Y&R New Promo:"Games go too Far" (with Jason Thompson as Billy)

[YRBB]

 

Get out. Bye.

 

 

Actually, thinking about it, he is a male from GH... so he just might do well, in terms of perks, salary and accommodations..... Naturally, the writing won't be a part of it.

 

 

Seriously! At the very least, give him a good cut and dye his hair to match the look of the damn character. This is why (one of the reasons) daytime is considered inferior. You don't just allow someone to saunter in, looking nothing like an established character of almost TWO decades just because he is supposedly a star. On every TV series, every movie, the actors change their look to match the character. Why are these bitches allowed to just walk in as if they just woke up and, poof, that's it!?

Well, it's official- Y&R has definitely turned its back on youth.  Thompson looks as old as BJ.

I was also wondering if anyone watching recognizes the name. They may from mags and such. This reception reminds me of the one SBu had on the talk...confetti and all. 

 

I've never seen his work myself but I know who he is. 

[AllMyDaysatGH]

He looks 57 years old

 

Pretty embarrassing promo (and song). LOL.

[Cheap21]

Noah and Adam look the same age

[YRBB]

 

Yes, and? lol

[Khan]

At this rate, the next one to play Billy will be Lane Davies.

[Cheap21]

its just odd to see bc the last Adam looked older than Nick

[YRBB]

lol I never thought of that. He did look like he was in his 50s. At least, this time, they actually got it right, for once.

[Soapsuds]

JT would have been great during the William Bell years not so much at all now.

[Khan]

Frankly, the more I look at JT, the more I wish he'd been cast as Cole Howard instead.

[DeeeDee]

JT lacks the screen presence to be Cole.

[slick jones]

I like JT, but I just don't think BillyAbbott is the right role. I agree with Khan about Cole, maybe a Brooks/Foster, even Philip IV...maybe.

[Khan]

I think JT lacks screen presence, period.  But if JFP just had to drag his ass onto this show....

[sheilaforever]

Exactly. This is ridiculous! They could make a promo about ERIC BRAEDEN, MELODY THOMAS SCOTT or JESS WALTON and people who watch CBS at least would take notice. But these kind of promos for such non-stars???  Think again!
