That's why it's difficult for me to come up with a list of actors/characters who could return (even in ghostly form) for Monica's funeral.  And in some cases, like with Chris Robinson (ex-Rick), it's probably best they don't return anyway, since this show has managed to character-assassinate so many people over the years.  So, I'll just settle for Denise Alexander and Billy Warlock* and leave it at that.

 

*Because, like hell Sean Kanan's ever coming back, lol.

Sean Kanan can always come back someday. Far worse bridges have been burnt in daytime. But I hesitate to use either his ghost or Emily's, because I would not intend to keep them dead.

I do think Denise is important if she's able to appear. And I would ask Amber, not Natalia.

I remember this promo from when I was a kid. Good times.

I should amend this - I would never ask nor expect Amber Tamblyn to return full time as Emily, her career and profile are too big for that now. But I would still ask her to appear in a tribute to Leslie regardless in some role, either as Emily's 'ghost' or a ringer character, like what they did so well with B.J./Brighton Hertford last year. You could still bring Emily back alive down the road with another actor, and any ghost appearance can be shrugged off the same as Ghost Jesse, etc. on AMC.

Amber is a better actress than Natalia, but I think she is so established as Emily and Ghost Emily - but I also think there's a way of having Amber return if willing so we could get some of the flashbacks of Emily with Monica from early in her run, before she spent all her time hurling abuse.

I think Amber will always be The Emily to most fans and is obviously much more famous. Not dissimilar to Jonathan as Lucky, really. Natalia has only appeared maybe once or twice as the ghost (not counting Nikolas' hallucinations), and while I had less issues with her tenure than other people her stories were often unpopular. I wouldn't begrudge Natalia appearing but my choice would be Amber, who had the deep onscreen relationship with Leslie.

I'm sure they'll do whatever they need to do to get Denise Alexander there. Out of all the memorials they done over the past decade, they've basically gone out of their way to make sure they get who they need there and involved however. The two big misses were Frisco at Sean's memorial and Luke being involved with Bobbie's, and the show couldn't really do much about either of those.

Outside of Denise Alexander, I'm sure they'll try to get one of the Emilys. She doesn't have much of a connection to the characters left, but I imagine they probably ask Robin Christopher.

I honestly though feel like between Tracy, Ned, Lois, and Jason for family and then Laura, Lucy, Felicia, Liz, and Anna, there's enough people to do a good memorial.

If she's well enough. I hope so, as she's appeared a fair amount over the last 5-10 years or so. (They went so far as to give Lesley that Italian lover.) I just remember that unfortunate and silly series of scenes in the Carlivati era in 2013 where Denise could clearly barely stand unassisted and they had geriatric Lesley sneaking into the hospital in a lab coat trying to peek at Luke's test results and getting caught by Monica. I get the intention (however goofy) but they didn't need to do that kind of camp with Denise also clinging to the set for dear life. So I hope she's still able.

Agreed.
