Jeff Branson is coming back .

http://cbs.soapsindepth.com/2011/05/a-comeback-for-branson.html

I wonder if he will be staying around long term or if this is something to pass the time before a shot at a primetime show comes up?

-1 NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only actor besides Jon Driscoll that Liz Hendricksen actually had a flickering of chemistry with. Not that this is should be an excuse for this random character to come back to the show. Ruhnuh and his tuhtuh-lay weird diction.

I loved Ronan and Chloe so they need to pair them again. I was disgusted when they paired her with lackluster Kevin.

So let me correct my previous post:

We're losing Maura West (and John Driscoll for that matter) and we're keeping Eden Riegel, Jeff Branson, Christel Khalil, Daniel Goddard, Billy Miller, Amelia Heinle, Elizabeth Hendrickson (who I like but is becoming pointless and HATE her with Kevin), Greg Rikaart, Stephen Nichols, Bryton McClure, Julia Pace Mitchell, and Darius McDreary?

GMAFB Y&R!

Correct, juniorz.

Don't forget that MTS may be walking, too. Because Daniel Goddard and Greg Rikaart is what we need to see more of.

Hendrickson has been full of smug and unpleasant tics in this role all along, and she seems very lazy in the part (not that I can totally blame her). Branson plays most of his scenes like he's 3/4 asleep. If he is going to be her salvation, they might as well just write her out already. The last time the show had no idea what to do with them and finally he just flushed her.

I admit I am always perplexed at the outpouring for EH. I find her a pretty dull uninspired actress. I compare her to someone like Emily O'Brien who could act light years ahead with some of the most god awful material and its a head scratcher. BUt to each his own.

Thats probably why I never saw anthing remotely interesting between Chloe and Ronan. And Jeff Branson doesn't inspire much in this role either.

I liked Elizabeth on AMC, even though Maggie wasn't exactly a dynamo role. I just have never bought her on Y&R, or the confused mess of a character Chloe is. She's also a very asexual actress and she relies on "snarky" type acting in place of emotion.

I hated her on AMC as both Frankie and Maggie. Ive always found her to be alot more tolerable as Chloe. Maggie was an ill concieved mess from beginning to end whom they never knew what to do with. Funny you say Chloe's a confused mess, but thats exactly what EH's role on AMC was.

Maggie's sexuality was confused, and poorly written, but the character I generally understood. Chloe goes from psycho to long-suffering heroine to sneery sorority princess depending on the day. Having her as Esther's daughter came out of nowhere and went right back to nowhere, and the scenes of her verbally abusing Esther were a very bad miscalculation.

Hendrickson also had a natural chemistry with certain actors on AMC that has been MIA on this show, sometimes startlingly so.

F*ck!

I love Jeff Branson, but Y&R will make him suck.
