Recommended Posts

  • Members

I know, I just started back watching Guiding Light after about 6 or 7 years away, but Brian Gaskill is not Dylan to me, I don't fill the history with him playing Dylan Shayne Lewis!!! All My Children need to call him asap and make him an offer he can't refuse for the role of Bobby Warner, so Morgan Englund can come home to GL. Way off-topic, but Billy has a huge stomach, i was looking at it today. Billy has aged a little but he still looks great. I am enjoying everything with GL right now, but could someone tell who Gus is??

It is a shame that B&B never really gave him a chance...but hey that's there MO with stars. I did read somewhere that Gaskill has fired Michael Bruno as his manager and has resigned with his former manager who got him the gigs on AMC and PC. I wouldn't be surprised if he and his family moved back to Los Angeles, but I would LOVE to see him back on AMC as Bobby Warner.

I'm not protesting the recast. Morgan Englund was at best, passable. I'm just saying Brian Gaskill doesn't work in the role. He doesn't seem to fit into the Lewis family, and he hasn't thrown off a "paternal" vibe yet.

I just realized I hate that they're calling Susan "Daisy". And did I miss any mention of her adoptive father Jim LeMay? I don't even know what last name she's going by.

Gus Aitoro (aka Nick August) is a former fed who came to town. He annoyed everyone for about two years, then fell in love with Harley. I still don't like him. He's Alan's son, but they never talk, and he stays far away from the Spaulding clan in general.

To me BG has been shoved down our throats to the point where I do not care: AMC, PC, B&B, ATWT & GL! I mean did they think he would bring this huge fanbase following, what's next Lynn Marie is going to swoop him up.

Was it ever revealed or reported that Morgan Englund turned down returning to the role? He's not the greatest actor ever to grace my TV, but when compared to the likes of BG he is. And from the way they have been writing Dylan lately it would assume this role is only recurring and it would have been easy for ME to return! OYE! GL you kill me sometimes, really kill me!!!

No, no, no - GL HAS TO KEEP HIM!

Simply for the fact that I don't want him anywhere near a soap that I watch. This one he stunk up airtime on B&B was a nightmare. Next thing he'd pop up on Y&R in a frontburner role if GL ditches him... Therefore: Keep him. ALthough I know that this a mean thing to wish because Gaskill is absolutely horrendous.

I don’t post here often because of the negativity I read in posts. However, I believe Brian Gaskill is a much better actor than most posters in here are inclined to rate him. I’ve enjoyed the time he’s played Dylan on GL, and I hope to continue watching him in the role. For fans of Morgan Englund…why would you want him to give up a full-time job in LA to fly back and forth to NY for a recurring role? I’ve only been posting on the internet for five years, but I think we all tend to forget that these actors are people, too…and that they see and feel just like you and I do. As for Brian switching managers, I’m not seeing that now…he has to remain with Bruno as long as GL needs him as Dylan. Bruno specializes in daytime, whereas Brian’s former manager worked with that and primetime, etc. If you’re playing a recurring role, it pays to explore your options and see what else is out there in the casting world. I could see Brian doing that.

      Here's the question, let's say you're Melissa, -- Would you be forgiven for not posting about Bo & Hope's anniversary today on social media because you didn't include the number of years that either of them were assumed dead in the last 40 years? Is it rude to Billie and Carly, if the Brady's ignore the time Bo was with them?
    • I am no Bo/Hope fan girl, but I think the ages were about 18/22.  It was more Doug finding Hope in a comprising position with Bo that gave him a heart attack lol.
    • Never forget, as we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Bo and Hope, that their age gap was so wide it gave OG Doug a heart attack.
    • Doug can legally order drinks and has since he arrived so I assume he's like 22 or 23.  A little too old to be creeping on Holly, but they are all graduating or graduated (Ari) so it's not the worst.
    • I just think with high schoolers, you have to establish the age of their romantic interest.  Otherwise, it can get really creepy.  If Doug was 19-20, I would've enjoyed his poetry/books discussion with Holly because on paper, it was actually pretty good. 
    • I am glad Ned gets some say.  I don't really understand why he was left out of this decision.  We have no evidence that Ned wouldn't have 100% supported Brook's choice. I can understand leaving Sonny and Olivia out of this if BLQ didn't want to reveal Dane was the dad, but Ned should have been in the loop. Yes, Donna is the most adorable child in the world.   An unnecessary Sonny/Carly child, but adorable AF.   Justice for Avery though.  Where was she?
    • Peyton Meyer is 26, but I'm telling myself Doug's about 21, since all the actors in his group (Tate/Holly/Arianna/Sofia) are all a few years older than their characters. Actually, Leo Howard is a decade older than Tate! Still not the greatest optics, but still much more tolerable.
    • Michael coming back and taking his son home was a great cliffhanger......however, my number one pet-peeve on soaps is episode-to-episode continuation.  How in the world could the writers not show us Gio/Brooklyn/Lois?? I was so bummed by that.  Is Scarlett Spears (Donna) not just the cutest little girl? Those dimples!  She was so adorable with her performance.   
    • If he's younger, he is very precocious when it comes to loan sharking, prison, and poetry.  I wonder if he is meant to be younger than Javi?
    • That was another thing was surprised me in a good way. Having a teenage character hook up with a total stranger on her second episode?  Wow. We don't often see that.  But to have it happen with Diddler-Doug? This is now the second girl he's gone after who's still in high school.  In my mind, Diddler-Doug is in his mid 20's, unless the show has established that he's not?
