Million dollar Mamie is now 10 Million dollar Mamie, and I am here for it.

I'm all about a Mamie/Jill story. I hope the writers really milk it.

I hope they keep Mamie on at least recurring in the future. She fills the old-school matriarch position that the show is missing for me. I love how she told Lily, Nate, and Devon how things were going to be.

I wish we could have Jill full-time again. Whenever she's on, it feels like classic Y&R for me.

This person is not Mamie, but I like watching her.

I haven’t seen anything this basic since Kelly Sullivan was on the show.

I miss her. Such a missed opportunity.

"You don't want to be his wife, you want to be his widow!" is such an awesome line.

No, I think it might be from 8/18/95 which we don’t have but I’ll check.

edit: the clip is from 8/17/95!

Um what the hell is Mamie up to? The end of the episode phone call has me extremely intrigued.

I like that there's another twist to this story. I can't imagine at this point who she could be in cahoots with.

I legit have no idea who it could be since Tucker is so focused on Jabot.

Can anyone tell me why Heather uses the last name Stevens, when her father's last name is Williams? I'm sure there must be some history to this, but I'm not aware of it. Thanks!!

Heather's mother is April Stevens.

Classic telenovelas

Chileeee this is WILD.

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.

Oh, I've got another -- Melody Thomas Scott as Nikki.
