Members Chris B Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 This is an exciting announcement! The more we learn, the more real it is starting to feel. Also, while these aren't names known to daytime, I do love that so many of these actors have worked on popular Black projects. That's going to help bring in their fanbases who watch the soaps on streaming and BET, but may not immediately want to watch a daytime soap. We still have quite a few names to be announced so I'm sure we'll have some more big names coming, but I love that we have a lot of new blood as well. Let them make their own stars like many of the other soaps did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BetterForgotten Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 He seems to have a lot of natural charisma, and he's sexy as hell. I hope it translates well on-screen, and his acting is sufficient. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vanguard Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 Yes. I may question a few things here and there but I think this is going to be an interesting ensemble overall. A chance to see some we know mixing with some we don't, or at least we're less familiar with. And yep, I still think Real Andrews is "Patrick". COME ON NOW!!!!

Members Liberty City Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 I *believe* this is how characters lined up from the casting breakdowns to the casting announcement: Sam > Ted Richardson Marcus > Martin Richardson Allison > Katherine "Kat" Richardson Armand > Andre Hamilton Joseph > Bill Hamilton Jillian > Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne Cheryl > Chelsea Hamilton Elizabeth > Hayley Lawson Dana "Leslie" Thomas Kate > Eva Thomas 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vanguard Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 The character "Stacy" is missing so far. Described as a successful real estate gal in a loveless marriage. She no longer loves or shares intimacy with her husband but she has lots of fun with other people, so to speak. Ahem! Where is she? Interestingly, the original character description stàted that her husband felt the same way. I remember sizing them up as Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Liberty City Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 Not the only one missing. These characters are missing: Patrick, a retired Senator, described as "gentle, humble, and generous", husband of Betty, holding a family secret Stacy, owns a real estate agency which specializes in luxury properties Courtney, a charmingly intense woman who experiences a "chance encounter" that triggers suppressed feelings connected to the death of her husband Diane, described as a bit of a mystery, with "two faces," with a plan to "righting a grievous wrong" Luis, a personal trainer at the Fairmont Estates Country Club, who has his eye on one of the married women who lives in the gated community Rick, a fireman who is described as fearless David, a descendant of a family of law enforcement officials, known to get too personally invested in his cases Tomas "Tom" Hernandez, a "confident" attorney Mike, high-powered law partner to Joseph, who has been accused of "sexual impropriety in the workplace" Plus, Marcus' unnamed husband. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vanguard Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 I think I remember "David" as a police officer husband to one of the daughters of either Nicole or Dani. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 "David" was the husband of "Sara," a.k.a. Dani. The other roles are lined up here for the breakdown vs. announcement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 No, "most viewers" DON'T want the "fictional drama and escapism" from reality that soaps are presently giving us. You've mentioned anemic ratings more than once. Are you listening to yourself? No one wants or expects scenes revolving around Kamala Harris or other real politicians. Still, it'd be nice to have a soap that doesn't purposely avoid mentioning politics or politicians. Instead we get political races where no one is part of a party. No one stands for anything. It all comes off as fake as hell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vanguard Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 I thought that was "Joseph" as Dani's two-timing district attorney ex-husband. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted October 25, 2024 Members Share Posted October 25, 2024 (edited) Joseph is marrying the woman he had an affair with, and that is Bill marrying Hayley. Per the casting breakdown: "Joseph, an attorney who is engaged to Elizabeth following their affair" "Elizabeth, a paralegal, engaged to Joseph following an extra martial affair" "Sara" in the breakdowns was always referred to as the ex-wife of "Joseph," and "Sara" became Dani. But the breakdown for "Joseph" lines up more with Bill Hamilton, Nicole's ex-husband. They could have SWAPPED the backstory, or Soap Hub mis-reported who "Joseph" was the ex-husband of.
