not sure if this should be in the spoiler forum or not

Valentini confided to TVLine that “legal issues, in terms of the Prospect Park deal [that almost gave OLTL an online home]” were among the reasons why Melissa Archer has yet to at least cameo.

I wonder what that is about. Why would that be an obstacle to MA but not Michael Easton or KDP?

That makes no sense to me. I call bullsh-t.

I'm thinking they paid big bucks to buy out the right to use John or whatever since he's the most important character after all. Not sure how they can explain around using KdP for guest stints but not MA, though, other than they only had so much money to throw around and decided MA wasn't as important. They used her image though a month or two back so I'm not sure how this all works.

actually I read there are contract issues and that's why they can only use Kassie for short stints

I'm really disappointed that RC/FV seem to have no use at all for Leslie Charleson.

Didn't FL sign with PP too? They had no problem bringing her on board either.

I honestly don't know why people believe anything FV or RC says.

yeah but it was a short stint as well

Yea but how could there be contract issues? The actors didn't even sign with PP since the union deal fell through. Or is that wrong?

I think the whole thing is bullshit and RC/FV are just making excuses because in reality, they have no interest in Natale or MA anymore.

I thought Kassie didn't want a contract with GH.

+1. I'd settle for 1 or 2 appearances a month.

Thank you. You'd think these guys were the biggest truth tellers out there when both along with most other soap execs and writers are pretty much known BSer's and liars. I guess if they make some feel better, more power to them.

Same. Garin Wolfe's GH sure was boring, but at least we got to see Monica again. And it was amazing how well she gelled right back into the groove of the show. I thought for sure RC would write for her, since he always seemed to write for ES, RS, etc. on OLTL. Even if the writing wasn't always great, at least they were getting something.

She's become the new Robin Strasser of Twitter. "I don't want a contract, I want to stay out east with my family" to "THEY TOOK EVERYONE WITH THEM BUT ME FROWN FACE DEPRESSED EMOTICON" to "I'm so grateful I got to do the scenes I did, it was fun while it lasted" to "I'M NOT COMING BACK UNLESS YOU BEG THEM TO BRING ME BACK" to "I'm so blessed to be back with Roger this week, T&B forever!" to "SERIOUSLY THOUGH BIOTCHES IT'S NOT A WHEN I'M COMING BACK IT'S AN IF"

You get the picture. You'd think she'd feel a tad more secure that they will ask her back for stints. I think she knew the whole time that she'd be back, she was just drumming up attention for herself.

I want Ilene Kristen in a wig as NuBobbie.
