Well, at this point, Van was trying to get Ross' attention...but I guess I get his point a little more now, that he'd need more time to trust that the second Billy crooks his finger she'd drop him, or that part of her interest in Ross is a reaction to realizing he's interest in Holly, which he isn't admitting to.
Well, at the end of '92, he' was done being DA and gave up being Senator. I'm not sure if Roger actually put some kind of squeeze on him to punish him for being involved with Blake. But Ross was always bouncing between private practice and DA/Corporate work. And in '94-'95 there was still lingering hostility between Van and Ross over the custody trial, I'd imagine. Vanessa did not attend his wedding to Blake. So them working together while she ran Lewis would've been a no-go.
There was a very weird scene of Ann Hamilton's Mindy skeet shooting, when Kimberly Simms' Mindy never acted like a girl who'd done anything more than shop.
It wouldn't have hurt if Jordan was still there to help Barbara Crampton in the role, but I just can't see it being more than a band-aid. Crampton just wasn't able to channel some inner "Princess" persona, if you know what I mean.
The similarities between Vanessa/Holly and their relationships with their daughters is why I don't understand why Van wasn't more involved in Nursery Stalker story.
I'm sure GL would've loved to do a Holly/Roger/Sonni triangle (and maybe add in Van and Ross) if Michelle had stayed.
