Lori Loughlin has signed on as "Celia Mills," the new show's version of Cindy Walsh, according to this report. I don't know how I feel about this -- I sort of loved Lori Loughlin, circa Edge of Night, but her performance on Summerland freaked me out.
Meanwhile, according to TV Guide, Lizzie Maguire has turned down the role of "Annie," Lori's on-screen daughter, and the role has gone to Shenae Grimes of . . . wait for it . . . Degrassi: The Next Generation. Yay? I don't feel strongly one way or another about Grimes, who played Christian-ish cheerleader Darcy on DNG, but there's a certain weird, Canadian logic to the casting, isn't there?
