Well, Thorsten Kaye's out.

[KMan101]

Sounds about right ....

[KMan101]

Good for Thorsten. I find it a bit of an odd choice for Ridge but congrats to him. I can kinda see him on B&B, I guess. Too bad Hunter and Taylor aren't around. I think he'd fit great with her.

Yay, no threat of a Zzzzendull reunion is fantastic news for us AMC fans! Now Kendall can die in Bianca's arms after her body rejects Josh's heart.

[John]

Good for him. He will be a good Ridge. I do feel If and when AMC & OLTL return, another time jump may be necessary like a year or two. I do feel TK leaving wont cause AMC to not return. Maybe it wont be a time jump per say but PP will just have to explain what hapens to the characters not there

I don't see either of these shows in production before the year is up. I'll be there if they do return, but I don't think anything is going to happen in the near future. Thorsten was one of their stars and he's already released from his contract, which means everybody else is. If and when these shows get back up and running they'll have to re-sign everybody which might be a hassle. Plus we're going to have to deal with more cases like this as people find work.

Congrats to TK. He's right - at a certain point in life you have to think about your kids and your family and your long-term career. I wish him well on B&B.

[Wizzerkat]

This news does make me much less inclined to believe AMC will be back Still hopeful, though. However, if they do come back, Zach's absence won't be that hard to explain. His character did not have as many interactions as others.

[John]

I agree If and when they start production wont be til January at the earliest and maybe thats the right idea. get the prod model down, get the cast, write the scripts. Then film.

Yeah I agree. Makes me wonder if Ronn Moss will try & get the part back now.

[John]

Sorry wrong thread

[Vee]

You don't need to recast Zach. Just say he reunited with Kendall.

[jjjg]

Exactly why I thought the 3 from OLTL were right to join and stay at GH.

[EricMontreal22]

I believe the contracts were only for that short run anyway--weren't they?
