Frankly, at this point, I think they'd play anything and be happy about it.

 

Oh God. Hush your mouth on Ben! LMAO!!!!

 

I agree. I'd want John to rescue me. 

 

I wouldn't mind Steve but he seems to go missing for weeks at a time ...  

 

omg! lol. yes you should 

 

I usually log on without coffee and that never goes well

That's fair.  He has shown skills by getting away with multiple murders lol.  The ISA is shady so they would probably just welcome him aboard.  He's so much like Bo, you know.

Yeah I believe John and Steve could still rescue people.  I would 100% want him in Beyond Salem over Justin/Bonnie's wedding, but Marlena needs a reason to be there.

It's kinda sad when you think about it that Kayla and Steve don't even fit into Beyond Salem. Beyond Salem does make me miss Bope and that we're stuck with the bootleg version.

Have we all forgot about Sexy Retcon Paul? Would have been nice to see him included instead of Peter Porte, who I'm guessing is a double crossing agent.

 

I loved Paul/Will working together for that brief hot minute we had them as a couple. Though now I figure I'll be shipping Wilson again. I could have seen Paul and Will the new John/Marlena so to speak. lol.

OMG!  Paul as an ISA agent is brilliant.  Is he still paralyzed?   Loved Paul with Will.  Loved Paul in general.  Will/Paul on spy missions would be amazing.

Yeah, it's kinda sad Steve/Kayla got sidelined for the spinoff, but I think it was either them or Jarlena and I think Jarlena are just more of the face of Days.

Jarlena definitely are the face. I think because it's a caper that ties them all together - I'm assuming - it makes sense who's included and who might not be. You also have to go with 'stars' who can be marketable faces to the mainstream. It makes sense who they picked. I'd rather see Tony and Anna, than say Steve and Kayla forced into it.

 

I love Paul too. I always felt we got shafted of a real triangle. I know Christopher Sean is keeping busy but I'd love to see him back. Or, if need be, find a capable recast. I think the show can do it. But we can't even get a drag queen in a promo on NBC so ...

 

Paul as an ISA agent kinda writes itself, doesn't it? I have to admit I can't remember if he walked before he left or not. LOL. My memory can be crap, especially on periods I start to tune out.

It makes sense for Tony/Anna especially with Carrie/Austin involved.  I guess there are only so many people you can show, but I don't think Steve/Kayla being with Jarlena in Switzerland would be shoehorned in.  I am happy with what we got as far as casting on this so I won't complain.

Paul was paralyzed I believe when he left, but he has shown signs of improvement I think according to John who mentions him from time to time.   I would be all for a recast Paul, but Christopher Sean was so perfect.  He really had similar mannerisms to Drake and is exactly what I would imagine a John/retconTori child would look like if that makes sense lol.  He has so much charisma in a role that should have been a flop.

      ALL: Drag/Crossdressing Disguises in Soap Operas?

      By Xanthe · Posted

      Sorry, I don't know the non-AW ones. In addition to the 2x Cass disguised himself as Krystle (1984 to hide from Tony Jones, 1994 investigating Felicia's disappearance), there was one occasion in October 1987 where Cass imposter Rex Allingham dressed as a woman and, claiming to be Nicole's Aunt Blanche, disrupted her date with another man. (At the time I don't think the audience yet knew that it wasn't Cass.)

      THANK YOU SO MUCH. If there was any way we could sticky this post or make it so we don't forget where it is. I'm going to bookmark it for sure! AND WOW... Season 15 - nearly a whole month of skipped episodes. LOL.

      JFP was only as strong as her writers, which is why her output got worse and worse when she decided she was the only writer anyone needed. They could have easily had a decent short-term story with Lando - maybe cast him as a terminal patient at Cedars, or a long-lost Bauer or Reardon who would leave town after his story is done and possibly return at a later date with a recast. He might become close to Ed and Michelle, similar to how Ed had taken Kelly under his wing years earlier. Maybe he could have been tied to Maureen's death, somehow - maybe we'd learn, after he ingratiated himself to everyone in Springfield, that he accidentally ran Maureen off the road during the storm. And when he realizes this he would, in shame, leave town, maybe leaving some Springfield lady devastated if they were about to get married (this could have worked with a better Mindy recast, or maybe a brand new character).

      Notes I've made of skipped or faulty YouTube episodes are (I'll put in brackets the faulty ones, the rest are skipped episodes), that would be amazing if they could be replaced by higher quality Netherlands copies when they become available: 

      Please register in order to view this content

      S13: 3170, 3172, 3181 (faulty), 3203 (faulty), 3223 (faulty), 3255, 3278 (faulty), 3345, 3361 (faulty) S14: 3399, 3455 (faulty), 3479 (faulty), 3509 (faulty), 3555 (faulty end credits), 3580, 3600 (faulty), 3613 (faulty) S15: 3658 (faulty), 3667, 3668, 3669, 3670, 3674, 3678, 3679, 3681, 3682, 3684, 3685, 3686, 3690, 3692, 3694, 3696, 3697, 3699, 3709 S16: 4058, 4059, 4109 S17: 4137, 4194, 4262, 4284, 4358, 4362, 4371 S18 so far skipped: 4450, 4451. There may be further S18 episodes to replace in English if there are any further skips on YouTube, as many episodes from this season are just in German in the vault, and if they skip those, then we probably have to wait for an eventual Netherlands airing unless someone currently has them in English (currently the German ones needing to replace to full English for S18 are: 4477, 4485, 4486, 4492, 4493, 4494, 4497, 4514, 4515, 4518, 4520, 4522, 4523, 4524, 4526, 4531, 4538, 4541, 4575, 4612 - hopefully YouTube will not skip these, and they won't be a problem to fix). Also, jumping ahead a bit to future seasons, but does anyone have full English speaking copies of any of 4852, 4897, 5275, 5308, 5590, 5591, 5594 (as these are not in full or at all in English in the vault as far as I can tell)? Many thanks if you do! A million thank yous to all Angels helping out with these.

      I found the reference in the AWHP synopses -- it was 1995 but not directly related to the loanshark.

      One of the dumbest situations (Lando) ever. What audience member is going to invest in a storyline with a recast they don't like and a triangle where one character is short-term? It bombed as it should have done. So much of JFP's tenure just reeks of desperation. I don't get how someone could produce SB (which did have flaws but was often brilliant) but make so many terrible mistakes at GL.   I still think JFP would have worked better as a director and music supervisor. Her music work at SB was top notch.  It just seems that Rea was minimized during JFP's tenure because I can't imagine her okaying so many of these casting choices.

      We see the same with GH, where Mark Teschner, the casting director, reportedly has less say since Frank Valentini took over. Some producers want to take over every aspect of their shows.  I think Lando may have been a CBS push.
