Y&R: More Bad Mis-Recasting, Marcy Rylan IN as NuAbby

[Sylph]

LOVE your avatar, Jack.

Your BEST ever.

I believe they said they aren't aging any of the other teens.

CUT TO: Next week, when Scott Evans, fresh from his "groundbreaking" OLTL stint as gay cop Oliver Fish, is announced as the new Noah Newman.

[DeeeDee]

NEW DIRECTION! NEW DIRECTION! NEW DIRECTION!

[DRW50]

A few weeks later Nelson will tell us what a horrible actor he is and how he's killed the amazing story Y&R had planned for Noah.

[Khan]

"Amazing," my a$$. There's nothing amazing about three people discovering they have doppelgangers in less than a year. ;-)

[DRW50]

You mean you didn't hear that the Phillip story was going to be fabulous and it was only Thom Bierdz and his weak acting which ruined it? Cause we sure don't have a lot of bad acting on Y&R...

[JackPeyton]

HA, thank you. Was that about my current one or my former one?

[Cheap21]

good lord, this makes it even dumber. Abby is in high school with these kids and a few weeks later, she's in her 20s? Makes NO sense but then again Y&R hasnt in a while

[DRW50]

Well, as MAB says, she can't write for teens because they aren't "sophisticated" (and isn't Y&R so darn swanky at the moment). So perhaps in a year or so, Beth Ehlers and Mark Derwin will be the new Noah and Eden.

[DeeeDee]

Noah with Rogaine?

[Cheap21]

The role of Daisy will now be played by Cady McClain

[DeeeDee]

:lol: :lol:

[Khan]

Frankly, I knew we'd fitch a pit when it came out how he still could be alive. You can't ask viewers to suspend that much disbelief.

Meanwhile, teens have never been what you'd call "sophisticated," yet b/c, he had a niece who was the same age as many of his younger characters, Doug Marland wrote for them beautifully. Just sayin'.

Did you see that March 30 SOD cover of Marcy and Eden? Poor Marcy -- I guess they just took some random shot of her from the street but she looked awful. Whether it was a bad shot or airbrushing gone wild, she looked like an alien, or like those Joan Van Ark silver faced photos from a few years ago. I can't imagine that cover selling a lot of copies.
