SOAP OPERA WEEKLY
GL kicks off the year with one of the show's most anticipated returns when Grant Aleksander rejoins the cast as Phillip. But that's not all that's cooking in Springfield. Head Writer, Jill Lorie Hurst confirms that there will be new marriage proposals and pregnancies on the way and gives the scoop on the show's new year of "hope, romance and reunions".
The returns of Phillip & Edmund will have a huge impact on everyone in town. Both arrive with similar agendas but their paths will be very different. Edmund will weave into the lives of Reva, Josh, Jeffrey, Shayne and Dinah, while Phillip will impact Lizzie, Alan, Beth, the Coopers, Olivia and his good pal, Rick. Eventually their stories will spill into each other. We'll see Beth reconnect with Edmund and Phillip will check in with his friend, Reva, now that they share a grandchild. (Sarah) Both men will keep their plans very close to the vest when they arrive, but the earth will tremble a bit as they cross into Springfield.
Reva is hell-bent on birthing a healthy baby, no matter what. She and Jeffrey don't always agree but he does his best to protect Reva every step of the way. We get to play some of the fun, normal baby stuff, too. There's child-birthing classes and a big baby shower.
There will be big drama when the truth comes out about Beth & Coop. Huge choices are made and lives are changed. Alan starts the ball rolling.
Remy & Christina will continue to grow closer as her tries to help her achieve her dream of becoming a doctor. Remy will see Christina head down a tempting but dangerous road in the near future. He will pull out all the stops to get her back on the right path, but it won't be easy.
Rick will have his hands full when Phillip returns, and he and Olivia will stay friends. Natalia and Frank grow closer. He always comes through for her and she has a chance to return the favour. There are some surprises ahead for everyone in this group.
Bill & Lizzie take turns fighting the great love they feel for each other. They have some struggles ahead, but there is happiness and romance in this couple's future.
Billy & Vanessa will deal with Bil & Dinah's dramas. Of course, Billy hasn't given up on the idea that he might get his gal, Vanessa, back one of these days.
Alex will be very important to Phillip when he returns, and we will see the toll that all the family pressure has taken on her over the years. I'd like to re-visit the quirky Dinah-Alex friendship in the future. We'll see!

CBS SOAPS IN DEPTH
Springfield residents experienced their fair share of tragedy and triumph in 2008, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. GL co-headwriter, Jill Lorie Hurst, defines 2009 as a year of "romance, reunions and redemption" that will surely add fuel to several burning fires. Here's your sneak peek at what you can anticipate in the new year.
Reva's Family Drama
Although they're absolutely overjoyed to have war-torn son Shayne back home, Josh & Reva struggle to make headway with the discontented vet and help him get his life back on track. In fact, Hurts explains, "They will kick into parental overdrive as they try to fix their damaged son, who comes home with a lot of baggage." Unfortunately, Shayne wants nothing to do with his family, and his parents will have to pull out all the stops to earn his trust -- and keep him out of touble. "He loves them, but they're trying too hard. He will connect to a couple of people who make his parents worry about him even more." In addition, Reva will have to balance reachng out to Shayne with continuously monitoring her health and that of her unborn baby. However, Hurst previews that the mother-to-be and her husband, Jeffrey, will welcome a bundle of joy. "While there will be some close calls and tense moments leading up to the birth, Jeffrey & Reva will absolutely find themselves the parents of a beautiful, healthy boy.
Phillip Resurfaces!
The Spaulding family will be in for the shock of their lives when missing-in-action Phillip returns to the canvas in the new year. (February 6) And while Hurst is hush-hush about the circumstances (he arrives during a wedding), the scribe says that Phillip's surprising return will felt throughout Springfield. "We have lots of plans for him and everyone he's connected to," Hurst promises. "His return will have a major impact on Lizzie, Alan, Beth, Rick, Olivia -- all of Springfield," she teases. "The way Springfield has changed -- and the way it's stayed the same -- will impact on the way he is today.|
Secrets Explode!
Look for at least one scheme-team to face the music where their dirty deeds are concerned. "Dinah & Grady's partnership is over, but their shared secret keeps them connected. They both pay for Lizzie's kidnapping -- in very different ways." Meanwhile, Bill & Lizzie will encounter relationship snags that could change them both forever. "Lizzie has decided that love is highly overrated," says Hurst, adding, "she cuts herself off from everyone she cares about, and it will take some work on Bill's part to get her back." So is this the end for the supercouple-in-the-making? Well, not exactly. Hurst hints that they will find their way back to one another and enjoy their renewed romance -- for a while. "The good news is they have happy times ahead... before the next battles begin."
