Members Chris B Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 In the new SOD it mentions that DAYS tried to steal Kyle Lower away from B&B, but Lowder turned them down. Would've been great to have Brady return with Chloe, but I *LOVE* Lowder as Rick and LOVE Rick and Ashley. As long as they keep him away from Phoebe I'll be pleased. So how do DAYS fans feel? Are you glad he turned them down or do you wish he had returned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted December 12, 2007 Administrator Share Posted December 12, 2007 Never liked Kyle as an actor so I'm glad he's not returning to DAYS. Whenever I think of Lowder, I just picture him singing (popstar Rick and showtunes Brady). I can't take him seriously. Ed Scott and Marnie Saitta will hire a better actor to play Brady.

Members YRBB Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 Well, of course he turned them down. Who in their right mind would leave B&B right now? lol Very interesting news, I had no idea. Thanks for posting. To be honest, I really, really liked Justin Torkildsen as Rick, so I am bound to have a LITTLE bit of resentment for Lowder, but I do think that he is a good actor and I also love him with Ashley. I just hope they get together and that they are given something interesting to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a real Lowder fan though one achievement he did make was outnumber Austin Peck for scenes in which a character doesn't wear a shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 Yeah umm....glad Brady (as Kyle Lowder) is still gone. I never liked Brady and thought he was too......odd to be John's son. Let's pray they get a strong actor to play him if Brady does return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted December 12, 2007 Administrator Share Posted December 12, 2007 You mean like the son of John Black running around a playground singing a musical to a girl he's after? Ohh...Tom Langan....*shudder* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 Exactly. Brady was a sorry excuse for a child, lol. Maybe if he'd grown up in real time, he would have been more like his dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 I don't understand how Days could try to steal an actor that's under contract with another soap. They wouldn't have any idea when his cycle is up and what the outs are in his contract. Of course the could always offer to buy-out his contract, but Lowder isn't worth that much of a hassle. Lowder is a piss-poor actor, I wish Justin Torkildsen was still Rick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not as if Kyle can just tell Bradley Bell, I want to go back to DAYS, and he would just be nice enough to let him out of his contract! Anyway, its interesting that once Nadia left for good last time, DAYS had no use for him. He never came across to me as John's son, and just don't buy him as a romantic lead. I see him in musicals though lol Would be great to have Brady back; I see someone with dark hair, in his mid to late twenties, who can have hate sex with his step sister Sami!!!!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 Sadly, I kind of liked some of that. I liked alot of early Broe and it was different. It just got old fast. I am sure that was for John's funeral and not a long-term thing since the Chloe return was in the works since August and it was always rumored she would return for a story with Philip so I think they always knew Brady wouldn't be returning long-term. Maybe Days tried to cash in on the other half of the Koslow deal that they never used to get Mascolo. If he ever returns, I hope it's with a strong actor. I didn't mind his looks so much. He wasn't a bad actor all the time. His emotional scenes sucked though IMO. I also doubt Ari would return as Nicole if he ever returned. It would be awkward, most likely. I don't think he's that great on B&B either but I'm glad he isn't returning in any capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 Thank God Kyle Lowder stayed on B&B, and why in the hell would DAYS try to steal him from B&B anyhow. Lowder was one of the worst actors to ever grace DAYS. He also was poorly miscast. He doesn't look anything like the son of John & Isabella should. I do look for Brady Black to return to Salem in the first 3 months of 2008. I sure hope that a much stronger actor with dark brown or black hair is cast in the role. GH's Dominic Rains(Dr. Leo Julian) would be good in the role maybe, as would Chris Beetem(ex-Jordan, ATWT, ex-Tate, OLTL, although his real age is too old, he does look younger).

Administrator Toups Posted December 12, 2007 Administrator Share Posted December 12, 2007 I'm wondernig that too. Does it say in the article how DAYS tried to steal him? *Slowly moves away from Tim* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted December 12, 2007 Author Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 Lowder's acting has improved on B&B. He's done some amazing work this year, especially with the Ridge fued earlier in the year. I may be in the miniroty, but I prefer him to the previous (very dorky) Rick.

Members daysfan Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 As Tim suggested I also wondered if they tried to use the Koslow/Mascolo thing. But meh, I couldn't care either way. Sometimes I enjoyed Brady a bit and saw potential in him, but mostly he was always "blah" for me. If he comes back lets hope he has a strong actor and good story, if he doesn't thats fine. And quite frankly I don't think we need anymore men(hell maybe not women either depending on how Chloe turns out in the future) in the Shawn/Belle/Philip/Chloe age range.

Members brimike Posted December 12, 2007 Members Share Posted December 12, 2007 I think "steal" might be a melodramatic SOD press term. They probably made a phone call to the actor when they sealed the deal with Nadia. Just to see where he stood, if he would be interested down the line, how happy he was at B&B, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
