Members David_Vickers Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 ABC SID states that sources close to Gordon Thomson (ex-Adam Carrington, DYNASTY, ex-Mason Capwell, SANTA BARBARA) will soon "swashbuckle" his way into town as a pirate. (SID states the role would be a modern day pirate). Also it updates the news that Opal and Palmer's son, Petey is being aged, but that AMC reports they have no news to report on either at this time.

Members David_Vickers Posted February 13, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 It's a damned shame that Julia Barr(ex-Brooke) is no longer on the show. Gordon Thomson would be a good love interest for Brooke. Probably will end up being another man for Erica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members whyamcwhy Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 LMAO!!!! A modern day pirate?!?!?!?! Are they serious???? That is so ridiculous!! I am not sure I want to know where they are taking the show. Maybe they will do a take-off on Pirates of the Carribean. He will probably be a love interest for Erica. Or maybe Krystal. Does it say if the role is contract or just short-term? I am so glad I am not watching this garbage anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 Wow, I LOVE Gordon Thomson. Loved him since Dynasty and Santa Barbara. Too bad he's coming to a show I cannot actually face watching at the moment. And as for love interests, why, didn't any of you get McTavish's memo? Modern Day Pirate will probably be genuflecting at the Altar of Saint Babe, the Walking Miracle Who Loves With All Her Heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tzelkos Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 I don't totally trust SID. I love Gordon though. Fingers crossed. I'm ALL for more adult characters, even pirates! But I always wanted Gordon to come to the show and be paired with Julia Barr If this IS true though, more proof that this budget stuff is being overblown by TPTB. Although he may just be short-term.

Members EricaKane70 Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 Omg, they better not be pimping erica out again. I just don't get this, if they wanted erica with someone else besides jack/jeff there was david and if they wanted to add another female to the mix there was brooke. I can't see the Diva with the pirate, I don't think erica would go there unless she could give him a makeover.lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Daphne Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 I wonder if "modern day pirate" means something like a corporate raider? Someone who will try to buy/steal Fusion or Cambias Industries? But who would his love interest be? It can't be Erica (she's got her hands full with Jeff and Jack).

Members Pine Charles Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 I'm sure they don't mean an actual pirate..... but that would be funny! He'll be swashbuckler - an Errol Flynn-type. Bringing in all these new characters when Opal, Livia, Palmer, ect. could be on the screen is really stupid, though. Brooke is gone. This new character could have been great for Brooke. Otherwise, I don't want to see him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members whyamcwhy Posted February 13, 2007 Members Share Posted February 13, 2007 I am sure that they mean more of a corporate pirate/raider but AMC is in bad shape and I wouldn't put anything past them!!!!! He could be the Jack Sparrow of daytime!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted February 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 14, 2007 Another thought, Gordon Thomson would make a great Dimitri Marick, but I doubt that is what AMC has in mind. SID didn't say whether it's short-term or long-term, but did hint at Spring for both Thomson and the SORAS'd Petey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members casandranow Posted February 14, 2007 Members Share Posted February 14, 2007 There are rumors that Alexander Cambias isn't dead. So maybe its a recast for him? Corporate raider would certainly fit him. The age demo is interesting though, he would have to be an Erica or Krystal potential love interest.

Members Tzelkos Posted February 14, 2007 Members Share Posted February 14, 2007 As much as I want this to be true SOD doesn't mention it. Whenever SID is the only one reporting something it's usually false. SID has been reporting the Petey thing for more than a year now, and only once during that period were they actually casting the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms Deeve Posted February 15, 2007 Members Share Posted February 15, 2007 Does the name Chris Stamp ring a bell? "Eriker" (as he called her in his Brooklyn-ease) fell head over heals for the very blue collared Mr Stamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jinx_avery Posted February 15, 2007 Members Share Posted February 15, 2007 He could be Ross Chandler come back to battle Petey for control of Cortland Electronics if JM's Palmer is indeed slated for retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
