Oh please...VW is replaceable.  Their have been worst recasts in age etc etc ....so having MM play Dru wouldn't have been a big deal....just sayin....LOL

 

VR!!!!!!!

 

And MM has time to put in before she can pull off a Dru, and most importantly, does she look like she can pass for Lily's mother?  That's super important!

Lily is awful...well the actress is...recast her too....LOL

Just look at the sh it fest casting.....

 

Billy looks way too old.....they have never gotten the recast correct...they should have kept David Tom...the reason DT didn't work the second time was because of the writing and AH as Victoria...she sucks and her pairings are awful.

Victoria looks like an old bag lady....

 

just to name a few

Sorry but LOL at the idea of MM being a Dru recast. You're joking right? I mean, I would have totally bought her as a Lily recast but DRU? ........

 

MM may be a good actress but she's nothing compared to VR.. she doesn't have the same grit and creativity that VR did. I just don't think the two can be compared. Beyond them having similar skin tones, what makes them similar? Just curious.

 

Hilary has been giving me life so far and the past couple episodes hasn't made me view her as a one-note character or villain. I think these writers are going to invest in her.

Okay let's say VR is replaceable. You honestly think a 30 year old would've been the perfect choice to play the role of Dru. Mind you, MM was in her mid-20s when she joined the show. You don't think that would have been a stretch?

Well AH as Victoria is a joke too...and she is still there. She has sucked the life out of Victoria and her costars.

 

As I said there has been so many worst recasts in soap history.

This Lily and Cane do nothing for me. They are taking up space.

It sounds like the show is the same old same old like what happened right after MAB took over - early hype and a quick return to the norm. I keep meaning to watch but it's difficult and unless there's sustained improvement I probably won't.

The first 2 or 3 episodes were great and now not so much. I'll give them a few months and if its the same drivel then I won't watch again.

Well this is just my opinion, but the show is loads better. Every single character is finally acting in character. Characters actually have lives and occupations and interact with various people. People's motivations are a lot clearer. The dialogue is better. The show feels stabile again. I didn't like MAB or LML as writers but Pratt was who really gutted the show. With his writing, no character acted like themselves and it seemed like any character could be interchangeable, that's how bad it was for me. Now, I feel like I recognize these characters again, and they're not just there to be plot devices. And I get the sense that there will be actual storylines and not just fast-paced moments only meant for shock factor.

 

I loved all the episodes TBH.

This may be true but the same awful characters are being featured.
