Members PhoenixRising05 Posted November 21, 2006 Members Share Posted November 21, 2006 I agree this is very weird. What were they afraid to lose them to another show? They are on quite a bit but still I don't recall something like this happening before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members King Posted November 21, 2006 Members Share Posted November 21, 2006 Maybe putting them on contract is cheaper than using them as recurring. I am sure they'll be off contract soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pest Spray Posted November 21, 2006 Members Share Posted November 21, 2006 Considering how much they're on, maybe it's about money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaysFanJean Posted November 22, 2006 Members Share Posted November 22, 2006 At least we know that Claire isn't going to be SORAS'd very soon. I'm really enjoying her being shown so much in the story lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Greg Posted November 22, 2006 Members Share Posted November 22, 2006 This is how NBC handles a budget cut...hire two babies full time? Please. Those babies aren't even that great of actresses If any baby should be getting a contract it should be GH's Lila Rae. Now that's a star in the making. I only give it a few years before Claire is breaking curfew and out boozing around anyway... Oh, is Benji not a contract role? Or was he just a thought in Steve's head? Was he really at the hospital that one day? I'm confused about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
