If it's Nov 8th then it'd a Nathan/Olivia/Dru/Neil day with Neil and Dru arguing about her modelling instead of pursuing ballet. Then Dru has Christine teach her how to model. Also a Sheila/Lauren confrontation day. Nov 11th is when Lauren's baby was dying and you had some Katherine/Dina scenes. Will be interesting to see which of these episodes actually airs.

(They skim over Lauren/Dylan, but detail a Molly/Sheila scene.)

I don't remember Amy Lewis ever being a "random teen girl".  Seems like Amy was always Traci's best friend from the time that Amy appeared, a dance and aerobics instructor (Stephanie was a dancer in real life), and the daughter of Commander Frank Lewis of the police force.   She was a contract character from the get-go.   Lauren didn't like Amy, because Amy knew Lauren was a heifer.  Later on, Amy went to work for Paul and Andy, but at first she was a college girl teaching aerobics and helping Traci deal with the snotty Lauren.

I loved this 2006 episode. As has been said, makes me hate that they allowed VR to leave. I just love the Winters family in these scenes, feels genuine and real. Sharon Case looks absolutely fantastic here. Wow. I know Amber was pretty hit or miss but I enjoyed seeing her arrival and introduction to Kay. I forgot how beautiful Adrienne Frantz is. This was my first time seeing Colleen and JT together, they seem to have chemistry despite her concern for the professor. 

 

Outside of that WOW did the show move fast. I swear they went from set to set to set and back to the same set. I did however love the small touches like Lauren and Michael taking turns with the baby and their careers.

VR keeps saying Bill Bell worked with her on the foster child story with Devon - what is the background on this? I thought Bell was phasing himself out of HWing around '98 or so, and he died around the same time of the story.

Oh yeah, Stephanie Williams definitely "interacted" with Amy.  She was the beautiful young actress who portrayed Amy Lewis.  lol.    

 

Dr. Neil Curtis, I've never read or heard much about what led to Stephanie Williams leaving the show.  At the time it was happening, I thought it was a pretty bad mistake to let her go.   My guess is that Bill Bell temporarily ran out of storyline ideas for her and released her from her contract.   She had a haphazard "going-away" storyline of some sort --- such as Amy's dad had a heart attack in San Diego (or something), and she had to go spend time with him.  (I'm a little bit vague on it at the moment.)  Then as someone said above, Amy began reappearing several months later in a recurring capacity (no contract).  Seems like Nathan Hastings found her working out in the gym and said, "Gosh, Amy, I didn't realize you were back in town," and she said, "Yes, I just got back", or something.   It seemed that Bell was about to start working Amy back into the storyline.  Then suddenly General Hospital gave Stephanie Williams a long-term contract to play the role of Simone Hardy, so any recurring work planned for her on Y&R quickly went out the window.  Soon after, Drucilla was introduced.

    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
