Perhaps....

Or maybe he was just reading and its not a big deal at all.

LOL. PB is an Actor (capital A) and Actors don't just read, dammit, they emote. Ever hear Shakespeare's "all the world's a stage". Seriously, though, have you ever worked with actors? I have. Most look at any reading as a potential audition for something.

For a simple voiceover for a job he,s held for years? Why wouldn't he just read?

[Aback]

I don't understand the need to have PB (a current castmember) do the voice over. It just takes all the more away from the fantasy IMO.

[chicklitsandfantasies]

Why did he even do this one? Because I'm almost positive he didn't do the one when Abby was recast last year.

I have a BFA in Theatre actually...again I still don't understand the hoopla over a freakin voice over. I don't remember any posts here when PB did the voiceover for Adam's recast.

While I liked the Adam/Jack relationship, dating back to Engen in the role it hasn't made sense in a long ass time. Jack let Adam take the fall for the journal forgery and Adam has now killed two of Jack's nieces/nephew depending on what Ashley was having.

Agree about Jack and Adam. When it was just a mutually beneficial alliance to take the mustache down, it was fine. But when it became Adam being the son Jack should have onscreen, it got to be too much. Jack should never care for Adam beyond using him. Period.

[Cat]

The Adam-Jack friendship was always OOC for both, especially after the torture Adam put Ashley through.

I wonder if PB was the only actor left who MM didn't have beef with (or insulted on set or on Twitter) and that's why they kept writing the heart-warming father/son type scenes.
