Members Sapounopera Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 BTW the disappointed person seems to be a friend of NB, who has been very vocal in Nelson's FB profile eversince the news about Chris Engen came out. Remember that he might be Adam to us, but the guy lost his job today for reasons that are not clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted May 21, 2009 Administrator Share Posted May 21, 2009 Damn, this sucks! CE was awesome in the role of Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrenchFan Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Yes he was, my favorite new actor in soaps in 2008. Sad to see him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 And that is why I am sad. Many of us enjoyed his portrayal. And now...for whatever reason...he's gone. That's a loss for Engen (employment), but also a loss to the viewers who appreciated what he was doing. I hope there were some inaccuracies in that story, and that Engen plays another day somewhere else. I also hope nu-Adam works out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Chris Engen is Adam. It will be difficult to see someone else in the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Absolutely! I refuse to watch Muhney in that role. I can't imagine Engen and probably will never be able to accept this recast. It sucks, big time. A very huge disappointment for me as a Y&R viewer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapydoc Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 I going to assume that CE and Clemintine Ford won't be doing lunch anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Really? Really? You'll quit or you'll FF all his scenes? Really? I'd never have the discipline to do that. A straight dude is allowed to love lesbians, remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 It will be jarring to see a NuAdam, but given the direction that the story seems to be heading, I would not have been enjoying the story anyway so it does not matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 I'm in a state of shock at the moment. And probably denial. It hasn't really got into my head that I won't watch Engen in the role. I absolutely loved the character of Adam, even though he is going through this dark stuff; but I can't imagine watching someone else in the role. It's surprising how someone can make the role their own in a year. Plus, it's hard to admit, but this show just might be going to pot. I hope I'm wrong.

Members MichaelGL Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 I'm sure going to miss Chris's body that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Engen is a decent actor, but he's not irreplaceable. This recast could work at well. As for Engen walking out, a lot of actors have comfort zones and obviously the kiss was outside of Engen's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted May 21, 2009 Members Share Posted May 21, 2009 Let's hope Sony is reasonable about this. I realized that being too tough with Engen could be a publicity nightmare for Sony. Just like Miss California got LOADS of supporters...Engen could play that card. Since they have a recast, Sony should just let him go. Maybe make him pay any "emergency recast/reshoot" costs, and maybe make him sign a non-compete clause where he can't join another daytime show for the next three years (duration of his contract). That would be reasonable. We'll never know these details I hope it works out for Engen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
