Members Alan Posted March 23 Members Share Posted March 23 Do we think Keith Robinson was always the the first choice for Ted but wasn't available for the first 3 months of taping? If the show wanted Robinson to be Ted badly enough, maybe Maurice Johnson was meant to be a temporary fill-in from the start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 23 Members Share Posted March 23 Daytime recycles the same actors. This helps him possibly get cast for B&B or Y&R down the line should a role come up that fits him. I think he did well to handle this gracefully thats been speculated and I can see it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wendy Posted March 23 Members Share Posted March 23 Yeah, that was no small accomplishment! I realized most of the SB stuff was moved to the proper thread in the Cancelled Soaps folder. Apologies for the derailment. So, to try and keep on topic, hopefully, the chemistry will be there, too, for Karla Moseley and the new actor. As above, chemistry with recasts can be a crap shoot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 23 Members Share Posted March 23 But the chem matters with Daphnee D, not KaMo, right? Recast for Ted, Nicole's husband? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 23 Members Share Posted March 23 It's been known to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 One important thing about all of the buzz this has caused is that it's shown the show has a passionate fanbase. For a new soap I do think all of this attention is impressive and a good sign that they have a diverse and unique fanbase for a soap. The amount of people I've seen ask what a recast means has been kinda funny but also nice because it means they're bringing a new audience to soaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 Last night I was in a Spaces on Twi/X & they said they'd been in the middle of a podcast when the article broke & they had to stop the podcast & restart later. People are hanging on this show's "news" like they're waiting on important family news. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wendy Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 Oh, right. But the point stands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 (edited) Yeah, exactly. That's what is surprising me so much, yet not entirely given it has finally, actively courted Black viewership - it is genuinely garnering an all-new audience unused to these basic daytime BTS changes. Characters like Dani, Hayley, Eva and Dana, etc. being so polarizing is equally good. Edited March 24 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 Yes and that people care so much about the character after just a month too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 I may be in a minority, but I am not that attached to the character yet. I've only seen him in 2-3 more interesting scenes and the rest has been just... a handsome man walking around in a turtleneck making girls and gays swoon. That's all. I think some people around the internet want there to be drama where there isn't. I've left jobs, just because something doesn't align with my schedule... Sometimes it's just personal life stuff changing your priorities. There can be a million and one things that can lead to a re-cast. There is not a single sign that the show is "disposing" of him or treating him badly... like some people are speculating. I am not saying you can't speculate - there just isn't any proof of that. Give me proof and we'll talk. Also... I struggle to understand the emotional outbursts in facebook and some other places of social media. People are acting like it's Brooke Logan being re-cast on The Bold and The Beautiful after 40 years. LOL. I'm not opposed to them... (the reactions), just don't "get them". I also don't want this to follow like a shadow... the new actor who is going to play Ted. He doesn't deserve for people to continue harping on this issue for months. I hope not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 Again it boils down to letting people feel how they feel. IF that's how they feel that's a good thing. It shows they care, and are passionate If they didn't feel anything then I'd be worried about being apatheic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 Yup! People can get emotional as much as they want. If they want... they can get into mental breakdowns for all I care... But I'm also seeing lies and people spreading gossip that the show is disposing of him or that the show treated him badly. And their proof is re-tweets on twitter or... "they feel like this happened". Just because we imagine something, doesn't mean it happened. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 24 Members Share Posted March 24 And just because some person on the Internet said it, does not mean it is so, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
