Members Vanguardian53 Posted Friday at 08:11 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:11 PM Ted has singlehandedly been ruined as a character after today. What are these showrunners doing? Smh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted Friday at 08:22 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:22 PM Plus, this show is barely 25 episodes old lol. Anything playing out with Dr. Ted now was clearly planned from the beginning regardless of the actor. Sorry that Tr0ll Account #3 didn't get the show bible or any creative input whatsoever. Don't call them, they (won't) call you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vanguardian53 Posted Friday at 08:27 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:27 PM (edited) Just say my name stupid. But what I say still stands. You and several others here are less than clever. Tragically less. Edited Friday at 08:29 PM by Vanguardian53 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted Friday at 08:32 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:32 PM It's fine to not blame his behavior, but that behavior will not help him. And no, he wasn't sent to the curb like a trash bag. I'm sorry, but this is hyperbole to the nth degree. The hatred is not high. But you know who will show hate? The nutjobs who act like Maurice Johnson is the greatest daytime actor of all time and who should be given a lifetime Emmy for his 13 weeks of work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted Friday at 08:38 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:38 PM (edited) Dude has been warning 'this show/actor better bring it!!' since early last year when he realized P&G was not accepting unsolicited creative submissions. He just repeats the same 'warnings' over and over. Vanguard Accounts #1-3 don't actually care about Johnson so much as concern tr0lling every aspect of BTG because it is not his soap and never will be. Next month he will have some other Very Serious Concerns. Edited Friday at 08:39 PM by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted Friday at 08:41 PM Author Members Share Posted Friday at 08:41 PM Maybe if we had acknowledged their YouTube video better, or taken is serious. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted Friday at 08:43 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:43 PM Exactly. We know from interviews that Michele Val Jean wrote the character storyline plans in advance and that what has been taped was from her vision. It was said at the Paley Center Feb. 20 that they tape a full three months in advance of the airdate, and that Sheila Ducksworth sees the writing 6 months in advance of airdate. Nothing was changed about the character of Ted. Ted's storyline was planned out from the beginning that Ted paid off Leslie in the past and is offering to pay her off again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted Friday at 08:49 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:49 PM It's obvious that they want Ted to be "complex" and not entirely in the right with how he treated Silkpress Sheila, but also not necessarily a bad guy against Nicole and their marriage (as they were going through troubles). I think they might've thought Maurice played it too black and white and seemed like two different characters depending on who he played against. But I haven't watched this weeks episodes of BtG so my hunch might be wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted Friday at 08:50 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 08:50 PM My suspicion remains that they thought Maurice played it too nice, but you're possibly onto something similar too. I remember being surprised at how charming MJ's Ted was considering the casting notice for Dr. Ted instantly made me think serial killer lol. But I guess that's part of the point of the character having a dark side/secret, provided they're not too diametrically opposed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members te. Posted Friday at 09:54 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 09:54 PM (edited) Yeah, I think they want this to be a more... nuanced. Not necessarily that Ted is an awful person, but also that Silkpress isn't entirely in the wrong. I suspect they felt like he might've either played it too one-sided (ie Silkpress Sheila is in the wrong, Ted is a honest nice man) OR that he just ends up playing it like two different characters. I suspect he might've not found that balance - I guess we've still got eight more weeks to judge him on, so we'll see. He wasn't the first person I'd choose to recast at this moment, but I do think the green newbies are improving and clearly Ted's storyline is front-and-center right now, so that might've made them more inclined to recast.

Members Vanguardian53 Posted Friday at 10:26 PM Members Share Posted Friday at 10:26 PM Complex? You're being generous. The audience is sure to hate NuTed, the way they already wanted to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Nicole asked this of Hayley, but I digress. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
