[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 333794, member: 27"] I can see why the show would not push her back into Ashland's orbit, since it would turn her into a very limited character. Turning her back on the other Newmans would have taken her out of the mix, with most of her screen time being with one other character---a character with no other purpose than to be her love interest once the whole "plot to take over Newman Enterprises" played out. The other characters would likely not want to be around Ashland, feeling he "took Victoria away from them," making it harder for the writers to come up with excuses for her to interact with other, non-Newman characters (such as parties, weddings, etc. where large cast interactions occur). So much of Victoria's identity with the audience comes from being the heiress-apparent to the Newman empire, and without that struggle onscreen people would find Victoria rather boring. [/QUOTE]
