Guza was a shit. I don't ever dispute that. But the practice of an original actor reclaiming a role is just, right or wrong, part of the business. Tyler Christopher benefited from that same practice, as did both Peter Reckell and Wayne Northrop on Days.

I'm offended you did not include Dante acting about his marriage the way Daria treats her school volleyball game in the opening credits of the show. :p I only focused on the Jason reveal bc that's what the show considers it's A story. BM, KeMo, LW, BH, JT, have dominated the screen. That is what Frank and Co. were banking on and still are. Morgan was just on so Bryan can get his Emmy reel ready before the final Dec. 20-something submission date!But, of course, the Dante/Lulu/Valerie story is also a huge fail because there's no LOVE. Cheating stories are usually devastating because X and Y still deeply love each other. These stories don't work when there are apathetic parties.

There are few EPs who are able to cut costs more - who are they gonna find who isn't new, when new is something the network has no interest in? They want people who know the job and will stay out of their hair. I think it's Dollar General Valentini or the axe for the whole thing. The Varni mention makes me doubt the whole thing because it smacks of someone picking up on Internet chatter, where Varni (who, granted, clearly loves to put himself out there) is elevated to a much larger power position in order to deflect blame off Ron Carlivati and onto everyone and anyone else.
