Always hated that Annie never killed Cassie!

She still can. She can head to GH....lol....cant stand the actress or character of Carly.....lol...or is it Cassie...lol

EW's a mainstream entertainment site, so they're more likely to mention Lost, as that was a well known primetime show. We're lucky they didn't mention Titus.

Love Watros.

But poor thing.

My thoughts exactly. She'll probably be GREAT but she is connected to characters I really couldn'tb care less about.

Honestly, virtually every Lost castmember seemed to get DUIs or under the influence charges out there in Hawaii at one time or another, so I don't take any reports of Watros in particular having an alcohol issue too seriously unless I get more information. But I do have to wonder how her career plunged so far so fast as to have to come back here.

It would be one thing if Cynthia Watros was doing a soap out of love for the genre (I would've loved to see her on the new AMC or OLTL) while still keeping up her new career - which is apparently why she generously did the Vicky fill-in gig on AW while she was taking off in nighttime, despite her agents' apprehension - but that career now seems to have disappeared. Time was she was everywhere in primetime, and a very skilled, in-demand actress, particularly in sitcom stuff. What happened?

Great scoop for Y&R, probably for Watros too if her primetime career is indeed on the skids.

She always had an annoying voice, and her look was somewhat off from the usual casting. She might have just fallen out of favor and never quite got back in.

Perhaps the simple truth of the matter is that Daytime is where she belongs. Some just thrive more in daytime than in primetime. Contrast her situation with her lost Castmate Michelle Rodriguez.

Michelle Rodriguez, while no Eva Mendes, has managed to do movies (granted most have been Fast & Furious sequels), after her DUI incident and Rodriguez has had many more run ins with police than Cynthia.

I thought Annie was a really interesting, bizarre, fun character and Watros definitely made her mark. FOJ or not, I think it could be a very good thing for Y&R, provided they write a good storyline and great character for her (a big 'IF' on this show for the last several years).

Y&R has been hurting for strong female character for some years now--and I don't mean just a whining, screeching psycho female, although, come to think of it, that may be precisely where her character ends up.

Hope it works out anyway.

I have a hunch this might be the case. And being 45 during a pilot season that prefers 24 year olds.

Wow. I never thought I'd see her back on soap. Oh well, a girl's gotta pay the bills.

Of course she's come back to daytime. She's old for Hollywood and couldn't maintain career momentum after 'Lost'. She will be great with whatever part she does, but the writing won't support her one bit.

I like her but she will be involved with extremely boring characters

She’ll play a character named Kelly who will have a profound influence on the lives of several characters, including Billy, Victoria and Chloe.

In other words, she'll be a pyscho

ugh can't stand this actress her acting annoys me its the reason I could never get into Lost. hope its a short stay

Oh goody! I loved crazy nurse Annie, as far as wacked-out troublemakers go. When people were speculating about a Phyllis recast, I thought she was the best suggestion. But I don't think the character Phyllis is really needed at this time.

I figured it would be Cynthia... love her and excited to see her rebut on Y&R.

Did everybody forget that she was awesome on The Drew Carey Show?
