Kelly Lee, whose entire character arc was 'horny nymphomaniac'. I do miss that whole crew of doctors, etc. who would go chill at Jake's though. Robin, Patrick, Kelly, Lainey who was a token character of color in various demeaning C-plots, Epiphany, Liz I think, etc.

I think Korf left OLTL (and soaps) to go back to the NY theater, specifically a big David Henry Hwang show that did not go well; I believe Ellen Bethea did the same for awhile. Now Bethea is a poet in Vermont.

Yikes!  My bad.  Lol.  I was sure it was spelled with an e, but the point remains.  Selena Wu isn't scary or threatening.  Just sorta there.

At this point, from reading the DAYS thread, Suzanne Rogers is more sexy and threatening.

7 more days of D&C and that has been tweaked. It seems to me that we are in the process of witnessing a classic soap shake-up & it couldn't happen to a nicer soap! IOW, a soap that needs it so badly but also is not so far gone that it is beyond helping! This leaves me trying to maintain a position of "guarded optimism" while inside I am jumping up & down. 

Yesterday, I didn't get to watch till today. 

I thought the scene between Miz Wu & Sonny was very effective. Interesting exchange of information & adds another side to the "Org Crime Serial Killer Gang" storyline. 

Also I found it very interesting that Curtis withheld what little information he has from Jordan & I didn't get why he did that. 

Literally the mention of Morgan got half of Twitter wondering about if Morgan is about to be back on the canvas. (He's not.) And the other half showing soap fan humor. Posts querying who will play the new Morgan? Most popular reply a huge image of Michael Easton. 2nd most popular reply same but Howarth. And they say soap fans have no humor! 

I did not at all like the way Sonny treated Dante. Are we seeing a new more unpleasant Sonny? Or is it just Sonny from the past back in extremis? This repeating refrain that he is isolating himself, maybe that is really coming true. 

Nina was hilarious trying to take on Diane. I don't even like Diane & I was cheering her on. 

And, also, STFU Lucy! She is not even trying. Snarking her way from one day to the next. 

I'm interested in Spinelli & Maxie. Didn't know I would be. 

I have heard of one actor being taken off contract. And my thought about that is that it's a start. Now, how about a dozen more?

    • I love my girl, but nope he's pathetic. 250K and now he's put her business at risk.   L O S E R

    • The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.  
    • Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.
    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse
