Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Oh! *light bulb* That must be where he first met Diana Scarwid (Karen from WF.) She rocked in that role, although I didn't quite buy Modell's change of heart.

Oh! Largo comes through with the Terri Brock backstory! I'd forgotten all about Shaun Cassidy. That was impressive, Largo!

What can I say? Some people collect comic books....

Speaking of DAYS/GH connections: who is responsible for Luke & Laura (GH), the pre-WGA strike part of the Ice Princess story (GH), Jennifer Horton (DAYS), Roman & Marlena (DAYS), the Salem Strangler (DAYS), and the Brady and DiMera clans (DAYS)? Yep. Pat Falken Smith. And Leah Laiman and Thom Racina (who came up w/ Mikkos Cassadine's weather machine), who wrote the actual nuptials for L&L (GH), also wrote the bulk of the Shane/Kimberly, Patch/Kayla, Bo/Hope, Jack/Jennifer, Roman/Diana, and Justin/Adrienne romances (DAYS).

GL fans detest her, "Ryan's Hope" fans probably spit on her grave, but DAYS and GH fans have a lot to thank PFS for.

ETA: GL fans also detest Sheri Anderson, and she worked on all those stories on DAYS and GH!

They don't really seem to know what to do with Alexis, which is a damn shame.

I really, really like the Ric/Alexis pairing though. they just need to stop fucking with it.

thanks, Cindy! i remembered most of those.

Stephan needs to come back. his rivalry with Luke was so much fun. for that matter, i wish GH would do a time warp and have Sonny and Luke reunite. because that friendship way back when was fabulous. Lucky's alive dammit! reconcile!

my perfect GH scenario is to have Jonathon Jackson come back to the role of Lucky. he was my OTL and no one else has compared. not to mention bring Brenda back and either have her and Sonny stop fighing their love or de-lobotomize Jax and have those two crazy kids work it out.

there could be some fun meta with how much Kelly Monaco and Vanessa Marcil look alike.

Sam's dad, compulsive gambler Cody McCall, owed money to Harlan Barrett. Unable to pay off his debts, however, Cody made the ugly decision to abduct his newborn daughter and give her to Barrett, who in turn handed her over to his unsuspecting wife, whose own daughter had been stillborn. And Barrett's wife named the child...Brenda.

There. Done.

Okay, topic.

Has Tim ever written under the name "Chris Baena"? If so, then I think I've been a fan of his since "Mike Hammer, Private Eye."

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yes.

Whoot. Got long overdue oil change, grocery shopped, cleaned out fridge, cleaned cat box, took out trash, all before 9AM. Go Team Allyson.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You were SORASed!
Maybe I should have just been recast.

What is even happening?

my perfect GH scenario is to have Jonathon Jackson come back to the role of Lucky. he was my OTL and no one else has compared.
Oh, yeah.
Maybe I should have just been recast.
Who's been feeding Cass the casting spoilers? This thread is NAFDA, man.

That was impressive, Cindy. But you forgot!

Robin Christopher, who played the 2nd Lorna Devon on AW, has played Skye on AMC, OLTL and GH.

Robin Mattson, who used to play Gina on Santa Barbara, returned to GH last year, reuniting her with...

Jed Allan was the best and most famous of the CC Capwells on Santa Barbara. He used to play Don Craig on DOOL, until one day he went out to mail a letter and never returned. He now plays Edward Quartermaine on GH. You might ask...what the hell happened to the guy who's was already EQ?

John Ingle is now on DOOL, playing Mickey Horton. Replacing the retired John Clarke who was Mickey Horton for as long as most have been alive.
