I'll take my apologies from everyone who said I was being 'too negative' on this point last year on engraved or embossed parchment. Scented optional!

Yeah, honestly...I really don't think Valentini has ever had any interest in promoting black characters. His work at OLTL says it all. He, and ABC as a whole, want pretty, white faces  (for the women - the men can be as ugly as possible), and a majority of their remaining viewers do as well. 

I'm glad Sydney is leaving to help build her future rather than stay with a show that would never have any real use for her.

I'm going to miss Sydney as Trina. She was such a bright spot amongst the teen scene, I hope she does well in all of her future endeavors. I know she was doing a lot of voice over work along with GH and college too.

I believe we were both on team she’s leaving lol.

I think it is incredibly sad that people have to post to their soap audience to be nice to a new actress.  I hope she is given a chance, because it’s certainly not her fault we are where we are.

And I am all about education.  But I also bet if Frank had offered her what she was worth there might have been at least a 2 year contract, enough to play this out some.  I really liked her as Trina, I hope the new performer brings what we love and new dimensions to the character.

      I guess I have to reluctantly rewatch
    • That works for me. And/or Dani could be in with a fast crowd and got involved with something shady and Bill came to the rescue.
    • I think judging from synoses of other shows, that the summaries are roughly in the order they played throughout the year. So Kubeck returned to a more crime theme. Maybe now that EON was competition they wanted that audience? Re Jameson Parker, the story goes that he was not pleased that TPTB wanted to tread lightly with the Dale/Ellen romance and he was taken to task over some improvs he added re touching Ellen in ways considered too 'racey'.So when his contract was up he quickly moved to OLTL as Brad.
    • I don’t think it was intentional. Because if it was, I imagine it would’ve been mentioned in one of those ‘Welcome to the Neighborhood’ specials that aired. 
    • I mean, soaps are a world were 5'2" Eva Longoria can be a runway model...
    • I wonder if Michelle Val Jean even considered this. It seems so obvious to many of us.  If they want the Dupree name to continue, Anita and Vernon need at least one male heir.  Two would be even better.  Do you think Val Jean may have written it this way intentionally for some reason?  
    • Agreed Anita and Vernon definitely needed a son or two.  The Duprees are the core family, yet the name practically doesn’t even exist anymore.  Some slot machines would be nice

    • I would have it come out that Dani was pregnant with Naomi while her career was still on the rise, and the idea of a Dupree having a baby out of wedlock would be scandalous, and Bill, who was starting out in his career, received pressure from Vernon/Anita to do the "honorable thing" and marry her and in exchange Vernon promised to help his new son-in-law out with his legal career. 
    • Dani,

    • Dani as a model never sat right with me, especially when some of the cringe dialogue was saying she was a rival to Naomi Campbell. Not trying to be mean or disparaging against her, but in no world would Dani/Karla Mosley's looks have ever have been accepted in the real world and ultra competitive high fashion modeling industry - certainly not 15-20 years ago. I get this is fiction, but come on...
