That busted, oddly asexual divo getting any acting job after he and Farah Finger helped make OLTL's last years unwatchable?

Pathetic.

His acting was more diva style IMO

TERRIBLE.

Pretty much sums it up for me! Is this some kind of bad joke on Days part?? JPL is one awful actor….he was just outright horrible on OLTL…laughable actor.

So does this mean Will gets another potential love interest?

That was my first thought too….are they making him swing Will's way??

WTF! NO!!!! For me, I think this is the first disappointing casting news for the reboot.

Now if Toups complains you know its a bad decision.

Dena didn't write for FF

Maybe you are talking about OLTL but on Days FF as Mimi got alot of airtime during Dena's writing.

More bad acting from the dynamic duo….

JPL was fine before Ronald bent over backwards (and frontwards) to make him the show's leading man. That being said, someone up above asked who would have been a better choice. That age group has several decent actors who may or may not have been interested in the job. Scott Bailey, Mark Lawson, John Driscoll, just to name a few.

I keep thinking days is getting those steady cams

There are literally hundreds of thousands of white, good looking and talented men (whether known or unknown) that could play the part. Hundreds of thousands!

I sympathize with poor JP as a person, but I can think of few beta males less suited to this role, I'll say that much.

He would have been good!

Yes to Mark Lawson! He would've been a perfect Phillip recast.

I like JPL but I don't see him playing a Kiriakis heir. At least not Phillip. I could see him as reformed Jeremy Horton.

Maybe SOD got the info wrong and he is a recast Will.

That would be better than Guy Wilson occupying the role.

Id call it a tie….GW is motionless and JPL is over the top stuttering bugged eyed acting…neither one is good IMO

JP and MM don't look too bad on that Winterthorne flop

L M A O What is this???

Why do some of these actors get one good soap role and then soap hop the rest of their careers? Or do projects like this, low budget "soap operas"? This can't possibly be lucrative.

UGH.
