well I was logged out and hadn't visited the forum in days so yes, my response came days later. 🤣 And I had thought you were trying to reprimand or "scold" me, but I didn't want to read too much into it, but I guess I was right. That's crazy. Btw, I was not trying to do that to you, otoh. I was genuinely replying to your message. Antway, you can go back to minding your business and ignoring my comments. lol

if it's not that serious you should stop there rather than completely misrepresenting my comments and (clearly) having not read the original comment I was replying to in the first place. LOL They said DAYS could have written Chad out, having not watched the show in years. And they prefaced their comment with "no offence" which usually means something offensive is coming. Please, get a grip.

what are you talkin about? I'm not speaking about DAYS current writers or any show's current writers. I'm just making the comparison of blindly judging whether a show's canvas needs a character to a writer joining a show and writing story without knowing what all every character's tea is. It makes no sense.

that wasn't snark. It was a genuine comment. How could you NOT watch something for years and know what state it's in? This is what happens when new writers come on these shows w/o knowing anything about them.

if you haven't watched the show in several years how would you know if Chad is needed or not? lol

imo, he didn't. This was a topic of discussion with me and my sister - it seems like Lucas didn't care about Marco (Adrian Anchondo otoh was REALLY trying his best to sell it, but what can you do when your on-screen partner gives nothing?) so when he died everything felt pretty hollow. The "great love" they were trying to gaslight us into believing they shred was pretty one-sided. lol

tbh, I think giving him a white love interest might actually wake him up...

he's been pretty dead-behind-the-eyes since he came on the show, like Rebecca Herbst when she was with Finn. He needs to WAKE UP or he can go. lol

this is why we can never have anything good. The fans can never see talent/something-someone interesting/fresh and hate everyone that isn't some ancient character with "history" or whatever. lol

like, Jen Lilley is only 41 and LOOKS a lot younger. And Emily O'Brien is only 40. lol

hopefully, he's a love interest for Pascal, and Marc Forget is bumped up to main cast. He has a lot of charisma for a henchman/side character and can act too.

no shade, but what do y'all think she's gonna get on here? lol

maybe, Emily O'Brien won't be playing on and off dual roles anymore, and Sofia Mattsson will be a Theresa Donovan recast? It would be weird tho, when her son would be gone/leaving. lol

they don't care, fam. They went younger for Kristen, younger with EJ, younger Chad (Conner Floyd is 33, lol) and subsequently Billy Flynn is younger than Daniel Goddard. These shows don't care. It's insane. Beyond the Gates CLEARLY has Karla Mosley playing a character that's supposed to be OLDER than 44 based on the casting of her CHILDREN. lol

that's what these soaps are doing. Y&R is riddled with YOUNG recasts. It's insane. The writing is on the wall. lol

he gave Ashley 5 (was it?) split-personalities, had Sharon THINK she murdered someone and cover it up/frame the husband, Nick is addicted to STREET DRUGS, and he had Mariah kidnap a kid. He totally would, lbr. lol

watch Vivica A. Fox turn out to be Drucilla w/ plastic surgery or something dumb like that. lol

Nicole recast? Or Abbey back from the dead for real? Hmm. i wonder what the reason is? Didn't she leave GH by choice? lol

i figured he was gonna come back when Jonathan Jackson flopped. lol I wonder if he's gonna be for Britt? Or Joss? Hmm.

i'm guessing Jordan is gonna be the one to steal Portia's baby?, to keep Curtis. Narratively, it makes no sense for Portia to do it. Also, her pregnancy was apparently risky, so there's no punch if she loses her baby. I wonder if Trina's gonna switch the babies? Hmm.

returning to be killed off, probably. Never trust Josh Griffith.

oh, is that big, bad WSB head guy gonna "kill" him? The have been dropping lots of hints. And Carly will spiral, and sleep with Valentine, etc. No one will be there to keep Danny on the "straight and narrow" and Charlotte will fully sink her talons into him (unless Sam comes back from the dead, as has been rumoured)

if you don't think Jordi Vilasuso can act, then I don't know how you are getting through watching soaps in general, let alone Beyond the Gates regularly. I know y'all have your grudges against him, but the dude can act. Now, do I like him? Ehhh. And is the material he has to work with any good? I think that's the issue we have with BTG on the whole... 😩 lol

it could be cute. Y'all hate everything. lol Now, the problematic, literal white washing and retread of the Luna story w/ the art teacher girlie... hopefully they drop THAT one. 😬 lol

i hope so. She deserves far more than Will's plank-like acting. I know y'all hate her, but I think she's one of the best younger actresses on soaps, right now. She's doing amazing with the garbo material she has to work with.
