411 on Soaps

TV Guide Magazine is reporting that Brett Claywell and Scott Evans have been fired from OLTL and will be gone by April.
According to the mag:

Spoiler Alert! On the March 29 episode, Fish will learn for certain what viewers have known for quite a while—he’s the biological father of baby Sierra Rose, via his drunken one-nighter with psychotic stripper Stacy Morasco (Crystal Hunt). With Stacy now dead, there are rumblings of a custody battle with Stacy’s sister Gigi (Farah Fath) but, ultimately, the law is on Fish’s side and the two dads will blissfully start a new life with the baby.

A show rep says the characters will not actually leave Llanview and, because Fish is a cop, he may pop up in a crime-related capacity down the line—but no promises are being made.

Daytime Confidential is reporting that Scott Clifton (Schuyler Joplin, OLTL) has taped his last scenes and has been let go. This is not surprising considering the Morasco Fiasco has finally hit its climax.

This week on OLTL, Gigi and Schuyler wage war against one another for custody of Sierra Rose. Clint and Kim are going to join in the battle after they tie the knot, if Kim will sign the prenup. All the while, the other baby daddy, Fish, is keeping mum about his potential role as sperm donor. Kyle isn’t happy with the way Fish is handling this situation and told him so on today’s episode. OLTL fans are crucifying Schuyler for not stepping up for the baby, but I hear very little bitching about Fish. Fish is a good guy, and the guilt is obviously eating away at him. Fish needs to man up and at least get a paternity test to see if he is the father. We know Gigi and Rex would take good care of Sierra Rose, but I think we all want to see Kyle and Fish take the journey as parents together. It would make for a great story! Who do you think should end up with custody of Sierra Rose? Please leave your comments below!

News broke today that Eden Riegel is replacing Vail Bloom on Y&R. Amanda Setton stopped taping scenes as OLTL’s Kim on February 19. No one wants to see Kim go, but how about in the form of Vail? Would you be town for a Kim re-cast? Leave your comments below. Thanks!

Here at the 411, we have no problems labeling our Skank of the Month. It has recently been brought to our attention that we should feature a skanky man once a month as well. So we introduce to you: The Jackass of the Month! This month, our jackass is Robert Ford, AKA Ford from OLTL. He came to Llanview with one thing on his mind: SEX! Ford managed to get Langston to sleep with him, only to turn around and brag that he had finally gotten a piece of ass. Ford is pretty to look at, but when he opens his mouth, all I hear is: “I am a jackass!” Hee Haw Hee Haw!
