Members Juliajms Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Wow. I can only imagine the happy dance some of you are doing right now. So maybe he really is being replaced by Jason Thompson. Whoever they get I hope it works because the character is becoming a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 I still don't think JT is right for Billy Abbott, but he'll be better than Reverend Kane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Burgess was totally wrong for the part. He was way too old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Ughh.......Why just put Billy to rest entirely..........no more recasts!!! and another plastic surgery arc???.....zzzzzzzzzz and honestly I might have been happy with Thompson as Billy, if he wasn't already recast over 50 times....

Members Soapsuds Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 They should have stuck with David Tom. He was perfectly fine as Billy. There was no need to recast with Burgess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members detroitpiston Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 He was one of the most blatant examples of a seat filler recast I've ever seen, I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did. Off to low budget Canadian Lifetime original movies where you belong Burgess! I welcome Jason Thompson. Come on, David Tom sucked his last run, his only saving grace was his chemistry with his co stars but that can only take you so far when your acting is as horrible as his was. He needed to go just as much as this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 And Billy Miller was good? Pleases…he was awful….David Tom should have stayed….there are other actors that are much worse than Tom…like Ms. Bucktooth Victoria Newman recast….she has stunk up the place the entire time she has been there…..

Members YRfan23 Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 I feel like Tom was let go way too soon before getting a chance to really shine.....I wouldn't blame him if they did want him back and he refused, but I doubt they are even thinking of him.... Thompson would do a decent job, though I would hate having him deal with being called "BillyBoy" now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 I don't think that Jason is right for the role of Billy as I'll always only care for David Tom in the role. At least Grandpa Billy is gone! Now if they'd get rid of Paprika and Snorboria.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Thompson is a good actor but again a miscast as Billy….. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Jason Thompson is forgettable and stopped caring about his work years ago - perfect for most Billys over the years, sadly, with the exception of David Tom. Maybe if he'd never given a [!@#$%^&*] he'd still be there too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Doubt it. Wasn't there rumors that Amelie Heinle wanted him out b/c she missed Billy Miller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Yes, she made that pretty clear. I was joking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
