His hands looked massive wrapped all the way around Leo's neck! Even if they'd had a safeword Leo couldn't get a word out!

Go to the youtube for more than 12 minutes of the ladies being confused about their characters' histories. LOL. Some things they knew, but a lot they didn't.

That "panties are melting" tweet kind of says it all. Leo is just a cheap gay joke to viewers, every stereotype rolled into one, and Ron loves every second of it. Only in a dead genre could one hack's fetish material get through so many different times over the last 10 years. At this point if Ron has never seen Cruising, don't let him know about it.

I kinda want to see how he would react if a woman did to him what Leo does to the straight boys 😂😂

Something tells me he wouldn’t like it or laugh it off as a joke at all.

LMAO at MBE: "If you've been on this show, you've been in a coma." And Dee dryly saying 'hard to believe, I know' as to Marlena not(?) being buried alive.

I guess today the writers decided to put Leo in scenes with Xander in boxer shorts, because *surely* that would get viewers to watch? NOPE. Basically if Leo is on, I don't watch.

The moment where they all immediately drink after the back from the dead question. Hilarious video.

Yep. The pictures are good enough and I can screen out Leo. But it is just silly how he is still around period.

I will not say how many times I hit the rewind button on this part but I enjoy every bit of this moment.

ALL: Recasts who were quickly accepted by the audience

Maybe the three key Margo Hugheses on ATWT? There was a fourth like Bransford who didn't go over well, but the others were very distinctive and to my understanding popular.
Vicky Hudson on AW might be the same, though I have never cared much for Jensen Buchanan lol.

GH: November 2025 Discussion Thread

I thought the scenes between Britt and Jason were well done, so I'll give KT props for that at least. I agree it felt like she was asking too much of him. It's unrealistic to think Jason, of all people, would be 100% committed to anyone at this point and he actually shouldn't have to be when he's just offering help? Britt also has family that would be happy to help her, so it's not as if she's all alone in the world.
The whole Dalton murder and Britt/Sidwell connection is fine I suppose, but it feels like the show just scrapped Emma's only story. All the months she spent trying to get in good with Dalton yet she never cracked the case and now he's dead.

Your daily (or nightly) thought

That's great that you've found something to enjoy. I remember my first telenovela as a child - Rosalinda. I was obsessed. I was sooo little, practically a baby, but remember re-enacting scenes from the show, fake falling down the stairs like Rosalinda and fake-getting run by car like she was. I would recreate these hyper dramatic moments all day long. My father cringing every time he sees me. 😄

Cherie Jimenez as Gabi on Days. I am not sure if Camila Banus was ever super popular, but she led storyline and was on the show for years.
Not to veer off topic, but I am also quite fascinated by the Carly situation on GH. I know TB wasn't immediately accepted, while Laura was due to the Bransford situation, but it has to be rare to have such longevity and success with three separate actors in the role. Are there other roles/actors that have achieved that?

That was a messy story. I'm still waiting for Krista to write her tell all book. 😄

Thank you for reminding me! I think I know which ones you are referring to. It's just so hard to follow what is up and what gets taken down from YouTube. I think they've been cleaning a lot of channels due to this new streaming thing.
BTW, I was just watching again and I guess Susan Lucci was on hiatus, because Erica is nowhere to be seen. They left us on a cliffhanger and now I watch every episode expecting to see what happened with her and the clown. Manipulative writing.

D'oh! That makes sense. In that case, Jill Larson (AMC) as Opal. She had the additional advantage of the character being offscreen for a half-decade.

Kimberley is another, definitely, especially as she got to stand on her own with the Musketeers phasing out.
Those are the responses I was most interested in seeing, but I didn't want to make a lot of rules because I am enjoying seeing the different suggestions, even for people who were replacing lesser-known performers.

I'm interpreting this thread as focussing more on recasts that had to replace popular performers, and thus had to prove themselves rather than just taking the place of actors who hadn't made much of an impression or proven to very popular with viewers.
eg Michael O'Leary as Rick on GL replaced Phil McGregor but Phil hadn't made much of an impression in the role and that was why he was replaced in the first place.
