Quote BellaMia: Quote EZRA511: Quote BellaMia: Quote wannazach: My favorite Zoe Scene was also very sad  It was when he was beat up and lying in the park and JR just left him there hurt. I was in tears. Nothing that emotional anymore. I agree wannazach. He had me laughing and crying every day. Loved the scenes with Zoe and her mother too. Jeff and the actress who played his mother were both fabulous! So real, and so heartwrenching. And Zoe's very last scene, reading the letter from her father, was a KILLER! I just wanted to shove my hand through the TV and wipe away all of Zoe's tears and give her a big hug!!  MY GOD..I WAS just going to write about that LETTER BEING HIS BEST SCENE...SO WELL SAID BELLA!! That letter was heart breaking!! Yeah, if I would have been Eden Riegel (Bianca) in that scene with Jeffrey, I would have totally lost it! Those tears were just flowing from his eyes in that scene! OMG, what an actor! that was one of my main favroit scenes. it was deffinitly a heart renching moment when those tears came streaming down from his eyes and the whole scene was like so real and jc he did it so amazingly well. |

Yes, he didn't just play the part of Zoe, he actually BECAME Zoe in those scenes. That's what is called "great acting." |

Yes, It would definitely have to be JC back as Zoe. If they ever try to recast that part!!! (about to blow a fuse here) I have a limit and THAT would be too too too much! NEVER EVER would I watch again... |

Jeffrey IS Zoe! No one else could ever come close! |

Quote BellaMia: Jeffrey IS Zoe! No one else could ever come close! That ranks up there with them EVER trying to RECAST ERICA,JOE, PALMER and ADAM.... SOME ACTORS just OWN THOSE ROLES!! |

I don't agree Zoe would not help ratings,she wasn't popular,I know she has alot of fans on here but the truth is most viewers wouldn't welcome a return.I haven't seen people requesting her on other boards when asked who they would like to return.She was mean't to be a short-term character and I can't see them changing that,but JC could be another character. |

Bianca is always a draw for viewers and would definitely help,as for LH that's good news for her she's a great actress and seems to be getting more work than Eden.Bam aren't definitely over because of this,I don't think LH's contract is a very long one especially if the character is just being brought in to cause trouble,they never seem to last long-term.And I wouldn't be suprised if Maggie did turn up in PV if Bianca does ever return full-term (a recast is also a possibility).AMC made a mistake not snapping LH up when they had the chance and this is Y&R's gain. Bianca IS coming back full-time, and NOT with Maggie! Sorry! Eden Riegel has already signed a contract for her OWN role on AMC. As far as people not liking Zoe or the transgender storyline, you must be reading different boards than I am. To say people didn't like the Zoe storyline is ridiculous. Like any storyline, not everyone is going to like the same thing. (I hated the Bianca/Maggie storyline. I hate the Ava character. I hated the Satin Slayer storyline). Not everyone is going to like the same storylines and/or characters. The fact remains that, during the Zoe storyline, AMC's ratings were the highest they had been in over 3 years (including all those times Bianca was with Maggie)!! So obviously SOMEONE was watching the show and they obviously LIKED the Zoe transgender storyline. Had they not, the ratings would not have taken such a big jump up! All in all, that sounds like Zoe was a very very popular character, as was the storyline itself! Also, Zoe is still being mentioned on the show (most recently on Wednesday). I can't say the same for EH. (She hasn't been mentioned at all since she left). And just recently when it was posted on some message boards that EH would be going to Y & R for a new role, most people on those boards were asking "Who is Elizabeth Hendrickson." Obviously, she hasn't made much of an impression if most people don't even know her by name. EH is making a good move by going to Y & R as it is and has been the top-rated soap for quite some time. She will likely do much better there too and will get more exposure. It would be much better for her as I doubt if she really wants to be Bianca's sidekick for the rest of her life either. I'm sure she would like to move on to better things as well. This is a good start for her. |

Quote DanielsMom: Yeh me too I liked Zoe and Bianca they were nice together. Maybe Zoe will blow into town after Broadway to reunite with Bianca. How long do those things play anyway??? |

How long do those things play anyway??? Jeffrey will be on Broadway from March 22 to May 2, which just happens to be my birthday. I'll be 29 for the next 45 years. |

Forget about a BAM reunion? Not necessarily. It sounds like this new role for Liz is recurring. But even if it were or is longer, that does not mean that we won't see her back on this show one day, and perhaps sooner than we all think. I love the Bianca and Maggie romance. They are the first and only lesbian supercouple in daytime as well, and I want them reunited (wouldn't accept a recast of either). |

I'm sure she would like to move on to better things as well. This is a good start for her. I'm with the other poster who said that Zoe was not a popular character. That's not an attack on her. She wasn't. She was hated by several gay and lesbian publications, many fans, and TV Guide called her "romance" with Bianca one of the worst of 2007. The ratings were not higher than they are now because of Zoe. As for the show mentioning Zoe, they had to mention her in Bianca's latest return, which Bianca stated that she is not with Zoe romantically. Also, it made sense for them to mention Zoe when talking about Fusion. A lot of people don't know who Elizabeth Hendrickson is? They sure seemed to know all over the other All My Children boards. Some people know the characters and not the actor or actress' name. If a lot of people don't know who Liz is, the same can be said for Jeffrey Carlson. Liz's impact on the soap opera community cannot be questioned. She made two characters (Frankie and Maggie) widly popular, and became a part of a lesbian supercouple that is accepted and longed for by many fans, publications, and websites. She most definitely made an impact. I stated that when I first came to this board, I found it weird to see all of the Zarf/Zoe love, but I didn't put any of you down for it. I feel that both Liz and Jeffrey are great actors. Zoe wasn't hated by all, as this board is evidence of. Anyway, I wanted to speak my peace on this, because, yes, Maggie is mostly definitely a character that made a significant good impact on this show. She was not simply Bianca's sidekick. A draw because of her romance with Bianca? Sure. But the character was/is her own person. And I believe that she can be liked distinct of Bianca. |

I really liked Maggie but IMO she was never a main character. I don't believe people tuned in to see was Maggie was doing, they tuned in to see what BIANCA and Maggie were doing. Bianca was the lead character in this s/l and she carried the Maggie character with her. I think Maggie lost a lot of her fans when the writers made her a battered woman by Jon. This weak woman was not the Maggie they knew and loved. Again this was not Maggies fault but the writers. Then when Zoe came along it was different she made a name for her self and not just as a love interset of Bianca. This character was welcomed and loved by all I know. Sure a lot of uptight people say they did't like her but I guarantee you they were watching they just would not admit it. once again I love Maggie and would love to have her back but after seeing Bianca with Zoe, any sparks she had with Maggie have burned out in my eyes.JMHO |

Maggie was a sweetheart but I'm afraid if she returned it would not even compare to the other returns in the eyes of the fans. But would love to have her back in some story line anyway. I just never liked her with Bianca, to me if didn't appear real like Zoe did.IMO |
