Julian watching Golden Girls. Happily. That's... difficult to wrap my head around. #GH

I remember the fans (well, some of us) who were interested in a Lucas return and his father's mob ties. It should have been a compelling story. Casting that silly fop as his father rendered all of this moot. They probably have to have Lucas call him "Dad" because otherwise viewers who don't pay attention would probably wonder when they're going to make out.

Seriously Jillian as a mobster is a complete joke. He is not believable at all. Maybe this is why Alexis loves him so much cause he has no balls.

Uh oh, Ronald will get in a tizzy

Agreed.

I was interested but deVry sucks in this role and Jillian is a total joke.

De Vry was more threatening as Michael Cambias

Please, please, please stop complimenting the strange, creepy man playing Agent Sloane. He is terrible and should leave immediately.

I think RC has done a fine job as Lucas, but the story is barely there. For months he was presented as little more than a handsome prize for Ron's gays to fight over, and then Ron lost interest in Felix and now we're sort of in this morass where nobody at the show gives a [!@#$%^&*] to do more with a couple talented actors. All they do is talk about gay stereotype clichés.

I think deVry is a strange man, but he plays Julian Jerome - a monied, overcompensating, metrosexual middle-aged douchebag - to the hilt. For whatever reason he fully embodies that character and sells it, and I've come to appreciate his real chemistry with NLG/Alexis and his place on the show. Julian is an pompous, preening ass who thinks he is God's gift to women and probably checks his receding hairline everyday, and that's a real character. I don't necessarily like him as a person but I find him entertaining. He's much more colorful and somewhat layered than Sonny and Jason have been for years.

I want Carly and Jason to hook up again, so that Jason is totally mortified when he remembers who he is.

I'm not seeing deVry selling anything, TBH. He looks constipated. I don't find him colorful or layered or entertaining. JMO. We all like what we like but I'm not seeing any of that.

Agreed and if I were EP of the show I would have fired him already.

I'm sure DeVry would be just fine in a remake of Downstairs (Geary too), but for what the role should have been, I don't think he is suitable. It doesn't help that other than Jax, every Alexis pairing seems to turn NLG into the equivalent of one of those Molly Shannon parodies of a deluded immature woman who thinks she's sexy and hot and no one wants to tell her otherwise.

DeVry was good on AMC, why is he so awful on GH? I never saw him on B&B, how was he on their?

Who was writing AMC at the time?? Megan?? Seriously RC doesn't know how to write s h i t…he is an awful hack writer. Name one good story RC has written on GH?

Yeah I think it was McTrash

Officer Padilla....WTF? I had to google bc I completely forgot about this character. How random

Damn he looks good today

McTrash wrote him better …the writing for Jillian has been awful.

I think deVry was the same on AMC. The only difference is Julian is not a rapist. The type works for the character.

DeVry had actual chemistry with Alicia MIshnew and had a strong presence...I just haven't seen it here.

Gordon Rayfield and the other guy (Cascio?) wrote most of his time there I think. McTavish the last few months.
