Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 27, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 Well, the might as well bring back the craptastic last actress to play the role now, since the show won't be around in a new months anyway, but St. Alban was never good in that role, and certainly didn't grow as an actress during her time with the show.

Members detroitpiston Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 Ugh, I hated her Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 Why? OK, if GL is ending, and they want to have Michelle back with her family (I still don't know if Danny's going to be permanent or be killed off a la Joe Novak), fine, but I really wish they could have found a different actress. Her Michelle was so cold and smug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 27, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 It's pretty sad how miscast this core character has been since the great Rachel Miner left/was fired. As I said before, it's just tragic how no one ever brought so much emotional dept and maturity to the role that Rachel Miner brought, and she played the kid version of Michelle!

Members detroitpiston Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 I liked Bethany Joy Galeotti in the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllAboutAngst Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 Good God, they couldn't find someone, ANYONE else? Rebecca Budig? Someone? I mean, Michelle is an important character, I don't mind them bringing on a Bauer, but damn I hated her Michelle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 I really don't even think it would be that difficult to recast Michelle because, as mentioned, there's been no definitive Michelle since 1995. I thought Joie Lenz did some very strong work and she had huge star quality but I never saw her as Michelle. Budig and Alban, even less so.

Members Soapsuds Posted April 27, 2009 Members Share Posted April 27, 2009 Haha..this is laughable. Only at GL this would happen. Thank Gawd we wont have to put up with Alban's Michelle too long with the cancellation of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted April 28, 2009 Members Share Posted April 28, 2009 Man ***K this show. Seriously. UGH! And I agree, Y&RWorldTurner. Rachel Miner rocked as Michelle. Probably the best one they ever had. I remember being really little and hoping she and Bryan Buffington would grow up on the show together and that their characters would end up falling in love. Since GL is half script and half breakdown, let's hope St. Alban has learned the art of subtlety since she's been away. No more "Night You Did Me In The Rear" whisper moments, PLEASE!

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 28, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 28, 2009 Michelle and Bill really should've ended up together. Rachel Miner looked SO MUCH like Peter Simon, that was brilliant casting by the great Betty Rea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dan Posted April 28, 2009 Members Share Posted April 28, 2009 I would be more enthusiastic if Danny was, shall we say, dead and Michelle was coming back alone (where she could then take Bill from that twit Lizzie). But now I'm just meh. It does make sense to choose St. Alban, the last actress to play her, instead of a recast considering how long the show has. I was just hoping her return wouldn't make the Mannyacs happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kwing42 Posted April 28, 2009 Members Share Posted April 28, 2009 Obviously the correct thing to do in light of what is going on. Good job GL...too bad all the right moves are being made at the end of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
