Members KMan101 Posted August 31, 2020 Members Share Posted August 31, 2020 I knew better than to get excited, lol Can we get Brenda back as Ashley then, since Eileen doesn't seem to care if they recast? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Antoyne Posted September 2, 2020 Members Share Posted September 2, 2020 I was first exposed to her when Y&R was airing the classics and while I love Eileen, I was instantly drawn to Brenda. Would happily welcome a return if Eileen won’t commit. Ashley needs to be on canvas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted September 2, 2020 Members Share Posted September 2, 2020 I would be down for this. As a late '80s/'90s kid, Brenda Epperson was Ashley to me. I do prefer Eileen, but honestly, Brenda's version seemed more solid than Eileen post-Days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldRestless Posted September 2, 2020 Members Share Posted September 2, 2020 I love Brenda Epperson too and she's my "original" Ashley based on when I started watching, but it just feels wrong to recast when the character isn't in a frontburner storyline and the Emmy winning, original actor is still appearing on the show. I mean, it's not like they'd actually give Ashley a good storyline, because they aren't giving anyone a good storyline... so I'd rather just have Eileen appear once in a while for old time's sake. Always thought Brenda would be perfect for Kristen on B&B. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted September 3, 2020 Members Share Posted September 3, 2020 I prefer Eileen too but Brenda is such a great Ashley. I'd love to see her in the role again. Ashley definitely needs to be on the canvas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted September 3, 2020 Members Share Posted September 3, 2020 A pity that Ashley was given all those useless marriages - Steven,Blade, Cole, Tucker that damaged the character long term. And only one child to play off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted September 4, 2020 Members Share Posted September 4, 2020 That's the show that could use some returning legacy characters. She would be a great fit as Kristen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted September 4, 2020 Members Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) I can definitely agree with your point and where you're coming from. EDIT: And while fans do love Brenda as Ashley, I can see how it would look 'wrong' to recast. Even if Eileen doesn't seem to care lol 100% Brenda would be perfect for Kristen! I've always thought that too. Edited September 4, 2020 by KMan101 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 I don’t think it would look wrong, only because Eileen said she wants and expects them to recast. She said she’s absolutely not returning full time ever. The character is still valuable. But I do agree the idea of Brenda as Kristen is good, but they’ll never invest so I’d settle for drive bys from Tracy Melchior. The Forrester daughter who really needs to return is Felicia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 For a minute, I thought you guys were talking about Kristen on DAYS, lol. Why is ED so dead set on not returning full-time to Y&R? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) She's stated in the past that she simply doesn't want to work full-time at any show. The long hours plus the long commute equals too much time away from family. by the way, Lynda Hirsch issued a correction. "A girl can dream, can't she? I was so thrilled that Eileen Davidson (Ashley) was headed back to "The Young and the Restless." I had her returning for long run. Davidson let me know her stay is for a finite stay. Too bad. The actress and the character always bring a touch of class to the show. For now, we will take what we can get." https://www.creators.com/read/lynda-hirsch-on-soaps/09/20/lynda-hirsch-on-television-gossip-48319 Edited September 9, 2020 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members titan1978 Posted September 9, 2020 Members Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Lol. “Let me know”. You mean tweeted out to everybody? Eileen states in her tweet she doesn’t know who Linda is. Edited September 9, 2020 by titan1978 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
