Dukes Of Hazzard Alum joins Y&R

[DRW50]

She's a bit too much of a name at this point.

But Wendy Pepper is on the short list for the new Mary Williams.

[Ryan Chamberlain]

Ghost of John Ritter as an undead Brad?

*giggles*

[ReddFoxx]

Hal Williams from 227 will be joining to play Harmony's street friend Ray-Ray, who actually turns out to be Philip Chancellor II, who went into hiding to cover up the fact that he was really black and just masquerading in white makeup.

Phillip McKeon as Jeffery's long lost son!

Bo Derek as Genevieve's sister!

Jenna von Oÿ as the new Heather!

FOR THE LOVE OF -

I saw half the title on the main page, couldn't see what soap it was but I KNEW it was Y&R!

I'm holding out for Jane Wiedlin from the Go-Gos and The Surreal Life.

[All My Shadows]

Paula Poundstone IN as Esther's long-lost cousin, Funny Valentine.

But then again, we have to remember that this is the soap that had Morey Amsterdam and Geri Jewell as cast members at one point.

[Dr Neil Curtis]

Charlotte Rae and Conrad Bain are in as Chelsea's Grandparents and Delta Burkes, Jean Smart, Annie Potts, and Jan Hooks in as Lorie, Leslie, Chris, and Peggy Brooks.

[DRW50]

Replace the latter four with Cindy Williams, Donna Dixon, Erin Moran, and Jane Sibbett, and you've got it!

This thread

At least is not another cast member from AMC!

[Cheap21]

I heard they are eyeing Cameron Mathison to play Chelsea's abusive ex Bryan

[Juliajms]

All I can say is, Darnell coming over doesn't seem so bad now, does it peeps?

[DRW50]

Russell: Hey there old lady! It's me, from Survivor. <dirty chuckle>

Katharine: And I should know you because...

Russell: I was on Survivor. Gonna burn your socks! 'member?

Katharine: I'm afraid I don't watch very much television.

Russell: I got a nephew - Russell's nephew. And a brother - Russell's brother.

Katharine: Oh. Now I recall. You were on Newhart.

Russell: I'm your son, you stupid old lady!

Katharine: Of course you are. I tell you what, I'm going to give you Jill's number...

[edgeofnik]

Are ALL non-soap actors considered stunt casting? Good grief. From that picture, she sure looks like she could be Chelsea's mother - unlike Patch & Angie as Devon's biorents. As long as she can act, I have no problem with this. Figure Genie and Hudak will be gone by then. (Unless, Emily comes back to town to "heal" Jack.)

If it is someone who has little talent and is mostly known for one or two things they did a long time ago, I would say yes. And generally, this applies to all of Y&R's casting for these roles. Sean Young, Cindy Brady, etc.
