  4. I thought I'd hate the recasts, because I usually do, but I don't dislike them as much as I thought. Maddie is my favorite of them, though I wish she was doing more than just trying to get Casey back. Can we let Maddie do some more stuff? Maybe bring back Gwen and get that storyline going again?
