As much as they were (are) ridiculous Leanna could have fitted into Restless Style, GC Buzz/Hilary Hour and now Newman Media.

She would bring out Jack's playful side and cause all kinds of mischief.

Trouble is Josh would probably use her for sledgehammer comedy relief.

I'm probably in the minority, but there was a brief period of Mal Young's tenure I rather enjoyed - shortly after SSM and KA's departure up until Hilary's death and the introduction of the Rosales clan. There were very solid moments like Nick finding out Christian's paternity/Chelsea leaving GC, the fallout from Sharon finding out about Abby and Scott's affair, Teriah angst, and probably the first few moments of the domestic abuse storyline. I think where it fell off was how JT's supposed murder dragged on, the Blood Abbott clause and Ashley messing up Jack's paternity, and how the Rosales clan ate up the show so quickly, though I did enjoy Mia. I cannot think of a storyline under JG's pen where I can share the same degree of warm sentiments.

Is she back doing horror movies again? I haven’t followed her career but I do remember her being in the super campy Chopping Mall with Kelli Maroney from Night of the Comet. Lord what movies use to come on Saturday nights on third-tier TV OTA stations…

I recall Crampton was last on Y&R in early 2007 when Leanna Love popped up to interview David Chow. Super random but it was a neat little reunion I suppose of Nick & Mindy from GL

She never really stopped; she is really adored in those circles so she gets work all the time if only because having "Barbara Crampton" on the DVD box of a low-budget horror movie means a producer has almost a guaranteed floor of sales.
Down to her being front-and-center in small movie posters despite having a two-minute cameo.

    • 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. 
    • How did this come to be?

      Btw, if he’s on again, you should apply to be a contestant
    • 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.

    • 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.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...

    • And based on the previews for today, maybe we’ll, uh, finally see something

    • Haven't seen today's ep yet but so will be interested to see the clothes. So far I think they have been very character specific (even if I don't like some of them eg Kat's cutsie style) Anita is very showy/glittery, Nicole classic elegance, Dani sexy/bold colors etc. Unlike Y&R which seems much more generic. Also BTG pays attention to the men's wardrobe and has developed a style for the boyz-which is harder to do with male fashion. The absence of any of Derek/Ashley at any of these big events again demonstrates how they are in a different universe to the rest of the show. Not that a nurse and a fireman would be there but still they seem destined at this point to stay in their own lane and have little interaction with the core of the show.
