But he is more physically suited to the role than this new guy. Seriously, I don't know what TPTB are smoking right now. There are a million actors better suited to Malcolm purely on the looks front alone. Even that Marcus Patrick guy who is now more well known for his stripping than his acting is a closer match to Shemar.

Wait wait wait, this guy is supposed to be Lily Winters' biological father, right? The only reason I believed Khalil as Dru's daughter is because her father was more light skinned. This guy does not fit the bill at all.

Obviously I'll give him a chance and see how he does, but it does seem like they are shooting themselves in the foot by recasting Malcolm. What if Shemar ever decides he wants to pull a James Franco and drop into Y&R for a few months? Are we going to get a 'The Real Malcom Returns' promo? Soaps are stupid for recasting roles played by actors who have gone on to bigger things. It means they can never take advantage of a 'big return' and we're stuck with Claudia Zacchara all over again. Imagine if GH had recast Luke and Laura?

Next thing they'll be casting Drucilla with Wendy Raquel Robinson.

Anyone remember Pussycat Dolls present Girlicious? That contestant Charlye (who narrowly missed out on the band mainly because she was a bitch) tweets a lot about watching Y&R and tweeted this earlier:

Shemar was so recognizable in the role, and recasting prominent black roles like this is incredibly foolish on Y&R's part.

They going to recast Dru with Jennifer Beale. Watch & See!

Remember that black guy that use to be on Days. & people though he was going ot turn up as Julian & Eva child. I believe the character name was Tuck. He have to be the same age as DM.

Look at a brighter note at least they didn't take somebody else suggestion & hire that guy who played recast Chad from Passions. Remember yrfan talking about hiring the recast Chad as recast Malcolm.

I don't think he's wrong, lookswise. Yes he's dark skinned, but he has the same sex appeal and charisma that Shemar brought to the role. It's really no different than replacing a blonde actress with a redhead or brunette, IMO. So odd that Lily's father will now be younger than her husband. I really don't understand how this will work. How will he look next to Tonya Lee Williams? Malcolm/Olivia was probably his most remembered romantic pairing...how can you discount that? The whole reason Nate views him as a father is because of how deep his relationship with Olivia was. This is just very strange.

How is he too young for the role? If I remember right Cady McClain was only ten years older than Jacob Young and as we know she played his mom.

I'll give him a chance to prove himself. I guess some would just rather write him off before he gets the chance to prove if he truly is right or wrong for the role

    • Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      Me when someone asks me to be proper and demure. 
    • This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.  
    • Just thinking how the Ruth/Leticia guest spot really cemented how Days had changed. Stunt casting with a campy/comedy character in a 'wacky' storyline was something that a few years previously would have been completely out of place on Days (and most other soaps for that matter).
    • I am interested to see how they handle Leslie/Dana down the road. If she continues in this path, it would be unrealistic to have her around. Like other shows have done this with a 'villian' character and ended up with people looking stupid putting up with someone they detest. Another thought-could they be building up to a murder story? Maybe Les/Dan will be left in a coma and we will have a whodunit with several characters as suspect. It would also be a chance to redeem her I wonder how long the show will go w/o resorting to soap cliche stories-twins,switched at birth, murder mystery, long lost child etc
    • Yeah, Martin really did make me laugh when him and Smitty jumped up to drag Leslie out. I am interested in seeing how this fallout will impact his storyline as well. Especially since he is so protective regarding his family/family's image. I am interested in seeing how he will interact with Eva for the time being, they did have a warmer interaction earlier on once they met. But he seems to have doubts about her possibly being Ted's right now. I wonder how long it might take for him to come around with her. I could see the younger generation warming up to her quicker than the older ones. Though of course I think there will be anger/tension for a while regarding the reveal and her role in it. Perhaps Naomi/Chelsea will ease up on Eva first then eventually Martin/Kat might down the line. I really do love Nicole. I'm glad that DD is playing her. She really is the heart of the family and also agree the show. She is so easy to root for and I'm looking forward to seeing how things work out for her. I am enjoying the development of most of the characters on this show. I enjoy most of them including Bill with his trifling self lol. I do feel that Bill's love for his daughters is genuine and that gives him some depth. A few of the characters I don't care for that much (like Bill, Ashley, Vanessa). I wasn't too big on Andre at first, but I am warming up more to him as the actor is settling into the role. I like most of the characters on this show. Also, I am interested in seeing what happens if Eva indeed goes and lives with the new doctor that was introduced. I could see this adding another layer to her story, maybe she will become more vixen-ish, on what type of relationship they end up having. And/or maybe she will end up becoming more hardened as she deals with being an outcast, especially if she falls out with Leslie as well. I think that AM will do a good job of showcasing the different layers of this character as she deals with the fallout of the affair/paternity reveal.

      Got another sad news from the Bahamian community (not a celebrity)  https://www.instagram.com/p/DJMSrYCgyes/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Former Bahamian Senate President J Henry Bostwick, Husband of former 1st Bahamian Female Cabinet Minister Dame Janet Bostwick is dead yesterday on his 86th birthday.    Thanks and for those who've aren't familiar with the talk shows in The Bahamas on this thread here, his talk show named The Freedom March with Dr Rodney Moncur that airs on ILTV and The Beat 103.5 FM Nassau every weekday afternoons. IIRC, he suffered a illness before he died.  Here's the link for his final taping of the show before his death: https://ewnews.com/this-is-powerful-rodney-moncurs-final-sign-off/
    • (video, sound up) https://www.instagram.com/p/DIopBYDOGwy/ April 19, 2025 theonlydaphneeduplaix I’m not a fan of running. I’m not a fan of biking. So instead, I do what I love to get me revved up!!! . What that 20 minute warm up always looks like for me. What do you love that gets your body moving? LET’S GO!!!!!!! #DanceItOut #NoExcuses #FitOverFourty #TakeYourBodyBack #FindWhatGetsYouMoving     .           .
    • One thing I thought about is if Hayley will have a reaction to Bill threatening to kidnap and sell a baby. That's another level of viciousness and with her just having thought she was pregnant it might make her feel some type of way.
