November 22, 2013

The Bold and the Beautiful is apparently at it again, ramping up its younger set!

Today via a tweet from Nelson Branco, he related that the CBS soap is looking for a young women, a leading lady type, ages 22-25!

In addition, the casting call said of the upcoming role: “Beautiful. A sex kitten. Ambitious. Goes after what she wants. Very upscale, not trashy. LOOKING FOR AUTHENTIC BRITISH ACTRESSES ONLY! Recurring, possible contract.”

Could this be young Jackie M. type … with a likeness to the beautiful Leslie-Anne Down?

So the questions remain … who would you suggest from daytime or primetime television that might fit the bill for the role? Who do you think this beautiful British ambitious sex kitten will be wrapped up in story with? Share your thoughts below!

I think this is the last thing the show needs. Either get Jacqueline back full-time, or recast the role. We don’t need ANOTHER young actress on the show.

I always enjoy your comments, ATWT Fan. But I have to disagree. B&B needs more characters to interact with one another. Both Brooke and Taylor have been involved with the same three men. Liam goes back and forth between Hope and Steffey. Bill has loved two sisters …..

Unfortunately, B&B is only a half-hour soap and cannot support half the cast they have now. Most of their “recurring” cast only appearance once, maybe twice per year. If they utilized their history more (beyond love triangles) and used the resources for cast they already have now, they wouldn’t need extra cast.

I mean, they cast Beverly after Dayzee came to town, and now she’s disappeared into the abyss of nothing. They dropped Amber to recurring and she’s been M.I.A. since. Unless you’re contract and in a main storyline, you can basically look for another job on this soap.

A yound Jackie Maroni? I have no idea who would fit that role, but it will be interesting to see how she fits on the canvas!

This new role is the last thing b&b needs.I am not excited about someone new when they have under utilized the wonderful cast that they have now.No disrespect to writers, producers etc. But these triangles need to end and tedious recycling of story lines and scripts,ugh . Fix the broken pieces first before finding new characters to bring into the mix. As much as I adore JMW’s portrayal of Steffy, if she can’t come back full time then I think a recast is welcome, even if it is a temporary recast. This soap has become unbalanced and ridiculous. I understand… Read more »

Especially given the fact that Thomas is never seen anymore. What happened to him anyway?

Guest

Makenzie

Sorry for the late reply. Thomas used to be in the basement but somehow ended up in Paris, along with Ridge, Taylor and Steffy.

How about Bennie Hill? He was an excellent crossdresser, and even though he’s dead he’d be a more attractive cast member than most they have on contract.

Va VA VA VOOM!

I love the Joan Collins answer!!!

I second that choice. Nothing says “sex kitten” like a striking woman close to 80 years old!!! This show thrived on camp in the Sally Spectra days. Heck, I’d cast Collins as a 25 year old woman determined to bed Thomas!!! Would be hilarious.

The whole idea behind the re-cast is boring. It’s just a way overused typecast used as a fall back when you can’t, or won’t, write good and interesting storylines.

The B&B cast, for a 30-minute show is already SOOOO overbloated, unless they’re canning someone, this is not needed. They just brought on a 20-something this week, but at least she’s related to the core family. A random someone Is. Not. Needed.

Guest

I guess no one is objecting to the term “sex kitten” so I will. Come on B&B in this day and age, really?

Guest

Nikki

Instead of another new face, why don’t they utilize the ones they haven’t been using? Or bring back characters like Bridget, Nick, Owen, Jackie, Felicia, etc.

Guest

Brett

Another young character to no doubt get involved in Hope’s love triangles, yawn!

Lauren Cohan would be great! She really was terrific on “Supernatural”!

Corbin Bernsen to Reprise His Role of Arnie Becker in ‘LA Law’ Revival Pilot

October 18, 2021

Corbin Bernsen (Father Todd, The Young and the Restless) and the son of Y&R’s late great Jeanne Cooper (Katherine Chancellor) has signed on to reprise his signature primetime television role of womanizing lawyer Arnie Becker in the upcoming LA Law revival pilot.

This makes Corbin the co-lead of the series alongside Blair Underwood (Ex-OLTL) who previously signed on to the pilot to reprise his role of Jonathan Rollins. ABC has greenlit the pilot.

According to Deadline, it is believed that Bernsen and Underwood will be the only original members of the mid 80’s-90’s legal drama on NBC in the pilot, but more may guest-star if the show gets picked up for a full-season order.

In the premise of the reboot, the law firm of McKenzie Brackman, now named Becker Rollins, reinvents itself as a litigation firm specializing in only the most high profile, boundary pushing and incendiary cases. The show will feature familiar characters working alongside new ones on the most hot button issues of the day. As for Bernsen’s Becker, now in his 60’s, look for him to struggle with a rapidly shifting sexual and political landscape.

The original LA Law ran for eight seasons from September 15, 1986 to May 19, 1994 on NBC.

So, what do you think of Corbin taking on the role of Arnie Becket in a revival of LA Law? Would you be intrigued to check out the show if it makes it to series? Comment below.
