Some of the cast reunited to watch the Pilot.

Carly was helping Mike when she got attacked by Sorel's men. Sonny had refused to help Mike who had been relapsing. Jason wasn't around then.

Carly had that realization when she was in Florida. Carly: No. He left when I was, you know, just a little bit bigger than Michael. Haven't seen him since. It's funny, you know, I was supposed to be the miracle that saved their marriage. Oops! Wrong again. Ended up being just, just, uh, me and Mom. God, she loved me so much, Jason. Why couldn't I see that? She adopted me, she gave me a home, and she treated me just like I was her flesh and blood. And all I ever did was give her a hard time. Lie to her - all the time. Sneak out in the middle of the night. Curse her to her face. It was like, our whole relationsihp was like I was begging her to throw me out. To prove that she made a mistake by adopting me, you know? But she never saw it that way. She just, she just love me. No matter what. (pause) And when she came to Port Charles, she had just the best of intentions. To surprise her good pal, Bobbie Spencer. And, and what did she find out? The news that had already been there for two years, had wrecked Bobbie's marriage, had lied to everybody in town, had lied to her, just like always. And she tried to find a way to deal with it, to cope with it, to make sense of it...and I just got into a fight with her again. Like nothing had changed. Except this time it was too much. She couldn't take it. (pause) I killed my mother...and I just, I don't know any way that I can make that right... Carly: I'm sorry I never thanked you for everything you gave me. I don't know how I managed to convince myself that Bobbie could love me more than you did. Or why I couldn't see that the mother I had dreamed of was the mother I already had.(a pause, she looks at the flowers and places them on the grave) I love you, Mama. I didn't say that enough. And I didn't show you the way I should have. [...] You know, when, um, I found out I was adopted, all I could think about was that I had this real mother out there somewhere. But Virginia Benson was my real mother.

Even if Jason left the mob he would still be around Carly and Sonny.

The song was called "I do" and sang by Scott Bennett. I loved them back in the day.

Y&R suffered a huge loss in viewers when Shemar Moore left way back when. There was even an email going around back in the day where execs were wondering what was going on with the ratings. CBS used him and VR a lot in promoting the show. Not just in the US either.

Bill Bell didn't like writing for children characters. They were either shipped off to boarding school, sorased, or only brought out for s/l purposes. Cassie was an anomaly because Bill Bell was found of CG.

She did ask for a divorce after she lost the baby. She kicked Nick out. He just moved into the ranch and was forever in her face about reuniting. The writers have never really written her outside of the Newman orbit. Even when she was married to Jack, RS style s/l happened. So they could milk the Jack/Phyllis/Nick/Sharon quad for all it's worth. The last decade it's been hack writers pushing various agendas. Sharon forever in "crazy mode" and doing unforgivable things.

Jack Smith wrote Cassie dying. Cassie was killed off in May 2005. LML became a creative consultant in November 2005. She became HW in February 2006. It's when CBS seized control of YR and pushed Bill Bell's team out.

Yes, she was close to Brian. He said he missed her on the show after SD left. From what I read the cast had their own bts drama outside of Shannen. Other actresses talked about the vibe on set being off. Brian supposedly didn't do the reunion special because the way Vanessa Marcil was treated.

Love her. I guess it was a "you had to be there type of thing" because from the moment I discovered BH90210...Brenda/SD was my fave. Never knew she was disliked plus Charmed was on and I loved Prue. Brenda had her moments but she wasn't a bitch.

Erica's infamous speech. Epic! Watched quite a bit of the 1996 episodes and the show was pretty dark in tone. Greg interrupts Jenny/Tony wedding. Greg/Jenny wedding.

I really miss AMC. It's still upsetting how the show was run into the ground by tptb. https://youtu.be/PNy0zqeTImk
