SoapDigest Austin Williams (Shane, OLTL) taken off contract, but will remain in a recurring capacity: http://soapoperadigest.com/news/breaking

This makes sense. There is no need for an 11-year old boy to be on contract.

Wonderful!

He was barely on anyway.

Actually he's 13....will be 14 in November.

Send Shane to Texas with Moe and Noelle. Gigi and Rex aren't believable as parents, IMHO, and I am tired of that child being used as a pawn by Rex.

If this were Y&R, Shane would go away to camp, then come back in the fall played by a former ABC soap hunk.

Camp in Australia.

Gigi (to Rex): Wow, Shane's really grown since he went away to camp!

Rex: You find him hot, don't you?

Gigi: What? No! Are you kidding?

Rex: Admit it! You want to sleep with your own son!

Gigi: OMG, Rex, what are you saying?!

Rex: I can't handle this, Gigi, it's over!

And...scene.

I know I shouldn't say this about a kid, but thank God. Everytime I'd see him, I'd cringe.

Fuckin hot!! Wub!!

There was no good reason to have him on contract. And one of these days he's going to be taller than both his parents and that'll look ridiculous. Yeah, I can't stand Shane.

Wow, where IS this Shane hate coming from? It's one thing to hate his parents, but the kid's a good character played by a good actor. But a supporting, recurring character he is, not a contract one.

That is hilarious and so OLTL, Shane comes back older than his own parents and sounding like Carmen Duncan's Iris to boot!

Let's just go all the way and recast Shane with Carmen Duncan. OLTL needs her. If Bo can be David's father via time travel sex, anything is possible.

Now if they would only put Rex and Gigi on recurring too...
