Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 WTF?! So now Noah will be MIA again when all his family is front-burner, and Nick and Sharon continue to hog up airtime with their overdone drama? Word of advice to the IDIOTS at Y&R, Kevin Schmidt is NOT Vanessa Marcil where he's exceptionally too popular to recast. I hate the casting at Y&R as of late, but how hard could it be to find a charismatic young recast for this role? Noah doesn't need to be away for months and then pop up during the Summer for some lame Summer teen storyline or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 21, 2010 Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 I like Kevin Schmidt a lot and I don't want to see Noah turned into yet another Billy or Kevin or Ryder. If that means he doesn't get a lot of airtime, that's fine by me. This show guts every character they try to write for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 He's already misused and pops up after weeks of neglect simply as filler with Eden or to tell Sharon what a bad mother she is. Now he'll be gone for months, while his entire family is involved with front-burner stories? Seems very strange to me. I'm not a fan of Schmidt or SORASED-Noah, but the character is needed and it's a shame they haven't a clear idea of who he's supposed to be.

Members DRW50 Posted January 21, 2010 Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 He's misused, yes, but it's a more tolerable type of misuse than "Noah cheats on his girlfriend and this shows what a man he is," or, "Noah rapes a woman and she says no but means yes," or "Noah is stalked by a mysterious person he met at boarding school, who may be Matt Clark's long lost child," other wonderful stories. The Newmans are so hollow these days, even when they are on the front-burner, they bring nothing. You could replace today's Nikki, Nick, and Victoria with cardboard cutouts. If Noah isn't a part of that, fine by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 Yes, it's better he's neglected before any of that (and judging by this crappy writing team's vision, that's all very likely). I can just imagine, if he returns in the Summer, just how horrible the storyline will be an how strange it will look after months of not being on...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 He looks too old for the age of the role, and I find him very stilted. I've never thought he's connected that well with his co-stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeeeDee Posted January 21, 2010 Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 Schmidt's good but Noah's totally agenda driven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 22, 2010 Members Share Posted January 22, 2010 Yeah. He's not coming back. Not that I have insider info.; I don't. But I've a feeling this will be the end of Schmidt on Y&R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted January 22, 2010 Members Share Posted January 22, 2010 I'm fine with that. Y&R needs to find actors who want to stay in these roles for long periods of time. Not people who are looking for something better before they even start on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted January 25, 2010 Members Share Posted January 25, 2010 Please IIC don't read that part. She doesn't know of what she specks. & to you stop giving these writers ideas. I can see all these ideas happening all at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lmfan Posted January 26, 2010 Members Share Posted January 26, 2010 Maybe the show likes it this way. It isn't like he isn't the only young actor who is recurring. This way they can use them when they want and don't feel obligated to write them story. The actors playing Noah, Eden, Abby, and Ryder are all recurring. The only new younger character who is on contract is the actess who plays Daisy and guess who we see too much of? Yep, Daisy. So while it is to the show's benefit to hire new or younger actors as recurring, they have to work around their schedules and both actors who play Noah and Eden have recurring roles on nightime or other network shows. I suspect both young actors are off filming other roles once again hence this Paris storyline being written in all of a sudden. If the show wants to make Noah more central they will. If not, I suspect they will be happy to use Kevin Schmidt as recurring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
