Some suggested she would be a good Mac recast on Y&R and I actually agree. I don't want to see her go to DAYs, but hey as long as she's getting those coins!

Really? I can't see that in any way, unless he idea is to completely change the character and just stick the name Mac on her. Mac was never supposed to be the cutest, tiniest most stereotypical "feminine" girl in the room. Just the opposite.  Becky is pretty much the anti Mac as far as I can see. I'm sure if Y&R really wants her they could come up with a more fitting role for her.

Nah she shouldn't have. That should NLG or even monotone KeMo. At least Becky makes an effort to act unlike 96% of the GH cast


Liz always gets shat on to prop others like Sam or Jason or Nik or Lucky and this has gone one for over 10 years.

which is exactly why the character of Elizabeth should have been retired. She hasnt worked in years and it would have been refreshing to see Becky in a new role instead of this dried up one which has gone nowhere. I dont see how any fan of hers can like whats been done with her the past 5 years. Everything surrounding Liz has been a hot mess of fail 

*Cue the folks wanting DAYS to cast her as Sarah Horton*

Yup! :P

 

But as @Cheap21 said, I'll settle for a Cassie recast too. Just let her be a legacy character and not some new, underdeveloped character a la Serena. :wacko:

legacy characters are the only females Days seems to semi be able to get right. Every new female under the age of 40 thats introduced is DOA. Serena, Madison, Paige, Jordan, Lani....Im sure Im missing someone

Well Lani is considered a legacy character now too since she is Abe's illegitimate. Same with Paige too, who was Shane's granddaughter. I think Paige started to become interesting when she became a b-tch in the end; however, they quickly turned her back to being saccharine and then killed her off. But I agree that female legacy characters are the only ones that are done semi right. Stress on semi b/c Theresa is written as a hot ass mess that's been declawed. 

 

I do agree now that Liz should be retired. Poor Liz/Becky Herbst has been in limbo for the past 10+ years. Her stories have been the same--either trapping a man via a lie or having kids. They never give Liz any other type of material. I kind of wanna see Becky take the leap. 

I dont consider them legcacy characters. Lani and Paige were both newly created characters that came out of nowhere. Paige's connections were retconned in months after she debuted and she was already a flunk by then. The only people she interacted with as part of said legacy were recast Eve and Kimberly. Shane never returned and all the Bradys treated her like a stranger. And Abe? Being related to him is no better than random extra #32. We see how that family has been handeld

I'd rather see RH on B&B as a cousin of Quinn's or something. Even a Forrester. Who could she play on B&B?

Bridget or maybe even a wild oat of Eric's?

Not random extra #32!!! :lol: Sad but true.

It tells you how little GH values Liz/RH. I mean her father is MIA. as is her mother/sister. Sam gets a dad/mom/sisters. Julian gets a daughter..and even Franco gets retconned parents UGH

DAYS? LOL, good luck. DAYS is not exactly a path for long-term work stability for anyone right now.

The sad part is that Liz is the last link to Steve Hardy. If Liz is gone we have what no nurses on the show.

Nope. Can't be Sarah Horton.  Rebecca Herbst played an HIV+ girl back on World AIDS Day back in June 1996. And DAYS would *NEVER* recycle an actor for a new role! Never!

This doesn't sound like real news.  "Actress in negotiations still negotiating" is what it sounds like to me.   DC has always been this big Rebecca Herbst fan domain so it makes sense they would headline anything about her.    She is a decent soap actress who can adequately deliver crying and other soap fare, but the Liz role was wrecked years ago when they turned her into this brood mare and now all that is left for this character are scenes discussing children.   Compound that with the character destruction that always ensues when a female falls for Jason, and there you go.

I will be different and say bring back Neil's other daughter Noelle Curtis to the canvas. No ties to any of the families in Salem and can safely date anyone.
