They got the characters back when they demanded them back, the only thing they couldn't get was the actors to agree to return, in RH's case sign on long term but that's not something ABC has any control over. If ABC bringing back the actors as new characters is the reason why PP is suing like I suspect, they need to suck it up and accept that they will have to recast the roles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-41867560198496075912013-04-19T00:28:25.328-04:002013-04-19T00:28:25.328-04:00Smart move by Prospect Park, need the money, ABC h...Smart move by Prospect Park, need the money, ABC has it.

There seems to be something more to all of this. What's the scoop?
