Idisagree with you there, Rion. I remember myself and others RAISING HELL on this board over that wannabe freak who tried to replace Juliet Mills -- even for a few days. Who cared that she was on "Dear John?" That girl was getting NO love. NO A for effort. Just sheer, unadulterated HELL for DARING to step in Juliet's shoes -- as if ANYBODY could fill them. HA!

And don't even get me started on Ms. Priscilla Garrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrita. ET fans were BITTERLY divisive over her. Some loved her, yes, but ALOT hated her because she made Theresa a stone cold !@#$%^&*] and didn't add the vulnerability and innocence and layers that LKH gives.

I should remind you that both Tabitha and Theresa have been recast, and those worked out just fine.

Worked out fine?!

There was an outcry on here and other boards about them recasting Juliet. For one thing, They never told us ahead so that alone pissed people off. As for Theresa, I know some on here liked Pricilla Garita but there was a overwhelmingly HUGE outcry over Theresa and Fox being recasted temporarily. The ratings, which were on an upswing during that time, even dwindled a bit during that time because people boycotted the show.

So, neither worked out just fine. The only recasts that have worked on Passions are Jade Harlow, Cathy Doe, Andrea Evans, Deanna Wright, Heidi Mueller (to an extent), and Kam Heskin. That is it.

Rion, you act more and more like JER does everyday. It's pretty obvious JER thinks pretty much anyone is recastable (hence the number of recasts Passions has which is another hindrance to the show) and that may very well be because he doesn't meet with the actors. Now here you are agreeing with that mindset. I swear, you really come off like you are JER himself at times.

I'm convinced Rion is JER.

Anyway, she was ok but I HATED that temporary Theresa recast. I liked the Fox recast but the Theresa one did NOT work for me. Tabitha's didn't work for me either.

I mean, I think Rion is JER too sometimes.

I mean, "R I on PASSIONS?"

No, but you write it!

IT's SO obvious.

Gee, what a surprise. Yet another plot twist dealing with some form of sexual assault.

I'm so glad JER will be unemployed soon enough. It couldn't happen to a more deserving person.

Hogan, I disagree. It's not really sexual assault because it's just a fantasy for viewers who have a fetish of seeing Eric Martsolf (or just "Ethan" for passionate ET fans) tied up and naked. There's a tight niche audience for such fare. Don't knock it..

I think you can add Eric Martsolf, Seth Hall and Mark Wystrych to the list (but Mark is a love 'em/hate 'em). I'd also add Kristina Sisco, but it's too soon to judge her because she's only played the real Charity in one episode.

Joint, you can spin it any way you like. It doesn't change the fact that it IS sexual assault.

Actually, it's not. Because these things aren't happening to Eric; they're happening to a fictional character. So it's perhaps suggested or simulated sexual assault, but foremost, because it's not real, it's hot.

Obviously, they're not happening in real life! I'm talking about the character Ethan, here. Jesus, I don't even know where to begin here...

Ethan can't really be raped because he doesn't really exist. Fancy was never really raped because she's not real.

There is, however, a real Sheridan Crane (it was mentioned in SOD or SOW a few years back that crazed Passions fans would call her up). So if Sheridan ever got raped, it would indeed be a real rape and would not be hot at all.

I am so lost.

We are talking about the CHARACTERS here. The CHARACTERS CAN and ARE being assaulted, raped, etc.

As far as I know, Rion and JSF, you are the only ones referring to the real life people.

The characters are just that. CHARACTERS. Characters aren't real!! They can't be raped!!! It's all fake, fake fake!!!!!!!!

And you should know that better than anyone, Jimmy!
