Give us new and exciting stewards of the shows, too. People who care about the history and want to give the fans what they want, not kill momentum with some big legal flounce. <br /><br />We've already had decades of producers, network heads et al that didn't listen or didn't care about the end result. Let's give that a rest, too.

Not the first time they've got everyone riled up by one of their cockamamie ideas. Recasting all three roles for the new OLTL is a terrible idea on top of being just spiteful and nasty to three actors who've all given good years to OLTL.

A bit confusing but as someone who did not follow the OLTL characters to Port Charles my initial reaction is to think that the actors' loyalties should lie with the soap that launched them, namely OLTL, however unrealistic that may be. In a perfect world Roger, Kristen and Michael could appear as their Llanview characters on both shows, but I won't hold my breath on that one. At least we'll have Viki & Clint, Dorian & David, and Bo & Nora.....and I'm still hoping Ilene Kristen's Roxy will show up!veggieburgermeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978402532318137066noreply@blogger.com
