Members Josh Posted July 26, 2007 Members Share Posted July 26, 2007 So anyone watch Inturn? I do!! Laurette the English actress with big curly hair who was sent home today got a little surprise!! Christopher Goutman informed her that she would be appearing for two weeks on ATWT! She'll be playing Kit a bar owner in Idaho where Jack and Carly go together when they are working on a mystery!!! I'm thrilled!! I love Laurette!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WorldTurner Posted July 26, 2007 Members Share Posted July 26, 2007 I love Lauretta and I am thrilled about the little Carjack spoiler but especially happy that Lauretta got the two week role! I wasn't happy at first that she didn't get a callback but in the long run this may be even better. There was no guarantee she would win, but if she does well in this part, this could help open other doors for her. Congratulations Lauretta! I know you commented in the other thread about Jessamyn. I thought she would be eliminated but I get the feeling they wanted to make sure that Lauretta got a shot on the show and she might not have if they left her in for the voting. I think Jessamyn will easily be eliminated by the voters. She has potential but she needs training. Right now I think it comes down to Ryan or Dyon and I am leaning towards Ryan but waiting to see how they do on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members angel Posted July 26, 2007 Members Share Posted July 26, 2007 I don't watch InTurn but I'm glad to see CarJack together. And reading your posts, I'm interested in seeing Lauretta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Josh Posted July 27, 2007 Author Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 Laurette is great! She can be loud, sometimes over the top but she is good. In her final scene/audition she was wonderful! I would love to see this turn into something more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stenbeck212 Posted July 27, 2007 Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 Wow, this industry is turning into a joke at record speed. Weeks are spent on a contest for day players! Couldn't they just hold a raffle or something? It makes the casting directors look lazy as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 27, 2007 Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 Instead Goutman should find/look for a new HW and fire Pissanante!!! Getting another newbie isnt going to solve ATWT ratings woes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Josh Posted July 27, 2007 Author Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 True enough!! Ryan and I talked about that, they should hold a competition for new writers or something like that! I like InTurn, they are just going off the SoapStar stuff...I still love Laurette! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 27, 2007 Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 ATWT doesnt need new talent! It needs a NEW HEAD WRITER!!!!!! If Goutman gave half as much atttention to finding a new HW as he does this inturn crap imagine how better ATWT would be. Goutman is a hack like Pissanante!

Members stenbeck212 Posted July 27, 2007 Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 ^I too have grown to see Goutman as a major part of the problem, as much as the writing. Even Laurence Caso was able to hold things together for a couple years after Doug Marland's death. That being said, with the wretched state Guiding Light is in, I wonder if there's some sort of mandate at P&G to let the shows suck harder than a Hoover. ATWT Spends time & resources on InTurn while GL is building houses and airing cheesy viewer home videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WorldTurner Posted July 27, 2007 Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 It's all a promotional piece for the show trying to attract more viewers with an online reality show. And I doubt it cost the show much at all since obviously from the auditions a lot was paid for by advertising dollars. I see nothing wrong with doing it and it was fun to watch. It is only for a 13 week role so they aren't casting the show this way! And even day players need to have talent! It doesn't make casting directors look lazy since this is done for promotion. There is a picture in the PGP blog today if Jack and Carly in the bar http://pgpphoto.com/IMAGES/UPLOADED/active...1807232007W.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 27, 2007 Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 I wouldnt mind having Laurence Caso back at ATWT as EP. LOL about your GL spending time.......a poster from another board posted......this...."If you watch GL". "We(They) will build you a house"....LOL. I so sick of the new new opening of GL and that crap what is your light. The show is even worse shape than ATWT. P&G should do some massive firings pronto!!

Members Josh Posted July 27, 2007 Author Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 The heart pill sponsored it again this year and they did have several (at least two) "placement auditions" so yeah that works for them too. Plus Southwest is the airline that "sends em home!" I'm on the fence... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheyenne Posted July 27, 2007 Members Share Posted July 27, 2007 I agree. InTurn is just something fun for the show. It's not like they actually think this inturn is going to save ATWT or anything. Like you said, it's a 13 week role... On that note I'm glad Lauretta got this two weeks deal, I really liked her. Of the four left I thought Jessamyn was the weakest and I hope Dyon win because I'm not really seeing it with Ryan. I think he's a little stiff and he's not relaxed in his audition scenes.
