With James DePavia most likely coming on as Jeff Webber I hope they cast his wife and Liz's mom

 

Id suggest Brynn Thayer who was Jenny Wolek on OLTL and also on Matlock

 

What are some other suggestions

Elizabeth's mother was already mentioned back in the 80s

So what?

So retconning it to be Diane or anyone else wouldn't make sense 

Elizabeth and Diane have had more than a few years of interaction, I doubt they would suddenly retcon to make them Mother/Daughter---not that anything surprises me anymore....

Why not? Retconning is part of soaps; happens all the time.

But for Diane, who's a secondary character at best

She wouldn't be secondary if they made her Liz and Hayden's mother and paired her with Jimmy Depaiva as Jeff Webber

Hayden's mother is Naomi. Diane and Elizabeth have shared scenes. In court, at the police station, Elizabeth made it very clear that her mother is a doctor, as did Sarah. She and Jeff have reportedly been missionary doctors for many years. Diane has been in town for close to ten years. 

 

Should they cast Elizabeth's mother (and I haven't heard she's being cast, but I could be wrong), it will likely be a new face to the show.

 

Last I heard of Ann Logan, there was a throwaway line from Bobbi about Noah Drake hooking up with "virgin" Ann Logan in Arizona...

Why does everyone hate Kale Brown? I always found him attractive and not offensive as an actor. 

Anna Stuart could play nearly anyone's mother on a soap. She still looks perennially 59. Perfect age for Liz's mother. 

This role will never happen, so I'll shoot for the moon as I always have: Melody Thomas Scott.

 

Haha! Yes, I know. She'd be insane to ever leave Y&R and never will. But if I could have anyone that's who. Liz's mother would be a scheming surgeon/philanthropist running roughshod over her daughters' lives.

 

Failing MTS, the obvious choice is of course, Colleen Zenk.

Just stop with the Diane stuff, to retcon that would be beyond idiotic. Liz knows her mot her and we're supposed to believe for all the time she's been in PC that she didn't recognize Diane as her mother? JUST NO

Diane somehow being Liz's mom is the dumbest thing I've ever heard and makes absolutely no goddamn sense. Plus, I don't need even more Diane. Current Diane levels are more than adequate.

Srsly, folks?  Diane?  Lucille March would make more sense than Diane.

What is too bad is, most current viewers of GH have no idea who Lucille was or how good she was on the show.  Not much footage is available of her for public viewing, sadly.  Gloria Monty arrived after the bloodbath of 1975, where Lucille and a few other long-running characters were written out, and most current viewers look at Monty's reign as the beginning of GH, though the show was already on the air for almost 15 years prior to her arrival.
