WendyCR72 July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 I'm sorry! The thought just came to me and I couldn't bear being all alone in my horror. Here, let me make it up, Mark Lawson, ideal Lucky recast: (He can act, too.) Cute but - and I'm aware this is EXTREMELY immature and petty - but by virtue of the fact he was on OLTL, no. Just because it would piss RC off not to get more OLTL actors. 1 Link to comment
Oracle42 July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 (edited) I'm torn. Ugh to more OLTL actors but ML is good looking and he can play a character with intelligence and heart and humor. I think I remember him being a little stiff every once in a while and he doesn't have Lucky's soul but given some of this team's casting choices (lookin at you, Fords, Tree, Dollar Store and NuLu - I really liked ER on both CBS soaps but she's miscast as Lulu ) he's basically a minor miracle - but....I dunno Edited July 7, 2015 by Oracle42 3 Link to comment
dubbel zout July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 by virtue of the fact [Mark Lawson] was on OLTL, no. Lawson wasn't a marquee name on OLTL, so the connection doesn't bother me. I think he'd be great as Lucky, but I don't think the writing would be worth a recast. Let Lucky run off to wherever he's going to run off to, but let us know he's in touch with the boys on a regular basis. 5 Link to comment
GHScorpiosRule July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 Maybe this should go in the Unpopular Thread or Speculation, but I don't think that fuckwit or his partner in crime, the other fuckwit, would ever recast Robin or Lucky because then they wouldn't be able to dig into those wonderful flashbacks of Kimberly and JJ as young'ns and make our my heart strings sing. 2 Link to comment
UYI July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 Cute but - and I'm aware this is EXTREMELY immature and petty - but by virtue of the fact he was on OLTL, no. Just because it would piss RC off not to get more OLTL actors. Which means that I can't get James DePaiva or Fiona Hutchison back in daytime ever on GH, even though they were last OLTL cast members 3 or 4 years before Ron became head writer, even though I miss them terribly and my teenage heart still stings from their loss. YOU DON'T WANT ME TO EVER BE HAPPY, DO YOU. :'( 3 Link to comment
TeeVee329 July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 (edited) I'd take Mark Lawson as Lucky in a heartbeat, but I sadly don't think he'd get a fair shake, especially right after Jonathan Jackson. "Ron is replacing Jonathan Jackson with someone from OLTL, kill him!". As for You Know Who, if he was going to show up on GH, I think it would have been as Dillon, or even Lucas. I think we're safe. *throws salt over shoulder just in case* Edited July 7, 2015 by TeeVee329 7 Link to comment
Oracle42 July 7, 2015 Share July 7, 2015 I dunno. RC lurved him some Jazzhands McRubberface. I think given a choice between casting him as Tracy's throwaway son or giving him the role of Lucky Spencer? 1 Link to comment

They don't give a crap about the actual characters, they care about the "buzz" generated when KMc or JJ make a guest appearance. 3 Link to comment
Badsamaritan July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 I'm sorry y'all but, NO MORE OLTL ACTORS!!! Ahem, I apologize for the shouty post, but I can't take it. And I want Jeff Branson as Lucky. He actually looks like a grown ass man. Link to comment
Oracle42 July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 Jeff Branson is still my number one pick. I don't think he generic enough for FrankenRon but I think he'd be an excellent recast Link to comment
dubbel zout July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 If Lucky's scene(s) with Liz resolve the deadbeat-dad aspect, I'm fine with no Lucky recast. The writing is so terrible I'd hate to see yet another longtime character get butchered. 6 Link to comment
KerleyQ July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 Jeff Branson is a Y&R actor, though, so six of one... Plus, he seems to not remotely be interested in committing to a soap. He'd maybe be willing to come and go, but then we'd just end up with the same crappy writing Ron gives every other character who's portrayed by someone who comes and goes. Link to comment

Melgaypet July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 Well Jeff was on AMC first (loved Jonathan and Lily) Ah, yes, I remember him. Jonathan Lavery, the abusive murderer with a BRAIN TUMOR that supposedly caused all his bad behavior. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Jeff Branson is a good actor, though something about his face grosses me out. I don't know what. 3 Link to comment
jennifer6973 July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 yes and once he had the tumor taken out, he was still a pariah, but with limited abilities (like one with a tumor would have) But I still loved him and Lily together. Jack would disagree with me though. 1 Link to comment

ulkis July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 The proposal itself, the actress beams, "is well-written, well-done, and Carly/Sonny fans are going to be so happy. Maurice was adorable, of course, and we have little baby Avery with us when he does it, which makes it all ever cuter." Nothing screams "cute" like Sonny and Carly. 3 Link to comment
KerleyQ July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 Nothing screams "cute" like Sonny and Carly. Carly, Sonny, and the next kid who's going to be shot/blown up due to Sonny. Gotta throw the baby who will no doubt be in a coma at some point before she hits driving age to up the cute factor. 2 Link to comment

GH has now become "choose your own adventure", a la "if you think Sonny took back his business 6 months ago, apply selective amnesia to date X given thereafter" and "if you think Sonny has yet to get his business, forget all mentions prior". It's the RC way. 6 Link to comment

Speaking of Kiki walking in on people doing it... Despite the possible repercussions, Morgan and Denise continue to act on their feelings. Yeeesss, keep at it until Kiki catches you in the act!
