I love Ted King. Cool that they’re making Finn biracial. (Is that Tanner Novlan’s background?) Maybe they’re not gonna kill him off just yet (although Bradley’s ADD is notorious).

i see what u did there Bradley! 😏

I'm going to have to start watching B&B again.

Funny how he has a son name Finn.

I'm glad to see Ted King back on soaps again. I enjoy him as an actor. I'm glad they are bringing Finn's parents to town and I wonder what type of backstory he will have. Reports are saying it's "dramatic".  

Perfect casting. Ted King is a great choice. 

EW says that Naomi Matsuda will play Finn's mother "Li". 

 

EW, IMDB, and several other websites are *erroneously* stating that Matsuda played Tori Narita (Paul's mother) on Days.

But Matsuda never aired.  Matsuda was cast as Tori, and began fiming in the role, and was in NBC spoiler pics, but she never aired.  The role was recast shortly after she began filming.  She never appeared on Days.

 

Tori Narita was played by Hira Ambrosino during the entirety of the character's run on air.

Thanks for the clarification because I was like this woman looks different than the woman who played Paul's mother. 

OOOO Ted King 😍 Loved him as Lorenzo Alcazar on GH.

Me too!  But how soon before he's diving in Brooke's sewage?  Destiny #58?

I hope he at least gets chem-test with Heather Tom. It's time for Katie to get someone new in her life that isn't Bill who is eventually going to creep back to Brooke...

No offense to KKL who is still a fine-looking lady, but Naomi Matsuda looks so beautiful, elegant and glowy in the press shot! I would love if B&B actually wrote for an Asian-American character like an actual, you know, human being, but Brad doesn't even do that for his existing cast, so that may be too much to ask.

 

As for Ted King, he has always exuded a very sexy and cerebral presence. Honestly, he was too good for the second-fiddle role they gave him on GH, so I'm not sure if I want to see his character play second fiddle to Bill and Ridge (which he will inevitably do).

I do hope at least one of Finn's parents is in the fashion or publishing industry so they will be able to mix it up with other members of the canvas outside of Finn/Steffy.

Huhm. How bad must she have been if she started filming and the footage was left on the floor, especially with how budget-conscious DAYS is?
