Members MarkH Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 Source I wondered why he was recurring...no contract. I guess this highly talented actor wanted to be open to pursue other opportunities. Here is hoping (sorry to be mean spirited) the new sitcom is cancelled after 3 episodes. Unlikely... TBS usually sticks with their shows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 When he did some video footage in the changing room (posted on YouTube) he said that it's only something he's trying out or something. I knew he probably wouldn't stick for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DrewH Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 I don't really like him as Noah so hopefully they get a better actor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted October 1, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 I noticed that too. Except, silly me, I assumed it was because the SHOW was not interested "long term". Not the ACTOR. Oh, I was prepared to hate him, since I really liked Hunter Allen. But Schmidt won me over instantly with a portrayal that seemed natural and authentic. Also, for a 20-year old, I found he played 16 very convincingly. Also, I have quickly found myself joining the "Eden-hate" on this board, so by comparison, he seemed like an award winner. He has much more naturalness than his "father" (Joshua Morrow) did at that age. I think he'll do fine on a sitcom. As a recurring actor on a cable show (i.e., not network), maybe he will continue to "pop in" to Y&R when his schedule allows. But, sadly, that won't move this important next-generation character to the front burner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 That seems to be what Y&R and the other CBS soaps do with younger actors these days. The awful Erin Sanders (Eden) is also on recurring. Hopefully, she gets recast as well, if Schmidt's pilot gets picked up. I assume Y&R could work around his production schedule there, since cable seasons are short and Y&R doesn't use him that much. That's only if his contract with TBS permits though.

Members MarkH Posted October 1, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 Ah...you think it is a pilot? I figured it was greenlit. If there is a pilot, it might not go! Then Y&R could lock Schmidt up in a contract (it will cost them more now). Yes, I think the show SHOULD have an Eden...but she must be recast. I'd keep the current actress on the canvas, play her lightly, and TAKE THEIR TIME to find the PERFECT actress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members baller Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 But we don't know if he's out? There's been no annoucement from CBS, Y&R? I only ask because reading that made me think one, that it's not even been picked up. I also think that given it's recurring and the positive response about Kevin, they'd work around the schedule.

Members Becki Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 I agree. I think he's been wonderful and believe me I was all ready to hate him when he first came on. I think he's a good fit as Noah and I hope they do choose to work around his schedule if the VB thing gets picked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jcar03 Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 Just because he landed a role on this show doesn't neccessarily mean he is out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marla0518 Posted October 1, 2008 Members Share Posted October 1, 2008 maybe Noah and his mother can move away from Genoa City ...... one can dream can't one!!! Fall in Paris...ain't it grand!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tishy Posted October 2, 2008 Members Share Posted October 2, 2008 I don't neccassarily think this means he is out. He could do both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted October 2, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 2, 2008 I think you are all right, and this is technically possible. I am thinking it is unlikely...but what do I know? I hope I am wrong, I'd like to get to know this Noah better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted October 2, 2008 Members Share Posted October 2, 2008 I like him as Noah. So I wouldn't want him to go. Hopefully, he can do both. Noah isn't necessary right now with a leading storyline, so he can do both! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted October 3, 2008 Members Share Posted October 3, 2008 I would like to have the previous Noah back... NuNoah didn't do anything for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted October 13, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 13, 2008 Sadly, according to this source, we're heading down recast alley. I thought Schmidt was great, and now we're open to all kinds of possible dreck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
