Members Vee Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 (edited) John, you don't know this man like that. Every actor the show just hired and we found out about 24 hours ago is not a friend. This is just an actor on a TV show. I don't care if anyone on this show is hired or fired if they don't have a viable role to play that makes sense. I don't see any need for Jagger to return to the show, let alone played by a guy who looks nothing like Jagger. So yeah, I'm fine with him being gone.

Members Contessa Donatella Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 I just think y'all should stop torturing @carolineg !!! Honestly I just went by my reaction to him on the screen. Nothing more. Nothing less. I wasn't in love with him but I also did not have a problem with him. Right, that's not some glowing recommendation. It just is, neutral, beige, so boring if you wish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members titan1978 Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 (edited) It’s two things for me- a random name from the past to create fake nostalgia/familiarity for the audience that has near zero connection to the current show (see Jackie Templeton recast, and name dropping Jimmy Lee for Austin), and also the clear whitewashing. That’s two strikes. It’s not the actor’s fault, it’s the casting by the show. And it should not happen. And I give zero [!@#$%^&*] about ASJ or Jagger.

Members Vee Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 (edited) It's so basic too. I'm supposed to lose my mind because Jagger is back? It's a real Star Wars "Glup Shitto" moment. Edited February 3 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 I can't recall who said it, but it's so true: they could have hired Adam Harrington to play nuJax instead. At least Jax still has connections on the canvas that could shake up storylines in meaningful ways. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 I don't see any need for Jax to be back at present either tbh. But Ingo was iconic in the role for so many years and you'd need to find someone both strong and hot, and authentically Aussie; an older Dan Feuerriegel would've worked. (No Daniel Goddard!) Still, what would be the point? Jax has had little utility for over a decade - like Jagger, it would just become "Jax is back". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members titan1978 Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 (edited) Exactly! His child is dating a mob enforcer. His ex-wife is dating a cardboard cutout. He has stuff to do right away! I felt Jax was played out ages ago. But at least he has a real connection on the current show. Truthfully I don’t want any more of these bland people onscreen.

Members Liberty City Posted February 4 Author Members Share Posted February 4 OMFG! I HATE THIS SO MUCH! Like, let's be consistent, y'all! Reminds me of Celine Dion vs. Céline Dion. Not as crazy but still... haha. Consistency y'all! Yup. As well as some primetime series or films, haha. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 That's what I thought. I wonder if this is not a false dichotomy & Jagger is not ethnic. The OG portrayer just was but the character was not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
