Members kalbir Posted May 18, 2021 Members Share Posted May 18, 2021 Sounds about right. I remember B&B having a cast purge in spring 1997. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted May 18, 2021 Members Share Posted May 18, 2021 I always hated that they dropped Stefano's will & mysterious gifts in 2002 on DAYS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bboy875 Posted May 18, 2021 Members Share Posted May 18, 2021 On As The World Turns, I believe Camille was searching for her father. She became close to John Dixon, and I thought either he was her father or a red herring, but Camille left town without an answer. And I don't think they ever attempted a story out of it, but I don't think they ever mentioned who was Cassie's father on Guiding Light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ghfan89 Posted May 18, 2021 Members Share Posted May 18, 2021 Since the Sean D. tribute is on GH this week, that reminds me. Was it ever the plan for Felicia to be Sean's daughter? It seemed they might of been going in that direction early on when he was after the Aztec treasure that was a part of Felicia's family legacy, but then ended up not going there after all.

Members DemetriKane Posted May 20, 2021 Members Share Posted May 20, 2021 IKR I wish they dipped their toes into more drama like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted May 20, 2021 Members Share Posted May 20, 2021 It would've been fantastic; the storyline kind of just dipped out all of a sudden, which is so unfortunate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted May 20, 2021 Members Share Posted May 20, 2021 I thought the story was overall looked down on? Was it that popular? I remember reading about it and was intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted May 20, 2021 Members Share Posted May 20, 2021 In watching scenes from the storyline, I am so intrigued by it, because it was dark and just seemed incredibly different for The Bold and the Beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DemetriKane Posted May 21, 2021 Members Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) Bell soaps does its best work with dark & eerie storylines imo. Deveney and Sheila Carter!!!! Edited May 21, 2021 by DemetriKane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Roman Posted May 23, 2021 Members Share Posted May 23, 2021 many, including myself, believe WP was Jock. I think it was dropped because fans hit the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted May 23, 2021 Members Share Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) I think we need to differentiate between dropped and unresolved storylines. Deveney on B&B was really neither. It was an unusual story because it was so time limited and it had a distinct beginning, middle and end. Stephanie began making mysterious phone calls, it is established that she was conned into believing that Angela Forrester was alive, there's an accident, and the doctor and Deveney were apparently dead. Then, Deveney returned, vowed revenge on the Forrester brothers using the knowledge of the real unresolved story; Thorne's shooting of Ridge. However, before she can reveal her plan at the Queen Mary fashion show, Thorne befriends Deveney, offers to pay for her plastic surgery, and she leaves to go get reconstructed. Thus, it wasn't really dropped, and there was no need to revisit it, it just ended. As far as unresolved stories, I would say that Passions was the guiltiest of the genre. Why did Chad's adoptive parents disappear? Why did Antonio abandon his siblings? Whatever happened to the guy who Ivy paid to say was Grace's first husband (and his son)? These were all plots with no resolution but they were not dropped in the same way that Mitch's brother on OLTL suddenly disappeared without a mention.
