Members NothinButAttitude Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 Well Keegan must get all his looks from the father. I don't think the eldest Taylor boy is ugly either. He's handsome. But the rest of them... Please register in order to view this content Again, I just couldn't get behind Michelle acting like Mary Kay Letourneau Jr. It is out of character for her b/c Michelle was always the logical one. Pauline and Arthur must be rolling in their graves over how she's panned out. We know that Ian is going nowhere as Adam Woodyatt will be there till he chooses to leave; however, Jane can go. She is not needed. I enjoyed Ian immensely when he was paired with Denise, who I wanted to emerge as the new Beale matriarch. That all got nuked to hell once Jane returned. I might be able to get over Ian for his actions (even though I need a recast Peter to return to stay giving him grief over it), but Jane has to go. I've never liked her. I never will. Chelsea doesn't need to be recast. They just need to bring Tiana Benjamin back, who I'm sure would return. They just need to bring all of Denise's kids back. Jordan, Libby, and Chelsea. Crazy I am saying this b/c I used to loathe Libby at times. But she was been wonderful these past few visits she's made over the past 2 years. Lauren is another character I just don't care for. I don't. Lauren screwing around on someone and not committing to a relationship is nothing new for me. I wish she and Abi would leave and go live with Tanya offscreen TBH. And Steven should've been left gay (as I've said before), and he should be competing with Ben over men. And I am with @TimWil where Keegan is beyond repair. SOC should've stopped while he was ahead with the character, but he kept making him heinous, and NOW he wants us to pity him. It's too late! After he faked the porn video with Bex, that's when he should've went legit. Now that he's declaring he slept with Louise, which is sexual assault, whether true or not, it is too far. He's too much of a sexual deviant at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) I like Lauren's friendship with Whitney (if they insist on keeping the characters) plus I kind of like the sibling relationship between Lauren and Abi. I do get bored of them at times though. My fear is that getting rid of existing characters will just lead to them being replaced by other morally ambiguous characters who we're told to root for. EE does have a weird moral compass. I'm now wondering what their plan is for Mads and Alex. My fear is they'll be added to the canvas more permanently down the line. Unlike Keegan who is played by a decent actor with some poor characterization, those 2 I don't think could work long term. I'd be happy with Tiana returning as Chelsea but I'd be happy for them to re-cast if the actress doesn't want to come back. I can't stand Libby so I never want to see her again.

Members TimWil Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) I thought Tiana Benjamin was a stunningly beautiful young woman but an absolutely awful actress. It would probably not rub too many the wrong way if the role was recast. I think enough time has passed.

Members NothinButAttitude Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 I'd take Libby over 90% of the current cast. One thing I did admire about Libby that most of the canvas lacks is ambition. The only thing I'd want (if she were to return) is that she comes on as a professional woman who just happens to live on the Square. Mads and Alex need to be hauled off too with Keegan. They are just too heinous to fix at this point. They can return some time down the road a remorseful adults. But staying on the show now? Nope. They gotta go. I like the actor that plays Keegan too, but as aforementioned, SOC ruined his own creation before he allowed him to find footing. He's just too nasty. You brought up Whitney and she too is a character that is deadweight. She should've left YEARS ago with either the Moon brothers or Bianca and her clan. All of Whitney's stories consist of the same thing--her screwing somebody's man. She reminds me of Roxy where her stories are circular and you never see growth. Maybe she should've joined the Mitchell sisters in that pool that night... Please register in order to view this content Well EE has some other dreadful actors currently, so she wouldn't be able. But she might've improved by now, so we never know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 Do you think they will though? Agreed about Whitney. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 I assume they will seeing as their families haven't been cast yet. If we hear casting calls for their families then that's a indicator he might wanna keep 'em. Teen typically don't stay on this show unless their families are on the Square driving stories too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cassadine1991 Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 Not by blood but in all intent and purposes Ben's basically Steven's uncle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) I think the fact they're related (though not by blood) is more interesting. they'd make a hot couple, and I'd love them to have a fiery, dysfunctional relationship but to stay together. ETA Maybe they can make Keegan bisexual and have a 3 way relationship Please register in order to view this content Edited June 18, 2017 by Edward Skylover 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Skylover Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) I feel like they're being cautious about it because it would be 'gay incest', or at least that's what people would call it even though they're not blood-related and the show has done blood relations anyway with Lauren and Joey. Or is it because they're ignoring Steven's history? Does SOC even know Steven used to be gay? The whole thing is bizarre.

Members hsfolk Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 i think we're just supposed to ignore the whole Steven gay phase 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skylover Posted June 18, 2017 Members Share Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) I understand if they don't want him to be full-on gay as it hampers storyline opportunities plus they've gone so far with this Lauren relationship now but I wish they'd acknowledge him as at least bisexual. Perhaps we should write to SOC Please register in order to view this content It would be good if maybe an ex-boyfriend of his from New Zealand turned up. Then Stacey could be all like 'oh yeah I forgot that Steven was gay/bi' Edited June 18, 2017 by Edward Skylover 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
