Members DeeeDee Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 How so? Where in her comments did she say Darius was a bad actor or should be fired? She only said the same things most fans have & continue to say about Darius while praising him as an actor. A "real acting gig" that has him on the 1st & 15th fixing meals for white people.

Members marceline Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 LMAO! Point taken but he said no one wants a ticking time bomb, not that no one has one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Because it's true. There is imperfect & there is ridiculous. She WAS completely supportive of Darius but even if she wasn't why is what she said any less valid? It's not like TPTB are or were going to use Malcolm as a Lane prop anyway.

Members Sylph Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 And when you look at that list... It looks as if they can handle a white person (Eva LaRue being Puerto Rican, of course), but an African American seems to be a no-no. Awfully suspicious. Daytime is a sad tale diversity-wise.

Members DeeeDee Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 B&B took back Hunter, AMC took back Eva, OLTL took back Robin, Y&R took back Eric Braeden Cady bounces between AMC & ATWT, GH would take Vanessa back in a heartbeat, Roscoe Born's been on every soap that ever was & the less said about Bernard/Burton the better. Even actresses like Nancy Grahn & Hilary Smith have said/done worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 And don't get me started on Stafford (or was it the Bavarian milkmaid?) spitting on her or whatever that was!!! And giving her clothes other actresses didn't want to wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 The thing is Darius IS a solid actor but casting him as Malcolm was never going to work. It's as bad as Shari as Ashley & Sarah as Victoria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Hey, don't get me wrong, I agree with you. I think Y&R should suck it up and bring her back. She's hardly the first actor to have her "When Keeping it Real Goes Wrong" moments and I think that what she brings to the table far outweighs whatever drama comes with her.

Members MoTheGreat Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Or once Black History Month is over. We all know why Neil & Ashley was rush. So the black viewers can see somebody black on Black History Month. Well Neil you have a couple of more days left before Ashley dumps you for her White Knight. & you go back to being backburn in Backburn city.

Members Sapounopera Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 VR realizes that at this point TPTB might also consider recasting the part of Dru. That's probably the reason she talked about the Malcom thing like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Recasting Dru would be a mistake wrapped in a trainwreck stuffed inside a clusterf*ck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
