Members ChitHappens Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 They are leaving for different reasons, so I can see BB trying to stick it to Moss. SF has probably been talked into staying for quite some time. The time has come for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 She probably just wanted to stay for the anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 It had to happen at some point, though I don't feel as though Stephanie has run her course. I hope they still trot her out on holidays and bring her back for limited runs. I think that could work rather well for everyone involved and I could see it happening down the road. I wish her well. In my opinion, she's the finest thespian in daytime, and certainly the queen bee of her generation of actresses (that are still working in daytime). There is a unique blend of thoughtfulness and realness that Flannery brought to her roles that is rare of an actress working in any medium right now. The quality she brings to her performances will be missed. And of course, I'm gonna miss the hell out of the Stephanie/Brooke relationship, by far the most interesting relationship on the show. I hope someone like Patrick Mulcahey pens her final episode, or rather their final episode together, someone who really taps into characters and their relationships through dialogue.

Members Ann_SS Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I hope that Stephanie gets to give Brooke one last fond farewell slap. LOL! I'll miss my girl, but best wishes to Susan. What a talented actress! She is one of the few that ever graced daytime tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MrQuartermaine Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Well, Bill Bell did create the role of Stephanie for Susan Seaforth Hayes (Julie, DAYS). I could see Hayes on B&B, and also Elizabeth Hubbard (Lucinda, ATWT). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Elizabeth Hubbard?! I'm drooling!!!!! I would not recast Stephanie, but there has to be a place for Ms Hubbard. Still drooling here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sapounopera Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Could Bill Spencer's mother be on her way to L.A.? Too bad they killed off Beth Logan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I love Liz Hubbard, but she can definitely be a hot bubbling mess when she wants to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I really dont think Susan Flannery needs to be replaced with another older actress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I don't think it would be a replacement - she's a very distinct actress and Stephanie is a very distinct character. They need some type of strong older presence on the show, especially since most of the 40/50something characters are so weak and Eric is useless. I can't see Liz on B&B, because she's such a quirky actress, but I'd still love to see her. I wish Beverlee McKinsey were still alive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted August 20, 2012 Author Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Well Kim Zimmer wanted on B&B at one time right? Now's her chance to give a phone call to Brad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Where's Daytimefan to suggest B&B steal Lauren Koslow from DAYS to reprise Margo Lynley? Wouldn't actually be a bad thing though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 LK needs to stay on Days. She's one of the BEST things about the show and it will go downhill without her. Id rather she stay there than ome back here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Erika Slezak might not be a bad choice - she's a bit hammy but she delivers the drama, and I could see her being a good fit in a darker role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I just think said actress would seem so out of place bc there are no peers her age to interact with outside of McCook who is barely there as is (and most likely next to go). What Stephanie and Eric have is their history and connections to the characters which keeps them viable even with little to do. A new character, not so much, especially since the show has shifted in a different direction a long time ago. If anything, Id rather see them bump up Pam to account for the loss of Stephanie. Its too bad Patrick Duffy left bc I liked Steven and Pam and wouldnt have minded seeing them in actual stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
