“@soapslover: @KassieDePaiva when does oltl start filming” #OLTLbegins shooting 3/18!!

Yep this. Anyone can say "this person said this and this and that" doesn't mean it's true nor does it make it confirmation of anything. I haven't seen anything anywhere where TSJ said he'd be willing to return even short term, until then I don't see why we should have to take the word of this person as gospel

I do think he'll be back to wrap up the two Todd's stuff and nothing more

[PeterAKer]

As it stands right now officially is that TSJ's Fan Club President Debby O'Connor said on his behalf that he has not received any contact from Prospect Park and she also swore that he doesn't lie to her.

I hope we get some more casting news next week as all we know is that Set's are being built and placed in the Studio and the cast will arrive for meetings/rehearsals and sorting out dressing rooms etc...

Dude, all due respect, history is going against you on Victor not turning up in some form or another.

Before TSJ left the show, Ron Carlivati and co. planned for Victor and Todd to continue their rivalry on OLTL for years to come. They had no intention of writing him out permanently. They also planned ahead of time to resurrect him to ensure that. This is all from TPTB's own mouths.

They also planned to resolve the OLTL cliffhanger on GH and reveal that Victor was alive. This is from Frank Valentini last fall.

While GH's plans may have been sidetracked, I have no doubt Victor Jr. will be seen alive and well, and no matter who ends up playing him, I have no doubt he will end up being a long-term character again on OLTL.

I say all that without my being a big fan of his. I think the character is fascinating, but as "Todd" he devolved into scum and I was happy to see him "die" for a while. That said, his potential future on the canvas is too massive to ignore. And these are not rumors or spec, they're fact from the personnel's mouths. Which leads me to believe Victor will most certainly be back for good sooner or later.

It is always vastly entertaining to read TSJ's Todd called scum compared to how remorseless RH been playing Todd since 2001.

Oh well I do agree TSJ misled fans in the past so I wouldn't be surprised if he's keeping a return secret again. I suspect this will all leak once PP starts taping OLTL.

[Vee]

And it's equally entertaining watching you try to pick a fight to defend your favorite character by talking about anything but the topic of the argument, and instead engaging in a forced contest of false equivalency best left to the experts in the Republican Party. Lady, it's the weekend, I ain't got time. And it's just my opinion which neither of us can do anything about. So go kick up that dirt somewhere else.

[MontyB]

Well, you had it right the first time. That version of Todd needed to be gone.

Anyway, I agree with you. I cannot see Victor not being part of the canvas.

[Graham]

Anyone have an umbrella for all this shade?

[TeamEric]

You're projecting, Vee. Picking fights and driving away long-time posters is your 24/7 calling, not mine. Btw, he's not even my favorite character I just find the double standards employed blatantly ridiculous - come to think of it much like Fox News blowhards so you fit right in there. LOL!

Discussion topic: Trevor St. John

He might be coming back to OLTL, or he might not be. Some people want Trevor St. John to come back and some people don't.

End of discussion topic.

[Cheap21]

Thank you. Frankly, I don't want to know if or if he isn't coming back or would or whatever. Id rather it be a surprise. Moving on....

[proteus]

So basically according to you, any commentary from TSJ about him reprising Victor is false, lies, & hearsay.

But, someone saying that TSJ won't be back is official, confirmed, truth. Got it.

FYI. You don't know anything Debby said was on TSJ's behalf. Those comments floating around the Net were from a private facebook group. Not TSJ making some kind of statement,
