They can't keep doing the merry-go-round with Craig. I liked Hunt Block's Craig. I liked Scott Bryce's Craig. But the two are completely different characters in my mind and I was personally looking forward to seeing where Bryce's was going now that he had been sufficiently humanized. Bringing Hunt Block back would be stupid. Either Bryce or nothing right now, or Block in a few years.

I've got Lindsay Lohan's Rumors stuck inside my head for some weird reason. Scott Bryce is the one and only Craig Montgomery for me. There's just something about Hunt Block that I don't like, but I can't figure out what it is. I guess it's because I see him as Ben Warren on Guiding Light. :D

I agree with this. Fans wanted Hunt back before Jeffrey Meek and Scott. There was absolutely nothing wrong with Scott's performance. Heck I didn't even like him the first time he played Craig but he eventually totally won me over this time. I liked Hunt, but I think Scott worked hard to give Craig back some layers and make the character work again. It would be a real slap in the face to the fans now to return anyone other than Scott to the role.

The only part of this I would like to be true is that Goutman has heard what an uproar firing Scott has caused and hopefully that would make him beg Scott to return.

I'm very skeptical about the Parker kills Sam rumor. That seemed to originate from Trixie and her track record is near zero.

I too hope Tala can act! Pretty girl and heaven knows Luke and Noah are long overdue a real story.

Well, I doubt ATWT can afford Hunt anymore. However, in one of the latest mags, their rumors have Scott's departure not being money related. My guess is that our IDIOT writers (or idiot scabs..) just don't have a way to work him into a story outside of the Paul/Meg triangle, which has proven to be a COMPLETE bust. The next time anyone complains about the "talented" actors thrown under the Carjack bus, I'm going to point to Paul/Meg and say..."it's that way with the entire show."

Oddly, I'm hoping the uproar will show Goutman how much Craig (and Scott) is loved by the fans, and maybe give him an incentive to come up with a story for Craig and bring Scott back.

As for the Carly/Jack/Parker rumors....I got a bad feeling it's true. One reliable site's "future spoilers" have Carly and Jack rallying by Parker. Who'd have thunk TIIC would do two back to back bad murders?

She's very pretty. Let's hope she can act.

Good luck, Grayson, but with the writers still on strike, it won't be easy.

Wow. And I thought Will poisoning Rose was disturbing!

Of course, since it is a rumor, and not an actual spoiler, it might not be true. Still, I wouldn't put it past ATWT to go there, if you know what I mean.

Meanwhile, let's hope Parker takes out Cowboy Jack, too.

Agree with those who think this would be a bad idea. If true, then Goutman is absolutely clueless as to what the audience wants to see.

I think Bryce was let go, b/c Craig, along with Rosanna, had been written into a corner. Once you have a character plot his own wife's miscarriage, it's difficult to get the audience to root for him.

Did it say Sam would be murdered or just shot? If he's murdered, then, yeah, back-to-back, unrelated murders is dumb.

They might as well rename the show THE NEW EDGE OF NIGHT, with all the malice and mayhem that's been going on lately.

I don't think most of the audience was having a problem with it though and that is thanks to Scott. He made us realize that Craig could never actually go through with it. He added the necessary layers to the character in order for him to be forgiven. And hey this is the same man that had his daughter kidnapped and survived that! :lol: I also don't think it hurt at all that Paul and Meg just aren't that popular with a lot of the fans, so a lot of people just weren't that upset about it as Craig is far more popular.

I tend to think it is more of a case of the writers not knowing what to do with Craig. They ran into the same dilemma in the past when they broke up Craig and Rosanna and put her with Paul. In this case I think Paul and Meg are just a giant blackhole that sucked the life out of Craig :angry: In reality he never should have been trapped with the dreadful pair and there was so much more that could be done with the character.

I just hope the fans remain vocal and Goutman comes to his senses.

    • Speaking of Ashley, here is what the actress posted on her IG regarding her thoughts on playing the scenes between her/Derek (and I think even in her responses to comments, was even team Derek LOL) https://www.instagram.com/p/DJ28rL7NgaV/
    • He needs to cheat on hubby!   Leslie continues to entertain.   Love, Shanice!!   Tracy knows Anita's secret.   Next week's preview has me anxious for Monday.
    • I thought of you when I saw her boobs had returned.

      Another great episode by the new writing team.
    • -- Leslie's "Miss Bitch to you" comment was priceless, but let's not forget the good moment when Ted called her a bitch. -- I like nuTed as a counterpoint to Leslie. I don't need someone who comes off as a killer every time they meet. Nicole would not have married -- or lasted -- with that kind of guy.  -- And honestly, I never thought former Ted was close to wanting to Kill Leslie, either. -- Vanessa has become obnoxious to me. Her lecture and attack on Ted was ludicrously hypocritical. The biggest slut in town weighing in on cheating in a marriage? Spare me. -- Joey and Vanessa are going to have sex on the table in his casino backroom? So romantic, Vanessa. Just what you want in another guy. Spare me. -- Good Anita/Tracy scenes, but we need to move past scenes in which details aren't given about "what happened." It's not realistic that they'd keep having conversations and never get down to specifics. -- The previews for next week look insanely good.
    • BTG: - Sonia Blangiardo-Goins first listed as Director on May 23
    • Ciara/Victoria usually wears Free People, Revolve, or Aritizia, which is expensive, but mid tier. Most of the girls on the show wear the same brands.  You can find it cheap at Nordstrom rack.  Like the John Varvatos jackets that every guy wears lol. I do retail for a living so I have a bit of knowledge on this.  The prices the Worn on TV shows aren't real.  It's just the original retail price.
    • Ah, gotcha Ciara with an I not Ceara with an E. Also, according to the shopping site, Sami's outfit was pricey because it was the jacket from one suit, and the pants from another.  Can you imagine anyone wearing that awful green tweed from head to toe?  This is one time that costuming did a character a solid and broke up that pattern.
    • Aqua is an in house brand for Bloomingdales.  It's not terribly pricey, but not cheap. $150 for dresses.
    • Also, just checked, Hope was wearing Alice + Olivia ($595) and Sami wore a more shocking green, and it was by Aqua (price not indicated)
