Members Ann_SS Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Guess, he is tired of Y&R. I am sure that he will get prime time work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dm. Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Hahahahahha Y&R is losing its golden boy. I can't get past the feeling that he's eating or that he's half drunk every time he speaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JimTolkien Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Usually I am sad when an actor I really like leaves a show (I don't even care about the reason why ) but this is one time I am going to say...Billy Miller quite possible has made the best decision in his career to leave this "going down the toilet" ill-managed show no matter how many big soap stars they bring in. BRAVO & GOOD LUCK!!! Why is there no clapping smilie on this board LOL!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Good riddance. They totally overexposed him, and Miller couldn't carry most of the material they thought were to his strengths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 He had no connection with scene partners because he was too busy hamming it up, he failed with about five love interests, and he was at the center of some of the most pointless stories ever on Y&R. Even the show finally seemed to give up on him. I will credit him for having the guts to leave instead of staying and demanding writing that caters to him (like Josh Morrow). I think he will be one of those people who is hyped but then isn't a big name after soaps (the only comments I've heard on his Justified appearance were poor), but then again, boring/asexual/smug seem to be popular today, if most of the current movie "stars" are any indication.

Members JimTolkien Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Ok, Carl...I am going to have pick on you. This right here is completely untrue, if anything Joshua doesn't get what he would like nor does he demand anything!!! He has his preferences sure, like they all do, but demanding anything, so not Joshua. Interesting how it's the ones that gets bashed continuously around here are the ones that shouldn't get bashed at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 I wonder if they will recast. I really hope Billy is not killed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Wow I'm shocked after so much hype has been built around for the past three years. I'll admit I enjoyed Miller early on as a foil for Cane but it became increasingly clear he couldn't do much beyond being smug and arrogant, which are not stable characteristics in the long run. Hope Miller has a nice career, and maybe Heinle will leave soon as well? I wonder if they'll recast? Probably not with David Tom though/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Considering that Phick are reuniting again, after Morrow has repeatedly called for this in the press, I would have to disagree, but I do respect your opinion and always enjoy your posts. I doubt he will be. He was an MAB/Sheffer pet so they will probably just rest him. They might as well just cast him with Hunt Block. I doubt there would be a lot of difference with the performance.

Members aMLCproduction Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Where are these videos coming from Is this thread about Billy leaving or what? Im getting confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 The videos stem from the thought of Chompers no longer being on a soap I once (and might again someday, in a parallel world) enjoyed. To paraphrase Eddie Murphy, we should party all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aMLCproduction Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 LOL You call him Chompers? Glad to hear you have not giving up on Y&R.
