[Cheap21]

Brendon and Rachel continue to get checks on this show. I rarely notice them but make money! I wish they'd give them names and for Rachel, make her more of a recurring character than extra

[dm.]

Rachel had 23 appearances so far, and Brendon 15.

(Since 2010.)

[cassadine1991]

Kim Matula at #1, much like with DAYS, the writers need to cool it

[dm.]

KM has been a non-stop airhog since she joined in January 2010. She's the only one giving KKL a run for her money.

(Aside from maybe Liam and Wyatt nowadays.)

[Toups]

As she should be. Brad Bell knows she's the present/future. It's unlike DAYS where they had no plan in place if/when Alison Sweeney left.

[ajsp35801]

Agree. B&B is probably the only soap on air that has invested in and allowed the new generation to lead. Days and, especially, Y&R needs to take a page out of this book.

[boldfan01]

They do have first names, at least - Brendon and Rachel. At one point, Rachel had indicated in an interview after her third or fourth appearance that her character was going to be named Julie, after Julie Chen, but it never showed up on air, and then in later appearances, both her and Brendon were referred to by their real first names in character.

I guess whether they would give Rachel more to do would depend on whether she can carry the workload of anything more than handling drinks. I haven't seen any other acting from her besides the B&B guest spots when they do something at Bikini or at a club, so I can't say if she can or not.

[edgeofnik]

So true. B&B has made a remarkable shift during the past four years - it really was an "old" show with usually one two or three younger character who almost always were involved with older (think Owen/Jackie as typical example). KM and the hiring of SC began the turnaround. And it continues to expand that set in a positive way. Even though, I wish they'd get over with these 20-somethings being obsessed with marriage and, instead, live the fast life of rich LA kids, it's miles better than throwing someone like Bridget/Katie to an old man like Nick. Even someone like Quinn feels so much "younger" and works so well with the younger actors. Y&R has plenty of legacy characters they should be building for a similar transition. I love the "old" favorites, but they have to start handing the baton down soon.

[Big mistake]

I miss Brooke. She has barely been on this year. 3 episodes less then KM. This is scandalous.
