Of course Heather Tom is the dream Victoria, with GT a close second. I just thought AM would do better than AH.

MCE is so good at doing all shades of Annie on AMC, I am sure she should handle a depressed Mackenzie.

Tamara Braun would make a really good Heather I think.

And if Joshua Morrow ever left Y&R, Cam Matheson has got the deer in the headlights thing down.

Well, if even you have issues with JM...I guess I'm gonna have to take the blinders off.

Don't you think Tamara Brown is way too old to be Paul's daughter?

And yes AM would do a better job than AH. But Cameron Mathison would do a better job as Victoria than AH :).

As a matter of fact only one of them was Fallon :lol:

I read somewhere that Aaron Spelling hired Emma Samms because his wife (or his daughter?) had seen her on General Hospital and thought that she would make a great Fallon. I still believe that there was a mix up and the person who suggested the actress didn't mean ES, but Sherilyn Wolter who was playing Celia at the time.

You obviously don't follow the credits. :)

The previous casting director, Karen Rea, who I HATED, casted all those AMC alums and she cast Eva Marcille too.

The new casting director is Camille St. Cyr, who started in like October, and her new Casting Associate, Matt Kane, started like two weeks ago. The casting, especially the dayplayer parts have gotten really good since Camille got in there, I think she's quite good, and definitely a step above Rea. Though, outside of Vincent Irizarry, the AMC alums (Hendrickson and Miller) have been succeses on Y&R.

I really wish the writers would keep Raul-him and Mac is SOOO where it's at. It's good to see CF does have chemistry with him too--and it looks like CF is the only person not to have chemistry with Billy M, which is ok, I'm tired of Mac and Billy redux, it's not worked since the start.

Ok, thanks!

Do you know how long? The last published appearance for him I saw, I guess, was through May 27.

Oh, if he stays...this poor overstuffed canvas. I'm actually warming to your idea of putting a bunch of people in one location and blowing them up. We'd probably put different people in that room, but the intent would be similar.

Nick thinks with his dick but he's not a dick, not intentionally anyway like Ryan. Ryan is an egotistical, aggressive, woman-hating SOB. He's disgusting and CM is a horrible, horrible actor, I can't recall him ever acting anything well, JM has had quite a few good scenes and storylines. Not true for Ryan or CM who's had awful story after awful story for like almost 10 years now.

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
