Y&R: Amy Lewis Returning

[Khan]

Frankly, I'd rather see Valarie Pettiford (and Stephanie E. Williams) join the cast of BTG.  They don't need to be on this sinking ship of a soap opera.

[Chris B]

I do find it funny that Y&R and GH are trying to boost their Black presence as we lead up to The Gates premiere. I wish it was genuine, but you know it won't last, they're just trying to hold onto their audience.

[Vee]

Is GH though? Who are they adding? Where is Trina's story?

[Liberty City]

They're likely referring to the hiring of Sawandi Wilson as Isaiah Gannon.

[Vee]

Oh, that guy. He's cute but the gratuitous possible OLTL angle (and the likelihood that they will  just throw him at that fembot playing Jordan for some C-plot) already made me check out.

[Liberty City]

I give a single snap for at least bringing back a [former] character, and not just creating a new one for the Hell of it. But it's clearly a reach for try and compete with Beyond the Gates. And yet, Brytni Sarpy was still wasted.

[BoldRestless]

Just saw this.

Yeah, this is a mess. She'll be nothing like Amy and may as well be a new character. Comical.

Theories: 

• In anticipation of BTG, Josh Griffith literally asked the Y&R historian for a list of past African American characters and is randomly bringing them back. (TBH this is the most likely.)
• She's bringing Paul back from Portugal. (Not gonna happen!)
• She was a PI, is now a cop and will be Chance's boss if he goes back to the force (They might even create a tiny office for her that can only be filmed from one angle!)
• Something to do with Nathan and Nate. (Maybe they will bring Nathan back from the dead

The long-term with GH seems to be phasing out any black characters, including probably the most popular black character they ever had. I do think of the current black character group Jordan is probably the only one they will keep, and TJ, I suppose.

This 1,000 Percent.

[Vee]

Both ciphers.

What a plot right out of the Valentini GH playbook. It’s a name from the past! She will  sprinkle some nostalgia tidbits around and immediately feel out of place because the ties are not there.

[DramatistDreamer]

Y&R, if they cared to genuinely get some engagement with potential fans of the upcoming soap, would figure out a resurrection story for Hilary. Just in the time of mentioning this I came up with one lol.

Well, you're the dramatist dreamer, and JG is the dull drama plodder.
