Agreed. Heather Tom is Victoria Newman. Amelia Heinle is serviceable but she is just not Victoria. All the scenes she has with Brad, most of them, have had Brad the fraud coming out on top despite all the lies Brad has told her. A Heather Tom Victoria would not put up with this. She would bring Victoria Newman back to Genoa City.

And if he could make it, David Tom would bring back Billy Abbott too. No offense to Scott Seymour. I wish him the best. But his hiring was a big mistake. He has gotten a little better over the past few weeks. But he still isn't cutting it as Billy. Sending him off was a good move on the part of TPTB.

One thinks that the firings and rehirings at Y&R aren't quite over with yet.

I personally love Amelia as Victoria. Not only is she probably the most beautiful woman on daytime she's a great actress. She just doesn't have chemistry with Don Diamond. The writers need to toughen Vicky back up and I'd like to see her paired with Neil again or even better, Devon!

As for David Tom... i don't care who they recast as long as they get rid of the WORST actor currently on soaps.. the currently dud that plays Billy.

Me neither but that was also due to the wiritng of the character.

The current Billy is a develish charmer, a younger version of Aunt Jackie, so maybe David Tom could play that better? But I still like Scott Seymour and am upset he was let go anyway. The recent casting decision don't please me at all...

I'm surprised people like nuBilly, I thought I was the only one. I can understand why they'd get rid of him though, he is hugely unpopular on all the boards I've visited. I think he's cute and charming and I love his scenes with Auntie Jack.

David Tom was good, but he's not cute to me. I'd accept him back though, he can act, but I will still miss the pretty. With him back they definitely need to bring back the original Mac. I know it's not going to happen, but I still will keep my fingers crossed.

    • I have to check out his Bela Garody on Search for tomorrow. He was one of the main reasons EON worked for me when I was watching. Truly unforgettable presence. Handsome in the most perverse and sinister way. They don't make faces like that anymore. 
    • My favorite moment in SOAPDISH is the HW taking the star to the mall in NJ to improve "morale"!! 
    • Oh no! The shoulder pads! I will mourn them when they're gone. Please tell me the head pieces and hats remained!?
    • Shout! TV has now added season 26. Not sure what the reasoning for that was, but maybe it was the one that was ready to go... 
    • It's AWFULLY hard to tell.  But out of the (approximately) 16 weeks so far in 2025, Bryton has only had about 12 episodes.  That's significantly less than 1 per week.  Once the actor drops down to less than 1 per week for an extended period of time (such as a 39-week cycle), I start thinking there's no contract in place for him or her.  Surely these folks aren't tying themselves down to a show for a guarantee of 1 or 2 episodes a month.   If I counted right, Bryton has had 21 episodes in the past 24 weeks.  They're either (a) about to kick into high-gear & work his ass off to meet his minimum guaranteed appearances, or else (b) he ain't got a contract that guarantees him squat.  
    • These contract guarantees of 1 ep per month are ridiculous. How can you even have a story if your character apprars 4-5 times in a month? It's sad.
    • It's hard to tell with some actors appearing on average 4 times in a month whether they're recurring or just on a low guarantee contract. Someone recurring  like Beth Maitland can be used a lot for several months then disappear. So the monthly tallies aren't enough to go by.
    • Of the so-called "contract" cast members, I'd venture to say these are recurring: Bryton James, Camryn Grimes, and (possibly) Michael Graziadei.  I've suspected since 2018 that Kate Linder and Christian LeBlanc are recurring.  And I believe we all know Miss Ordway is, because she said so. lol.  
    • Dante blaming Gio instead of his dweeb son and the other dweeb was just ridiculous. Gio's paternity story is going in circles with no reveal. I've already started fast forwarding Drew and his stupid ho Willow's story. Kristina's story is beyond dumb with no great payoff.
    • Sarah (with the English accent) isn't just some random character.  Sarah was once the housekeeper for Eliot Dorn and Margo Huntington.  One of the following 2 scenarios happened a few months ago: (1):  One night, while Margo wasn't at home, and while Oscar the Doorman wasn't at his post, a burglar sneaked into the private elevator, rode up to the penthouse, stole several thousand dollars worth of Margo's valuable diamonds and pearls, and tied-up Eliot Dorn and Sarah the Housekeeper, ensuring that Eliot and Sarah couldn't pursue the burglar back down to the lobby or phone the police to apprehend the burglar. OR --  (2): Eliot Dorn was SLEEPING with Sarah the Housekeeper, and the two of them conspired to steal Margo's jewelry and went on a lavish spending spree and then tied THEMSELVES up to make it look as though a burglary had occurred in the penthouse. Margo Dorn currently believes Scenario #1 occurred, and she's rather annoyed that the "incompetent police" haven't located her stolen jewels yet.  Eliot and Sarah know that Scenario #2 actually occurred.  When Sarah stopped by the Unicorn and saw Eliot kissing Raven Swift, Sarah snidely said, "Oh! This must be Mrs. Dorn!  Nice to meet you, Mrs. Dorn!" Sarah knew good & damn well Raven isn't "Mrs. Dorn" because Sarah worked for Margo Dorn on a daily basis for many months.  That was Sarah's not-so-subtle way of announcing, "I'll be paying a visit to District Attorney Logan Swift and letting him know that his wife is sleeping with you, and I'll be paying a visit to WMON to let Margo Huntington know that you're sleeping with Mrs. Swift!"  lol.
