except she already signed a 3 year contract last year. Her money is already budgeted out. She coming back isn't taking away from anyone's check

Then release her at the end of her next cycle, because I can tell you now this ain't gonna work.

No argument here

I think he's giving Bobbie an "exit" so we're not left wondering "Is Bobbie still in town?". She goes back to Seattle and comes back the next time Carly or one of her kids are dying or whatever.

I don't see a good reason not to keep her around on recurring, is all.

I'd rather she leave now than have people ask over and over "Shouldn't Bobbie be here for this???" when Carly gets a hangnail.

I can accept Bobbie getting an "exit" because she didn't even get that in 2010 and at least it gives her fans some kind of solace.

It's just a really big, stupid decision to make because of all the returns Bobbie is the one character that has slipped into 2013 GH like she never left and her presence makes sense for the show given whose on the canvas. It's just such an error.

I very much doubt we'll see her return and that's a damn shame. Well, at least Jackie Zeman will have qualified for her SAG health insurance thanks to this stint.

I would rather the character get an exit than be left wondering why we aren't seeing her. That actually is more frustrating and if she does come back again we'll be told we'll see her.

Glad Brenda is sticking around indefinitely at this point! Happy for Scotty and Lucy also! Ron Carlivati is a fan of so many of the same things I was a fan of growing up with GH. Can relate to this "soft spot" he mentioned for Brenda. I can tell he loved the 90s era of GH. That's why I believe him when he says Bobbie will be back.

Well that [!@#$%^&*] ruined my day.

Kevin is also coming back. This is only part one of the interview. They talk about the story wrote for Lindstrom when he gets back in the 2nd half.

Also, Bobbie will come back every now and then. So, that's good. Even though I did want her full time.

When do we get to read the second part of this interview? I really don't understand why they not keep Bobbie around. I don't think it is too much to ask to give her 3 shows a month.

Yes, I would have loved for Bobbie to stay. I really think that Laura, Scotty, Bobbie and Lucy are good returns which should be made permanent.
