Members slick jones Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 BM's smirky one note acting along with his scene chewing. arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. ME,MS, RH already eat the show. Now this jackhole. We'll never see the rest of the cast. JB BM isn't an icon. Beverlee McKinsey, Douglass Watson, Eileen Fulton, Erika Slezak and Susan Lucci are icons. BM is an over-hyped, smirking dim bulb of an actor. ICON MY *SS!

Members OldGHFan Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 Billy Miller is a big soap name? I didn't even know who he was. All I see is another former soap star coming to GH while the former GH stars sit on the sidelines. I got sick of Jason (played by Steve Burton) about 10 years ago. Some "big name" Y&R actor playing Jason isn't going to make it any better for me. And to top it off, there are no decent storylines on this show. It's complete stunt casting that I'm not even interested in. Zzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 Completely agree. I am a little tired of these Y&R rejects coming to GH. If I wanted to watch this crew I would have been watching Y&R all these years. As for Billy Miller, why would GH have to pay big for him? He left soaps two seconds ago and obviously failed to find whatever nibble he was looking for elsewhere, so here he is back on one of four remaining soaps. Y&R is closed to him since his role was recast and/or he does not want to work for the current producer, so where else was he going? Obviously the Bell crowd didn't pounce on him for B&B and that leaves DOOL. So really, how many options did Billy Miller have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 I am a little amazed DAYS has been so eager to get all the OLTL people. Gary Tomlin, it makes sense he'd hire Melissa Archer since he discovered her, but I was still surprised that whole team went for her - she's never been valued as much as she should be by the industry. KDP made a little more sense given her long history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 The main problem with Miller is that he can't play the old Jason either, because he has anti-chemistry with pretty much every single person he shares the screen with. He's too self-involved an actor to be able to make emotional connections. He'll be able to smirk, and jump around, like Howarth does, and a lot of fans, along with Jamey and friends, will say he blows Burton out of the water and this is the "real" Jason, and so forth. But in terms of performance, or work with scene partners, or anything beyond smirking and yelling, he's SOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 You may well be correct. I did like him on AMC, and I liked him at times on Y&R before he totally took over, so I will reserve judgment. After decades of Steve Burton's studied disinterest I am open to something new.

Members Khan Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 I think we all are, Vee. But BM isn't what some of us had in mind. Perhaps GH should just do away with scenery altogether. That way, the budget stays down, and so do Howarth, Stafford, and Miller's weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members full hearts Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 Ratings. I find it to be strange because while I like Billy MIller, I've never thought of him as this huge ratings draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 Only diehard Billy/Victoria fans see BM as a ratings draw. To most everyone else, he's just another marginal-at-best performer who's only back here in soaps because he either won't commit fully to testing the primetime waters or he did but learned quick how dime-a-dozen he was in that part of the industry.

Members Taoboi Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 Well, I like him and want to see what he brings to the table. And how ugly he will surely be dressed...or undressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sivad40 Posted September 3, 2014 Members Share Posted September 3, 2014 This thread is 8 pages long and that was quick. I don't mind him playing Jason and I'm interesting to see who has chemistry with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
