I mean this as no disrespect to Krista T, but she didn't strike me as a chemistry magnet and I think that is why any attempts at pairings (Rick, Kurt, Rusty, Frank) never really took off. Although I will say I thought she and Frank had a nice rapport. I say this because Kimberly Simms as Mindy had great chemistry with Roger, Mallet, & Nick.. oddly even had some chemistry/rapport with Rusty.. yet didn't have any with Rick (Barbara Crompton's Mindy was the only Mindy that had chemistry with Rick..imho).
I think Anderson and hubby tried to make Rusty/Mindy & Johnny/Roxy (inherited) happen.. but the best pairing from their 9 month stint was Chelsea/Phillip.
I was browsing through some May 1987 episodes and I was surprised that Sarah Shayne was offered a job as a patient advocate at Cedars where Ed talked about Bert being the previous one while Sarah said she had heard good things about Bert. And that she and Lillian had a lot of scenes with one another in regards to Hawk and also working together at Cedars.
The one thing I noticed about this particular regime was that Reva/Josh were a couple, but KZ was pregnant and was off for some weeks due to maternity leave while a lot of the focus went to Roxy/Johnny, Dinah/Cam, Vanessa/Ross, and a lot of focus on Lillian. It is interesting that Lillian gets decent focus and story of her own when Long isn't head-writer.
And seeing Will in June 1987 episodes with him acting shady makes me wonder if Anderson had a plan for him that changed once Long came back and added Sonni/Solita to the mix?
