Why do I feel like the character in question could be Natalia? Shannon Kane never outright said she wasn't doing it, I think she's retweeted things about it a few times on Twitter. And she lives in NYC. I could be wrong but you never know.

EDIT: Look what I just found!

Call All My Children up and close a deeeaaaaaal

If the filming schedule allows for flexible schedules for other projects, I think most of them would be open to it at least, especially if they're based on the East Coast.

Angela, does it sounds like the character in question could be Natalia? Is anything said about her personality or relationship to Jesse?

For me, the "deal breaker" on that spoiled story will be about how the woman in question is written. If she's smart and strong and fighting back, it could be interesting. If they make her a typical soap damsel, it will be...unfortunate.

ETA: Dear Lawd, don't even tease me with the thought of seeing my beloved Shannon Kane/Natalia again. And in a real story? *faints*

My three soap goddesses of the last few years are Amanda Setton, Shannon Kane and Shenaz Treasury. And now I might see two of the three of them again? You may faint but I definitely will. Honorary mention to Melissa Claire Egan. Goddamn, was she fantastic. She just wasn't really 'on' the show by the end so I didn't include her.

I'm not familiar with Setton's or Treasury's work although I do remember seeing the excitement around both actresses and their characters. But you and I are likethis when it comes to SK and Missy Claire.

True but this is the chance to break that bad habit. These reboots are the opportunity to learn from mistakes. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

What I enjoyed most about AMC until McTavish's last exit is the show was always so filled with all different level of bitches. I don't mean bitches with a bad connotation. I loved it. Soaps by nature were built more for a female audience and I loved that the females on this show were mostly shown as fierce beasts.

Ew.

Forget the race issue for a minute (which most people love to do even though it's absolutely significant but I won't even get into that right now), if this is true then we're still basing stories on the sexualization of young women. Actual young women, their (alleged) target demo, don't want to see this. Gay men don't want to see this (we (well, I do) like our women strong). Hell, normal straight guys don't want to see this!

It's really maddening. You can write stories without dehumanizing women. If this is what we're getting what is the point off watching? This isn't progressive at all.

I really REALLY hope these sides are just to gauge the actors ability to play various emotions and not their intention with the storylines.

    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83. 
    • If the show ever chooses to show any flashbacks of major Ted scenes, the Ted/Eva, Ted/Kat, and Ted/Nicole scenes would need to be re-filmed with nuTed. Since there have been hardly any Ted/Martin scenes with the CurrentTed, they have avoided the difficulty of doing recreated flashbacks with nuTed for scenes with Martin.  The only one would be Martin punching Ted after the anniversary reveal (unless there's something in the next few episodes). I agree with other posters that the fact that we barely saw CurrentTed and Martin interact, makes it less impactful to viewers to see Martin's outrage at the reveal. 
    • This makes me think of that famous quote from COOL HAND LUKE,  "What we've got here is failure to communicate." I did not bring up "apparently" to try to get across either truth or validity, but doubt. If I had been sure, I would have said something entirely different. But, I'm not trying to argue, I hear you & I will comply. Besides that, I will endeavor to word things differently. I am never against trying to improve. 
    • That’s been my main issue with his response. It didn’t feel that earned by what came before. Definitely needed to see more of the Richardsons as a full family unit prior to all of this.
    • Bingo! I thought the exact same thing. Martin's anger feels so out of place, because we've hardly seen him interact with his parents. Vernon and him have more of a father/son relationship and we've seen their dynamic more fully play out. While obviously Ted and Marton are father and son, it felt a bit empty because we haven't really seen them bond or truly connect in any scenes.
    • Leslie inferred over 20 years ago, so Eva and Kat are over 20 at least 
    • As it happens, 40 years ago this week, ABC and CBS revealed their 1985-86 fall schedules. NBC revealed theirs the week before. ABC's would end up changing. The original plan for Tuesdays was to have Diff'rent Strokes lead the night, with He's the Mayor at 8:30, followed by Who's the Boss at 9, Growing Pains at 9:30, and Moonlighting at 10. There was some surprise over MacGruder & Loud not getting renewed, but it was considered part of Aaron Spelling's declining influence at the network. Yes, Dynasty was still a hit (for a while longer), but Aaron's shows steadily took up less and less of the schedule. Fall 1984: Seven hours, five of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, Glitter, Matt Houston, T.J. Hooker, The Love Boat, Finder of Lost Loves; MacGruder & Loud aired at midseason, by which time Glitter was gone.). Fall 1985: Five hours, two of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Hollywood Beat, The Love Boat). Fall 1986: Three-and-a-half hours, a half-hour of which was new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Life With Lucy). Fall 1987: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and Hotel; HeartBeat premiered at midseason). Fall-winter 1988: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and HeartBeat). This led to Variety's infamous shady headline in spring 1989: "Aaron's Dynasty Over"
    • I hope for a multi-year renewal, too! This is the only show I've been excited to see the next episode in forever. Considering their demos are quite decent. the initial episodes showed there is still an interest in daytime, and it has helped to boost the rest of the soap line up at times, it should be around for a while.
