I was more worried re-cast Brenda would be back played by a blonde

I don't see it happening.  At least not now.  The character doesn't seem to be a priority, but neither has Jagger since 1992 so 

Vanessa actually writing a book that gets published to the masses would be like Christmas and my Birthday at once.  If it happens I am first in line.

Back then she wanted some flexibility like Genie Francis etc… 

Probably a big paycheck ofc and flexibility with the filming schedule to have enough time for her family.. Kinda like Geary I guess who got a contract for like 30-32 weeks and rest vacay. 

I mean this cast is hughe. Instead of casting some queer as folk actors why not giving Vanessa something and bring her back. I know she ain’t a priority etc. But I’m still a fan of her.

There was someone commenting: Sonny is single right now!

Vanessa‘s reply: Sonny is always single when Brenda‘s in town! (I chuckled coz it reminded me of the Brenda vs Lilly story lol)

Seriously, though I personally don't think I would care about Brenda anymore if she was recast.  It's Vanessa or nothing.  The character was barely hanging on by a thread the last return and without VM I think it would go entirely off the rails.  I would still watch because I watch now lol, but I would not be happy about it.  I'd rather no Brenda than a recast.  I don't think Brenda is unrecastable or anything, but it would be over for me and I suspect the 10-20 Brenda fans still left out there.

Can they pay LV to stay off my screen to get JJ back?

    • I don't think Lois the character was there.  The Lois we knew from the 90s has pretty much died with this  Gio story crap.
    • Have to agree re MM. The goody two shoes character and writing doesn't help but maybe a more dynamic actor would help Brandon lift his game also. I found the song sequence a little OTT. First of all it should have been shorter and maybe the song fades out and just some music to accompany the montage. I think it would have worked better if Anita had have been alone after everyone left and started tinkling leading into the song, with Vernon coming in observing and then joining her for  a close moment. Everyone standing around felt a little too much. And that closing effect with the two blackscreens meeting was unnecessary. Just a fade out would have been enough.
    • HUGE THANK YOU FOR 1998-1999 EPISODES!!!

    • And sadly I think that’s the trivia Both Jeanne Cooper and Eric Braeden went with for years and years. Lol
    • But people were hating so bad on amc and the final year and the ratings sucked. Business wise they made the right call. Oltl who even gained some ratings back and weren’t they higher as GH at one point is a decision and never understood. 
    • Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
    • Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee. The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring? Bryton ?
    • Yep, that scene was at the conclusion of the Derek Thurston vs George Packard storyline, when Kay decided neither of them should run Chancellor.  By the time she put Victor in charge, Victor had been on the show for months & months with his Rolls Royce, his ranch, and Newman Enterprises.  SONY released some Y&R "trivia cards" in the late 1980s, and one of the questions was "who brought Victor Newman to Genoa City?" The answer on the back of the card is "Kay Thurston, to run Chancellor Industries", and it's a wrong answer lol.    
    • I think someone said it did exist, but I can't remember.
    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
