You mean she wasn't already with Stafford?

No, with Stafford she was just a tranny.

Why couldn't she look like this?GinaTognoni.jpg

Perhaps she will again after Y&R fires her and DAYS snaps her up.

What I love most of all Gina wasn't handed this role. She has a great resume with two Emmys and worked JFP before. She screen tested and blew everyone away. I heard it was a riveting screen test. She earned and won it. Most actresses with her experience and resume don't audition for roles in daytime anymore they are handed them. She won it fair and square.

I'm glad GT auditioned for and won the role "fair and square," as you put it, but I don't trust TPTB anymore to know "good" or better when they see it. Otherwise, Cady McClain should be blowing our minds with her take on Kelly.

Meredith Baxter as love interest? :ph34r:

Oh, just what we needed. A love triangle involving Phyllis, Nikki and Maureen. (Sorry, I had to go back and look up Meredith's character's name,)

Gina should've held out for the next "NCIS" spinoff.

Very true, but the character of Kelly was completely unstructured and then it was tailored to fit the actress - trying to turn this "placeholder" character into something else when Cady arrived isn't working. Phyllis is a character steeped in history and lots of different angles/scenarios where she can fit in on the canvas, unlike Kelly. Now that Billy has been recast and is in a triangle with Chelsea/Victoria and that Phyllis is back (Sharon/Nick/Phyllis/Jack), . Plus, the arrival of Ashley will pretty much fill that "age" group (Ash/Stitch/Victoria/Billy/Chelsea). Kelly is not needed in any of these stories. It's too bad because I like Cady - especially if they could've worked more of her tougher "Rosanna" persona from ATWT.

LMAO.....oh she looks nothing like Phyllis and I highly doubt she'll deliver anything noteworthy except laughter. I dunno what CBS was thinking letting Big Red go...

I need to watch her on GH even if its just to see her on tv one last time....glad to hear Stafford is doing okay there.

I feel so bad for GT. She and Maura are two of the greatest actresses on soaps in the past 20 years. I just hope she doesn't have the same fate Maura did on Y&R stepping into a big part.

I have a feeling she will -- but not before they try their damnedest to make her work.
