In the soap glory days, even the most popular actors like Eric Braeden and Susan Lucci had to do the best with whatever story they were given. The show is on its last legs. How can actors have enough power to torpedo stories? If Goddard won't work with the material he is given, it is time for him to go. Unless you have a conflict with an actor, you should not be making demands on what story you want. Especially if you are a mediocre actor and your character is one of the disposable ones. 2 hours ago, valleycliffe said: https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/yr-casts-new-role-6/ and here comes another one...guess this one is for kyle But they can’t write for LL. 8 Share this post Link to post

ByaNose 40.1k July 30, 2019 Has the clock started for how long it takes for TPTB to dump JT for Billy Miller? Of course, Billy Miller might be heading right to prime time but I’m sure it’s being tossed around quite seriously at Y&R. I know AH would love it as would JM. They were really upset when he left. I always thought BM looked more like an Abbott. Which is odd since Thompson looks more like JW son than any of the previous Billy’s . Time will tell. It’s time that BM pecs come home where they belong. LOL!!! 12 3 Share this post Link to post

There's probably another "ism" that applies too but I'll leave that one alone. YR just fired its only female Black actor who is a named character. I'm thinking if it looks like duck and quacks like a duck it likely is a duck. Or not. (BTW, there is another soap forum where the posters are doing a fairly insightful analysis of what happened with the Ana character. I'm not going to link to it but it's easily found by googling. Warning, that site is not for the faint of heart.) could you shoot me the link :) Share this post Link to post

You’re people in the public eye, you’re on a soap opera and subject to criticism. And you get your feelings hurt when viewers critique or criticize you? If you’re that thin skinned, then maybe you need to find a different career. EB sounds just like Victor in his tweets. I think he’s gotten his character confused with him self. if someone wants to be a douche and tag them then they deserve whatever they get.. I applaud EB for defending his friend. 3 Share this post Link to post

Sake614 13.4k August 4, 2019 I don't know if her firing was race based or simply that the writers grew bored with the character. They probably thought it was a great idea at the time but then got distracted by the next shiny new toy. That's not a reflection on her in the least nor is it an excuse for them. Just a fact of life in TV land. I know I was bored with the character and her smugness. But she's a Millennial. That's how they roll lol! 1 1 Share this post Link to post

Joimiaroxeu 52.7k August 5, 2019 OMG, I'm watching this urban gangster movie from 2018 called Den of Thieves. It stars known tough guys Gerard Butler, 50-Cent, and Pablo Schrieber. Guess who pops up as I guess the owner of a German-themed cops and robbers dive bar? Eric Braeden! I'm only about 30 minutes in so I don't know if he gets to throw any punches but I'm already laughing at the thought. But this movie is definitely not a comedy. ETA: Further investigation revealed that the movie's writer and director is EB's son who appears to be building an interesting body of work in the crime drama genre per IMDb.

Yeah, I watched part of that movie, too. I knew about EB's son's involvement, but after loving Pablo Schreiber in two seasons of American Gods, I was mostly watching to see what he'd do. Action movies, oddly, make me snoozy, but I snapped right up when old Victor is seen sitting at the end of the bar for his cameo. 5 Share this post Link to post

Kitty Redstone 12.1k August 6, 2019 I'm sad and a bit angry that Loren has been let go. Ana, Elena and Devon were the biggest reason I was watching this show (I'm still chuckling over Loren's line delivery when Ana was told to take advice "from a guy who tweets all day") and am not happy that they've been back-burnered the last few weeks. I'm not at all interested in Phyllis or Chelsea and have quickly tired of invincible, pointy Adam. This is yet another short-sighted decision by soap powers-that-be.
