Members Cheap21 Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 Overall Im not impressed with those choices at all. I dont want Tina recast. Just bring back Andrea Evans or Karen Witter But going back to your choices; the only ones I can see working are Cynthia Preston or Rebecca Staab. Big hell no to all the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 Same Cheap...I've always thought Cynthia Preston would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Chris B Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 Honestly, they had Andrea Evans. She wants to act. The fact that she's on B&B is because they're not interested in writing the character. It was clear by the way they wrote Tina and the fact that they didn't recast Sarah.

Members SFK Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 Would somebody else like to do the honors? I kid, Karen was good. There are a lot of names on that list I'm not familiar with, but I say nay to practically all of the names that I do recognize. Barbara Crampton stuck out the most for me though for the simple fact that I imagine her playing Tina just like Krista Tesreau did, only more wide-eyed. I agree with Chris and the others, I'd rather see them do it right with Andrea than bring in someone else. If she was still with us and went blonde for the role, Roya Megnot would have made for a good Tina. Similarly, a blonde Lisa Peluso is giving me that same Barbara Crampton vibe (those two look like good twin and bad twin from an '80s cartoon).

Members quartermainefan Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 I vote just wait for Andrea Evans. No one else is qualified for the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 I tend to agree with quartermainefan. Don't get me wrong, I liked Karen Witter, but she was playing Tina Lite - I think Andrea represented the most interesting and entertaining qualities of Tina. What ABC did with her a few years ago basically represents the death of soaps more than almost anything I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr Neil Curtis Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 I like all the choices, I can't even choose. I like that you didn't go with all blonde actresses either, because Tina doesn't really have to be blonde all her life. I love Beth Chamberlain, Liz Keifer, Kim Ulrich, Lisa Peluso, Rebecca Staab, Colleen Dion. I look at the acting chops and I think any of those actresses could pull off Tina.

Members LoyaltoAMC Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 Of all of those listed, I think Melanie Smith could actually work. You'd have to cast someone with a kind of kittenish exterior that masks some heightened sexuality and who seems somewhat dangerous. Melanie can do kittensih and given off a vibe as being very sexual. I don't that vibe from the others. Some, like Mattson and Ulrich, are clearly too old. I was thinking of Cady McClain too. She doesn't look THAT unlike Evans and I think she'd have great chem with Slezak, though I'm not sure about the sexuality thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 You say Mattson and Ulrich (who are practically the same age as Evans) are too old, yet Cady McClain is a good choice? LOL What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 Ulrich always came across too matronly for me and Mattson doesnt have the sex appeal for the role. I cant see either as a replacement for Evans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 I'd have to say a big old nay to Mattson who doesn't even have the Tina look. I do think Mattson and Slezak would be an interesting acting duo, Mattson has the neurotic energy for a Tina-like character while not being as OTT as Roxy.

Members quartermainefan Posted February 25, 2011 Members Share Posted February 25, 2011 Cady McClain?!? Andrea Evans has Tina as this OTT uber fabulous unrealistic ditz, and Cady McClain just can't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
