    Wow, from one show to another awfully quick, if she does decide to go through with doing this new show. I'm really curious as to what made her decide to leave Miami, but I will give her props for finding work this quick.

    It would be nice to see her return to Miami for a guest spot--just not as a ghost. :lol:

    ETA: Btw, no typos Fay. :p
