YR: Actress MIGHT be out..?

[dragonflies]

Ugh

 

 

[David_Vickers]

 I hope to God that Mishael Morgan does NOT leave again.  IF she does, I predict Y&R recasts Amanda with Karla Mosley permanently. 

[Faulkner]

For me, she almost singlehandedly makes the show, in spite of the poorly executed introduction of her family. They need to pay her all the money.
 

I would love a behind-the-scenes exposé on Y&R. The show is about as Dollar General as it gets, and they continue to strip it down. I can’t imagine someone like Melody Thomas Scott is long for this world on that show.

[Liberty City]

Not surprised.

[Vee]

Not bringing back Hilary was deliberate to keep her in her place and I always said so!

[DRW50]

 

Likely followed by her barely appearing. 

[LondonScribe]

They probably have that in reserve, thinking they have that as leverage, or rather they have no sense of needing to keep her.

 

If they let her walk again, I don’t think they’ll get her back this time, neither will they deserve to. Also, if she wanted to stay in soaps, General Hospital has a better (if very bustling) canvas of actors and they seem to treat their black actors well. Personally, I think she’s talented and charismatic enough to do regular prime time. 
 

Also, something must be going on at Y&R, what with this and the rumoured contract issues with Hunter King and Michael Mealor.

It’s weird what’s going on with Y&R and these casting choices. Even going back to Chance. I didn’t like the actor, but he was front burner and clearly they had story planned for him, but he still hasn’t been recast. Then you now have 3 front burner characters that may be out as well? That’s odd.
 

You can tell watching they’re going through the motions. You can’t see any passion for any particular character or storyline. I feel like that’s why they’re so quick to let these actors go, because they don’t care. They’ll just shift the focus elsewhere in another thrown together, boring storyline. 

[titan1978]

Didn’t they lowball Josh Morrow, Sharon Case, and Melody in the early to mid 2000’s, causing all three to not sign contracts and stop airing for a period of time?  What happens with their contract negotiations?  
 

She deserves everything she is asking for.  Even if her new character isn’t as strong, she is still great and they desperately need actors making their bland Y&R material have some spark.

[Faulkner]

Karla’s a good actress and maybe she’d need time to find her sea legs as Amanda, but she just isn’t in Mishael’s league. There’s no comparison to how the Amanda scenes played with KM versus MM. Karla just couldn’t get her mouth around the unnatural dialogue while Mishael makes it feel effortless and impassioned. Even the decent-to-passable actors cast as Amanda’s family can’t do it nearly as well as Mishael.

They have no clue what a goldmine they have in her.

[DramatistDreamer]

 

Listen, I said this the last time Y&R let her walk. 

 

Loren Lott is beginning to find solid work with projects with real buzz. Morgan can absolutely do the same.

[Taoboi]

Yeeeeah this is not sitting well with me.

 

I agree...what is going on over there?

[janea4old]

Karla Mosley is due to give birth July 5th.  It would be her call as to how/when/where she starts working again.

[LondonScribe]

And good for her.

 

That remains one of the most ridiculous decisions made, and one that still annoys me greatly to this day.

[Taoboi]

Same.

 

I was so happy to see Devon having his family back...especially since I was a regular watcher during the Ana days.

 

So disappointed.
