Good news! Melody Thomas Scott has renewed her contract with the Y&R. There were rumors earlier this month that the actress will be leaving the show for good, after 30 years. Scott refused to take a pay cut and would not take on the status of a "recurring character".
T.V Guide reports that Scott isn't going anywhere! Although she has signed a contract, Nikki will be leaving Genoa city for a while to take care of an ill sister before reappearing.
Well I am glad they came to a settlement because if Scott left the show for good, the Y&R would be losing A LOT of viewers and their ratings would take a huge hit. Characters like Nikki, Victor, Jill, and Katherine are sooo important to the show, and if any of them were replaced by a different actor, it just wouldn't be right. Remember how we all reacted to the new Mac and the new Adam? Well, I bet longtime viewers would be absolutely ENRAGED if we lost any of those four. It just wouldn't be right.
Anyway, YAYYYY for Nikki remaining on the show!
Love Nikki on Y & R. I have been watching the show since I was in school back in the late 80's. I hate the fact that the writers have decided to follow these gay story lines. I guess that is why the first Adam left and had to be replaced. Hated the story line with Cane and Lily, very disappointing to me that the writers think no couple should remain together on the show. They were a perfect couple that I loved to see together. Lets leave Micheal and Lauren alone please. They have great chemistry.
