I am really happy about this news! I want Liz Keifer "full time" not just as a recurring character who just gives people some advices. I can't invest in a character who has no purpose.

Blake can be a character without Ross. It's because of this equation that they found nothing to give her.

I wonder if they're going to let him go.

I don't think so. They're doing this for the viewers and it works with me so it's not too little too late.

Then, I wonder if they're planning to cast the twins and James too. Maybe the reason they're putting them back on contract is for SORASing their children.

I hope this is true. Hopefully they have good story to bring them back full-time. I still think they should bring back Yvonne Wright and finally explore the Mel/Rick/Beth triangle. Rick could help bring Beth back to "normal".

Hopefully Bradley Cole is leaving. With any luck the writers will also send his character, and the character of Cassie off canvas - even if not together.

I can gladly accept them shipping out Jeffrey, but I am really liking Nicole Forester and Cassie these days. I'd love to see Cassie paired with Frank or even Josh for dramatic effect.

Tammy needs her mom stirring up the [!@#$%^&*]. And I would hate for the show to lose another long-running character, even if it is a recast.

Seriously. I think it sucks that they let JVD slip away and didn't even have the chance to write a proper exit for Ross, but Blake and Ross were one of those couples -- for some reason -- that the show couldn't seem to write story for as a happy couple, and a breakup seemed out of the question. At least a death for Ross would keep Blake an active force in Springfield. Maybe Ross could even have an (obviously!) offscreen plane crash and be presumed dead, so there would be an open avenue for bringing the character back if need be.

This is great news! I really like Michael O'Leary and I LOVE Beth Chamberlain (I know most of you think Beth is being ruined right now but this is a soap..she can be repaired..and BC is good at playing the !@#$%^&*]). I agree..they need to put Ross in a coma or something because Liz Keifer is just *there*...that's the main thing holding back Blake from getting a real story.

Agreed. I think I was intrigued by Jeffrey for only a week but he is not a character I really care much about. Cut him loose. Nicole Forester and Cassie would still get tons of good material nontheless.

Dare I agree with you? Nicole Forester's Cassie is so much more fun to watch than Laura Wright's portrayal. Cassie annoys me a lot less with Forester in the role. Maybe it's the writing.

Either way, I find that it all worked for the best. I love Wright as Cassie on GH and Forester is tolerable as GL's Cassie.

I should also mention that I'd love to see a recast of Eleni. I wasn't really watching when she left Springfield, but maybe Marina's failed relationships and bad taste in men has to do with her mommy issues. Does she have any? What about Frank? How does he feel about Eleni? Does he still love her?

Would Eleni return to Springfield a different woman?! In what ways?

I think Eleni returning to the canvas would add alot of drama to current characters. Not to mention her opinion on her daughter dating her ex-husband and the man that could have been her father.

I'd like to see Eleni return on a short term basis if GL had the budget. I didn't like Jennifer Roszell until her most recent 2001-2002 stint when she was much more !@#$%^&*]y and firey than before. I'd also like to see Marina recast with someone more interesting and more like Aubrey Dollar's spunky version. Heather Lindell would be my choice. She could totally play Eleni's daughter.

This Marina has always sucked, I truly believe it would be better to keep Marina #2, sure she was green, but I thought she was growing and perfect for the role.

I also think they need to recast Lizzie again. Something about all their recent recasts seem so cheap and just thrown together. I think they need someone whos much more girly, classy and I want more blond in the hair. Just not feeling nuLizzie.

BTW, on the subject of contracts, I hate that they finally wanna give Blake a story after Ross is gone....ridiculous!

SOW is reporting that both Liz Keifer and Beth Chamberlin turned down their contract offers. GL sources say they didn't want to be locked down with contracts only offering 1 day a week gaurantees. Michael O'leary is still considering signing a contract.

Good for them. That was a really paltry offer considering how long those two have been on the show. What were they going to do one day a week anyway? Become set pieces? Oops...that's what they are now. I forgot. My appologies.

SOW is full of crap right now..they've also reported that Tom Pelphrey is leaving this summer when TP has said that he signed a 3-year contract so I'm taking their "news" with a grain of salt.

Liz Keifer...I can see but if Beth Chamberlain was told she'd be on only once a week, they were obviously lying because she's almost on everyday and getting the most work out of everyone involved in her storyline.

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.
