NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

Hmmmmm...

 

Awww... ...then again, from how things look, there's still the chance they'll go the whole "coma" route... maybe.

 

Sorry guys, I think this might be all my fault.

It was just a joke. Obviously the writers who read this forum have no sense of humour. On the plus side is seems that @Alexis is not the only one around here with some influence at the CW.

 

I mean... It just doesn't make sense without Cristal. I had sort of grown to like her too. Maybe that was just misdirection on the actress' part. Hopefully it was. I wouldn't mind her in a coma for part of the season. Then we could have Alexis get up to all kinds of nastiness while beauty lies sleeping. But she's got to come back I mean it's only season 2.

 

If Cristal is indeed comatose, then that could very well be a reference to Krystle's own coma as well! ^^

 

As a side note does anyone know if any casting calls have went out for season 2 yet? If they go back to film in July they must be casting a few roles soon?

 

Yes, you're right. Cristal knows too much that could send Alexis packing to the next country (faking Adam's return, which would earn her the wrath of Blake, Fallon and even Steven - no pun intended on the "even Steven" part, btw). It makes sense for her to be out for a while for Alexis to cover her tracks properly.

And not only that, but Cristal being out of the way makes room for Kirby to come in and establish herself.

 

Cristal being gone for season 2 (at least the first few episodes) does not mean she won't be back in season 3, or even later in season 2. In fact, imagine her opening her eyes just as Alexis is rehearsing her gown for wedding #2 with Blake. I mean, I actually like the gimmick, but after the Jon Snow debacle I don't give much credence to actor statements.

 

"You know nothing, Jon Snow."

 

If NuDynasty wanted to go that way with having some of the actors not appear in certain episodes, they could justify it with having their characters jetting off somewhere or going on business trips. I'm still wondering if they'll have Blake go on that tour of 3rd-world countries, that would justify having Grant Show not appear for a couple episodes, if they're looking to save a few dollars. And having Alexis not appear for a couple episodes as well could have the same affect as it did as the original Season 9 did: make Alexis scarier in that you don't know what all she's up to... thus she can reappear with a grand reveal of her next scheme.

 

I'm thinking the same from the moment I watched the E! Interview: Jon Snow's death that summer... Kit Harrington swearing he was DEAD and will not return for filming! And then two episodes of the new season and... OH! He was alive!!! If you hear closely Nathalie's words she only says he won't be filming in Atlanta in July and she has no part to read. If we go to the comatose Cristal recovering the burning/shot wounds in a hospital, she doesn't need to go on location to Atlanta (just a hospital room set) or a text to read. This interview is not fake news but probably half-truth news! Hype, hype hype, they need fans talking about it!

 

Coma is better than death but I still think it's a very bad decision...

 

NuDYNASTY isn't likely to run long, obviously. So speeding up Cristol's coma almost makes some sense. I wonder if we can combine it with Roseanne Conner's absence...

But Cristol's already been shot. She can't go to Bora Bora for business if she's been shot!

 

This is confirmation of nothing. In fact, if anything, this screams Kimberly Shaw.
