OLTL: Since CE is out of that other soap [spoiler]

Nobody belongs in the unemployment lines.

Last time I checked it was our time to waste speculating about other roles for Engen so why do any of you care what we say or post?

[tanyia2]

Chris engen will not work in daytime again. The legal ramifications alone will kill his career in daytime so it is futile to even think that another soap will hire him.

[Vanguardian]

But CE does!!!!

[Vanguardian]

You're right! Speculate away! Just like some of us will speculate that he will not work on any other show. It doesn't bother me that some of you post that he'd be perfect for a new soap role.

[kandbar]

IDA... Maybe playing the role as the face behind the mask of "Burger King" on the Burger King commercials, but not the unemployment line. No one deserves to be without a job.

[Vanguardian]

Burger King???? O.K. I'll lighten up a bit and say that he should get a job there.

[dawn9476]

Um, no. If the reason why he left because he wouldn't do something that was written in the script, he doesn't deserve to get ANY kind of acting job.

[kandbar]

Excellent!

I give up.

I have a lawn that can use some grooming.

I like(d), Chris Engen, but since he walked out of the role, I don't see the point of even speculating another role for him to walk out of. Plus, if he disliked Y&R so much, does he think the writing on ABC soaps is going to be any better? I say give another fresh face actor a chance, Engen had his chance, so now let's move along...

I doubt CE is going to be working anywhere for a while, which is too bad because I think he's very talented. I'll grant that under different circumstances, he would have made a great Joey. Oh well.

As for Joey & Kevin, how about Jeff Branson as Joey and Daniel Cosgrove as Kevin with Gina Tognoni returning as Kelly? (Though I would always be happy to see Dan Gauthier return as Kevin). I don't know if Blake Berris wants to return to soaps but he would also make a fun quirky Joey.

[Vee]

Uh, Chris Engen play gay-friendly soap pioneer Joey? No. He'd quit as soon as someone said two words: "Billy Douglas."

[Bright Eyes]

All those casting suggestions work for me, except Berris. He's WAY too young for Joey

[cara mia]

Maybe Berris could be CJ, Sarah's brother? How old are Joey and CJ supposed to be anyway?

[MTSRocks]

LoL, that too.
