I can’t wait to see the drama between Phyliss, Avery their Dad! This is going to be good!
hmmmm sounds sort of interesting………..
Yes,Ken Howard is a wonderful actor …I’ve seen him in all the a fore mentioned shows as well as the miniseries The Thorn Birds.
He will be a welcome addition to Y&R,I look forward to this storyline.
Wow, great casting! MELROSE PLACE fans will remember Ken Howard as Jane & Sydney’s father. The great casting would continue if Y&R were to cast fellow Melrose alum, Donna Mills … who played Jane’s mother … in the role of Phyllis & Avery’s mom! Let the ratings climb begin!!!
Hmmm….THAT would be interesting casting.
I’ve always thought that Kathleen Noone would be great as Phyllis’ mother.
just to bring on an intelligent actor… like kathleen Noone… wasn’t she the best on all my children and passions! great choice to play mom… i actually like avery and phyllis as sisters.. great dynamics…
Not one character under the Maria Arena Bell regime has worked – the cast is too bloated now – another new character is just going to suck BIG time!!
MAB and her writers need to go POST HASTE!!
