Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 Maybe now Y&R can actually cast Abby with an age appropriate and talented actress... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 I'm all for it if it gets her off Y&R! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 Good for Y&R, bad, bad, bad for GH. I didn't mind her Lizzie on GL but I never wanted to see her again after she started playing Abby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 She played Lizzie and Abby exactly the same with the hyper line reading, running in and out of scenes, and constant eye blinking and gasping acting ticks. I can't imagine she'll be any different as Lulu, who is supposed to be a more downtrodden character. We'll see, but I've never seen anything appealing about Rylan's acting.

Members Vee Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 Lulu's only "downtrodden" because that is all Julie Berman plays. Or should I say, does. I don't consider it acting on her part. She's bored to tears and has been for years. I don't attribute it to Lulu and I never will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 I think it's part of Lulu too - she hated her childhood, she became a boozehound, she felt burned by life, etc. JMB played it dourly. Rylan would probably play it shrieky and a little campy, in the eternal Legally Blonde roadshow that is her acting career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 So does this mean we'll get a new Abby on Y&R? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 I see her Lulu and Maxie being clones, she seems to play the characters all the same. Heck her Abby reminds me of KS Maxie ALOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 She wasn't always like that. That's how they justified what JMB's performance became, and, simultaneously, how they justified Guza's writing for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 Whenever Julie is supposed to play Looloo as upbeat and simply happy, sort of normal, it came off as if she were high. The recent NYE scene where Looloo and Carly were sharing a scene and Carly was happy for her that the night club was a success, and Julie was so over the top! She doesn't understand balance so she goes to the extreme to make Looloo seem normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 Berman started off with some promise, but after her first year or so, that was all gone. I can't see her (or her big head) getting many parts in primetime or in films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 I wondered the same but it's the wrong thread for it, I guess. That said; I would assume that Y&R has already taped the Nikki/Victor wedding and is amdist it's anniversary shows and afterwards Abby is not needed for the time being. I enjoyed her start at Jabot plus the Carmine/Alex nixing but she is not essential. I also liked Rylan on Y&R and she should make a decent Lulu.

Members Ann_SS Posted March 6, 2013 Members Share Posted March 6, 2013 It will be interesting to see if JMB gets major prime time work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
