Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 29, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 29, 2009 I think I would quit Y&R forever if someone like Deidre Hall played Jill. The last thing Jill needs to be played by an actress who does nothing but huff and puff with her long orgasmic-like sounds. Also, no blondes!

Members SteveFrame Posted March 30, 2009 Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 She was also a temporary recast for her sister Felice Camargo on Woman with a Past in 1954 where she played Constance Ford's daughter. Later Felice returned the favor and temporarily filled in for her when she was sick on Guiding Light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 30, 2009 Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 I've seen some old Rachel clips where VW was downright scary. Scarier than I could ever imagine RS being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 Her eyes have a tendency of popping out of their sockets. But that was perfect for when she was playing Justine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted March 30, 2009 Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 Agreed.... Deidre Hall would just be an epic fail..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted March 30, 2009 Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 I think that if this was a short-term replacement (i.e. a couple of weeks) they could pull any age-appropriate actress off the street and limit Jill's airtime til Jess returns. However, sadly this looks to be long term (i.e. at least a couple of months, depending on how her health/contract negotiations go), so they really need to be careful whom they cast. That's why I keep advocating Christine Jones. She's got Jess's stature, and she can play elegant and vulnerable with a hint of trash and ferocity. That's the kind of role she played on Rituals. She's just a really good, versatile actress. Plus, unlike a Linda Dano, she doesn't have this overpowering over-the-top persona that would overshadow the material. With Dano in the role, all you'd see is Linda Dano, not Jill, if that makes sense. As for Wyndham, I just don't see her having chemistry with Jeanne or any of the actors she would interact with. There's a WASPy iciness about Wyndham that would not serve the character of Jill well. This should be really interesting. Whatever the case, I hope Jess is back in the role ASAP.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 Well, since her daughter is now on the show, Cybill Shepherd for temp-Jill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted March 30, 2009 Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 /\ YES! Cybill Shepherd for tempJill. Darken her hair, put her in sexy outfits and let that whorehair down, sister! I was thinking the same thing last night. Not that she would EVER do it, but what about Faye Dunaway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rhiannon Posted March 30, 2009 Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 What about the " natural raven-haired" thing though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Adam Posted March 30, 2009 Members Share Posted March 30, 2009 Oh these poor tight-faced ladies.... I am down with Katey Sagal idea if only she wasn't already tied down to a show. She would fit Jill perfectly I think. I bet it will be someone we totally wouldn't suspect..... I hope we get some more news tomorrow!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
