Members PJA Posted June 2, 2014 Members Share Posted June 2, 2014 Phyllis made the boring Nick interesting. Nick has got to be the most boring character from a main family ever. And if the non-acting JM can be a Newman, then the much more talented AH can as well. I don't get the AH comments about her not being strong enough to play a lead character much less one in a lead family when JM is about the worst actor on the show. Oh I know its an unpopular opinion but that's just how I feel. I don't think HT is a bad actress....loved her as Katie on B&B (I no longer watch). I just never got into her when she was Victoria and was glad when she was written out. It would be nice if Sharon could sow her oats somewhere other than Genoa City.

Members NothinButAttitude Posted June 2, 2014 Members Share Posted June 2, 2014 Just like I wish that someone would've pulled the plug on Phyllis ... outside of Genoa City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PJA Posted June 3, 2014 Members Share Posted June 3, 2014 They probably should rather than recast. I like GT but don't really care for recasts. It will be interesting to see her take on Phyllis....not sure of how she's going to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted June 3, 2014 Author Members Share Posted June 3, 2014 They're relying too much on recasts when they need to be developing new characters. After a while you need to limit the recasts. Adam, for example, is not needed. Give the character a proper rest. Have some creativity and develop a new leading man. Same for Phyllis. Her story came to a natural end and she really isn't needed, so why not just bring on a new character for Gina Tognoni? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 3, 2014 Members Share Posted June 3, 2014 Y&R is drowning in both recasts and new characters. If GT wasn't going to be Phyllis, I'd rather they not bring her on at all right now. Take all these new characters and develop them. Give the audience reason to care about them, before bringing on anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted June 3, 2014 Members Share Posted June 3, 2014 This show already has enough new ccharacters leading story. No more is needed. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 Sorry, Chris B, but I have to agree ajsp and Julia. Y&R needs to focus more on the characters already in place rather than on recasts and new characters. Besides, this show's recent track record with newbies has not been the best, IMO.

Members Chris B Posted June 4, 2014 Author Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 Oh I actually agree with that, I'm just saying if they HAD to have Gina Tognoni I'd rather have a new character than a recast that is too young and eliminated Phyllis' history. How will she look next to Christine and Danny? Daniel and her granddaughter? Out of all these roles I would've kept David Tom as Billy, left Phyllis and Adam off canvas and they could've recast Kelly with Gina Tognoni. At the very least I would've even accepted Gina replacing Cady as Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 She looks fine next to Christine. LLB is around 45. Daniel is the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 Nobody really looks fine next to LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 That's being generous, IMO. In fact, I think that's being too generous, lol. I, myself, would have written off Billy and Victoria with the explanation that the two left GC to get a fresh start in a different town. I also would have ditched Kelly fairly quickly, along with this alleged, big secret she shares with Stitch. That way, I could have had Stitch become involved with Sharon. Oh, yeah, I would have left Phyllis and Adam off-canvas as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 +1 But I would've brought GT on as Sharon's friend, Grace. That would've been a role for her right age range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 That would've been a good choice. I would've kept DT as Billy, dump Cane, Stitch and Kelly. Put Victoria in a coma or have her presumed dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 Well, if I just had to have GT, I guess I would have brought her on as Stitch's ex-wife, Jenna. (And I would have introduced her as the mother of the child a delusional Chloe mistakes for Delia and then abducts -- "Surprise, she lied about moving to Australia!") That way, you still could "test" her w/ Joshua Morrow as part of a Stitch/Sharon/Jenna/Nick quadrangle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted June 4, 2014 Members Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hasn't the Chloe character been rolled over enough in this story? I don't want her propping another kid and her mother to make them more likable. I got enough of that with Chelserella. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
