I agree she was miscast as Phyllis, but if it's the writing can you really blame the actress? Speaking of Phyllis, I still think Jamie Luner or Jennifer Bransford would have been great, especially Jennifer Bransford. She's got that same kind of harsh look and does bitch very well, and unpopular opinion, she's more likeable than Michelle Stafford.

I think Gina Tognoni did good as Phyllis, but agree Jamie Luner would probably have been better. Jennifer Bransford is a terrible actress.   She was bad as ONE LIFE's Georgie, got on my nerves.  She was horrible as Carly on GH (Talk about miscasting), and will go down as one of the worst actresses ever on soaps and tv IMHO, right up there with the terrible Belle re-cast Charity Rahmer.

I was trying to remember if I saw Jennifer Bransford as Carly & recall if I knew her from anything & then you said "One Life's Georgie" & bells & whistles went off!! DingDing We have a winner. She was awful! Has she continued to get work?! I guess I thought she probably faded away.

Amelia Heinle as Victoria. If they can't get Heather Tom back on Y&R they could've tried for an actress with more attitude and spunk along time ago.they could've tried for an actress with more attitude and spunk along time ago.

The Bold and the Beautiful(B&B) Thorne Forester, Kristen Forrester Domiguez, Felicia Forrester, Rick Forrester, RJ Forrester, Jack Marone and Owen Knight

General Hospital(GH) Dillon Quartermaine, Lucky Spencer, Lulu Spencer Falconeri, Serena Baldwin, Christina Baldwin, Emma Drake, Sarah Webber, Steven Lars "Steve" Webber, Keesha Ward,  Maya Ward, Tom Hardy, Simone Ravelle Hardy and Tom Hardy, Jr.

The Young and the Restless(Y&R)Fenmore Baldwin, Patty Williams, Katie Abbott, Christian Newman, Lucy Romalotti, Heather Stevens, Malcolm Winters, Mari Jo Mason, Harmony "Yolanda" Hamilton and Ana Hamilton 

Hot take:  Y&R should really consider recasting Jill.  With Tucker being de-aged a little, Jill should be too since they were supposed to be born on the same day.  Plus, Jess is semi-retired and is not coming back to full-time.

Someone like Vanessa Marcil as nu-Jill to fit with TSJ's Tucker?

Hahaha - totally realistic with the recent regimes. Lol

i always think that Jess Walton would love to play the right material. Filming 4-5 episodes per months in a week or so would be doable. With a commute from Oregon. Not using her is budget related and shows the long road deep down Y&R has taken with the character since 2004…

They shouldn't have de-aged Tucker then because it's ridiculous that they're supposed to be the same age.

It's not like she was the only person to play the role.  Plus I doubt she'd want to come back for a long-ish stint between retirement and the state of soap-writing in general.  Let her retire in peace.

Yeah. I would have gone with maybe Grant Aleksander for Tucker. I could see that as a fit.

Meh. People obsess over age in soaps a bit too much in today's day and age. Do I think Trevor St. John was miscast? Kind of, especially when other options were available, but he's working in the role right now, and that's what matters.

I wonder if Grant would've been up for being away from home for so long. I guess Sherry could go with him. Anyway, if he were interested you could never go wrong with him. Class act. Very good at whatever he does. This is all spec talk, anyway. The role is cast.

That's true. I'm not mad either way. It's not like the character will go anywhere.

It is a good day to be ... not mad!
