Well they seem avoidant on playing the affair longer and definitely on Drew and Nina getting serious which I feel would have happened before the writer change on both fronts. 

 

I admit that while I can't stand to look at Sonny right now, I have greatly enjoyed how he has been there for Alexis and allowed her to lean on him. The chemistry is still there.

I think it's too late, predominantly because it is clear this team has zero rooting interest in Drew or especially Nina who can barely buy airtime these days. If they were going to invest in it they'd be doing so. At least with Sonny out of her life Nina is no longer getting ritualistically humiliated by the entire cast twice a week as retribution via Korte.

I do think Drew Q gives good political animal or scoundrel under either regime, but I just don't think they will invest in it or give him enough layers back. So at this point I'd let him run its scheming course for as long as possible over the next however many months, then kill him.

They actually did do Sam/Jason dirty with that non-wedding.  After everything they went through.  I know it was supposed to be their "laid-back" style, but it was a disservice to their fans.

I thought Brad was related to some of those characters which seemed liked an opening to bring more on, but I guess it was dropped like most things.

 

So it seems like it would be extremely easy to bring these characters on?  What a miss when there are so few Asian characters on any soap.

I honestly have zero interest in another round of pointless Look What We Did guest cameos from old characters like Jade or her husband. I'd much rather see other new relatives or acquaintances from the AQ brought on and invested in seriously. Then down the road if Tia Carrere needs a paycheck, why not. (I always liked her in Wayne's World.)

And Relic Hunter.  Relic Hunter was sort of like a combination of Lara Croft and Xena, and not well done, but I adored Tia Carrere in the role.
In general, I appreciate kick-butt female characters, which is why I loved the original Anna Devane before she was watered down.

I am not really interested in bringing Yank and Jade back or anything long term, but children (teens/young adults) related to them would interest me.  I do believe both Yank and Jade worked at the hospital so they could be useful in a recurring sense in that way as well.  Tbh, I am not sure if Yank and Jade ever even left PC or GH.  They just work off screen lol. Of course, the thing this show needs is more characters lol.

    • It really made Oscar the Doorman seem like an imbecile.   I think the show's unusual format & subject manner is what makes EON often seem less "dated" and "old-fashioned" than other shows from that time period.  It never attempted to be especially "trendy" or "modern" -- and its film noir style is pretty timeless.  
    • Dallas, Dynasty, Knots and Falcon Crest all had good runs but by 85 they had seen better days. I think they were a victim of the format. After several seasons seeing the same characters front and center viewers were bored. What was once fascinating grew predictable. JR, Alexis etc had to be front and center and after a while their schemes and shtick grew repetitive. JR remarrying Sue Ellen, Alexis constantly trying to get he better of Blake etc Unlike daytime, there wasn't the flexibility to bring in other stories and characters and maybe let the likes JR go backburner. That same mentality also invaded daytime with characters like  Sonny and Victor still peddling the same stuff after decades. I guess the same could be said for MSW eg every week Jessica encounters a crime and solves it,but I think viewers come to that format with a different mindset.
    • Daphnee and Trisha did a live stream on Instagram and confirmed they find out if the show gets picked up in May. This pretty much confirms they're on the primetime schedule like the Bell soaps. Fingers crossed we get a multi-year renewal announcement soon!  https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJSsYb7PDv8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==        
    • 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 ?
