Members ljacks13 Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 According to the new SOD, ABC is interested in snapping up Beth Ehlers. Her contract expires in May, and reportedly interested in making a change. A GL rep had no comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 I just hope they bring her to AMC as a love interest for Ricky Paul Goldin. These gimmicky things NEVER work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 Wow. If this could possibly be true, then I would probably say that it's apparent that the current actors on the show are not happy with GL's current direction and haven't been happy for quite sometime. I mean, I'm a spoiler whore and all when reading about departures or firings, but I also take notice to the actors attitude when watching the show 'live'. Like with RPG, he looks like he's just over it and with Beth, I'm not surprised if her fan mail has been nothing but ugly recently within these past couple of months. Just my opinion. I also think Crystal Chappell wants to jump ship as soon as she can as well as Marcy Rylan. I wouldn't mind Marcy Rylan leaving because she's extrememly talented and I would want her to pursue other projects. Selfishly, I'd want Crystal Hunt back as Lizzie Spaulding because I miss her little dog Roxie. She was too cute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted March 19, 2008 Administrator Share Posted March 19, 2008 Losing her would be a huge blow! Looks like GL is a sinking ship and people want off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members UKBoi Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 Hasnt Beth leaving been rumoured ever since she was spotted talking to Mark Teschner at the Emmys a few years ago. Honestly, though, I cant see her on any of the ABC soaps, because in five or six years time she wont be used, not to mention she wont be the 'star' like she is on GL. It would be like Kristian Alfonso joining the cast of All My Children... it just wouldnt be the same. Plus she's FAR more likely to win an Emmy on Guiding Light.

Members LeClerc Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 For years I have always thought Beth would make a great Dixie re-cast. She just reminds me alot Cady McClain. Now I certainly do not want her as Dixie knowing Cady would be willing to come back. But back when Cady left in 2001 (of her own choice and it did not look like she would be back) I thought if anyone could fill the role it was Beth.

Administrator Toups Posted March 19, 2008 Administrator Share Posted March 19, 2008 If Susan Haskell doesn't want to go back to OLTL, how about Beth as Marty? No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 JMO but I think if she does jump to ABC it won't be AMC. Regardless you're so right about the writers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 I really don't want her paired with RPG again. I loved Gus and Harley, but lightning never strikes twice, especially when it's these forced actor reunions with different characters. Like Stefan and Katherine on GH. Of course, it's right up Frons' alley to pull something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 I don't think it's the feeling of being on a sinking ship rather than plain simple money. P&G doesn't pay much anymore and if there is a counteroffer it's easy to take it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 I think Beth would make a great addition to an ABC soap. I don't want her on AMC though. The gimmick of putting two actors paired on one show and doing it again on another rarely works. It hasn't worked well for ABC in the most recent past. So they shouldn't attempt it. I could see her on OLTL. Either as a new character or as a recast. I wouldn't want her as Marty, though maybe Cassie or Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 Kelly crossed my mind too, Ryan. Not sure about Cassie - but Kelly, I can definitely see. Kassie and Beth would be fun to watch together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AddictedToSoaps Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 Come to AMC Beth!!! Pair her up with RPG!!! That would be so amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members UKBoi Posted March 19, 2008 Members Share Posted March 19, 2008 I could also see her as Kelly, and if it means Dan Gauthier comes back as Kevin then I'm all the more for it. However, I really think she belongs on GL...aside from Zimmer she's the star and it would be a blow to the show if they lost her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
