"Juicy" Suits ATWT Newcomer Julie Pinson

You may best remember her as Port Charles' Eve, or maybe you didn't blink and caught her short turn as Days of our Lives' Billie. (And some of you may think of her as lucky-duck Billy Warlock's bride.) But Julie Pinson now has a truly "Juicy" role to grab onto. The voluptuous beauty is joining As the World Turns in the mystery role of Janet, a woman from Brad's past — and one who in high school boasted the nickname "Juicy." (Akin to how my college sweetheart apparently had been dubbed "PBT" during her own torrid teen years... but I digress.)

Pinson (presumably) puts the squeeze on Katie's romance with Brad starting May 8. — Matt Mitovich

OK, Matt...should I be afraid to ask what "PBT" stands for?

Push button telephone?

Performance based test?

Profit before tax?

I give up.

She's not Billy Warlock's almost bride the two have been married for almost two years.

Soap Incest! Pinson played Austin Peck's (Brad) sister on DAYS, though the two were only on briefly together, but still.

PBT?! You sure you didn't mean PBJ (Peanut Butter Jelly) there Matt?

Oh ya! She's a great actress and will be a hoot in this role. Can't wait.

She should sparkle in the role with good writing. She wasn't given enough to do at Days. As a Days viewer I still miss her.

Sorry, I am still in denial. Fixed.

Nope — PBT. - MWM

She's a great actress and will be great on that show.

(She and Austin Peck were hardly ever on together on Days so I will able to look past the bro/sis thing just fine.)

General Hospital needs to snatch her up. Obviously she would play Eve, but she could be a new character brought on to break up Jax and Carly.

Ooops, I mean to say "Obviously she WOULDN'T play Eve."

"Short turn" on Days? She was on for four years! I know she deserved a meatier role than she got for most of that time, but she was a regular for quite a while.

I am simply estactic that CBS has the smarts to get such a wonderfully talented actress as Julie Pinson. I have been a fan since she first came on the scene in Port Charles. Her versatility from the dramatic to the comedic is always sincere and very entertaining. TPTB at NBC/DOOL are, shall I say--less than intelligent--to allow such a talent not only go to waste then the ultimate decision to let her go entirely. Well, their loss is ATWT's gain. I'll simply have to bone up on this soap to learn all about "Juicy"! Thank you CBS for not allowing a beautiful talent go to waste. :-x

I can hardly wait for Julie to arrive on ATWT. I have just started watching the show in anticipation and so I can get to know a bit about it. I am a die hard Days fan and have been since the show began so many years ago but Julie has captured my heart. Her supposedly daughter just arrived and I can just see her arrival in the near future. I wish Julie all the best and hope her wonderful talent is better used here than it was at Days.
