Also today, Galen Gering (Rafe), Camila Banus (Gabi), Freddie Smith (Sonny), Chandler Massey (Will) and Wally Kurth (Justin) were removed from the contract cast, so the series regular count remains steady at 26 contract actors.

Members LondonScribe Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Gwen is staying. Thank goodness. Absolute riot. Emily O’Brien has been a fresh of breath air Please register in order to view this content (I know what I wrote lol) I suspect her shelf life is limited, though.

Members Gray Bunny Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Agreed. I know she wasn't well received during her Y&R run, but I enjoy her. Glad to see JKJ on contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Jana was a pretty annoying character who had wretched writing. She’s very talented. She definitely gives her scenes energy (and is very sexy), which is rare these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Great news! Tripp and Philip are needed on the canvas, and both Gwen and Allie have really given the show the spark that it lacked many times through the first half of the year. As for Claire, I don't have that much a problem with her but we'll see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members prefab1 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Exactly. EOB is terrific in this role, and hopefully (now that there's no longer a 10-month lag between filming and airtime) the writers will see that she's been well-received and make sure to keep her on as a perennial town troublemaker. There's also plenty of opportunity to flesh out her backstory (and maybe connect her to Xander and/or EJ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Jana was a fun character, but all the rewrites did the character in. I'm glad she's found a decent role on Days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pdm1974 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Happy with all of these although I was still hoping Bryan Datillo may have finally gotten a contract again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 I remember the character having something of a following, alongside the hate, until MAB and friends butchered her to try to prop up Chloe/Kevin. Or whoever the hell was in charge then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AlexElizabeth Posted September 10, 2020 Members Share Posted September 10, 2020 Great news all around, besides the new Claire. She's so dull. I'm especially happy, and surprised, about Gwen. She's been a great addition to the show.Insert other media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
