Members Astrotruf Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 From a daytime soap to a primetime one -- "All My Children" hunk Colin Egglesfield is the latest actor to check into CW's "Melrose Place." On the CBS Par-produced ensemble drama, Egglesfield will play one of the leads, Melrose Place's resident Auggie. An avid surfer, Auggie works as a sous-chef at a hot restaurant while dreaming of one day working for himself. http://spoilertv.blogspot.com/2009/03/melr...ield-joins.html I really like Colin, but have no interest in this show.

Members DRW50 Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 Auggie? Really? I just hope they put him in some tight underwear, because that alone will be more entertaining than most of 90210. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nell17 Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'm happy for him. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 Oh, that is brill, one more reason to check the spin-off out! The name they gave him is horrible, but who cares, it's all about his body! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members skiman12082004 Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 This is great news. I can't wait to see him on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 Well, at least he's not playing an unaborted fetus. I'm glad he found work. He was in a lose-lose situation at AMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 Ew. Word to the "Auggie" hate. If his full name is August, they should call him that...because August is a sexxxy name. But I'm glad my boy got a primetime gig! And to think, people scoffed when the idea of him doing primetime would come up. It may be the CW, but it's still primetime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 He's handsome, he's charismatic, and his acting improved leaps and bounds when he was at AMC. As long as he still keeps that charisma, then he's a perfect fit for Melrose. I really hope he has a hit because I'm still kind of sad about the way AMC wrote him out.

Members detroitpiston Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'm sure Colin will do great. So far I've liked everyone they've cast except Ashlee Simpson(though she wasn't all that bad on CSI NY). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 Typical. As always soaps keep the people who would not get arrested anywhere else (Minshew for one) and let the people with potential go. The fans were so hard on this guy, with the whole abortion rap, they never gave him a chance. His looks alone made him a keeper for soaps, but instead they cling to hacks like Thorsten Kaye and Michael Easton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tina m Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 Auggie is a terrible name but I'm so happy for Colin. Always liked him on AMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vanguardian Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'm betting that his full name is actually Augustine. I also get the feeling that he'll be playing the part of the pretty-faced bad boy/son-of-a-bitch on wheels who's employed at a hot restaurant. I always felt Colin had the look of a schemer (which Josh definitely was) during his run on AMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 24, 2009 Members Share Posted March 24, 2009 Good for him, but nothing about this Melrose remake sounds interesting. I bet it's going to be as dull as the craptastic 90210 remake, which has yet to find its groove, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
