Such a talented and one of a kind woman. A true goddess - one of those people you feel lucky to have ever known about. She was always able to remake herself for new eras while remaining true to her morals and standards. I really loved her work in Claudine, a role she gave so much dignity. And in more recent years, she was a standout on White Collar.

As an aside:

 

All these daytime soap HWs on social media tweeting pics and memes of Diahann Carroll as Dominique Deveraux yet wouldn't think to create such a character on their own soap-- they don't even give any black women characters a semblance of agency on their shows! They should all be ashamed of their hypocrisy! 

 

Daytime still suffers (I mean the ratings suffer) from this problem.

    • Really?? You could have fooled me.  
    • [Swooon (with three letter o in the name) is a sister site to tvinsider.] May 16, 2025: Stephanie Sloane interviews Tracey Bregman and Christian LeBlanc regarding the Lauren/Michael romance. https://www.swooon.com/1192754/young-and-the-restless-michael-lauren-romance-christian-j-leblanc-tracey-bregman/ There is a video interview of 32:50 length, embedded within the article -- but it's hard to see unless you disable adblockers. Here's a copy of the same video without ads, but it's very slow-loading. It works fine once completely loaded. https://archive.org/details/6ri-7d-54w (I think this interview was done because there will be a little Lauren/Michael romance scene on May 21, 2025 episode.  But the interview isn't tied to that).
    • For the Duprees to be the core family, other non-Dupree characters have brought something more to the table than they have. The two daughters are both victims at this point. Vernon hasn't done a whole lot besides coddle Martin. And I'm not too sure about Anita's singing past being all that interesting either.

    • I actually stopped watching. I find the show really bad at the moment (or at least before I stopped, which was shortly after Sonia and Bianca's exit). And I just saw the overnight ratings for last week, quite bad, below 2 mil.  I don't like the nuMitchells all, I don't care about Avani and Joel, I hate what they have done to Kathy by making her an attempted murderer who is so chill about it, also she is pissed off at Cindy for cheating on Ian, yet she is enabling Harvey cheat on Jean, I don't like Peter and Lauren as a couple, she is always so toxic towards him, making Zach Barney's dad is such a lame decision and plot twist... I found Stacey vs Ruby in the end horrible for Stacey. Firstly she accoused Ruby of burning the stall, then when she learned it was Lily, she was bullying Ruby into not telling anyone and making Ruby leave the square with everyone thinking it was her who did it.. horrible look there for Stacey and Lily, who was such a brat there (I get she was going through a lot, but terrible mothering from Stacey there, to say: sure, you can commit arson, pin it on someone else and get away with it, if you're having tough time in your life). I still hate what they've done with Gina/Freddie/Anna, I think it ruined all three of them, the whole where George was during Cindy's attack was just forgotten, which is sloppy and I just didn't like Terry Cant's rushed return, that was such a let down which led to the rushed exit for Sonia.  So as you can see, I just don't like the show at all

    • LOL...who has time for college? They only went to half a semester, which wasn't really a problem for Mindy, Phillip or Beth. But no wonder Rick became known as Dr Death.
