JUSTIN GASTON OUT AS BEN...RECAST WITH ROBERT SCOTT WILSON

Soap Opera Digest has confirmed the casting switch I've been teasing for the past several months: Justin Gaston (Ben) has been released from his contract after his first 13-week cy...cle ended. Robert Scott Wilson, who was the first-ever male model on "The Price Is Right" and who appeared as Pete Cortland on the brief "All My Children" online reboot last year, will replace Gaston in the role. Look for the switch to happen on-air towards the end of May sweeps.

In the past few months, I've posted a few teasing hints about the switch, saying that some fans might not be smiling (in regards to Gaston's ex, Miley Cyrus) as well as others who would "come on down" (in regards to the famous Price Is Right catchphrase). I also stated that Wilson fans would be affected by the casting news (meaning Robert Scott Wilson fans, and not Will/Sonny fans as some had expected).

Drew Carey also had the rumor mill swirling last week when he tweeted that Wilson was no longer with "The Price Is Right" and that he was now appearing on a soap. Hope everyone had fun playing along the past few months. Congratulations to those of you who began figuring out the news last week on several of the message boards.

    • This entire week has been really good!  First starting with Xander beating up Philip.  I too didn't expect to see Xander get so violent, by kicking Philip numerous times. And I didn't expect Philip to tell Xander that "Sarah knew," which lead to Wednesday's wonderful scenes with Xander/Sarah confronting each other.  I think those scenes were definitely Lindsay's best acting that she's done on the show.  I'm not really a huge fan of Sarah/Xander as a romantic couple - I don't hate them either.  But Lindsay and Paul do have a ton of acting chemistry and these scenes proved that.  I don't read spoilers so I had no idea Bo/Hope were going to be on today.  That was a nice surprise.  Same with Ciara showing up. I totally forgot Ciara has two kids with Ben. I liked how she talked about them and Zack.  I've always liked Victoria Konefal and thought she did a good job today. And yes, I didn't mind seeing Ciara's usual cleavage shot during those emotional scenes. Thank you, wardrobe department!  LOL Could the lead up to John's death have been better?  Sure.  But I didn't hate it.  I liked that John's final act was saving Bo's life.  And that full circle moment at the hospital with Marlena was poetic.  I was starting to get a bit teary eyed during today's episode.  Next week is going to be tough.

        I don't know if John getting blown up to pieces would've been the right idea.

    •  Audra and Imani fighting over Nate could’ve been fun…if written by the BTG writers of course!
    • IKR. Silk Press Sheila has no chill.
    • Same. If he is going to recovered from burns this fast...he could at least be darker.    
    • “That’s MISS Bitch” absolutely made me hollered. I needed that today!

    • I don't think she has at all. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't she say her mother passed?   Don't get me started. Damian should have been kept as head of Dumas and we question his motives. The story up til the Dumas plot twist was great, refreshing, and had twists and turns that the Dumas twist was just unnecessary and seem to be made so the story could be hijacked by everyone NOT Devon/Nate/Lily so they have something to do. Even now, that part of the story...and their involvement in it...feels like an afterthought.  Yep. Pretty much.
    • I feel Audra pretty much replaced Imani.
    • IKR!!! That's how I feel about his writing as well. There's such a realness to his writing that I really do like.  Same.    And I cannot wait to see who plays her.
