LMAO...this show hasn't a F**KING clue, on what to do with their YOUNG cast....

Well, he was a Sally hire and Mal has dropped them all except for Dina (his pet Alzheimer's story) and Tessa (too much backlash at this point to drop her) so no surprise there.

 

Keeping Reed on means he'd have to develop a story and that would probably mean at least one new character in that age group and Mal wants to keep it lean and focussed on the vets.

Lawd.....what a waste!  It's hard to invest on new characters that have talent when writers don't know what or how to write for them. This is why soaps are dying. They can't write for the next generation.

 

Kyle won't last longer either.

Good, he's awful.  The show has a terrible track record with casting of the young and restless legacy kids.  Remember Mac2 and Philip Jr. during MAB's years?  How many hair models have played Kyle?  And Adamson in pivotal role of Noah.  Terrible. This might be a good sign.  Now get rid of the twins.

Ha..they are the worse. Now who are they going to hang out with?

Quite a waste. He was a good actor IMHO and I liked him with Mattie.  I thought SS did that story fairly right. I mean when had the focus been on teens. 

 

Heck, they don't have to make new characters.  They at least had some recurring teens to use. 

 

 

How could this be???   I just was telling others how I though he looked so good yesterday??? WHY? I loved his chemistry with Victoria and also Mattie....


What is wrong with this crew? How could they let him go? This is upsetting as he was a perfect fit IMO...

Honestly, the show had done nothing with Reed, Mattie or Charlie. That is bad.

Considering what's about to happen to his dad, this seems like a bad choice IMO. 

Not surprised. Mattie, Charlie and Reed turned into day players when Mal took over. Even though Reed grew up with JT and should’ve been vital to this story they still didn’t use him. Sad news because I do think he fit well. 

So they soras'd Lily's children for nothing. 

From Soapdom: 

 

Say goodbye to Reed! Tristan Lake Lebeau tape his last scenes with Y&R on March 23rd! After JT's horrific death, Reed says goodbye to Victoria and Mattie and leaves Genoa City to go find himself. Mattie may follow after Reed. In the meantime, Reed's decision will leave Victoria a devastated mess!

What do you wanna bet that Reed will come back within a year, played by an older (and hunkier) actor, and he'll be edgier and

out to avenge his father's death

?

Or at least one of 'em.  Doesn't matter which one.

Played by Thad Luckinbill.

Not surprised. I wouldn't be surprised if the actors playing the twins are next. 

 

The story for Reed was all over the place from start. And the story they should've played with Reed/Mattie, which was Cane v. Victoria against their kids dating, was scrapped. Instead, Cane went back to chasing after Lily again and Victoria starting having headaches and shacking up with JT. 

 

Sad that a show that is supposed to be centered around YOUNG characters can't even write for them nowadays. Bill Bell is spinning in his grave...
