ATWT- BRING BACK MARK COLLIER!!

[Dr Neil Curtis]

What happen to NuMike? Is he not on anymore? I remember seeing his debut and thought she should be playing Adam Hughes or somebody along those lines.

[Mitch]

Oh hella, Mike and Brian together, having a love scene (with of course, Mike shirtless) I would turn into a middle aged fanboy ala Nuke fans!

I agree that Collier should come back..but would rather see him on GL...maybe a long lost Bauer or Reardon. Not too often an I a fan of the typical "soap hunk," but I think Collier was different. He is one of those outrageously good looking guys who doesnt "act," like he is hot. Its also refreshing to see a soap hunk who is masculine and rugged instead of being "soap pretty." Okay, I have crossed the line into fan boy!!!

I know that his acting is not the greatest, but he has a charm and is certainly better then most of the hunks I see take their shirts off (for god's sake Balloon Boobs Jesse Metcalf had bit parts in primetime and movies...)

[P.J.]

They wrote him off in October, I think. After his first month (April) when he was up in Paul's grill over Meg, and the "funny" return for Katie's wedding to Brad, they didn't use him much. He banged Lily after the news of Holden's affair with Carly came out. After Ethan dropped into that hole, Lilden reunited and Mike left town.

YAYYY! Your seal of approval means so much DeeeDee. Loves it!

Please, please, please don't let Collier get placed at GL. No way. I won't stand for it. I hate that show, and besides, ATWT needs him more. And I LOVE your use of the word charm. That smile of his was infectious. Nobody smiles like Mark Collier.

He's a wooden actor, and without family in town, his character is not needed. There's no need to bring him back.

[juniorz1]

I disagree about him being wooden. I find Grayson McCouch & Roger Howarth to be far more wooden than Collier. I actually was surprised at how often his performances impressed me.

[jfung79]

Oh, true, if it was a choice between Mike and Grayson McCouch's Dusty, I'd have Mike Kasnoff back in a second. Then put Mike with Carly so Carly can be away from Craig.

[juniorz1]

Ok, we'll take that! I just have this feeling that the return of Mark's Mike would give ATWT the kind of jolt that Vanessa Marcil's return to GH once did. Like him or not, the man has energy and is magnetic.

[Soapsuds]

LOL...You and me both.

There are a lot of other wooden actors on the show.

Now that's a bit too much.

[juniorz1]

I'm dead serious. Mark's return as Mike could energize the entire canvas.

[P.J.]

I admire your enthusiasm for the man. I truly do. But I don't really see how Mike's return could affect the entire canvas. TPTB made it painfully clear they've no interest in Mike's history with Carly or Rosanna (yeah, I know, she's not even there..). I concede that Matie had a following, but TIIC never knew what to do with them, and honestly, I'm completely SICK of Katie's ping-ponging love life. And he was Lily's boy-toy for all of five seconds.

He has no kids, and no real solid ties around town. I'm not seeing where the impact would be. But honestly, I've kind of wracked my brain every time a "who should come back" topic pops up on the board, and I'm always stumped for ATWT.

[Actor87]

I've ALWAYS been a fan of Mark. Let's get this campaign started!

[juniorz1]

That's the spirit Dusty!

[Mitch]

Hmm, maybe he would be better used on Desperate Housewives...he looks a lot like a younger, beefy version of the Mike actor..he could be Mike's younger brother.

Though I would be more pleased if he was brought on as Mike's lover...and we have many, many, shirtless love scenes of them rolling around and rolling around....okay, that aint gonna happen but it was nice typing it and imagine that doufus' Susan's face when she gets a load of that!!1

[Babygurl]

Count me in! I would welcome him back to this show with open arms!
