I liked Eriq LaSalle on ER, but I can't see him on a show like Grey's. Plus, I too think he's too old. My vote is mos definitely for Boris (YUM-O!). He could be the new McStud. Or McBabe. Or McDelish. :lol:

Hell no to Bill Bellamy!!

Did IW really drop the F-bomb on TRk, or is this a rumor generated by the Nat'l Enquirer? I like Burke, and never had a problem with IW. But if he really said that, man, I don't know . . . :unsure: I just hope Shonda does what's best for the show.

I vote no to the recast. Get rid of Isaiah Washington by all means but reveal that "Burke" was on the downlow. That'll teach him. Boris as a replacement? Absolutely, but be honest about it and make the new character's story about the hospital staff's same racial quotas as the show's.

.. And Shonda will do well by the show if she's allowed to. I have full confidence in her.... maybe not the network.

And here I was typing the dynamic between the cast was so great. This BLOWS. If Eric Braeden and Peter Bergman could get into a fist fight, apologize for it nationally, and then continue to work together for all these years. Then surely these two men can get over it. But I guess this is a bit different. People need to grow the fu*k up. IW has a job that so many inspiring actors will probably dream for (being part of the # 1 rated show), and he does something so juvenile.

It must be more than just this incident if they are considering a recast. He must be a terror on the set, as we see so often behind the scenes. Wasn't the Bo recast on DAYS offensive to the women on the show? I seem to remember hearing that, but not sure, could be mixed up.

Personally, I'd pick Boris Kodjoe because he's a sexy sexy sex god and can act.

You talking about Robert Kelker-Kelley?

oh hell this is getting out of hand. I really don't want to see any cast changes. Be it a recast or a firing. Shows have kept unpopular backstage actors all the time, for the good of the show I'd like them to just keep him. But, if he's going, then write out Burke. You do not recast someone 3 seasons into a primetime show anymore!

Castmembers hate each other on a lot of hit shows. Look at Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall on Sex in the City. They truly loathed each other but you would have never seen it onscreen because they were professional and knew the job had to be done.

KBT: not to me it wasn't! All I knew about KC was that she, for whatever reason, wouldn't work on the proposed 'Sex' movie. Also, that she's way too public about her sex life. Oh, and the fact that I pity her for caring about little else but sex. That's all I knew about her. But that she and SJP had this famous feud? Nope. Sorry. Didn't see that. And I guess I should say, why should I? What would they feud about? Both are liberal so it's not politics.

    • Yes, they did.  I still have them.  I think there were three.  AMC and GH as well.
    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.
