DAYS: The Casting of Jeremy


Recommended Posts

Will Days remember that Jeremy is part Jewish, as he was raised in Israel by his mother?

He's awfully blonde considering his mother was dark and Michael T. Weiss was dark as well. And I don't detect an Israeli accent.

Hmmm...

Well it depends on how they cast Jeremy. They could've been going with the most recent Mike, and in that case, Roark Critchlow would have been the one they looked upon when casting. Critchlow is a blonde. I will agree that I thought Jeremy would have dark hair. That's how I always imagined him since Mike (Michael T. Weiss) and Robin had dark hair.

There are blonde jews.

If he's blonde and his parents are dark haired, that really has nothing to do with the fact that he's Jewish. DAYS has screwed up casting once again, but religion has nothing to do with it.

I know a fair amount of Jews with blonde hair, but they do have "ethnically" Jewish looks. This Jeremy doesn't even look like he has any Jewish heritage at all. He looks like an A&F model straight out of WASP-land.

They should at least acknowledge the fact his mother's Jewish and he was raised as a Jew. Somehow, I don't see that happening.

Me either, Y&R. He looks too plastic for Jeremy. Like a Ken-doll. Blonde Jeremy is one thing - generic Jeremy is another thing entirely. If they wanted a bland character, they could have picked someone who was automatically so different from the normal soap crowd.

Maybe they'll surprise us, but I doubt it. Hell, he probably converted.

I mean I'm not saying you can't have WASPs on a show or they can't be good characters, that's ludicrous and eliminates like 90% of all soap characters ever. But they had the opportunity to add something a little different here, and as always they blew the opportunity.

Well he's very good looking. But I think a lot will depend on how he's written.

I must say I can't stand the way they're writing the new "slutty Valley Girl" version of Stephanie. Just in a short time they've made her far more obnoxious than Chelsea or Willow ever were at their worst.

Well, to be fair ... Jennifer (his aunt) is blonde. Abby (his cousin) is blonde. Laura (his grandmother) is blonde.

And Mike (Roark Critchlow) was indeed blonde (I always thought of it as brown/blonde ... dirty blonde?), so ... I buy it, but I just didn't picture Jeremy looking like this and acting like this ... I really REALLY hope they add some depth.

I also found it ludicrous that no one even blinked when it was mentioned Jeremy's last name was Horton. At least on Monday we see Nick mention Jeremy is his cousin but they don't know each other ...

    • There's been something of a media blackout, but beyond that the only reason it's getting any attention is because Trump and the Republicans and their sycophants in the press are trying to create riots to pave the way for martial law.  And of course all the people who care more about setting fires and destroying property than anything else are happy to help them.  I've seen more interest in people arguing about whether or not they should be waving Mexican flags and how American flags are tainted than I have in the cause, which just reinforces what a malaise we are in. Many who claim to care about immigration only care to the tips of their fingers, just like Palestine and the rest. But these policies what people voted for. As long as they personally aren't affected, they are eating all this decimation up.
    • I was happy to see Caroline again even in one short scene. This was her first appearance since April 3. I was wondering why we haven't seen her, since Hayley desperately needs a talk-to aside from Bill.  I am also wondering where Jacob's partner is. Does Marcel have an opinion on Jacob spending so much time on the Laura case? Especially since Marcel warned Jacob about allowing his family to get in the way of police business. I liked seeing some vulnerability from Leslie today when she begged Eva to give her the helmet and gloves back. I'm still wondering how she will get out of the corner she has been written into. When we were first introduced to Leslie, she seemed like she might be a Machiavelli but since then it's clear that she more of a haphazard villainess doesn't seem to have a long term plan aside from causing random chaos.  Chelsea's desperation is cringeworthy but I actually think it's fairly realistic for someone who is closeted or newly out. 
    • Not to mention Leslie has made a formal complaint and requested a restraining order so there is a trail of her acknowledging that Kat is doing the most and basically harassing her. I bet that bites her in the butt   It truly is. Chelsea is 23 and doc has to be at least 30. She has too much to lose so I don't see why she'd even bother considering an immature social media girl thats already showing signs of acting unstable. She knows who she is so she knows all the mess surrounding her such as filming her mother shooting a gun at a wedding, not to mention the recent drama with her WORK colleagues, Ted and Niicole. Madison needs to not get involved with a daughter from that family. It just reeks o mess that could impact her professionally
    • I'm really sure now that Leslie is going to skate on the charges now that Kat stupidly broke in and planted the evidence. At this point Jacob probably won't even being able to tie that helmet and gloves back to Leslie because it's been moved around too much.
    • Seriously Drew is scum. Does he actually even love Willow or does he just like having someone he can control?!
    • Having them interact so much now has been such a treat. My new favorite duo. The desperation is such a turn off.
