Toronto is a 2 hour flight from Atlanta so even if she didn't move, it would be an easy commute. I also think her exit from Y&R had more to do with them clearly not wanting her than anything else. They treated her like garbage the first time her contract was up (hence Hilary's death). I can't imagine it got any better the second time.

That's the problem: the casting called for actors to be based in Atlanta, meaning, they don't want actors having the commute to work. They want them IN Atlanta for shooting purposes (per TV Insider: "All roles are contract players and must be Atlanta residents. The show is set to commence taping in November.") So, if she did take a role and did not relocate, it may be a guest/recurring one. None of the Steve Burton treatment (The Young and the Restless). They want their actors local for access purposes.

And per her own admission, Morgan wanted to spend more time with her family following tragedies and COVID. Could her mind have changed? Possibly, but is also could not have.

And so it begins…

It’s been a minute, but it’s time to get back to it. My gratitude could not be any deeper to the Soap Opera icon (and my dear friend) @michelevaljean for your vision, courage and joy in creating this groundbreaking project. The first new soap in over 20 years, y’all!

To @msttunie and @theonlydaphneeduplaix my heart is just exploding. What a gift to be cast opposite both of you.

To my @cbstv family I am so proud to be back. To @therealkimcoleman - thank you thank you thank you. And to @creativetalentcompany and @buchwaldtalent thank you for seeing me for so long.

Let’s go!!!!!

(Extra shout out to my partner in all things @hh_john_djoser_r for saying yes to this adventure. Big vision. Big changes. Big rewards. We are blessed.

This is without a doubt my proudest career moment. I’m beyond grateful to everyone one who helped make this happen. First and foremost @therealkimcoleman for believing in me and pushing for me. All the executive producers & #CBS. My magical manager who believed it was mine before the breakdowns even came out @lachrisbook my agent @hollywoodsouth #WeDidIt #NeverGiveUp #CBS #BeyondTheGates #DaytimeTelevision #SoapOperas

Tamara Tunie just made me go from will check this out to must watch. Tunie is not only an awesome actress, she is also grounded and brings depth to all the material I have seen her work with.

I have watched the premieres in my lifetime of Sunset Beach, Port Charles, and Passions. This feels different. Tamara Tunie being cast feels different. We may have pretty people here but they are not going to just be pretty people. Looking forward to this! They aren’t just looking for flash and over the top.

I know lots of us are wishing for Victoria Rowell, but I wonder if she would be happier directing on a show like this than acting. She was pushing so hard for bts representation at Y&R, and I know she knows how to work within the soap camera setup. She might be able to bring in some of that Bell glamour and lushness from her experiences there.

Quoting the end of Karla's IG post:  "Extra shout out to my partner in all things @hh_john_djoser_r for saying yes to this adventure. Big vision. Big changes. Big rewards. We are blessed"

Sounds like Karla's life partner John (father of her children) is on board with "this adventure", and I would *speculate* that either she or all of them will be moving to Atlanta or spending lots of time there?

    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
