AM's vibe. It happens with any character, male or female, when they get into a popular pairing that overtakes the character to a detriment. IMO, only Susan Lucci and David Canary in the canvas of AMC has been able to avoid the curse.

Agreed. Adam and Brooke, of course, also cannot be recast IMO.

    • Was Angela still on the show at that point? I think I caught some of the show on Lifetime or TNT  when they reran the series, and Angela never seemed to be on during the last season. I remember thinking it felt the like the last season was a completely different show and that Wendy Philips was too grounded of an actress (not a criticism) for a nighttime soap.    I don't understand the concept because I don't think most people channel hop. I can understand wanting Alfonso's popularity to rub off, but why engender bad feelings by firing Ana Alicia and bringing on Alfonso? Soap execs never learned that lesson. Like Ellen Parker a few years later, I don't think they realized Ana Alicia's popularity.
    • I think they tended to run the cast list once a week, but I don't know if it had a consistent day.
    • Does Search for Tomorrow ever list the cast in its end credits? I watched about fifteen videos from 1985 to look at the cast credits at the end and I never saw any except for Mary Stuart's credit. I try not to google cast members if there's a chance I might watch a soap so I don't spoil exits.
    • Jeez louise, they overdid it with the music in late 1985. Wendy's self-loathing episode on Dec. 6 is "underscored" (if we can call it that) to the end theme from Scarface, of all movies.
    • It's always hot when he's onscreen 
    • True. So it must be the heat.   LOL. Oh, you. 
    • That's a lousy ad. They didn't even choose good headshots. That's the least attractive I've seen Gregory Harrison look in his entire career. He looked hotter on GH last year! And CBS would keep bringing over ABC or NBC actors (more often ABC) for their soaps, further gutting their identities. Sad all around. Of course, they are the only network to have more than one soap on the air, so who am I to judge?
    • He always looks a snack to me lol!  Yes Blue is his color for sure! Those arms of his are huge *must not think dirty thoughts* 
    • Maybe trying to ramp up the nostalgia factor? The only original characters left on the show were Angela, Lance, and Chao-Li. But FC hadn’t been watched by too many since 1987 and the finale didn’t bring back any old living characters like Emma, Cole, Peter Stravos etc. 
    • 5-13   That was kinda meh except for the coda. Liam figuring out that Hope knows he's dying. And ending it on that. Good acting.   Oh, Luna. smh. But I guess I do look forward to see how she expects to wiggle her way into Finn's life. And uh oh at Sheila and seeing the wheels start to turn again. Honestly, he's been looking like a whole snack the last few weeks. And I can't decide if it's just the heat here lol or if he's just been working out more than usual.  But blue and shades of it has been such a great color on him.
