Bonnie Finnegan is a BIG name in casting, and I think she only did original casting for RP. I'm almost positive she won't be handling AMC. But maybe one of the others? There are always former soapers like Mary Clay Boland and Rob Decina too.

Is Bob Lambert still the associate for AMC? But you're right, they could just have Julie Madison and Tori Visgilio doing double duty for both shows, i.e., a Head CD for both shows and more associates like in the old days when Joan cast AMC and OLTL. They say otherwise, but I still sense there will be some significant production cuts made for these shows.

That could work. Joan did cast both shows til 1990 and she had input from the EP's on both shows for every casting. Could see PP doing something like that

It'll probably be OLTL's casting director and an associate based in L.A.

Their casting IMO sucks.

Mark Teschner is the best soap casting director out there. Granted he's not available at this point but maybe they should have looked at someone who works for him or with him. Of course we don't know who PP is going to use. Maybe, here is a concept, someone new and fresh,

Well if she comes I won;t be watching Kendall and Ryan forget it. I am already less interested with some of these recent announcements. These people think the status quo is good I guess.

I Think PP would want to start with Characters already on the Canvas then based on who signs on, bring past characters back then bring on new characters

I have to say, I am incredibly intrigued about the *prospect* of them losing a significant amount of cast requiring them to introduce a new family or two. Sort of like Y&R's renaissance back in the early '80s I guess? If some new characters represented the underrepresented on daytime, all the better. To what degree are ABC's grubby hands off this bitch?

I do think the show could use a break from Kendall, but I like that she's supportive of the show and seems to really want to make it work. I just wish they'd make Kendall the scheming vixen she SHOULD be. Not the crying heroine she was turned into. Didn't SMG's Kendall once fake/attempt a suicide to hold onto, who was it? Anton? Where's THAT Kendall? I'm all for maturing a character but don't outright change them, even with a recast.

She grew up. With everything she's been through, experienced and evolved, it wouldnt make sense to start writing her like that again. They might as well bring in a new character to play a scheming vixen bc that is not who Kendall is today nor should she be. She works best as an anti-heroine today in 2011 as opposed to the way she was almsot 20 years ago in 1993. She's a mother, a career woman, actually has friends, family that loves her, etc... She doesnt have a reason to fight and isnt against the world anymore. That inner turmoil and conflict which was core to her when she first joined is no longer there and it wouldnt be right to protray her as such just bc thats how she used to be. People change...it happens
