BB: Actress OUT!


Recommended Posts

From TVGuide's Soaps News:

Lesli Kay is a treasure and I hope that the powers that be at ATWT are smart enought to take this wonderfully talented actress back into the fold.

I'm sure Lesli Kay's farewell episode on BB as Felicia will be a real tissue-soaker!

I have enjoyed LK's Felicia immensely ... I just never cared for LK as Lois on GH (the only show I saw her in). IMO and storywise Felicia does have to die. To have her do otherwise would be incredible and too unrealistic since we've been told her colon cancer has spread to her liver and stomach ... no one survives that prognosis. The story is a good one and well-written and LK has hit her scenes out of the ballpark with SF, JW, and JMc. Felicia before was never that prominent or important of a character and her last appearance (with the original actress) fell flat. At least she's going out in style.

Don't watch B&B and don't see why anyone does, with idiotic moves like this. They lure big name actors and actresses to the show and then axe within a year. ATWT should grab Lesli Kay back, or maybe another show, like DAYS or OLTL would grab her. She'd be a good Cassie re-cast on OLTL.

Lesli Kay has been great on this show but I dont think she's all that that Id want to see ehr play recast to some of my favorite characters. I was never fond of her (hated her on ATWT and GH) but LOVED her here on B&B. Its a shame they are getting rid of her bc she has been a breath of fresh air

Leslie Kay is a phenominal talent and GH should be ashamed of how they treated her. I think she did well as Lois, but she would have been better as a new character (perhaps Lorenzo's lost love Sophie). B&B did a good job with her. They needed a powerhouse to handle the role and she's done it to perfection. I think she would be a great addition to OLTL as Cassie or AMC as either a recast of a character or a new one. Wouldn't it be great if she could be nominated for an Emmy for her role? I don't think she was, but it would be great if she could. I think the Daytime Emmy's should add a new category for short-term roles (like how Sharon Stone & William Shatner won an Emmy for their work on the Practice).

    • Sarah (with the English accent) isn't just some random character.  Sarah was once the housekeeper for Eliot Dorn and Margo Huntington.  One of the following 2 scenarios happened a few months ago: (1):  One night, while Margo wasn't at home, and while Oscar the Doorman wasn't at his post, a burglar sneaked into the private elevator, rode up to the penthouse, stole several thousand dollars worth of Margo's valuable diamonds and pearls, and tied-up Eliot Dorn and Sarah the Housekeeper, ensuring that Eliot and Sarah couldn't pursue the burglar back down to the lobby or phone the police to apprehend the burglar. OR --  (2): Eliot Dorn was SLEEPING with Sarah the Housekeeper, and the two of them conspired to steal Margo's jewelry and went on a lavish spending spree and then tied THEMSELVES up to make it look as though a burglary had occurred in the penthouse. Margo Dorn currently believes Scenario #1 occurred, and she's rather annoyed that the "incompetent police" haven't located her stolen jewels yet.  Eliot and Sarah know that Scenario #2 actually occurred.  When Sarah stopped by the Unicorn and saw Eliot kissing Raven Swift, Sarah snidely said, "Oh! This must be Mrs. Dorn!  Nice to meet you, Mrs. Dorn!" Sarah knew good & damn well Raven isn't "Mrs. Dorn" because Sarah worked for Margo Dorn on a daily basis for many months.  That was Sarah's not-so-subtle way of announcing, "I'll be paying a visit to District Attorney Logan Swift and letting him know that his wife is sleeping with you, and I'll be paying a visit to WMON to let Margo Huntington know that you're sleeping with Mrs. Swift!"  lol.     
    • The AMC hate came from Jamey Giddens/DC and their industry friends, IMO. For whatever reason I always felt they targeted the show, and it was wrong. AMC ratings were decent and even went up under Pratt (Yet, he was fired). The ratings were also good under Broderick and lowered out after her interim.  There was no reason to be upset with the show other than it being slow. They literally played it safe and did the best they could in 2010 and 2011. 
    • I have very detailed synopses of all 1976 storylines for the soaps from the Daytime Serial Newsletter. Please let me know if you are interested in a particular show and I will post it in the appropriate thread. As I stated they are very detailed, so I don't want to clutter up threads if posters are not interested.

    • Surely we (and Billy Flynn) are not going to be saddled with a character named Aristotle Dumas? This isn't 1970's Edge of Night.
    • What annoys me a little bit about the "day players" is they sound a bit too "Brooklyn-ish" sometimes.  Obviously, the show was taped in New York City, and the actors are all New York actors, but Monticello is supposed to be located in Illinois or Ohio.  Occasionally, they grab actors and actresses for small roles who have VERY distinct New York accents, which contrasts sharply with the main cast, none of whom have noticeable accents (except for our dashing European gigolo, Eliot Dorn, of course).  The heavy Brooklyn accent works fine if the character is a bookie, or the owner of a pawn shop, or a guy who's selling stolen guns on the street corner.  But when it's a steadily recurring character -- such as the first Mrs. Goodman, who worked for Miles and Nicole -- it's pretty jarring to me sometimes.  And you'll see it often -- such as an "under-five" character who witnesses a car accident, or a character who witnesses a shooting, or the occasional desk clerk, or waiter.
