Members SoapDope Posted February 12, 2021 Members Share Posted February 12, 2021 Yes. There was a woman's voice on the phone and tried to figure out who it might be. Then nothing came of it. Another Y&R story is when Lorie showed up Victor & Nikki's wedding in 1984 and wanted get together with Ashley on a project or something......it was dropped.

Members Jonathan Posted February 12, 2021 Members Share Posted February 12, 2021 I'm ok with characters not getting an exit. Like with Brooke in 2010, for example, instead of creating a backstory for the character that she had been traveling overseas, the show could have just re-introduced her as if she had been living in Pine Valley all that time she wasn't onscreen. In theory, Pine Valley has a population of what, 25K or so, residents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 12, 2021 Members Share Posted February 12, 2021 I think if a character was around long enough to be in stories then they generally deserve some sort of exit, even just a few lines. Otherwise it makes the show feel more hollow to me. I would agree about Brooke, but I felt like they gave her a re-entrance partly to show viewers that they knew it had been wrong to just dump Julia Barr the way they did.

Members soapfan770 Posted February 13, 2021 Members Share Posted February 13, 2021 Actually, we do know why he dropped Morgan’s return: Thudley got Hunter Tylo back! However I hated the show wasted Buxton’s talent like that, as I think that has been her last daytime appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted February 13, 2021 Members Share Posted February 13, 2021 What happened to the Grant family was a tragic mess. If I recall right David’s return in 1998 came right after Charles had his heart attack to a faulty Spaulding produced + Santos mob funded pacemaker. For a brief moment there seemed to be momentum; David swearing revenge, Vicki Brandon revealing herself as a Spaulding, David finding Vivian getting comfort in Griffin’s arms(!) and arguing with Marcus, Vivian being a victim by the Nursery Rhyme Stalker and then absolutely nothing came out of it at all. Worse still is that Marcus & Dahlia lasted a lot longer into 1998 than I remember from what I have seen, still randomly popping up at parties and what not. Carl if you ever want a sad laugh with SoapCentral profiles on characters who got non exits you should read the end of Ellen Stewart’s profile on ATWT.

Members FrenchBug82 Posted February 13, 2021 Author Members Share Posted February 13, 2021 See I didn't remember that the timing coincided and I am surprised because I would have been pissed if I remembered. Let me just say that was not a good trade-off LOL I saw recent photos of Buxton and she looks great but yeah indeed it looks like she has moved on from acting.

Members Forever8 Posted February 14, 2021 Members Share Posted February 14, 2021 He had prostate cancer. He waited forever to tell Lauren about his illness and he wanted her to take up with the walking stick because he thought "he wasn't man enough anymore" He also hired a prostitute played by Lindsay McKeon whom he ended up confiding in that of course went nowhere.

Members mikelyons Posted February 15, 2021 Members Share Posted February 15, 2021 Colleen's issues with food on Y&R circa 2004-5. They briefly mentioned it at Crimson Lights when she was spending time with Lily and some mean girls commented if she needed that much foam or whatever in her drink. It would have been a beautiful storyline involving Colleen, Brad, and Traci, but it was dropped without a second thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
