Gabi/Stefan 1.0 was enemies to lovers with Gabi rightfully hating Stefan for his role in sending her to prison which led to her assault that left her unable to conceive anymore children. I can't see the show retconning Chad to make him a villain like Stefan was back then, so the new chick's reasons for scamming Chad will read completely different than Gabi/Stefan if the show went that route. 4 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/133488-current-plots-discussion-ii-discussing-todays-episode-and-current-storylines/page/119/#findComment-8435173

brisbydog August 16 Share August 16 Such a good show today. Everything worked. Even characters I generally dislike like Paulina and Kristen. I'm very excited about this plot, not just for Xarah but the mess Brady is in, and the complexity of Fiona. I loved her performance today: real tears in Fiona's eyes as she listened to Jada say you can never understand why people do what they do. She's an addict but she's not evil. She is terrified of losing her son again and Brady is collateral damage. And now Maggie, seeing her beloved daughter go through what she once did. This is good soap writing. And not a Connie, Leo, Hattie or Bonnie in sight. 5 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/133488-current-plots-discussion-ii-discussing-todays-episode-and-current-storylines/page/119/#findComment-8435688

I didn't catch the entire episode but I did see that and was impressed. I love subtle acting and she brought it. Her stupid zebra print outfit, on the other hand, stank. It is SO BIZARRE seeing "Grandma Marlena" standing next to Mama Kristen 🤯 when Marlena seemed to only be five years older than Eileen's Kristen. They were contemporaries once, but now Doc seems 15 years older or more. A generation removed. How Marlena doesn't beat her with a lamp for daring to stand in her house after raping Eric AND Brady I will never know. I can *not* get over their scenes together. My brain cannot process it. I know Deidre isn't instructed to play seething rage to the hilt, but I imagine Doc clenching her teeth and clutching a butter knife every time crazy Kristen comes by.

If they seem like different generations that's because they're being played by actresses from completely different generations. However, I prefer to think that Kristen is at least 70 years old because it makes me giggle. (For what it's worth, Eileen Davidson is now 65.) In all honestly though, I think Kristen is probably supposed to be in her mid-50's, which her being late-40's when she had Rachel. Does it make any sense for her only be 10 years older than EJ given that she was trying to pass him off as her and John's baby? No, but that's soap for you.

I hope the writers do this as I always liked Melissa, even though I wasn't watching during her runs. I really liked Lisa Trusel whenever she comes to visit. With Sarah, Maggie and Holly* on canvas, Melissa and a recast Nathan would make perfect sense on canvas. * Holly is Melissa's adopted niece via Daniel; however, Ron is so odd when it comes to adoption that I don't know how he'll treat a Melissa/Holly connection. Considering the only thing we've known about Sarah for years was her close relationship with Melissa before Sarah was reintroduced to canvas, I assume/hope he would value their sisterly relationship. Of course this is all speculation. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/133488-current-plots-discussion-ii-discussing-todays-episode-and-current-storylines/page/119/#findComment-8436927
4evaQuez August 17 Share August 17 (edited) I have a random question. Let's say AnnaLynne McCord is Abigail. Would this be the most recasts of a Soap Opera Supercouple? Chabby actors: 1. Kate Mansi and Casey Deidrick (These two started the pairing and their big storyline, from memory, was whether Chad or Cameron would take her virginity). 2. Kate Mansi and Billy Flynn (Personally, I think these two by far got the best writing, had the best chemistry, and cemented Chabby as a powerhouse couple/ Supercouple). 3. Billy Flynn and Marci Miller 4. Maybe BIlly Flynn and AnnaLynne McCord. That would be two Chad actors and potentially three Abby actors. Marlena and the there Romans come close, but Marlena was never a supercouple with Josh's Roman; although, the show tried. (I'm counting Drake's time as Roman in this since he was Roman to the writers, actors, and audience for years before the retcon). Has any other supercouple had so many actors and still been viable with the audience?

It wasn't until Vivian entered Laura's life that Laura seemed to regain some mental faculties regarding her life and well-being. I don't understand Jack not knowing Laura. Even if he'd never visited Laura with Jennifer at the institution, I refuse to believe Jennifer had never shown him photos or that there weren't any photos in any of the Horton family albums. I mean this woman married two Horton men and technically had kids with two of them, if you include the years people believed Mike was Mickey's son. Yep she was. Tom/Alice with some Mickey/Maggie thrown in were the parental figures of Jennifer(same with MTW's Mike tbh). Bill and Laura were really strangers to her when it came down to it. 3 hours ago, methodwriter85 said: Yeah, it's a total con. Thank god because I would have been rolling my eyes at Jack having yet another errant daughter showing up. That would be giving Vicki Buchanan serious competition in the "children I never knew I had" department. Like, for someone like Stefano, I can buy that he would have all these random kids because of how the character was written. But Jack? Come on. Well Jack was gone for long periods of time him having a long-lost kid or two isn't that farfetched to me. I would buy it more pre-Jennifer than after her though given how he used to frequent prostitutes and other women back in the day. Stefano's long lost kids should've ended with Chad. There's no point in giving him long lost kids when he's no longer here. 4 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/133488-current-plots-discussion-ii-discussing-todays-episode-and-current-storylines/page/119/#findComment-8437245
SouthernChick August 17 Share August 17 I really like ALM and think she has good chemistry with BF. I don’t care if she turns out to be Abby or not. I just want her sticking around and exploring something legitimately with Billy. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/133488-current-plots-discussion-ii-discussing-todays-episode-and-current-storylines/page/119/#findComment-8437271

I just want her sticking around and exploring something legitimately with Billy. I think with Ron gone and if she chooses to stay then she will be Abby otherwise no. However I agree I think she should stay regardless because Chad doesn’t have other options here. 1 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/133488-current-plots-discussion-ii-discussing-todays-episode-and-current-storylines/page/119/#findComment-8437327

Whatever this storyline turns out to be, it probably won't be good, I fear. I love Annalynne, I've watched her on Nip/Tuck, 90210, Secrets and Lies. However, her "Dear Putin" video, which she was dragged for, is what I remember her for the most: "Dear Putin, If I Was Your Mother..." | Actress AnnaLynne McCord's Video Goes Viral | Russia-Ukraine - YouTube Edited August 20 by ASpring1900 1 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/133488-current-plots-discussion-ii-discussing-todays-episode-and-current-storylines/page/119/#findComment-8438919
