Members SFK Posted June 26, 2012 Members Share Posted June 26, 2012 She was gorgeous and if they kept her I think she would have been Erica's greatest competition for Jack, bringing out a bunch of interesting body image insecurities for short, dark-featured Erica.

Members ivanmmd Posted June 26, 2012 Members Share Posted June 26, 2012 You can almost start up another topic on actors that everyone else loves but you hate. I would label Jennifer Landon as a miscast. Yes she was very successful in that role, but for me she was poison. My TV immediately turned off when she was on. Mainly because the show forced her down the audience's throat. My friends used to call ATWT- the "Jennifer Landon Hour". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted June 26, 2012 Members Share Posted June 26, 2012 She's miscast on Y&R. Everytime Heather in Paula are in scenes togetehr I forget that's his daughter and think it's his new girlfriend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 26, 2012 Members Share Posted June 26, 2012 She's very bland on Y&R but she's still better than ER was. But yeah she and DD act like love interests on screen. That's a good topic to start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted June 26, 2012 Members Share Posted June 26, 2012 RKK was an EXCELLENT Bo recast! IA with so many on your list. Loved Mark Valley as Jack as well. How is KM a miscast as Hope? Its not like there was much to go off of before her. I think she's a good fit for the young good ingenue she was hired to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldBeauty Posted June 26, 2012 Members Share Posted June 26, 2012 With Kim Matula, I just think there is nothing interesting about her. Hope lacks personality completely. Hope is the most boring character ever on B&B in my opinion. There is so little spark with her. So little of anything. The writing is bad for all characters, so I cannot blame the writing for Hope's dullness. So I conclude that it's the actress who is as dry as a martini. With RKK, there was just something about him that to me read sleazy and creepy. I will add that I am no huge fan of Bo Brady the character. Peter Reckell works in the part, but Bo will never be a favorite of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 27, 2012 Author Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 I would tend to agree about Heather. They had to compeltely rewrite the part to suit her. I never bought her as this weak and insecure girl who stayed home because of her acne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members antmunoz Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Linda Gibboney was an excellent Gina on SB. I realize that the part was written with Robin Mattson in mind and that Gibboney was basically a placeholder, but I loved her. The fans at the time agreed. I grew to love Mattson quickly but I missed Gibboney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldBeauty Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 1) Katie Logan used to be everything that Katie Logan is not anymore. They completely changed that character when Heather Tom took over. 2) I'll get hated for this, but I do not like Heather Tom. I think she's a good actress, just not THAT good to win every frickin Emmy. To me she always comes off as arrogant and annoyed, no matter what scene.

Members JellicleCat Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Katie had been off the show for years when Heather took over the role. I don't think her transformation was completely unrealistic. Katie was still very young when the character left the first time, and she had grown up while she was away. Personally I think Donna's transformation was much more unbelievable. At least Heather Tom and Nancy Sloan (original Katie) looked somewhat similar, whereas Jennifer Gareis and Donna Mitchum look nothing like each other. And Donna's personality changed much more than Katie's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Is it unbeleivable that a decent naive young girl with self esteem issues would grow up into a decent mature confident woman? Katie did not completely change. HT's rendition of her when the character returned in 2006 was a natural progression of the character which made sense. She still served as the moral center of the Logan family and had values and self respect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
