Nothing against Sydney Penny, but I never did see a good reason to bring her back. She replaced a sister that they didn't know what to do with and the rest of the Santos family was long gone. It was just a way to drag out the storyline about Tad and Dixie's lost child, when fans would have liked to see it resolved.

RB has been saying for months that SP would be let go.  It had to be delayed since SP only recently returned from maternity leave.  If it appears you fire some one because they were out on maternity leave or for being pregnant you can be sued.  So TPTB waited until it was legally save to let her go.

  • Sydney Penney's child is almost one year old and she returned from maternity leave over EIGHT MONTHS AGO. RB is full of it as usual.
  • The point is, regardless of when she returned, they honored most if not all of her remaining contract with no renewal.

    WHAT!!!!!!   That is soooooo  dufus and fear Julia's exit will cause more pain for Kathy.  Also, I have always liked Julia, since she stopped decking every guy in PV and broke away from Jamie.   I will miss her.  :(

    Well, I’d like to know why they do this all the time.  They bring back characters who were popular before, and don’t give them meaningful storylines and then they let them go.  She’s been on the backburner ever since she came back.  Why bring them back in the first place?

  • ...AND if they don't kill her off that means she'll just leave in pain over losing the child. PLUS Kathy will now have to grieve yet another gone relationship. Sure she'll love Tad but she lost the only parents she ever knew and came to love Julia as a mommy. Now she gets her real daddy and loses another mom. Absurd. Hope they don't kill her so she can at least promise to stay in the child's life even though we know that's bunk, too.eom/WE
  • I hadn’t even thought of that but maybe they are going to kill her off. Either that or it will really be painful for her and Kathy. I don’t know why they even gave Kathy to her in the first place. I guess the actress had to wonder what her fate would be, once the truth comes out. / Vivian
  • Add to that the mother she's already lost and never will get to meet (Dixie) ... sheesh, poor kid! - - acidbrat
