1) She knows Cutter, just like Jessica did

2) She works for Blair at Shelter, Blair knows Jessica needs a job

3) Jwow(w) = Jess

Pay better atttention.

SHE IS NOT A JESSICA RECAST!!!! I think Nikki will already have gotten the bartending job at Shelter offscreen before we the audience will be introduced to the character onscreen, and she would've already met Cutter and already have started dating him offscreen right after she was hired by Blair and Cutter too!

They offered Terri Conn a lot of money for Aubrey and Cutter to anchor the show as the #1 frontburner couple. She said no so instead they brought in Jenni Farley and said Aubrey went back to her natural color.

Ok Is Nikki that Michelle Character that in the sides has a fatal attraction cause the guy she [!@#$%^&*] drops her like a hot potato

Nikki = Niki

Coincidence? This dude wrote the Ice Princess, THERE ARE NO COINCIDENCES.

She's Viki's new daughter. Deal with it.

It's like having The Wrecked Center back.

I'm pretty sure we were both funnier and probably thinner back then. All our traffic now is Asian spam.

I really don't think there's much to JWoww's role other than the Wendi Mercury sort of role - flirtatious bartender occasionally getting into hijinks with the contract players. I can't be fussed about it.

That's not true! PP actually offered TC to be on the OLTL reboot during their first attempt that failed, and she turned them down, but PP never asked her back during their second successful attempt.

Judith Light talking about OLTL

http://www.frontiersla.com/Features/Exclusive-Interviews/story.aspx?ID=1926532

A few weeks ago, the internet was abuzz again with posting the clips and scenes of the 34th anniversary of the ultimate soap opera performance of you as Karen Wolek in the Daytime Emmy winning courtroom scene on One Life to Live from 1979! What do you think about that performance, when you look back at it today?
I think dynamically for the culture, as we were talking about before, what it demonstrates is the need to have the courage to come out. When people see that they are moved by it, because against all odds, against every secret, against ever knowing that she will be rejected by her community, her husband, her friends, everyone in her life just about, she knows that she has to tell the truth about what she had done. And in doing so, it sets her free.

I think at a deep profound level which we all know and can feel, there is that oneness and connectedness. Karen’s omission on the witness stand is an ionic moment, because everyone understands that at a very deep profound level. It’s not only that performance; it’s what the moment in time symbolizes … something that everyone can recognize as a kind of bravery to support a friend that simply has to be done. It doesn’t just free the friend; it frees the person who was doing it, as well. You also have to understand, that was a year and a half of putting every piece of that story in place. When I came on OLTL they said to me, “We want to do the story from the movie Belle de Jour with Catherine Deneuve.” It was the story of this woman who was a prostitute during the day and was married to this man, and that was her life. They said, “What do you think of this story?” I said, “I think it’s brilliant.”

So they carefully laid in the pieces of that, and you have to look at the level of writing! People say, “Ech, Soap Operas!” Look at what they created! I believe it is one of TV Guide’s Top 100 Moments in Television. It is for the depth of the story, the writing of the story, the year-and-a-half of placing it in real time, and then having the courtroom scene being the culmination of it. I think that is why people still relate to it.

The show that gave you your start One Life to Live was canceled in 2011, and went off the air in January of 2012; only it has a second life to live! One Life is coming back online with all new episodes on April 29. What are your thoughts that his iconic soap is literally coming back from the dead?
I think it is so fantastic, and I am so happy for everyone. I am not just happy for the people on the show, because it was something that they had devoted themselves to for such a long time, but also the fact that the fans are the ones who really demanded it! They were the ones that put themselves on the line and put themselves out there, and they got what they wanted and what they deserved. It makes me so happy. You want for people to want what they have longed for, and what they have been devoted to. This is a demonstration of the power of the people.

wasn't she originally hinted at coming back at the end of OLTL??

Thanks for sharing the interview.

your welcome

She was asked. I was told she turned it down due to story, where they were going to put her with frickin' Terri Conn (Aubrey/Christine Karr), implying that she might have been Katrina Karr's kid after all. I couldn't blame her for saying no to that. Then OLTL sort of subtly dissed her in the last couple weeks by having David name-drop her as being too good for some project, which I thought was tacky of them.
