I know about hispanics. Have a few hispanic family members. . However on the show it was noted that Sabrina's last name is Santiago and she obviously has dark hair, dark eyes and tan skin. While Serena was blond haired, blue eyed, and pale skinned. On what soap did a character ever go from looking like this

To looking like this?

Have you never known a child actor to be recast/soras'd and look totally different? I admitted that I was wrong...but I don't think it was a stupid assertion. She could have been married to a Santiago. But it's not unheard of...this is fiction, anything is possible on a soap...and where is Serena's glasses in that first picture?

I know Sabrina is not Serena and I'm saying I never expected her to be.

Wait - what are we talking about?

Serena is not Sabrina.

And I said that it breifly crossed my mind but I quickly figured I was wrong...but I don't thing it was stupid as this is a soap and nothing is out of the realm of possibility.

None of those examples you posted are extreme. And I've actually seen a few of blonde children grow up to be brunettes

Okay...if you say so...all I am saying is that it was not out of the real of possibility.

Sarah on OLTL really flip-flopped from being a Tina-looking blonde to a Cord-looking brunette.

Changing hair color isnt the issue. Its that she'd be a different race! IA that people who expected latina Sabrina Santiago to be the caucasion daughter of Scott Baldwin and Dominique, were REALLY asking for them to pull quite a stretch there. Ellie stood more of a chance of being her and its simply bc the girl is white like the character should be, regardless of hair color (bc that can be dyed)

...and then back again.

Y'all gonna be shocked as hell when Serena turns out to be Felix. I'm just saying.

Yep! And speaking of hair color Noah Newman changes hair color with every single recast so I don't know why his pic is up there. I remember him for the longest while as a brunette young boy.

If Sabrina had the last name Hardy and her hair straight no one would think she was hispanic. She looks no different than any of the other brunette's on that show. Not skin color nor facial features.

Noah Newman has never had black hair nor skin this brown...matter of fact, I don't see much difference between him and that cop when they sahre scenes...they look like they could be brothers.

That would be a hoot.

The girl looks like a latina. Even if you dont beleive so, so what? She's already established to be one. The speculation that she might in fact be an established caucasion character from the past seems pointless to me, since that clearly isnt the case and more of a fan pipe dream

Ye sit was established that Sabrina is latina and she doesn't look like any of the Hardy family and neither does Kristina.

Did you read the entire thread? I stated that i was wrong in my thinking that she would be revealed as someone other than what she appeared. Yet people keep harping on it. I was merely pointing out there after that it wasn't as far fetched as some might think. That is all.
