I get what you're saying, and I know you don't like the character of Kelly (hell I don't know if I do either, I'm more watching for GT), but I refuse to root for Kelly/Cutter over Kelly/Joey. I think Joey has potential, no TD isn't the most exciting, but his character is not a sleazebag, a self-righteous brooder who appears to be sleeping in most scenes, a zoolander impersonator, or a rapist, therefore he needs to stay and I'm hoping that he gets some halfway decent writing.

I totally agree - I don't have any interest in Kelly/Cutter or in Cutter. I resent everything that this type of casting ("edgy" looks means you must be a manwhore with no ties to the canvas and little of interest to say or do) stands for, and while Josh Kelly may be a great actor for all I know, I just can't ever accept this character, because his brethren (Rex/Todd/John/Ford) have already done enough damage to the show.

I don't think Joey has much of a chance, but I hope I'm wrong.

I loved Gina on GL. I've always had issues with her as Kelly - actually how I feel about her now (apathy/sometimes like) is much kinder than I felt during her first run as Kelly. But the relationship stuff just doesn't work at all.

Bwahahahaha! :lol:

Actually, he was MUCH better than I expected on ATWT. Good thing, too, considering that on Days he made Ronn Moss look like Colin Firth.

He'll never win a prize for his acting but he "worked" as a young male romatic leading man. He's way more at ease in front of the camera than those Ford people, that's for sure. And all things considered, I'd rather watch him than Michael Easton or JPL.

    • Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season. Is it just me or is the vault down? It's like a different error message this time so it's hard to know if it's me this time.
    • thank you for uploading the rest of season 12!!! I hope i can get them soon the links down! Thank you again for posting the B&B classic episodes to revisit!!!!
    • Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that
    • Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

          Betsy Snyder, when she was at DAYS was part of the WGA winning writing team before she died, tragically far too young.  
    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
    • You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.
    • You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
