Members Liberty City Posted June 19 Author Members Share Posted June 19 I completely get your POV on this... it was a casting 180 for me from Christopher to Barash. I think Stefan was meant to be built more European in terms of his appeal, and the Days of Our Lives equivalent of Nikolas Cassadine. Christopher was just more mysterious in the role, and I liked that appeal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 Lilley would have been AWESOME as Belle! MM is just so boring to me, but whatever. I want Marlena/John's kid to be cool and MM is just the blandest of bland. I do think she's a decent actress though. I'll consider GT as Belle. Cassie just feels like the easiest Kate child to recast. AT didn't make a huge impression or anything and you could easily find someone new. She's the right age to be in the mix with Sarah, Xander, Brady, Eric, etc and I feel like she's the least defined Kate child. But also the least important. GT for Cassie!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 I just do not see the appeal of BB. I cannot stand Stefan & his little porn stache. Now, DanF is a good actor & very appealing, if you ask me. Of course, and I cannot explain this, but I actually liked Jake. So, of course, they killed him, quick as could be. I do not put Stefan & EJ in the same category, ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 I think Chad being set up up by Ben, and that part of the Ben/Abby/Chad story is what brought the excitement for the pairing. When that was over and done with, there wasn't much more to do with the pairing. Stefan/DID was both offensive and a mess. Chad would've been well suited as a playboy of sorts, who may or may not have an attraction to Will (bisexual playboy perhaps? lol). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 Well tbf, BB was an emergency recast so I imagine that there wasn't much time for production to spend on the casting process and just thought that a name would help. Casey's Chad definitely gave off that vibe sometimes 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 I also do not have your problem with MM. Someone said that GT is happy on the East coast, so that may be a problem for all of us GT fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted June 19 Author Members Share Posted June 19 Tognoni would be Billie Reed. No ifs, ands or buts about it. She is Billie Reed for me. From what I've read: Cassie was not a well-liked character, and it's actually a shame Kyle Lowder did not work out long-term as Rex, because that was smart casting that should have worked out. And again, Tognoni for Billie. Of course I take that into consideration, and even in his brief original stint, I did appeal to Barash as Stefan... but again, it was also material written for Christopher, so that I understand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 Super fair to say. I think Days was like both were on GH? Cool. I do think BB has really great chemistry with CB so I can see why they kept him. She's gone now, so I don't see a reason now lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 And just to think, if there had been no chemistry between him and Camila Banus/Gabi, we probably wouldn't even be having this conversation right now Please register in order to view this content Please register in order to view this content We'll have to see if there's any chemistry 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members carolineg Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 My MM hate is pretty long standing and won't change. She's just not what I want for John/Marlena's daughter although I do think she's a decent actress and looks the part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted June 19 Author Members Share Posted June 19 If only Banus had just stayed gone the first time she left... we would've been freed from so much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 I can tell upfront that I'm gonna have a bad attitude about this recast. Camila to me WAS Gabi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 Ehhh... I'll try to keep an open mind about it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted June 19 Author Members Share Posted June 19 I know I'll already like her better even though I hate Gabi. I hated Banus as an actor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted June 19 Members Share Posted June 19 I thought she was a good actress. For me, the biggest problem was Gabi constantly going back and forth between being a young, sometimes grey, heroine and being a heartless sociopath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
