Members Shawn Posted September 29, 2011 Author Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 I was always 50/50 on a Lumi pairing. I loved that they have such a history together, but when they're all lovey dovey, they're nauseating. BD also lost a lot of his appeal over the years, in my opinion. His portrayal always seemed to border on rich, entitled brat, no matter what the scene called for. If the part were recast with someone else, perhaps I could really root for a Lumi pairing, but then, it depends on who gets the part. I still want it to be Anna or Laura though. Perhaps Anna will get arrested and put on trial for her schemes, and she asks Carrie to defend her? That'd be good drama. Laura's return could help usher Bill back in, and infuse the show with more of the Horton family. Again, I would like the role recast. JLB is good, but her Laura bordered on manic most of the time. I swear she was hyperventilating half the time while on screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Indeed. Most people *inhale* before they start to talk. JLB's Laura always seemed to let out a big *exhale* before speaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 I didn't like JLB's portrayal of Laura. I would like to see her come back, and her reappearance in Salem could indeed usher in a returned Bill Horton. I know this is a long shot but what about Julia Barr who was last on AMC recurring as Laura??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted September 29, 2011 Author Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 True! It was like watching an air mattress deflating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted September 29, 2011 Author Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 That's not a bad suggestion. I would love to see an established actress take over the role. Julia, Elizabeth Hubbard, and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Shawn, I like the idea of Elizabeth Hubbard in the role of Laura as well or even Lisa Brown who played Iva on As The World Turns. Something tells me though that Julia Barr and Melissa Reeves would have some amazing dynamics and chemistry if she were to be cast in the role of Laura. They could even give her a storyline revolving around martial problems with Bill (hence why she is back in Salem) only to bring Bill on when they found the right actor for the role. Laura and Marlena could see patients at the hospital together and I like how someone suggested Laura start a romance with Dr. Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted September 29, 2011 Author Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Oh lord, no. Laura already slept with Jack. It'd be a kick in the crotch to have Jennifer find out that her mother slept with her latest guy, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Okay so forget I said that....lol. I had forgotten that Laura slept with Jack. Was that during Reily's tenure that that event occurred??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Julia Barr as Laura Horton would be a fantastic idea. And yes, Laura slept with Jack when Mark Valley played the role and they were both patients with anonymous names at The Meadows. The reveal came out right before Jenn & Peter's Aremid wedding. Ah, the good ol' DAYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Why would anyone willing sic Dr. McHairy Chest on yet another character? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Julia Barr would also be believable as Melissa Reeves mother. If Jerry Ver Dorn was not going to the OLTL 2.0 version, I would've suggested him as a Bill Horton recast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 I would love them to bring Kristen back too. If Eileen Davidson wouldn't come back then what do you all think of Catherine Hickland in the role of Kristen?? I think she would be awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 What about Noelle Beck as a Melissa Horton recast?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted September 29, 2011 Author Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Hell to the no. She wasn't Lily, and she sure as anything isn't Melissa. Lisa Trusel would probably come back. She's been coming back for guest appearances for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
