Members Paul Raven Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 With the news that Olivia is returning to the show and the ongoing discussion re Victoria Rowell's(Dru) coming back,my thoughts turned to Malcolm. . Should Malcolm be recast?.He is Neil's brother , Olivia's ex and Lily's father. Shemar is firmly entrenched in primetime and even when Criminal Minds is cancelled down the road,he is unlikely to return. Is the role one of those that couldn't be replaced or is Malcolm too important to be offscreen?Or do you think the character is not needed? Any ideas who could take over? One suggestion - Terrell Tilford (ex David GL,currently on DOOL from time to time) Your thoughts please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 Shermar was hot and very identified in the role of Malcolm. Anybody recast in the role would find it difficult to live up to the role. And the physical aspect would be the very first thing people would be comparing. I say bring back the Barber sisters but then bring an AA male who is not a Winters man. The jumping between the Barbers and winters became scarily reminiscent of B&B after a while. I personally would love some dynamic Alpha male (a little like Ji Min Kim in personality) who, say, Olivia really likes but Dru despises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 I do think it's possible to recast Malcolm, but it would be very difficult. I loved Shemar as Malcolm. His chemistry with Stafford was AWESOME! Always LOVED Phyllis and Malcolm's friendship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 I would welcome a recast. I think it's necessary. Why isn't Malcolm in town trying to bond with Lily? It's long past time that story was told, there is so much conflict there waiting to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 I never really liked Malcolm becoming Lily's father... maybe that's why I don't want a recast so eagerly.. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cashton Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 They should re-cast in theory but it seems doomed to bomb from the begining. It's sort of like Vanessa Marcil on GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 I would accept a recast. But, I loved Shemar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 Hmm... maybe if I saw him without dreads, I would be able to tell... LOL weareclouds, you edited your post and now my post doesn't make sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 I would rather they just bring on a new character in a similar style as Malcolm. But a good recast, why not, Shemar ain't coming back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 Sorry. I was just shy about throwing out that idea. But, yeah. I'll say it for real this time. Tim Stickney would rock the hell out of the role of Malcolm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 Tim's too old. Way too old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Queen Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 I'd rather they bring in a new, sexy black Alpha male with no ties to the Winters. Still, if Liv returns and Nate as well, then recast Malcolm. Shemar was love but not irreplaceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Heyou Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 Shemar (which I love) has been gone from the canvas long enough that I think it'd be okay to recast at this point, as long as the recast can ACT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted September 8, 2008 Members Share Posted September 8, 2008 Malcom should have been recasted a long time ago, back during the Lily paternity reveal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
