Members bellcurve Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 Oh wait, Ann! You did NOT just diss... NEWCOMER DOMINIC ZAMPROGNA! did you?! In fairness, he wouldn't be my first pick, but I don't think he's fug. Neither is Drew. Now Bradford Anderson and Nathan Parsons, hell yes.

Members quartermainefan Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 I don't find the GH newbies ugly. They are different than the newcomers of the type you find on OLTL playing Ford or playing Scott on AMC, but I find something very charming and sexy about Nathan Parsons with his physical grace and his lack of soap opera hair and all that. He is never going to be confused with Greg Vaughan or the guy who plays Brody on OLTL, but I find him far more sexy than say the kid who plays Will on DOOL. (and I have no idea how old that guy is, just saying he seems sexless) DZ has a good body I guess, and he is sort of handsome too, but he is also different. Scott Reeves is ridiculously handsome I think, always was, and it is like he could have starred in movies of the 1950s with his unrealistic Hollywood look. I am gonna miss Drew Garret because I thought he was good. He also had great eyes I think. His face seems more interesting than the new guy, anyway.

Members shadow Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 I liked DG, thought he was great as Michael. Michael is supposed to be crazy and have mad issues, is parents are Carly and AJ, and he was raised by Sonny and Jason. I just Youtubed CD, and he is a good looking dude I hope he can act. There is a funny Youtube Vid with him and this guy who hand farts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 They should have him compose a new theme for GH. It can't get any worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 +1 Drew Garrett was really great, and he and Sarah Brown singlehandedly saved that horrible Michael kills Claudia plot point towards the end. Everyone had seemingly given up, but Drew really stepped up and proved himself during that time. Not to mention, the boy could cry on cue, and it never felt fake to me! I thought he was a true find. Like bellcurve said, I hope he gets that Daytime Emmy in a few months, because out of all the younger actors on daytime last year (though there weren't many), he more than proved his talent.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 I have to give it to him, he did have mad chemistry with Sarah Joy Brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CSF Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 IMO, the nuMichael definitely looks like he could be the son of Sean Kanan's AJ, Jason's hot brother lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 Shocked that GH fired Drew Garrett, since he was obviously a GH golden boy, due to his all of his airtime. Garrett must've really done something bad. Duell, the new Michael looks like a good re-cast to me. We'll see on 4-20. Hopefully GH will put in Duell's pic on that date, and add Scott Reeves(Steven)and Brianna Brown(Lisa). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members miche Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 GH should have just kill Michael and all the character associate with the mob including Jason boyfriend Lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 I just wonder why they wanted to recast this part. Garrett wasn't a bad actor, he had a fan following, and he's carried storyline for a year already. I'm guessing Guza totally wants to reinvent the character or something. Sucks because Garrett was such a solid younger actor. Though, if Guza's recent history is any indication, this reinvention shouldn't be anything to look forward to.

Members Vee Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 Huge mistake. He was one of their most talented finds in years. If I'm DAYS OF OUR LIVES I grab Garrett, cast him as a gay, villainous Will and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 DAYS would probably never go the gay route, but I can definitely see Garret playing Sami's son should they want to make him into a male equivalent of what Sami was in her teens. Hell, he'd even be good for the current incarnation of the character. Hopefully, Drew Garrett can land another role soon. Though, I'm afraid he won't, since he has such a unconventional "look" and isn't the typical soap or primetime heartthrob. He has a very realistic look, which went well with his acting. This recast just makes no sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 I think Michael was exactly what Guza wanted. I wonder if this was an intervention from on high. I don't buy that Guza wanted any Quartermaines brought in, or any black people. If Frons wanted some of that, then he may want a less edgy Michael, and this was his way of making that happen.

Members Cat Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 Garrett looked like a mini Steve Burton. I doubt Guza would have wanted to get rid of his man-crush's mini-me. I don't think Guza wants to reinvent anything. Michael has always bee seen as the "troubled child" ever since the days of the Damian lookalike -- partly because of the way Sonny and Carly raised him and partly because he is the spawn of "evil seed" AJ. And Drew Garrett played him perfectly the way Guza wanted. Everything about him was spot on, including the physicality. In fact, I'll give it to Mark Teschner and GH: ALL the kids (Kristina, Michael, Morgan and Molly) have been stellar castings. Something must have happened behind the scenes. This strikes me as an eleventh-hour recast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
