I recently started to watch the show again after finding out that Kristen was coming back.

I think that the Jenn/Nicole/Daniel story would have worked a little better if it were Billie instead of Jennifer in the story. I could totally see Billie/Nicole being rivals.. with Kate interfering due to the fact that Billie is her daughter, she used to date Daniel, and she hates Nicole with a passion. Jennifer could have just been the supportive friend to Billie/Daniel while still bickering with Nicole at the same time.

I wonder if Kristen/Billie/Jennifer will have scenes since they were once the 3 muskateers. Did the friendships carry over once Jennifer and Billie were recast circa 95/96?

IDA. I think the story works better the way it is with Jennifer. What motivation would Billie have? She doesnt have the history with Daniel, which is a driving force for this. Jen and Daniel dated and while I cant say it was really love, they did have deep feelings for him. Compound out with the fact that she just lost Jack and felt helpless to that, its understandable why she'd insert herself into Daniel's life to help save him. And she already didnt like Nicole bc of their fights and run ins during the mayor campaign. Jen has all the motivation to go after Nicole and Billie used in her place would feel like it would be coming out of left field

Im also hoping we get to see some scenes between Kristen/Billie/Jennifer. I hope they dont waste time especially since

John is soooooooooooooooooo painful to watch, he's so lifeless, that is the WORST acting I've ever seen. No charisma, he's old so he's pointless, after all these years his lack of talent is finally showing. You have older characters like Vic and Stefano and they are charming and you just enjoy watching them. I can honestly say I'd rather they just replace John with Roman at this point, Roman, YES Roman is more enjoyable than John at this stage of the game.

I agree! I tried so hard to watch his scenes with Kate, but I just can't. I tried to get excited to see he and Kristen together, but I know I won't be able to bear it. His voice annoys me. Roman's just as bad though, so I really can't decide whose worse. I wish John had either stayed dead in 2007 or stayed robotic or whatever he was in 2008, that suited him much more.

Lol...Yes it's the voice! And the whisper talk. You have Kate there and she was so refreshing. John and his sniff talk, trying to be cool is just a joke! He didn't use to be this bad, I think he found a "new" way of acting. Someone needs to sit him down and have tone the overacting down, he's been back a year enough of the bs!

I think Drake changed his acting style/voice when he came back as Robo-John in January 2008. I wish he would go back to his 90's voice where it wasn't so deep and slow talking. His voice was more lively back then.

    • He joined Julian in Bermuda when he getting a divorce from Ivy. And, was the one who tricked Theresa and Julian in to believing that they had gotten married there. That would be nice.  That was such a good book, and it was too bad that the show retconned it so much. I still have my copy somewhere.
    • Instead of Febreze, Eva pulled a few tissues of Puffs and cried into them. Hayley comes in with a pack of Always and is like "Well, Bill turns out I'm not pregnant." Andre and Derek sharing a bottle of Pepto after eating Ashley's cooking. Vernon and Anita drinking up their Metamucil. 
    •   I liked the actress who played Tina. She was not the typical soap hire. I hadn't thought of her in many years until I saw a Spauldingfield video of her. It makes sense if they were planning to make her Frank's daughter as she was tied to the Coopers and nothing else was done with her beyond singing and the relationship with Marcus that Rauch never cared about. David was hurt by Monti Sharp leaving the role. I don't blame Monti for leaving, as he was getting less and less to do, but Russell Curry was a very generic actor was too old for the part. Yes, black don't crack, but he was nearly 40. When David returns at the end of the decade they cast an actor who was a little too young, which just shows how little interest the show had in the character or black characters in general (and random recasting would return with the Boudreauxs). Marcus is a character who got a lot of buzz early on and then the show lost interest (again).  Anyway, if you stay watching, be warned that the Hart/Dinah/Roger stuff gets worse and worse. Luckily you don't have the same lengthy ties to the show so it may be OK for you. It made me feel a bit sick at the time.

    • I just find her obnoxious and I need somebody to start checking her (other than Bill) without couching it in you’re so strong and wonderful and Bill did you so wrong. Even Anita pulls punches with her. Her personality would definitely rub some people the wrong way and I hope once the canvas evolves beyond Dupreeland, she gets some adversaries who aren’t villains or 90-lb. weaklings like Haley.
    • Wow.... Anita and Dani are the ultimate symbol of mean girls.   I hate to tell this to Dani... but Eva's ability to do hair is a much more coveted job and skill than Dani's modeling.   I doubt Dani could cut it if she lost her money and was truly forced to start over from square 1.  
    • -- That scene was a mess because of Sheila. Why would Bill go To that pizza dump? And why would he tolerate Sheila sitting at his table for even 5 seconds? -- Also a mess? Liam's dialogue. Telling $Bill how much he admires and respects him was hilarious! Then it went on! "Your presence, your guidance and influence...you made me a man. You made me THIS man." Jesus.    
    • Not FOOTBALLERS' WIVES!!!! TASTE, DARLING. LOVE IT. Cool!!!
    • I can't help but think that this was a Ron/Jamey plot, that Paula/Jeanne just decided to run with.  Hopefully, it'll be written better than what we've had to endure previously. Roman runs it, and she helps. Interesting. I felt a similar way every time Ben called Charlie, 'Chuck'
