BTG: March 2025 Discussion Thread

[dragonflies]

Sorry, didn't know!

Pulling recasts already is not a good look nor a good sign. Speaking of which, oh they definitely read these boards. This is the very guy that I had a photo of on here a good while back proposing him to play a Dupree son.......but instead. Smh.

When was the last time we saw that nosey ho! I love her!

[Chris B]

I saved this weeks episode and watched Monday and Tuesday last night with my mom and sister. For a mellow week, it was the perfect week to draw them in. They were completely confused about Dani and why she broke into Bill and Haley's house. Once I explained it to them they immediately went back to watch from the beginning. Her affair with Andre also helped seal the deal.

I just finished Wednesday's episode by myself and all in all I found it to be another strong week. I'm devasted by the fact that we only got 3 episodes but I'm enjoying the more calm pace the show has picked up. It doesn't feel slow but more relaxed to let you get a better feel for the characters. I find myself becoming invested in more characters as the weeks go by. 

Of course Eva/Kat is a rivalry that they could play for years and both actors are breakout stars. I'm fully invested in Martin and Smitty's household and the secrets both Martin and Tyrell hold. The scenes between Andre and Nicole this week went a long way to deepening his character beyond just his playboy ways. That actor is a great find for them. 

For their first full month they've done a good job of holding my interest the entire month. I can't recall the last time an American soap had me in a chokehold like this.

Recast are normal on Daytime soaps. Doesn't mean anything bad for BTG

March 10 was her last episodic appearance.

[Vanguardian53]

It still doesn't look good to me. Not this soon. The show isn't even one full month old yet.

That is way too long ago

Exactly! I just can't sometimes. 

[John]

BTG was 3 months ahead in filming when it premiered

[Vanguardian53]

I just can't sometimes either. I totally feel you. Let's hope it doesn't end up looking too much like Passions too soon. So many recasts it was like you were suddenly watching a different show. 

[Vee]

LMAO, they are not reading this board to get ideas. Sorry bro.

[Liberty City]

Omg, yes they are! They SO are! Come on, they have to be! The ideas are so fücking good! Cannot believe they're not using the amazing ideas.

[Vee]

To say nothing of the soaps that dumped actors before they could even air onscreen. And then there's the Irna Phillips era where the actor would appear, Irna would watch the show live and then call in and have them fired the same day.

There's almost certainly gonna be a lot more cuts or recasts to come, that's the nature of any new soap. While I'll miss MJ the replacement seems like a good actor, and several other cast changes can't come soon enough for me.

[Vanguardian53]

Lol. Of course they are. I'm apparently THAT good. So please don't be sorry.
