OK, finally firgured it out.

When I checked the Xfinity/Comcast grid last week, The 2-3 PM slot was marked "Bold & the Beautiful." I set it to record, but hadn't checked "repeat episodes."

Only later -- this weekend or today -- did the grid update to list "BTG: Welcome to the Neighborhood" from 2-2:30. I did set that to record on my DVR.

Plus, if I recall, during an interview with The Locher Room, Lindstrom did mention he'd seen what she'd written and credited how well it was. So I'd assume their closeness played a significant part in it, as well.

Of course, Lindstrom has been close with MVJ for ages.  But that is in terms of mutual respect.

Jon Lindstrom wrote a novel about Hollywood mobsters called "Hollywood Hustle".
He's spent a lot of the past year or two promoting it and appearing at book signings etc.

So he has a personal interest in fictional mobster topics, maybe?

There is also (possibly) Guza's influence, in a small way maybe? (just speculating) as he wrote mobster stuff for GH

It is what it is. People want to hire their friends - both Karla Mosley and Lindstrom seem to have landed on this show because of their friendships with MVJ. As with any nepotistic association, I just hope both actors are good in these roles.

IKR. I am tempted to go back over the character notes due to the name changes that others have mentioned and theorized about for the changes, but I feel the same...that the changes might be to give us the audiences more surprises and I want to be surprised. Very well done that they make one want to do it though. 

 

This as well. They have been filming for months. Who knows what other new unknown casting is coming. I know I saw a picture yesterday of someone who I didn't know so...

One can even say Mike Manning landed his gig through his work on The Bay considering Gregori J. Martin is a breakdown writer on the show. Again, one can say. That doesn't mean I'm saying that.

I’d love it if they buck the trend and release very little in the way of spoilers. 

It seemed like the casting was taken very seriously from what Sheila Ducksworth has said. Kim Coleman was very involved in the casting of the principal cast per Ducksworth. 

Rob Decina, who oversees NY Casting for CBS, also seemed very involved from what some of the actors have said. For those who remember, he was also GL’s final Casting Director - so another tie to the old P&G soap legacy.

re: the discussion of Cady McClain's hairstyle and reddish color, beginning on page 304 of this thread...

I see from this photo Cady uploaded Feb. 6

She does have full bangs. but I guess they can be swept to the sides and almost invisible in some circumstances, and combed out to full bangs in other circumstances.

We'll soon find out. TV listings services usually update their breakdowns when the publicists send out their emails on Friday.

    • It’s strange. I wonder if the writers at that time had worked with him somewhere else and had a relationship? That time is murky AF to find info on. Rachel Ames in effect left the show at one point in the early 80’s and she is credited like she was there until JFP. Tristan Rogers also took various contract breaks that were not short, and websites also credit him one long stint from 1981-1992. So many people come and go in short succession in 1982-part of 1983. I know they lost a lot of viewers when Genie left, but the show somehow survived yearly at number one through like sheer force of will.
    • In that way, at least we were fortunate.  The Daniel Pilon/Ron Raines decisions...not so much.
    • Letting Brennan put it in yet again while smirking over his shoulder... any day now! She's got him just where she wants him! I do think ol' Jack will be dead by February at the absolute latest. They have set him up as a counter-heavy to Sidwell, forcing poor Joss to work his next scheme or threatening to have her sent down for treason. Once he croaks I still deeply fear we will be subject to Valentin and Carly, partners in crime to lovers, possibly out to find out 'who killed Jack'. Anna was at her best keeping Sonny at arm's length and often somewhat cold, which she only really did (for better or worse) off and on during Carlivati's tenure. But Finola gradually got too emotional over Sonny, Jason, etc. and was allowed to do that onscreen too much long ago. Mulcahey brought some of that steel back, though Finola still managed to choke or quietly sob through some of that material as Anna found her way there lol. She's a brilliant actress and she did a good job with that stuff in '24, but now we're back to the same old and it humiliates the character whether she knows it or not.
    • Listen, I am all for Laura Wright wearing silly wigs and glasses if there was a point.  So far she's just been nice to Brennan and made out with him.  How evil lol!!  Even though I have been told Brennan loves her the writing was never there.  It's so low stakes.  Carly should maybe talk to her daughter and have an adult conversation instead. Laura and Anna look foolish.  I really don't have an issue with either being friendly or at least having some affection for Sonny.  I don't get both of them wanting to have a parade to announce how much they love him and how valuable the friendship is.  C'mon, Laura basically tolerated Sonny because of Luke until Lulu/Dante got together.  Anna likes Sonny because Robin did?  There really isn't much more of a reason for Anna to give him the time of day besides that.  They aren't lifelong buddies.
    • It is so dumb and is dragging on already after a couple weeks. By the time Carly wraps this up Joss will be running the local branch office. And yes, Laura deserves better. It's like they tripled down on this Sonny apologia stuff with her and Anna after the Mulcahey saga.
    • A white twunk with no purpose?? On Days of our Lives??!!
    • It feels like the show hired Hank Northrop first and are still deciding what to do with him lol. I don't have a judgement on the character yet, but this non-story (so far) has been happening for at least a month and he's only made 2 appearances lol. Also, this may be a stupid question, but is Chad's name really Chadwick?  I can't find any evidence of that in a quick google search, so I assume it's just a silly nickname Leo calls him?  I feel like I've heard other characters (EJ?) call him that though too.
    • I know Anita mentioned that she no longer was investing in the trust, while Leslie had stated that the interest was multiplying at a decent rate... but I do have a feeling she'll wipe through the trust in a short amount of time with the amount of spending she's doing. The show always throws in tiny nuggets of foreshadowing and having Anita's remark and Eva warning her mother not to overdo the spending tells me that Leslie will be blowing through that money eventually.
    • I honestly don't care if Laura is friends with Sonny.  She's been friends with him for decades.  The way she goes about the friendship is stupid.   She has no sense of self-preservation or awareness about the optics of parading her friendship with Sonny around town.  She practically celebrates it.  There's no reason in the world she can't just keep the friendship low key and explain they share a grandchild and frame the relationship that way.  A lot of Laura's choices, like getting into a public fight with Dalton, just make her look silly and like a fairly incompetent mayor. Carly is another PC lady that's starting to look silly.  I know she's explained her plan a lot, but it's still stupid and moving at a glacial pace.  If Joss is 45 by the time her revenge plot unfolds, what's the point?  Just dump Brennen and move on please.
    • On that same note, it's astounding to have mobster Sonny in the same office with Mayor Laura chatting it up about their mutual grandson. Think about the reaction if John Gotti and Mayor Eric Adams had a friendship

      ?? I guess the Logic behind Sonny & Jason acceptance is like when i saw a documentary where FBI agents said they'd rather deal with the mafia than terrorists or cartels---they're the "lesser of 3 evils". Anyway I'm about 30 years late on this convo.
