It's so embarrassing watching this dude have lots of scenes grumbling about Sonny, Karen, etc. To say nothing of the utter futility of bringing Jagger back. Just run out whatever contract clock he has and send him away.

I don't see this as a character that should be on contract for longer than a 13 week cycle. I'm not dissing Harrington as an actor, but the character is John "Jagger" Cates in name only. As many have said, they could have cast him as a randomly named FBI Agent, or Sean Donely's son Connor, Sly Eckert, or any number of relations to legacy families. Like it or not, ASJ is still remembered as Jagger. His personal  statements have made ASJ radioactive. The character has sooooo few connections left on the canvas (Anna, Robert, Scotty, Sonny) and aside from being Stone's brother... meh.

 

I do think he'd have made a great Stephen Lars, which would have given Elizabeth a story not revolving around Dawgy Daddy.

He's a very mediocre performer so far IMO. He just sort of meandered through those scenes with Sonny tossing off clunky exposition about Karen, etc. whereas Mo actually half-woke up a bit (probably to intimidate the new actor, lol). It's all just so embarrassing.

It's nice if an actor is nice to people on social media, but that doesn't mean they should all be employed on the show.

I see he started laying the groundwork for Howarth's arrival as Sean Butler today.

 

Just kidding...   I hope.

He wasn't backstage when #firefrank was auditioning the Ford brothers on his casting couch, so unlike Howarth and Easton (maybe even Patrick Gibbons) I don't think he'll get another role once this one fizzles( coughs- already has- coughs)  so...

That's what I'm saying!  But, apparently, I'm the biggest [!@#$%^&*] of all time, because I happen to think a nice guy who is pulling down a paycheck is in fact all wrong for the role and should be released from his contract ASAP.
