Recast the role: Thomas Forrester (B&B)

I would like to see Thomas back eventually (as long as they don't pair him with Bridget, Ashley or any of the Logans), but IMO, Drew Tyler Bell was a dud. His acting left much to be desired. He was okay as a "cute" sixteen-year-old Thomas and he kind of looks like Taylor, but I don't buy him as an adult. He even looks younger than Mauzy and Wood, who play his younger sisters!

I would love to see Blair Redford (Miguel, Passions; ex-Scott, Y&R) in the role. He is a good actor, very good-looking and could easily pass as a Ridge/Taylor hybrid.

I don't want anyone but Drew Tyler Bell in the role of Thomas. I wish they'd give him something to do!

DTB was perfect as Thomas. The perfect combo of Ridge & Taylor and had great chem with the entire cast.

The role isnt needed tho.

I liked DTB a lot. I liked him with Amber and even that dud Caitlin. The problem is that B&B keeps casting for cute and adorable and then have the problem that the actors don't trasfer right into adult storylines. They need to "pull a Rick" and rather than going for a boyish type need to go for a real soap hunk in the traditional sense.

I'll play him!

I wanted Thomas to come back after a few years being mentored in Europe by a suave, european designer (Paolo Seganti) and when they both travel to L.A. it's revealed that Thomas has been having an affair with his older mentor -- Thomas is gay.

Come on, the Forrester and Spectra companies don't have one gay designer?!

I agree with statement one, but not statement two. Thomas, IMO, is very, very, very needed. B&B's younger generation is barely anything at all, so they have the older characters acting like lovesick teenagers and it's just silly.

Yes, he does. His last soap role was on ATWT.

Fuuuck. He didn't look like THAT on AMC!
