Frank has allegedly wanted to get rid of Julian since the murder attempt on Alexis; they were supposedly overruled by ABC because of a handful of hausfraus on FB or twitter or something. They wrote in that stupid band-aid where they blamed his actions on Olivia Jerome, but that never took. You don't get past trying to kill your wife with the dagger that killed her mother, a historical backstory event that goes all the way back to '96 or '97 and some very famous scenes with Helena. NLG clearly has been over the pairing with Julian ever since and has only given it polite lip service from then on.

 

Supposedly Julian was even originally intended to be short-term when Ron was writing but the pairing with Alexis took off with fans and they just kept it going and going. But yes, they've been actively trying to dump him for like five or six years. Good riddance.

 

Lulu needs a rest and retooling almost as much as Maxie (who needed to be offscreen several years ago). I like Rylan but she's not a lead. Either beg Berman to come back or hire Jennifer Landon, I agree.

Well, if they are not putting Julian and Alexis back together (which would be wrong given the knife incident) and there is no Julian/Alexis/Neil triangle...really no reason for him to be around.

 

I am sad about Lulu though. She has slowly been getting story and now...Nik is the only child of Laura's in town is just sad. Especially since Laura is a fixture back in PC at last.

Emme  Ryan is just lousy as Lulu. I just don’t see her in any romantic pairing, because she comes across as too hard to me. Not sure if that explains it very well. She just doesn’t work as this character.

 

Julian has been written into a corner, but I do think he’s a solid actor. Most on here are happy he’s going, but i can think of plenty who should get a pink slip before he does.

Emme Rylan started out well as Lizzie on GL, but over time she lost that spark and when she got on GH she was forgettable. It's sad because I really used to like her in the early days as Lizzie.

 

I feel as if Sasha, Dusty, Chase, Peter, and Willow would be the ones out the door before Rylan but it looks like I was wrong. I hope this is just the beginning though.

 

DeVry's exit has been a long time coming though, I have no doubt Sonny will take him out for his part in the baby switch.

I am shocked that they would cut ER as Dante has returned.  Wild.  I wonder if the show plans to recast?

 

I won’t miss her interpretation, I hope for a better recast or JMB to return.

 

As far as Julian-  bye!  I was excited when he was cut the first time, and even though they were forced to bring him back he has been pretty marginalized since.

I ALWAYS miss the big news. LOL.

 

That's really surprising on Rylan, considering Lulu is in the middle of a fairly big story.

 

Not at all sad or surprised about deVry. I'm pretty sure Frank's wanted him out for a while. He was pretty much gone a few years ago.

 

The cast is way too big and they do a poor job of it because they seem to have to cater to having Sonny and Jason and Carly on 18 times a month.

 

I'm kinda surprised Jordan and Sasha aren't out the door too. 

 

I won't miss her either. JMB isn't really doing anything is she? I thought she was a bit harder and harsher in the role and wasn't the biggest fan but she was leagues better than Rylan and at least there's some connection to her Lulu. Rylan's been Lulu for 7 years and she's STILL meh.

      Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.

      I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube.

      Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her

      @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

      https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.
