'Y&R' Continues to Bloat up Its Cast

[AllMyDaysatGH]

Soap Digest

Y&R is looking for someone to play the contract role of "Ricky", who is described as a gorgeous, sexy, Latino model in his early 20s. The role would start taping around 8/5 and the casting sheet asks for "models who want to act" as well as foreign actors.

[Gray Bunny]

LOL

[KMan101]

So they STILL haven't cast Pauls son yet? And REALLY "models who can act" ... WOW

[DRW50]

Not models who can act. Models who want to act.

Given how meaningless acting seems to be on today's Y&R, not a big surprise.

Wasn't Ricky born and raised in the US? Why are they looking for foreign actors?

[MoTheGreat]

Maybe he was raise overseas. He'll probaby come back with the wrong accent that doesn't fit the country.

But I thought he was apart of the teen storyline that's going to be happening real soon.

[P.J.]

Well, Ricky's been raised by Isabella's family, hence, it'd be realistic to be fluent in Spanish.

*snort* The teens were supposed to be the "summer" story. Ricky can't possibly be on-screen before Sept. Hopefully this will please the lone Doug Davidson fan who keeps petitioning for more Paul time though.

[JackPeyton]

Right, im sure he has one fan.

That would make him about even with the number of Y&R fans M West has...

[Juliajms]

Well, I like them both, so they each have at least two fans, it would seem.

[DeeeDee]

Wow.

[DRW50]

Paul is seen less than ever when he has a child on the canvas, apparently.

I'm just trying to figure out - do they think that speaking Spanish means you have to be a foreigner? I'm probably overanalyzing. With this team I just don't know if he's going to end up wearing a sombrero.

It's ok. Let him come on. It will only lead to even worse quality storytelling, which will continue the dip in the rating s which in turn MAB will eventually be canned. It's a shame what is happening Here. may was such a good month and even some of June but things are taking another downward turn.

[DeeeDee]

Do you even have to ask?

[YRBB]

YES! Let's find even more characters to destroy!!!! YYEEES!
