Soap alum joins DAYS

[SFK]

"Pocket"? Was that inspired by Michael Jackson's son Blanket or something?

I loved Rex and Gigi until that Stacy Morasco garbage started, they worked best in small doses and with Adrianna as their foil.

I still like Farah and her middle finger and wouldn't mind her being back at DOOL but Mimi is not needed atm.

Well, I find him attractive. No, not hottest guy ever, but let's just say I see him as more attainable to Y&R's core audience than Justin Hartley will ever be. Don't get my wrong. I love, JH. I'm just saying I can see myself being asked on a date by the likes of DT, JH not so much. I think soaps should have a mix of attractiveness levels. Meanwhile, If the Billy we have now asked me out, I'd say no.

Also, let's admit that if Jack Wagner had taken over the role from Billy Miller, he would have taken the hits that David Tom took from Millers over zealous fans.

Oh yes! He'd be a great casting choice!

IDK. Patch gave it to him as a nickname when he and Kayla the baby for awhile.

[DaytimeFan]

JPL isn't a great choice - but I think he's better than Kyle Brandt who was just dreadful. If JKJ wasn't approached then it's classic DAYS being DAYS when it comes to casting decisions with legacy characters.

JPL may rise with scene partners like Koslow and Aniston and Marstolf. That's the sphere he needs to be in. If he's not and it's a Shawn and Belle and Philip retread he'll be dead in the water.

Agree. Kyle Brandt WAS pretty wretched. Lovely to look at, perhaps, but definitely mediocre whenever it came to acting.

[SFK]

I wasn't watching DOOL back then but I do remember catching the show one day when he had lost his leg and was being fit for a prosthetic. (Wow, as I typed that the guy on the Net Zero commercial just said, "Without losing an arm or a leg!" I digress...) Anyway, I was shocked to see dude from Real World Chicago in a contract role, how random. Of course that's really not that random at all, unfortunately. How long did he last?

[AllMyDaysatGH]

You said so much w/this

I have never felt more embarrassed watching a video

[SFK]

I don't think I'll be able to walk through the candy aisle in CVS without saying "I always thought candy was supposed to be fun" ever again.

Was this a graphic novel or something? All of the feathered and furred soldiers remind me of comic book illustrations.

I want to eat that gumdrop tree Adam Carrington is making.

[All My Shadows]

Kyle Brandt was on DAYS for like three years? I want to say 02-05. He was Phillip when I started watching, so even though I know he's not an actor and shouldn't have tried to be one, I kinda have a soft spot for him. I wish he'd gone the RW/RR Challengd route instead.

[SFK]

Wow, that's longer than I imagined.

[Khan]

Actually, I thought he was on the show even longer than that. At least, that's how it felt at the time.

[YRBB]

OMG.

But agreed -- I completely understand the whole thing of having a soft spot for him, for some reason.

[Juliajms]

I couldn't be more shocked that Linda Grey is involved. WTF?

[koos]

Here's to hoping his acting is completely different here. Who am I kidding, though?
