Rotting Y&R: The Spoiler Thread

[valleycliffe]

so, was "jeremy" audition really for adam?

i'd rather they just get mm back.

[Big Blue Plate]

But MM can't come back if HHK is there and there's any truth to all that flew around.  And really who cares about another Adam?

[Artsda]

Does this mean they'll bring back Chelsea too? No way Adam returns and just is ok with his kids & wife out there somewhere.

so, reading spoilers at different forums, apparently kyle invites lola to the cabin for valentine's day...she cites she has to work and turns him down.......kyle decides to go to the cabin alone.

dummer decides to follow him.  when she shows up kyle tells her to leave and she says no, she is there to support him.

in the meantime jack, tessa and mariah talk her into not giving up on kyle....she goes to the cabin to see him..

betting $100 cyber dollars she sees kyle and dummer having sessy times.

LOL  i can hear him saying "WE WERE ON A BREAK"..

and ride the sleigh by himself?  And pretend both parts of the date? [most depressing chess game ever] what is the point of going on with the plan if half of the participants aren't there?  It's either really feeling sorry for himself or a very elaborate masturbation.  And poor writing...they just could have had him pouting in the CGAC bar/workout room and Summer jumps him there.  I'm sick of the Abbott cabin-get Sharon to burn it down.

[valleycliffe]

oh, there is also a spoiler out that kyle discovers somthing shocking.  wk of feb.18

i suspect that he finds out that lola went to the cabin after all and saw him with dummer

I right clicked in Chrome for a GIS and that's who they say it is. But no, I don't think they can get Affleck.

[ByaNose]

The big mystery who’s going to play Adam is in full swing. Apparently, they want a name with credits.  So, all you reality stars who are an aspiring to be an actor better step back. LOL!!!!! I can’t think of anyone in the Michael Muhney (dark hair) or Justin Hartley (lighter hair) mode. I’m not seeing it. I picture someone tall if that helps. Not as tall as Eric Braeden (he wouldn’t stand for it....LOL) but taller then Joshua Morrow (he doesn’t care. He’s a team player). What’s the dirt? Any ideas who the lucky guy who is getting the role?

Problem is that they already have an actor on canvas that's a good fit for Adam - Jason Thompson. Swap him into the role of Adam and bring back Billy Miller for the role of Billy.

You're so much kinder than I am.

Regarding JT, I'd just leave it at "He's all wrong."

[CharethCutestory]

They should've hired JT to play a new character and made him a detective or something, he's horrible as Billy and I can't see him being much better as Adam. I know Jeff Branson played Ronan (wasn't watching then) but I think he'd make a decent Billy. As for who could play Adam I have no idea. I'm going through the soap vet and Hallmark rolodex and coming up blank.

I’m now searching my former prime time series actor looking for any job Rolodex. Perhaps I was limiting myself to my daytime Rolodex. I thought of people from the NYC soaps days but then realized they are are too old now. Wait! Does that mean I’m old, too? Nah!

I actually believe that JT was intended to play the role of Adam initially but he was unavailable since he had renewed a contract with GH. JFP had to wait about a year or eighteen months later to jettison the actor who was playing Billy in order to snap JT up. JFP was asked about recasting the role of Adam well over a year before she acted on it, and she said she already had "someone in mind", but that he wasn't available at that time. Maybe it was Hartley all along, but I don't believe it, and I wonder how much they had to drop in order to be able to land him.

Edited February 10, 2019 by Toomuchsoap

[Anna Yolei]

JT was a Friend of Jill? I actually forgot about that with the way Young has elevated this character and actor way more than JFP propped Steve Burton. And that's saying something.

[ByaNose]

Friend of Jill never gets old. I mean it’s been years & it still follows her. Too funny! She hired a lot of her friends & killed a lot of shows in the process. That’s quite a resume. She’s pretty much done in daytime. She ruined both Y&R & GH. B&B can’t be touched as well as Days. Of course, Ken Corday will probably RC in a few years to “reboot” Days for the umpteenth  time.

How many Valentine's Days ago was it that Summer's first husband was murdered at the Abbott Cabin?  One would assume that any member of the Scooby-Doo gang, especially Summer, would avoid that place like The Plague, especially on Valentine's Day.

Now that we know Adam is getting recast..What actors would you consider for the role?

This is what they taped on 1/9/2019. This script was distributed on 12/17/2018. This is still Mal Young's writing.

In current taping, Victor goes on trial for the murder of JT Hellstrom. Michael is his lawyer. His family and reporters gather at the courthouse while Phyllis watches the news reports from Nick's den.

It's funny, yesterday I was catching up on the week's episodes and catching up on this thread and I was actually reading the above while the episode was airing.  What a nice coincidence.

Do you think they've edited KSJ out, or that his scenes will air?

And with all this talk of Adam, I guess he's behind the JT shtuff. I kinda bummed. I was holding onto a glimmer of hope that it was gonna be Ray Wise's character. (softly singing "Chelsea 2.oh" to myself)

 all it said for Adam was "The show has put out a casting call for an experienced actor to test for the powerful role"

[CharethCutestory]

I thought some more about soap actors that aren't doing much these days and came up with James Scott  (EJ on Days and Ethan on AMC) and Chad Brannon (Zander on GH) as potentials for nunuAdam. They're in the age range and were always solid actors. I think James could be great if he can pull off the American accent.

I just want to make sure SOD is reliable they woudlnt report adam is being recast out of their ads right 

[boes]

Kyle Lowder will be out at Days, though not for a couple of months, I think.  Billy Flynn has already left.  

BF is, I think, too young for the role and I leave it to others to decide if Lowder, who is in the right age range, has the chops to play the role......I like him but I also don't think he's Olivier.....but then again, he's playing Nick's brother so a towering intellect isn't exactly called for....

so how legit is Soap opera digest? with their casting reports

[babyhouseman]

I got the new TV Guide. Nikki has been on the soap for 40 years. They'll mark it on February 20 by putting her in jail. She'll have flashbacks which I guess will be clips which I'm sure will show her love story with the Crypt Keeper. The actress said she's most asked about Nikki's stripping, drinking, and kissing Eric Braeden. Being a long-time viewer, her kissing EB has never crossed my mind until now. Newer viewers will probably get to see a younger Victor who, to me, was just as creepy looking as the older version. Your tastes may vary. There was this guy named Paul who was part of her story, but I doubt he'll be mentioned.

SOD is legit. I wouldn’t doubt this if they’re reporting it. It seems important to them to not piss off show. 

I find it interesting that the news is Y&R is “actively looking to cast” Adam Newman. It strikes me as a clear message to Muhney fans. He’s not coming back. So let. It. Go.

thank you! and yes i have no problems with muhney fans but yeah hes not coming back
I wonder how josh will explain where Adam was for two years though that will be hard and casting Adam is very difficult. It took JFP 8 months

I think show wants to protect the new hire from immediate backlash for not being Muhney. So this gives them time to get used the fact he won't be Adam again.

The part that will be the tough sell about Adam's absence is that he stayed away from Connor. I suppose they could say he was injured, had amnesia and was incapacitated for a long stretch of it.

Well, there's already been "Face-Off Adam."

Now, maybe Adam should be sent over to Salem, where they have a nifty cure for amnesia.

Just speculation on my part, but I suspect Josh Griffith and Tony Molina wants Adam 4.0 up and running as soon as they can snag a decent actor, so faster than JFP.
