Even though she did have bad blood with William Bell Sr., I wish that Maria would write a role for her on Y&R so that she can reunite with Jeanne Cooper, and perhaps even create a sizzling new rivalry with Jess Walton. I would love to see those two acting alongside each other.

And can you imagine her in scenes with Judith Chapman??? 1980s camp meets 2000s camp??? It would certainly not be boring!!!

Alstonboy, I was just tweeting, that although I HATE when actors play new roles on shows they've played other roles on, that I would forego my dislike to see Brenda as Meggie! LMAO Can you IMAGINE?

Jamey,

That would be epic!! I agree. I wish you had the power to make it happen!!!

Brenda Dickson would be a perfect Meggie!

And I would pay cash money to see her and Judith Chapman attempt to out-camp each other. JuC's Gloria in leopard print and fur trim v/s Brenda Dickson with snakeskin dress with matching snakeskin pumps and bag! LOL!

Lord, Restless Vixen, you just took me back to Brenda and her "Welcome to my home......................." video! LOL!!!!!

Meaning no disrespect to any of you, but HELL NO! To be honest I couldn't take her seriously as Jill because she was so campy. I actually remember yelling out "Thank God" when I heard "The role of Jill Abbott is now being played by Jess Walton" all of those years ago.

Brenda Dickson was PHENOMENAL as Jill Foster Abbott. I STILL miss her soooooo much in her signature role.

However, the perfect role for her today would be Sasha Spectra, Sally Spectra's younger sister on The Bold & the Beautiful who makes her way to LA to stir things up with (and for) the Forresters, Logans and Spencers in honor of her big sister Sally. Plus, it would be great to see her reunited with Don Diamont almost 25 years later.

I wasn't even alive when Brenda Dixon was on the air, but this is my kinda girl! She is a HOT mess. Give me handycam (Ellen Wheeler not included) and send me to Hawaii!

Why is her face wrapped in Celophane?

Brenda as Sally Spectre's sister would be hilarious!

Coffee_Junkie - I think too much Botox creates the super shiny look on her face. If it's not botox, it's another one of those fillers

Ugh, she has had WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much work done. Attention ladies... plastic surgery doesn't make you look beautiful, it makes you look like a freak.

Coffee_Junkie, I was thinking the same thing. I love me some Jess Walton but as someone who was watching Y&R back in the Pre-Victor/Nikki Newman – Brooks sisters days, I thoroughly enjoyed Brenda’s run as Jill but MY GOD. That picture of her gives me the creeps. It’s like the mask from the Phantom of the Opera.

I LOVE Jess Walton as Jill. She's a treasure. I HATED BD and was vastly relieved when she left. She turned Jill into campy trash. Walton has made the character into the complex woman you love one day and hate the next.

Dickson looks like an aging drag queen. Not sure WHERE she'd fit in on television since Nip/Tuck is no longer on the air. Maybe "V".

I wouldn't want to see that horrid face on my TV screen on any show!! I agree she does look like an aging drag queen who uses vegetable oil as a moisturizer. She is just scary looking.

As far as the character of Jill Abbott... Jess Walton rocks that role and I have watched long enough to have seen Brenda Dickson playing the part. Brenda's Jill was trashy and cheap. Jess's Jill finally brought a bit of class to the charcter.

Coffee_Junkie and all, exactly.

There is someone horribly wrong with that face (or hopefully that picture, but not likely) and what's with that hair???.

Jess Walton and Brenda Dickson are both almost exactly the same age (February 1949) so who do you think is a better specimen?
