If #1 is GH and Either RDA or Steve Bond said no to returning then RECAST DAMNIT. Jeff hasnt been on screen in over 40 years and Jimmy Lee Holt over 35 years, these roles can and should be recast instead of holding story hostage. 

The thing is, though, I don't think - if it is either actor - they are holding the show hostage. As a matter of fact, in the case of Jeff Webber, RDA has made it plain more than once that he is done with Jeff. It's TPTB that think some miracle will occur and RDA will miraculously change his mind.

OG MacGyver has probably provided him a good enough nest egg where he doesn't need GH anymore. So I blame those in charge, not the actor who has already made his stance clear.

They must have asked RDA 10-20 times in the last 30 years. There's no reason to expect him to return.

I bet both MacGyver and Stargate SG1 has kept RDA going good for years financially.

At this point recast Jeff with a Soap Vet in his 60's or 70's and keep it moving.

RDA already said no to returning to GH years ago, I doubt his stance would have changed to where they asked him again lol. 

Heck he said no to appearing on the new(now canceled) MacGyver, I think he's just outright retired

Now that I'm still about it...I wonder if it's the bold. 

 

I'm still catching up, but they still have not shown who was watching Maxie and Austin. But it IS someone Austin knows in Protuck. So maybe Jimmy Holt isn't dead.

I think it was either Richard Dean Anderson for Elizabeth's story or Steve Bond's for Austin hence why we're getting this story with Austin slightly being shadier than before.
