Michael is 19 or 20 so CD's young look is appropriate for the role he is playing. The girl looks fine in the pics but the video reel makes her look a bit older and defiently older than her onscreen "older" brother

Me too. I would love to see Josh cast on this show in a new role or even as Cutter. My idea was to have him come to PC and try to scam Monica out of her money. She'd be a cougar and appreciate having the affection and attention of a man (especially since she hasnt had one in years). Tracy would see right through him and try to get rid of him. If she wasnt married to Anthony, Id have the story end up with Cutter finding a way to get her to marry him. Maybe she kills Anthony, Cutter witnesses and blackmails her into marriage so he wont have to testify? Definetly would cause some drama at the Q mansion between all parties

I didn't think much of him on OLTL, mostly because of the waxed Ken doll look (and those outfits, which, as above, were not overly flattering and actually made him less attractive), as well as the character being a huge mess, between the confusing relationship with Kim (was he her older or younger brother?), the incredibly stupid schemes which always failed, and the "hot" scenes where he wanted to nail a mentally ill woman. I also thought he he had little chemistry with his co-stars. However, he'd be a lot better than any of GH's current leading men.

I like Josh Kelly but I honestly don't think he fits Phillip who always seemed to have an air of sophistication and inner strength about him or should. He could be a recast Dillon on GH or a new character on that show. They need more help over there with male talent.

Jacob young might have worked as Phillip but I actually liked Jay Kenneth Johnson in the role. But no more Melanie pairing.

In his defense, his story was very predictable and the character was created with little to no layers. Any charm or appeal he had purely came from Josh and his comedic timing bc any other actor in the role could have easily made Cutter come across dull. The character seemed very limited like he was meant to be here for just a few months and lasted alot longer than he should have. I thought he got a bit better once they moved him away from Aubrey and got mixxed up with Gigi. I think he started to feel more like a character and find his footing by that point instead of merely being a vehicle to move Aubrey and Tess' plots along. I thought he got decent characterization in the show's final months

How about Josh as a Jeremy Horton?

I feel they will put her with any new young guy that comes on. The pairing will fail and she will stay on

I would hope so.

But shes likely quitting when her contract is up, so no.

I think there can be a lot more to philip than the spoiled rich boy who is entitled that JKJ plays (wonderfully)

It was. That quad was huge for days and did well. Then MH got fired and SH/JKJ quit.

Burnett and Hapka always fit better and had better chemistry. I actually didn't mind the quad at first but Phillip and Melanie should never have been the rootable couple.

And Phillip really never got to play the rich kid with his recent stint. The direction Sheffer was going making Phillip and EJ as enemies and adversaries would have been far more interesting long term and would have given both more than never ending love triangles and baby stories. I understood completely why JKJ left. He looked checked out his last year on the show.

And for some reason Josh Kelly to me just doesn't seem like he would fit on Days and I can't explain why.

I think Sheffer severely damaged both Phillip and EJ. It seemed like once they stopped having Phillip abusing women, Sheffer lost interest. Then they had the sudden pairing with Belle, which confused me because Martha Madison is (onscreen anyway) very asexual.

IA but I still think the idea of them being rivals was a better idea and I actually thought Martha Madison and JKJ had great chemistry. I don't think to be honest the writing improved for EJ at all and Phillip to me just seemed to become role number 4 in that quad vs Phillip under the next regime.
