Members crc Posted December 5, 2006 Members Share Posted December 5, 2006 From CBS.com... My guess is that this is going to turn out to be Nick's real daddy. Then, down the road, they'll have Ben Hogestyn return as Harry, who will turn out to be Nick's son, allowing Harry and Phoebe to hook up without being cousins. I'm surprised that this is just coming out since he begins airing in a couple of weeks, unless I've overlooked this being posted somewhere.

Members DruRocks Posted December 5, 2006 Members Share Posted December 5, 2006 I hate Nick, so I don't look forward to this. Brad shouldn't splurge B&B's budget so much though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted December 5, 2006 Members Share Posted December 5, 2006 I know I'm the only one who thinks this, but these stunt castings are stunt and annoying. I love Linda Gray and Bette White, but imagine how much good their characters would've done with a reputable soap vet willing to stay long term? Brad Bell's best ideas are wasted on these stunts, then we get the Nick/Bridget/Ridge/Brooke drama for the entire year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bandbfan Posted December 5, 2006 Members Share Posted December 5, 2006 Seems like B&B is really upping the amount of older characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted December 5, 2006 Members Share Posted December 5, 2006 The second I read this, the beginning of the "Barney Miller" theme song entered my mind and now it won't leave! I love Hal Linden, but yes, the stunt casting is getting annoying. I love all of the people they're hiring (even the people who weren't stunt casted like Ben H. and Dax G.) but it annoys me because they can do so much more with who they already have...

Members sheilaforever Posted December 6, 2006 Members Share Posted December 6, 2006 B&B seems extremely tight-lipped for quite some time. Even the so-called previews in the mags are very vague or say little at most... Considering that B&B tapes 5 or 6 weeks in advance it is quite an achievement to keep secrets secrets - remember: we knew that Kristen would return to LA but never learned why until the very last moment. I like it that way. As for the latest casting coup: Whatever. Nick has been runied for me quite a bit this year. The story might get good but I'm very indifferent about it just now. What I find interesting taht B&B is suddenly on "explore the past"-bandwaggon. First Stephanie, now Jackie - wonder if Bradley Bell was influenced by Y&R or whether it was actually Brad Bell who suggested to Y&R to explore Brad Carlton's past??? This story also started off great - just the fallout was BAD, B&B usually does pay-off like no other soap so I'm looking foward to any of these kind of storylines.

Members crc Posted December 6, 2006 Author Members Share Posted December 6, 2006 Here's a little more scoop from TV Guide. Hal Linden's character on B&B will be a former pimp. Hmmm... Could Jackie... No!?! LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted December 6, 2006 Members Share Posted December 6, 2006 She's British, so who knows... BTW: I totally buy this guy as a pimp. I've never seen him before (not taht I could remember at least) but he comes off extremely shady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
