Members NothinButAttitude Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Different strokes for different folks. I thought he was handsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 David Tom was awful when he returned. No sex appeal or charisma. I love Jason Thompson he is sexy and a great actor. He was very popular on GH. Jill never forgets her buddies she discovered Jason and sge went after him hard. I am sure Jason is making more money.

Members edgeofnik Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 After the DT debacle, it became clear that AH has something along the lines of HK (but far bigger) that gives her disproportionate power and leverage on Y&R. David Tom did the best he could. ITA that they didn't give the MCE pairing the time it deserved. And, guess what? Bacteria is NOT the end game for most of us. BJ eventually grew on me - mainly these past couple of months. Honestly, I do hope those 'plastic' surgery rumors are false - enough! (Plus, the audience is used to Billy recasts - aren't we on #6 actor now (7th adult casting since Tom counts for two)? I just rather have them get BM back and put an end to it.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Y&R needs to rest the character as they don't know what they're doing with it and haven't known in quite some time. You cannot cast a character when you don't know the character. You can't rely and an actor to provide the character, the actor portrays the character. A character should be built on revelation through story, not by an actor's grinning, shuckin' and jivin' or any number of acting tics and machinations that I've seen on this show over the last eight years. It seems as though Y&R has forgotten how to write and develop a character who is not a Newman by birth, so just rest the character for awhile until they figure out how to write Billy because they haven't done a good job writing anything that didn't involved Billy falling into the gutter in a very long time.

Members dragonflies Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 I hate to wish him to lose his job but he was miscast from the get go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Killer Filler Griller Miller isn't needed or wanted as Billy. He can take his smirking to his under five primetime occasional appearances.His best role was Richie on AMC. He's been smirking it in ever since!!

Members Khan Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Same. I realize Billy is an Abbott and Jill's son, but I'm beginning to think it would be best for everyone just to call it a day with this character. Either kill him off or send him away to the Sandy Horton Home for Unworkable Soap Opera Characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Now he can go spend his Social Security checks at Tar-jay... I still think he would have made a good recast Cole,,,just not Billy "Boy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 And I wouldn't have minded seeing BJ as Chuckie Roulland or whatever name he'd go by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Better suited age wise. Jenkins is a decent actor, he just wasn't Billy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ponds Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 He has actually grown on me. I think he physically looks like he could be Peter Bergman's brother. I also don't think he would have looked so old to people if he hadn't replaced David Tom, who looks years younger than his age. JT is a good actor and nice to look at, but no way should he be cast as Billy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted October 31, 2015 Members Share Posted October 31, 2015 Please register in order to view this content You're the same one that sits on here on repeat claiming that Jean writes 'smart TV' when an actual smart person knows that Jean hasn't produced an ounce of smart TV in her life. I agree. He would've been better cast as anyone BUT Billy. Cole would've been the better choice as he would've been in Snoreboria's orbit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
