Members Tishy Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 Amber likes the younger boys. He better watch out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stenbeck212 Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 He could almost be a young Eric Braeden. I love a good genetic match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Matt P. Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 I honestly think Venus should be credited for this. She practically had this idea with her blog Genoa City! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AddictedToSoaps Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 LOL! He probably should. ITA. The show has enough young cast members right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Shawn Posted January 17, 2008 Author Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 They'll probably have him come in and take Nick's job and have the two brothers clash like the titans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hmmm... contract or recurring? Anyway, it will be interesting to see how things evolve... however, we have enough teens already. I pray that Y&R doesn't become infected with the need to cast younger character all the time in the future. The veterans can carry the show, and I like the current younger set.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 He's cute, but more Newman's? WE NEED MORE ABBOTTS Anyway, should be interesting to see how this works out, with Victor disowning Nick yesterday, looks like Victor Jr. is gonna be the new favorite son.... The teens haven't really taken over Y&R, they're a big part, but the Lily/Colleen/Daniel/Devon crowd is B players and in B storylines. Plus, I think Victor Jr.. will interact more with the Newman's than any other group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 I so agree, I love the Newman family as much as everyone else but it's the Abbott family that is my favorite. They drove some of Y&R's best storylines through the 90s (like Jill and John's divorce, my absolute favorite!) First of all they need to get Ashley back on board and then find a suitable recast for Billy and Colleen. (While they're at it find a decent Mackenzie!) Then this Victor Jr would make sense. At least the actor looks like Eric Braeden and can probably act (hopefully). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dm. Posted January 17, 2008 Members Share Posted January 17, 2008 1999, right? That was a good set, but every young set was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
