Plus, maybe they get a tax credit of their regular actors are residing in Atlanta? That may also play a part. Project Casting revealed in April 2024 Susan Dansby's involvement, while also naming her as co-executive producer and head writer. @Errol can you confirm any of this, per chance?

They are definitely dressing Rebecca Budig's Taylor in more neutral, natural tones than in comparison to Krista Allen.

My guess is budget and time, etc. It reminds me of Dynasty and how the cast lived in Atlanta for filming. I would assume, despite being daytime, it is the same thing, especially for a new production.

It seems like series regulars were mandated for the Atlanta residence, which begs the question: is Tunie a regular or a recurring player (for now)?

Oh, I fully respect it... but it's clear their financial efforts are not going to work, and it'd be best to save their pennies at this point.

And it's a shame, because they were not always that way.

Fans should be saving their money at this point; it's wasted.

Likely do. Some are hits and some are misses.

This only. Knight should be OUT permanently.

No, you're not.

I am back into the Emmerdale world over Neighbours, and I've picked up in the beginning of August 2024. whew. Loving it all over again.

You did amazing @Maxim

Time will tell, won't it?

I am indifferent to Karla Mosley. Disliked her on Bold, but she did fine with pinch-hitting on Restless. So this should be good for her. Unfamiliar with Daphnee Duplaix; I vaguely remember her during my two-minute watching of One Life. But happy for them both.

I give a single snap for at least bringing back a [former] character, and not just creating a new one for the Hell of it. But it's clearly a reach for try and compete with Beyond the Gates. And yet, Brytni Sarpy was still wasted.

That's the problem: the casting called for actors to be based in Atlanta, meaning, they don't want actors having the commute to work. They want them IN Atlanta for shooting purposes (per TV Insider: "All roles are contract players and must be Atlanta residents. The show is set to commence taping in November.") So, if she did take a role and did not relocate, it may be a guest/recurring one. None of the Steve Burton treatment (The Young and the Restless). They want their actors local for access purposes. And per her own admission, Morgan wanted to spend more time with her family following tragedies and COVID. Could her mind have changed? Possibly, but is also could not have.

And you're full of so much the toilet is friggin' jealous. Thought I was blocked... guess not. You're the biggest hypocrite to exist on this board (among other things). Do I feel disgusted by how Ryan Murphy has presented the series? Yes. Does this mean I can't watch it out of support for Nicholas Alexander Chavez? No, it does not. So sit back down where you belong.

Considering her [young] family is firmly planted in Toronto, Canada, I don't see her leaving them especially since she left a regular status at The Young and the Restless to do just that: spend time with her family in Toronto.

They're likely referring to the hiring of Sawandi Wilson as Isaiah Gannon.

OMG NO!

She's not based out of Atlanta, so I doubt she'd be considered. Unless she's willing to relocate to Atlanta, which I don't see happening.
