Members Money Posted June 25, 2011 Members Share Posted June 25, 2011 I loathe when soaps recast roles with actors who played different roles on the same show. Megan was fine and if they cast Tamara as Kate it's going to be stupid. Claudia bombed and so will Tam-Kate. And speaking of... Tamara should never have been cast as Taylor when she played Ava on DAYS less than three years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted June 25, 2011 Members Share Posted June 25, 2011 Megan Ward was perfectly fine as Kate. She did have that look of an Anna Wintour wannabe, that more typical looking soap starlets like Rebecca Budig just don't have. I don't think Budig would be believable in this role at all, but I could see someone like Gina Tognoni giving it a good shot. This seems silly, but to play Kate right you sort of need to have stylish chic hair, not the typical long soap hair that everyone on soaps has. Considering the nature of the role, I think image is really important. Perhaps Braun could play an old washed up out of work model doing coke to stay thin, but as Kate she would be not believable.

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted June 25, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 25, 2011 LOL...no. Just no. She was every antonym of the word "perfect", plus insufferable. I will welcome a new Actress in the role! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OLTL_fan Posted June 25, 2011 Members Share Posted June 25, 2011 Megan Ward is great! This is terrible. The thought of replacing her with Tamara Braun or Rebecca Budig is just insulting. Strike 1 Garin Wolf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 25, 2011 Members Share Posted June 25, 2011 I wouldn't bother bringing this character back at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 25, 2011 Members Share Posted June 25, 2011 I don't see the point of the character either. Her story was wrapped up and she has no real ties to anyone left - her scenes with Olivia were pure hell, the relationship with Sonny ended, definitively...and scenes of her yelling at pathetic Lulu and Maxie don't seem to be much incentive for a return.

Members Cheap21 Posted June 26, 2011 Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 The point of her return is to give Sonny a love interest with Brenda gone. I think its pretty obvious their relationship will be revisted. I guess they are going with someone from his past rather than create yet another Brenda clone to warm his bed. Fortunately it looks like they may have realized that he and LW have no chemistry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted June 26, 2011 Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 Yet you want two of the most awful actresses in soaps to play her? No offense but RB is too young to play someone who grew up with someone who's in his mid 40's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted June 26, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 Well Tams or Budig would be upgrades in my book, I personally like both Actresses. And I could care less about age...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 26, 2011 Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 I loved Megan, but i would be so down with either of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 26, 2011 Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 Budig would end up being a lot like Laura Wright is on GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted June 26, 2011 Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 I'm surprised your not pimping Alicia Minshew for the role. Or should I stay "pressed"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted June 26, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 What an amazing idea that would be. GH would be so smart to welcome Alicia to the cast, in any role. She would rock as Kate and her and Maurice would be FIRE together!! I want Alicia on GH as a new mob princess who gets mixed up romantically with Johnny Zacchara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 26, 2011 Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 Alicia can go do commercials and ....stay pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 26, 2011 Members Share Posted June 26, 2011 God, no. This would be the worst thing to EVER happen to GH. I would sooner welcome Guza back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
