They should test JPL with Christopher Sean...LOL

JKJ hasn't filmed anything in 3 years (a movie he filmed in 2012 was released this year) so he's probably available.  Did they not ask him back?

Oh dear….from being called a superstar to being paired with CS…..tragic….

...for CS...

Woof.

The way JPL's hair is styled does remind me of how JKJ had his hair

NBC must be trolling us with this sh!t. 

LMAO! Soap superstar? That hair? Baaaaaaaaaaaaarf.

Well Tomlin and Cartooni spent so many years trying to sell him as a superstar, this must make them proud

 

At least he LOOKS like Phillip/ a Kiriakis. I wonder if they'll be putting him in story with Belle and Shawn.

To me he doesn't look like anything but a dehydrated Jacob Young.

Ummm…comparing JPL to JY?? JPL is not even in JY league…..LOL …not even close.

That's why I said "dehydrated." If you leave Jacob Young in the desert for a week, you get that old bag.

…he was with an old bat…I mean bag……..I cringe to think how his acting will be on Days. Days isn't known for great acting but JPL is really going to stink up the place.

Thats basically the same look JKJ had too though.

 

They were good to not have him talking in this because I am cringing at the thought of how he'd turn the simplest of lines hammy on OLTL. I hope he's been away long enough to tone down the lip smacking, eye blinking and just all around camp. Phillip is not that kind of character, those kind of ticks aren't going to work.

LMAO - what. Also now Philip looks older than the already-too-old Brady. Mess

JKJ wasn't my type but I thought he had a certain classical style, sort of like Grant Aleksander. JPL just looks like he's going down that Jack Wagner road, which is a frightening place to be.

 

I will say I don't think he'll be any worse than most of the other cast members in his age range, but the show can't afford to just have more grindingly mediocre/sometimes heinously godawful hires, and this isn't even someone they hired hoping he would improve - this is someone they clearly believe is a huge get. 

It's mindboggling.
