I would replace Trina with Emma Drake.

TJ can go.

Finn can go.

Marshall is the first person who should go.

I would keep Jordan.

I love Agent Cates. He should stay.

I just started to like Dex. He should stay.

I like Cody now too. Please stay.

Willow is part of Team Carly, so I think she will make the cut.

Kristina is my favorite character on the show and can never be on enough.

Drew should go.

Sasha should stay, but I think the show might drop her.

Joss isn't going anywhere.

Sam should stay.

BLQ should stay.

Maxie is getting better and should stay.

Chase and Curtis can stay or go. I don't care which.

Nina should stay.

I hate Ava and want her gone.

Lucy, Robert, and Olivia should go. The show would lose nothing by their departure.

I am sure Frank Valentini and Disney Television Group would love for Brooklyn Rae Silzer to return, but I think they also want Patrick & Robin back with her, and I don't see that happening without recasting both of those roles. One would be fine to recast and one would likely get Prospect Studios set ablaze. I wouldn't mind Emma back, along with Lila Rae Alcazar.

People asking, continuously, for recurring players to be cut are not doing anything effective. Recurring is pay-per-appearance, so cutting them wouldn't free the canvas up at all. It's the regulars that need to be cut down.

I'm not averse to the idea of Robin dying (off-screen) and (recast) Patrick returning with a now-teenaged Emma. I'll always adore KMc, but it's clear she's not coming back (at least, not permanently); and if the only way to get grown up Emma back on the canvas is to bring at least one parent back with her, then....  *shrug

That would be where I would take Joss and I think Eden could play that just fine.

I think you could easily say Emma was going to PCU and staying with Anna or Robert.  I could see just avoiding the Robin/Patrick situation for now even if GH/FV wants both back.  BRS was around long enough for viewers to be attached to her without her parents.

Considering Silzer appeared LAST YEAR, I doubt she's "retired." If anything, she's focused on schooling. I don't see them recasting her, either. If they wanted to, they would have already. Valentini/ABC/Disney Television Group are dedicated to Silzer. That's clear.

I agree, but returning Patrick would return a former doctor to the hospital, which would be needed with cutting Easton's Finn. But I agree: Emma could exist without her parents, but I just don't see TPTB wanting that from her.

She did an interview less than a year ago saying she wanted to go to college in California so she could continue to appear on GH

There is nothing anywhere about her wanting to retire.  Just that she was planning on going to nursing school as well.

 

That's fair.  You could probably recast Patrick then.

Nevertheless, I would stop using most of the current recurring cast members (minus the exceptions that I listed upthread).  In many cases, there wouldn't even be an official explanation.  They'd just stop appearing.

But, please, not with Brandon Beemer, lol.

But could she still make Joss empathetic enough that viewers would love to hate her and not just hate her?  As good as actresses like Eileen Fulton and Susan Lucci were at playing vixens, they also had that quality that nonetheless made them endearing to audiences.  IDK whether Eden McCoy has that same quality.

    • Well, they usually weren't on the show at the time for long until the late 90's. But yeah, they really deserved a story centered on them, and not through the lens of Reva.
    • Chelsea was doing the absolute most today! Why was she introducing her sister to a woman she doesnt know? That whole scene was embarrassing. Madison needs to stay away from her bc she is too immature
    • Gosh, what a waste with Lunacy. Why have her live with $B, reveal Finn, pardon her, etc What makes this story incredibly hollow is that what Luna is asking isn't unreasonable - to spend time with her cousin father. She's not asking to move in with them. How hard with it be for Finn to throw her a bone by, say, I'll meet you for lunch/coffee once at week at the hospital cafeteria. Lunacy isn't going to hurt Finn. In fact, all her crimes were related to finding her father and it turns out to be someone she's loved her entire life. Instead of course-correcting the nonsense of last summer, Brad somehow found a way to make this worse! That's a skill... Of all the younger actors B&B has cast during the past 5 years, LY has shown the most growth and range. Why get rid of her? 
    • On the subject of sets (seems more interesting to discuss than the actual show)  Some sets we don't see anymore Lauren/Michael apartment (haven't seen that in years) Victoria's house (are Marian/Tessa living there?) Apartment above Crimson Lights (I think Chelsea was the last resident) Penthouse (Lily's home) Chancellor Estate (Devon/Abby) Chancellor office (once Dark Horse) Nick's house GCAC room (used as residence/hotel room for several characters) Some of these may pop up again. The tack house,for example, was not seen for many months before being used again. Have I missed anything?
    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point.
