Members Soapsuds Posted July 5, 2021 Members Share Posted July 5, 2021 None lasted that long. Mealor was Kyle the longest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted July 5, 2021 Author Members Share Posted July 5, 2021 Kyle has always been such an undeveloped character from the get go. The only thing I remember about Blake Hood was he was always shirtless and came off as too old for the role. Sawyer’s Kyle had that semi-decent rivalry with Noah before that was dropped. Lachlan always looked nice but his Kyle had zero personality and lasted less than a year. At least Lachlan is doing okay with Dynasty these days. Mealor’s Kyle has been all over the place. He’s turned into a very generic character. Remember when his “very horrible secret” turned out to be a big bust about nothing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted July 5, 2021 Members Share Posted July 5, 2021 Mealor always seemed, like, spring-loaded or something. I felt tension in his expressions and mannerisms, and his almost overly-enunciated delivery. Yet, he also lacked energy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted July 6, 2021 Members Share Posted July 6, 2021 I doubt Summer will be recast. Keep your hate to yourselves, but they'll hold the part. Just like the last time while she was on Life in Pieces. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted July 7, 2021 Members Share Posted July 7, 2021 I think the loss of Hunter King and Michael Mealor, by far IMHO the best Kyle ever, are HUGE losses to Y&R. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members xtr Posted July 13, 2021 Members Share Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) I'm going to miss Michael. He is my favorite of the young adult Kyle's. I wonder if they will have him go find Summer and reunite with her offscreen. I also wonder if they will end up recasting this character.

Members Soapsuds Posted July 13, 2021 Members Share Posted July 13, 2021 Let's hope not. They'll hire another hunk which I don't mind but they'll still not know how to write for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted July 13, 2021 Members Share Posted July 13, 2021 The character has been a never-ending mess in the casting department since SORASing the role. Granted, in terms of talent, Michael Mealor was there... but, I'm over casting the model-turned-actor type that west coast soaps are stuck relying on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted July 13, 2021 Members Share Posted July 13, 2021 I hope we get a better recast. I know that’s asking a lot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dio Posted July 13, 2021 Members Share Posted July 13, 2021 lol, bye! The show tried very hard to make the younger set happen and failed miserably. It was very dumb how they had these 20-somethings in CEO positions in these businesses. I hope Devon swoops in and steals Jabot in a hostile take over. I know it won't happen, but whatever. Kyle's entire storyline should have been used on Noah, and they should have also pulled the Victor/Adam stuff and merged that with Noah as well - Victor grooming Nick's son to take over the family business and it causing drama between Nick, Victoria, Victor, and Nicki would have been better and the SL wouldn't have had any of the Adam baggage. and they could have had Kyle around just being a mini-Brad, sleeping with all the older women (and men, even - make him sexually fluid) and disappointing his pops, etc. what they went for was trite and just not very interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted July 13, 2021 Members Share Posted July 13, 2021 Michael Mealor was the best Kyle to date. Pretty good. The writing was the problem, NOT the acting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted July 13, 2021 Members Share Posted July 13, 2021 Your opinion. I was never a fan of his portrayal from day one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
