Lexie was pretty much a prop until the baby switch, that's when she came alive. I remember wishing Kristen was around to tell her "told ya so" back then.

I think it would be interesting to see their dynamic now. That's why I say recast, reinvent the character a bit and throw her into the middle of everything.

If there was ever a time to bring her back it's now.  With the canvas set up the way it is she's a valuable piece of the puzzle.

I definitely think it would be a great time to bring Lexie back.  I did like RJ, but I don't think she's unrecastable or anything.  The show has recast much more iconic characters like Bo, Roman, Kristen, etc. and there are plenty of actress out there that could do Lexie justice.  I wish they would bring Peter and Lexie back and revive the Dimeras because what we have now isn't what it could be.

The should definitely revive the DiMeras.

We have a solid, popular recast in EJ. Stacy has been killing it since 2018. Tony and Anna are the DiMera Doug and Julie, quirky and classy. Chad is late to the family but brings balance to all the crazy. Bring Lexie back, un-DiMera Jake, make Peter Stefano and Vivian's son. Make DiMera Enterprises a prize and the story writes itself. Every component is workable.

With that mix of characters, the characters they're connected with, Kristen's crazy and the scar of Stefano's legacy you could make a spinoff out of DiMera Manor alone.

I do like Brandon Barash so they can keep Jake. Just do something interesting with him.

Thanks! I appreciate that.

I went through some personal stuff and quit watching for a while but I picked it back up in May.

It's been a revelation how good Stacy is. Anyone who knows me knows I'm an OG Kristen stan and I love Stacy. Best recast I could've picked.

The show is good right now minus the possession story. I had high hopes and it's been a mess. But it's fun watching and posting again.

Jasmine?

Ron would love it -- he'd bring back Marie-Alise Recasner as Lynn Burke for some cutesy lines about her and Lexie having beef 'cause each thinks the other ghosted her in college.

I mean, if you're gonna bring Lexie back from the dead, you can't do it with some mealy-mouthed nothing who'll fade into the cheap woodwork within six months and then be promptly killed off (again).  NuLexie's got to be portrayed by someone who can bring the fire and heat that served the character well in her biggest, most OTT moments.

Jasmine crossed my mind but I think I've settled on Michael Michele for my wishful Lexie. I love Jasmine though!

I love the Nurse Lynn idea. She was a great diabolical sidekick for Kristen and Marie Alise Recasner was great! They expanded her into other stories, at one point she was a foil for Sami, but Nurse Lynn should've always been a bigger character.

Her and Lexie going to med school together is a great idea!

      I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.

      So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.

      So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.

      It does seem cheap and lazy for this show to have just one family. Passions was heavily criticized but it was nicely structured with a total of four families.

      I think it was definitely a surprising reveal in the storyline. I had a hard time appreciating Evan because I couldn't get behind his interest in Amanda. But that's because I never thought Sandra Ferguson made her a compelling character (although to give her credit she occasionally had decent emotional scenes with Mac or Rachel).

      I'll even go further... I'll make her re-think BeLief and create a new patent. Brooke needs stuff to do. Anything other than beg or be in her panties. We need her to be creative. But sadly Bradley has a very low opinion of these characters. To him Brooke is nothing more than sex and scandal... or a pathetic doormat. Ridge is nothing more than a chauvinist pig that needs to pit women against each other to feel like A MAN and Steffy is nothing more than her father's guard-dog. I don't even want to open my mouth about Hope. She is such a fiasco in my opinion... I will not suffer if they kill her off. Bradley pooped on her character and now it's too late to fix it. Annika is great and I would hate to see her go, but slutty Hope was not her thing. The vibe was missing.

      I've seen Jason interact with Mitch and annoy him. That's as far as I recall. I didn't even have a slight idea that Evan had a vendetta against Rachel... That came as a surprise to me. I thought Evan was Iris's dog and that's it. Now he's definitely more interesting.

      Thanks for these. I can't recall -- did Evan's vendetta have any position on Mitch, or was it all about Rachel? @Maxim have you seen any Frames intreracting with Mitch in any way?
