Sucked: Laura Kirk The old Laura was street-smart and tough. With the recast, she became whiny and pathetic. I've only seen the original Laura in a 3rd season Buffy episode. They couldn't get her back? Rocked: Kendall Hart I looooooved Sarah Michelle Gellar in that part. So much that I was prepared to instantly hate the poor unfortunate soul that got her old part. Who knew? Alicia Minshew is excellent in this role and has easily made it her own. Although I swear she channels SMG in her line delivery every now and then.

I was pretty disgusted when I heard he'd been recast, and then when I heard he'd been recast again, I was so annoyed. But then I got the pleasant surprise of Pierce #3, Maxwell Caulfield. Whheeeee!!!! Michael Carrington/Miles Colby!!!!! Help me, I'm obsessed. Sucked: That guy who played Tad for about a week. Does anyone else remember the blond nightmare? Sucked: the Bianca before this one. Especially the part where she whined publically about Eden Reigel getting publicity and an Emmly nod from what she'd started (eating disorder storyline.) Hey, look at me not knowing people's names....Bad fan.

Jill Lawson is a very good actress but her character is like nails on a chalkboard! So-So: Jake Martin #5. JEP has his moments but he tends to overact. Sucked: Jake Martin #4. Too smarmy. Sucked: Scott Chandler #4. What the...? Sucked: Scott Chandler #3. Daniel Cosgrove was way too hunky. 90210 suited him better. Just Right: Scott Chandler #2. Actually acted like he was raised by Stuart. HOT: Skye Chandler #3. That is all.

I liked her introduction into the character. She was on for months as Toni Kinder held captive by Erica's evil physical therapist* along with Janet only to have Erica captured as well later and instantly recognize Toni as Skye. I loved that. Have you ever noticed how if you separate therapist into two different words, you get "the rapist"? An episode of Three's Company* of all things pointed that out to me.

And wow, we've veered off topic. Recasts! Uh... I'm throwing the new Tim into the "sucked" category. Big, black, floppy ears and he'd be a dead ringer for Goofy. Rocked: Eden Riegel. Good actress. Can be a sympathetic character when she's not channeling Erica like she is right now. Which is why I'm having a hard time liking her at the moment.

Let me work my way backwards. Eden Riegel - present Girl Who's Name I Can't Remember - during most of anorexia storyline - Gina Gallagher - has the distinction of playing Bianca the longest, 4 years, and was on during most of SMG's reign of Kendall. Lacey Chabert - right before Gina Gallagher; she was on right up to Kendall's revelation that she was Erica's daughter; I think she left to do PO5. Another Girl Who's Name Escapes Me - played Binks as a child; is the kid who lit the Jackson doll at the crotch. Any other kid before that was probably of the toddler/infant stage.

She was Laurel's daughter. Her entire run on the soap consisted of sitting and staring. And screeching if someone tried to touch her. I'm sure you can imagine how fun it was to listen to her screech. I guess you though SMG and MT played sisters on AMC as well as Buffy, but no. They never had scenes together. Natalie Paulding, yes. She was the girl in the anorexic storyline.

I'm still trying to decide about the new Tim. He's cute, but he's so freaking energetic. He needs a depressing arc (she says, even though he's in town to donate his liver to a baby...). I feel the same as kari on the SMG vs AM Kendall-- I was prepared to hate Minshew, and damn, I love her to pieces. The actress still overacts it sometimes, but she wouldn't be on a soap if she didn't.

Whichever one was deathly pale and prissy-sounding. I can see her in my head wearing riding jodphers, talking to Dimitri.

At any rate, here's a link to a picture of Gina Gallagher. It's a group shot of Bianca, Erica, Kendall and Mona. It's kind of cute, actually. Here's one of Lacey Chabert. You've got to scroll down a little bit to get to hers. As for Nathalie Paulding, I couldn't find a picture of her. Hopefully, the looking at the other two will help you narrow it down.

I will henceforth refer to her as Vampire Bianca. I can't remember if it was for Eden Riegel's Emmy nom, or for Susan Lucci's win, but I remember that Nathalie gave some statements to someone that she should receive credit for it, since she was responsible for making the anorexia storyline so successful. Ok, whatever. Let's stake her.

In a way, I guess, she was kind of responsible-- I'm sure Emmy voters took into account how much harder Susan had to work to make up for the crappy craptasticness of that kid.
