Daphne Maxwell Reid IN as the NEW DRUCILLA!

Head-writer Maria Arena Bell was quoted saying: "We are thrilled to welcome Mizz Reid to our cast. While we understand that it will take some serious adjustment for the fans to accept a new face in the role of Dru, they have to understand that we are taking the character in a whiter lighter brighter direction"

On a side note - They could have at least had the courtesy to cast Delta Burke.

Talk about a small world...Daisy Duke's co-star 'John Schneider' and I have the same kindergarten teacher! She's 93 and I still get Xmas cards from her!

I know a writer and perhaps two EPs that are willing to make parodies of each of the casting suggestions in this thread.

All we need is Carlivati/Valentini or Tomlin to switch over to Y&R.

Hehe. Then you must have hated him in his scenes with Liz on GH as she was getting ready for her date with Ric.

Oh, yeah. He struck while the iron was hot and his looks were great.

THIS. You said it better than me. That was what that scene was giving me. From him? I swoon. And I don't think I've ever swoon when it's come to Spinelli though I like their pairing.

I see what you did there. ;)

But let's be real. SPS has been like THIS for THREE DAYS STRAIGHT. THREE DAYS.

I've officially turned on her and need her in jail. Dare I hope that the writers pick up the Kat/Joey thread and she gets her hands on his blackmail material so she can nail SPS to the wall?

Come out here to Cali. ;P That is not high at all. :) I was as shocked to see it as you were that Eva and Izaiah were drinking beer there. I expected them to head to Uptown.

For me, the ideal team would have been Shelley Curtis as EP (w/ Riche as Executive Consultant) and maybe Sheri Anderson and Thom Racina as HW's.

When you've got a character like Leslie, it's best to use that character sparingly. Or else she becomes a complete annoyance to the viewer. Today's episode exemplified that.
Also when you've got a rather spoiled and entitled ingenue (such as Y&R's Lauren Fenmore in the 1980s or BTG's Kat Richardson in 2026), you wanna tone her DOWN from time to time so she doesn't become as tiresome to the audience as she becomes to her enemies on the show. Today's show exemplified that.

I agree about the price of a smash burger not being inexpensive, but that OG price seemed high for the type of establishment it's supposed to be. I mean, they're pretty high.
And I still think showing Eva and Izaiah drinking beer was weird. That makes no sense.

❤️ to both Caseys as well. I could easily ff through Ham Hansis while Roerig and Magnussen were on.
I never realized how many mftv movies Roark has done until yesterday.

Look at today's show. Phyllis and Billy are in their offices, but there's no sense that as any business is being done. There's no sign that anything is happening.
Lauren shows up and is EXCITED that Phyllis has taken over. Huh?
Victoria is waltzing all over town doing nothing but talk about going to Milan to see Summer -- and we know that's not happening.
Nick is popping Smarties like the candy they are while he does the same grimace 7x per episode.
Sally and Audra have a communications company that they talk about over a laptop at Society.
IT'S ALL SUCKAGE.

I am sure the show is out of whack with preemptions, but it felt like a filler, mid week episode to me. It wasn't awful. I was just bored.
Fair enough. Spixie spent so long as a 'quirky' pairing, then were forgotten, and now finally have some depth. It's a shame they made Spinelli so ridiculous when Bradford was front and center because he is clearly capable of playing layers.
