+1 on don't worry about Agnes. I saw her speak and got to chat with her 1:1 for a few magical moments when she was honored at this event in Boston a few months after AMC went off and right before the end of OLTL. She seemed quite frail (but so beautiful) in that her children were all over holding her arm, helping with steps etc. BUT WHEN she started talking about her shows? She remembered stories in great detail from Carla/Clara on OLTL to Bianca coming out, was cracking jokes about how PP had talked about moving the shows to Canada. I could have listened to her talk for hours. I know things can shift quickly with age but the woman was sharp as a tack, witty and knew the history of her shows. I definitely think she is at in her to be a creative force for these shows and I think her influence is totally showing on AMC and not OLTL, proving that some things never change.

Random comment, but I was trying to figure out why I hate the AMC opening and although I wish the theme had no words, it's the poses of the actors! The more seasoned actors look natural, but Lea, Cassandra, Jane, Celia, Petey and Miranda are all making awkward, unnatural faces. I wonder how many takes they got. It's weird that the openings for both shows aren't more dynamic.

That was actor Daniel Hartley playing Pete's friend Dylan Wilder today. This was AMC's first recast since actor Jake Boyd was originally cast in the role. No explanation given for the recast

    • The Hollands obviously had long term story in place for Lee/Caroline/Bobby etc but when the Pollocks arrived they quickly wrapped it up with the new diagnosis and sent them packing. That could have been it for Lee but I think the Elmans brought Lee/Scotty back in their short stint.  Somebody must have regretted dumping Lee.I'm sure Peter Hansen was happy to get the call to return.
    • You have to stop and think: was Estelle the mother to all five children?  How many Mrs. Kendalls existed? Linda Cook played Aileen Kendall in flashbacks, but, at the time, we thought she was the only prior Mrs. Kendall.  It seemed that Aileen’s name was changed to Estelle when Domini Blythe came on.  But Lloyd (Peter Haskell) is said to be going through a divorce when he’s introduced (and when he’s pursuing Sunny).  To me, Aileen is Estelle, and the mother to all the children. The wife Lloyd is divorcing is inconsequential.  Wendy’s fate is never resolved. 
    • Oh you are probably right. I thought Marland brought him back but that must have been an interim writer. Tex somebody...?
    • Do you have Days Breakdown list for Thurs 22 May 25 please?
    • I just hope it doesn’t become a constant thing. Like with Days, it’s funny the first time, but after the 475th time, it isn’t anymore. 
    • Marland killed them? I thought that was someone else.
    • Jibre/Jacob is moving to the top of my list. Such a likeable presence. Give Jacob/Naomi a home set! Ted's jacket ... Stating that Derek/Ashley have been together 2 years kinda undermines the story. If it had been say 6 months, then problems might be arising-but after 2 years?? The ATWT reference was cute-but of course Dr Nicole only knew about the show through patients-God forbid she ever watched it herself! Might have been cuter had she said she got hooked through patients and ended up taping it herself and watching it at home to unwind.
    • I hate it too but people casualy posting it so openly is dumb as hell. Especially when it’s known that they are hunting them down. 
    • Wasn't Taylor Miller still playing Nina during the period that Devon was on the show? She was also written out around the time Julia Barr left and Brooke was recast. I wonder if they brought her back because being the doomed non-Nina love interest to Cliff was something they didn't want to give to a woman they cared about, and they didn't want to create yet another Kennicott relation. Then having her for the Lynn Carson story also made sense because if there was intense viewer backlash, she could easily be written out.
