Members KLN Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 HELL NO! No, no, no, no, no, no, no. NO. I'm not even sure why I think she would be so HORRIBLE in the role, because she's not too old for Abe... but she just seems so old compared to Renee Jones. NO. Oh God, I would just die. I don't like her at all. And as Celeste's daughter? Oh my God, it would just never, ever, ever work. Maybe Tonya Lee Williams? Renee Jones could play Olivia on Y&R and TLW could play Lexie on Days, LoL. A little switcheroo! What is it with black women in daytime only being doctors, anyway? Olivia's a doctor on Y&R, Lexie's a doctor on Days, Eve's a doctor on Y&R. Who else? Anybody? In my mind, though, there's only one Alexandra DiMera Carver...

Members jcar03 Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 JER is no longer a consultant on DAYS that was merely a contract issue I believe over the summer where he had to remain in the credits until the end or something stupid like that. His name hasn't been in the credits since at least October when Sheffer's stuff started airing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jcar03 Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 I actually read Jones exit interview with SOD and they asked if she would be interested in doing another soap and she very strongly said that there is no way she would do any other soap.

Members px780 Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 Hey now. I've crafted my own little reality, with respect to Passions, and in that reality McCarty is still there. And in my reality she's coveted on any show in need of a crazy [!@#$%^&*], because she's awesome as that type of character. I've seen her other...we'll call it "work," and she's not nearly as entertaining. I kind of agree with you on the look. Days actors, in recent years (though not so much lately) have a bit more...it's more superficial beauty, imho. And she's beautiful, but in a more model-y something's wrong kind of way. Truthfully? Word. Word! I'm going to miss Renee Jones like crazy. I would hate Ross on Days as Lexie. I love her as Eve. But Eve doesn't require the kind of softness and vulnerability and decent hair that Lexie has-- and that Jones provides. And clearly black women in daytime need to be doctors because TPTB are using them to make some kind of statement, showing that they'll hire a non-blonde and that they'll give them a substantial, non-villainess (and therefore stereotypical by showing black characters as evil) role. Speakind of...I miss Dominique Jennings, Virignia the turkey baster lady from SuBe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 First off, ROFL @ decent hair! And Dominique Jennings was amazing. Oh my God, truly daytime's most (first?) amazing black B!TCH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 Renee Jones IS Lexie to me. Ross would not be a good Lexie. She is an ok actress but not good enough for Lexie IMO. Tonya Lee Williams would be ok but still...Renee for me. It would be so hard to imagine or see anyone else in that role. That would be wrong if Corday did recast her in my mind because she is one actress who would return for less money. She made it clear she didn't want to do another soap and that Days was the one for her so I think she would return if called on. Dominique Jennings should be picked up. She rocked. Why she isn't on another soap is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DruRocks Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 Tonya Lee Williams would kick ass as Lexie Dimera. However, her home is in Genoa City, and I miss my Liv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 why do people always say that Dominique was daytime's first black b-tch and/or villianess? That honor belongs to Taylor Canon from AMC Aas far as roles Id like to see the cast in.... Heidi Mueller would make a good recast to Natalia Livingston's Emily on GH Emily Harper as OLTL's Sarah Roberts or AMC as a Greenlee's cousin, a new character or B&B's Bridget Forrester Brook Kerr as AMC's Taylor Canon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dawn9476 Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 Andrea Evans ain't going back to OLTL. First of all, she has stated the chance of her moving back to NYC is slim to none because of the whole stalker thing she went through. Andrea also stayed with Passions for so long because they were ok with her not having a contract so she could do her speaking engagements about Breast Cancer. I don't see Frons being as accommodating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DruRocks Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 ^True. But I just wish one day she'll return home back to Llanview. Heidi Mueller on GH? Please no. I can't stand Natalie, but Mueller ain't any better. What's so good about her "acting"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nassaunew Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 ^Heidi is a decent actress. I think her acting lately has become worse, but her acting during 2005 was pretty good. Acting opposite Adrian and Mark is not good for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R!ck Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 I can see Lindsay Hartley leaving daytime all together and ending up on a new FOX or CW show this coming season. Emily Harper & Heidi Mueller will get snatched up by another soap. Kim Johnston Ulrich will go back to primetime guest roles. Juliet Mills will go back to theater and film. Ben Masters will go back to primetime guest roles and theater. As for the rest, No clue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 IF, ATWT ever got new writers who know the history of the show. I would love to see her back at ATWT as Diana McColl. It would give Lisa a storyline too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members UKBoi Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 I totally agree about Emily Harper as Bridget Forrester. I thought she'd be perfect for that role and far more age appropriate, looks wise. I also think they could bring on Lindsay Hartley as a new fashion designer/love interest for Rick who'd be a Nicole Walker type character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Drew Posted January 22, 2007 Members Share Posted January 22, 2007 I just need to comment that the dude playing Noah looks like his face has aged a decade in the year since he began playing him. I didn't recognize him at first. The curly mess on his head hid all his wrinkles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
