SOD: Coming Home


Guza said he never lied for any of the possible returns through the years but this time it came through. They've (GH and Marcil) been talking non-stop this time. He saw the story a few months ago and talks started heating up btw them.
Insiders say Marcil is back for one year. Guza allows that she's back for "many, many months and perhaps longer." He says they have real time to tell story, this is not a 6 week thing, "it's an extended run."

Brenda demands attention when she returns to the scene on 8/11. The 3 people she has played the most with - Sonny, Jason and Jax - are all in damaged states. They'll be pivotal in what happens w/Brenda. So many marquee matchups. Carly is going to hate Brenda. Guza is excited about LW and VM. Sonny's son, Dante. Q's. Her goddaughter Brook. She's going to play w/everybody.

Will she play w/Franco? Guza allows it can't be a coincidence that Franco also has ties to Paris, where Brenda currently lives. That's all he's giving.

Guza adds that Brenda, as always, has baggage and she'll be dumping it on PC. She has a major secret which she doesn't know is a major secret. Guza hasn't even told Vanessa what the secret is.

Ratings? Guza says they're pulling out all the stops. Movie stars. Returning stars (one of the biggest). They're doing another spectacular Franco run. Vanessa is going to come right in on that. He hopes new viewers who tune in for Franco will see Vanessa and stick around for her story. He thinks longtime fans will be happy w/what's coming up.

yup it's official guza has lost his damn mind. 

Ain't that the freaking truth, Kiss. Question...what new viewers who tune in for Franco? Nobody watched the first time he was on. Longtime fans will only be happy when you pull your heads out of your ass and give us Liason. Until then, nada!!
