James Nigbor OUT As General Hospital's Little Jake, Recast Forthcoming!
Courtesy/ABC
Looks like little Jake Spencer has been recast on General Hospital! According to the James Nigbor twitter account, run by the young actor’s parents, James has finished his run as Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Jason’s (Billy Miller) son.
Today in a tweet with images of James as Jake through the years, it read: “This is for my son James. You will always be our Liason baby. Thank you to all the fans for loving my boy.”
When a fan followed up with a tweet saying: “Thank you for sharing him with us. I hope we see more of him on GH,”, the Nigbor account added, “I’m sorry but he has been recasted. Thanks for all your love and support.”
When another fan responded, “Jake’s been recast?” The answer back was, “Yes but we feel truly blessed to have been apart of GH and for him to have had this opportunity.”
Within the Nigbor tweet exchange, it was mentioned that “the 29th” was James last GH episode.
So, what do you think about the news that James Nigbor is no longer playing little Jake? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.

Good move, although sad for him.
I tried to submit Eric Martsolf for favorite hero but would not let me. :/ even though I love him as bad by too 😀
James Scott favorite Hottie and Baddie – hands down!!!
I’m adding a post here since I can’t create a new comment, for some reason.
Although I recognize the need to create categories for voting, right now so many of these characters could actually be listed in their opposite category. In no way, can Rafe, Bo, Roman and Brady be classified exclusively as Heroes, given their motivations and actions in the story line currently. At the same time, to classify EJ as a baddie exclusively overlooks all the character’s positive motivations and actions.
Perhaps having voters order these characters on a continuum of good / bad would generate the information you’re attempting to collect? Seems as if it would work better this time around. It would, at least, acknowledge how “grey” DOOL creates its characters.
I disagree. Bo Brady is definitely exclusively a hero. Bad boy with a heart of gold. Nothing in his current storyline contradicts his hero status. He’s never tried to kill or rape anyone or kidnap any children or anything a “baddie” would do. His bad boy side is small things like getting into fights. No big deal. He’s all about protecting those he loves. He is not a grey character in any way, shape, or form.
EJ, on the other hand, is exclusively a baddie. I haven’t seen an ounce of good in him. His “positive motivations” lead him to horrible actions. No grey area. And this is why I don’t understand why people want someone as evil as him to be with someone as good as Sami. He’s bad for her. I’ll give you Sami as a grey character because of her past, but I only know Sami as the good person she is now. Very flawed, but still good. EJ always has and always will be a bad guy. I can see him getting even worse. Sami should be with a good guy. Someone who won’t rape her or kidnap her kids. Doesn’t necessarily have to be Rafe (though right now he’s pretty much her only option…unless she starts dating Daniel after he finds out about Chloe), but it sure as heck ain’t EJ.
JustMe:
You’ve missed the point of my post. Interesting that you seem intent on reducing the discussion to one more “batlle” in the never-ending triangle of Sami / EJ /Rafe, something not remotely intimated in my original post. Again, the point of my post was to say that many characters, especially the ones I listed, are better viewed as grey characters, not black or white. What is interesting then is to identify what the ratio of hero and baddie (using Fairman’s terminology) is necessary to create that particular character. What we end up with then is actually a character much more in line with those we encounter in Real Life. After all, not one of us is entirely good or bad.
You bring up Sami as a “good” character, thus opening a discussion of her. At this moment, I think it difficult to defend your assertion that she is a “good” character. After all, she has attempted to murder her ex-fiancée, the father of two of her children, in cold blood by shooting him in the head when he was unconscious, thus, defenseless. She shows no remorse, only regret, that she failed to accomplish her mission. Let’s also not forget that she withheld the information which started this whole chain of events – that she was pregnant with EJ’s child. Nor did she tell him until after that baby died. I could continue her list of transgressions ad nauseaum, but that would detract from my original thesis, that these characters are a mixture of both hero and baddie.
I encourage you, this time around, to re-examine each character in terms of his actions. I think you will find that it is not difficult to accept my original premise. I do hope though that you can distance yourself from your previous assumptions to attempt an impartial assessment.
this photo of rafe and ej fight so lame no metter what days want take a very good look no one care love or want rafe! this is a fact! {well is 10 fans do care) and onther thing hes long thet sites keep puse rafe on us we hate him we dont love him!
puse it will be a fail!!
Everyone has a right to their own opinions so it isn’t necessary to put others down because they have a different opinion. Rafe/Galen already has more than 10 votes proving that he has more than 10 fans. I know a lot of people who do care about Rafe, as well as EJ, Bo, Brady and all the other actors on the show. I believe that Days of Our Lives knows that ALL of their actors have fans and I know they love that. We don’t all have to like/love the same characters or actors. It is OK.
James is the best! we love ej dimera
Why because Rafe has the upper hand over EJ. Ej is only good at fighting when it’s a woman or teenager! He is a pathetic piece of work! At least the ratings are going back up when SAFE is on the screen, and not down like this summer when it was Ej and Sami! Makes a person go Hmmm………….
becuse it is treu the rating ar still bad and the demo suck the best demo days had in 3 yaers was from may to july tjis yaer gess who wasent there! i grenty you thet small nombers love rafe believe it or not! and the rating was up when ej wock up so give me a braek!
all the other soap the ga crazy abaut the bad guys they rules in cbs and abc there is no difrent on nbc or days
Whether you like them or loathe them, EJ and Sami are an evocative couple that gets everyone talking. That is the making of a great soap couple. They have chemistry for “Days” (hehe) and a rich backstory. Those are the makings of a winning storyline and strong viewership. It’s very counterintuitive to leave the vast EJAMI following waiting for 5 years. If viewers are what they are after, they need to give them what they want eventually and in this case sooner is better. Leaving an audience FFing through scenes in hopes of an EJAMI crumb here and there is surely not what they are going for but that is what they are doing. Give EJAMI a chance. Show the love. Heck the show is only renewed through Sept. 2011. There isn’t much time left at this point.
lovin_safe ratings dropped because of the stories because Ken opened his big mouth, I’m working on network Believe what you want to believe, but what you see is not the real ratings!
this is what you need to see but it’s not real!
Rachel. Your opinion doesnt mean a thing. Galen is gaining fans everyday. Just because EJ fans relentlessly tell their members to vote in every poll out there and spamming is encouraged doesn’t mean he’s the winner.
HAH! How exactly is GG gaining fans every day? I know EJami are because the member count at FL goes up by a couple EVERY DAY.
And Galen’s fans don’t vote relentlessly? The only difference is that James still comes out the winner. And yes Rami fans do vote relentlessly on spammable polls, I’ve seen it happen before my very eyes.The percentage(daysofourlives.com poll) rises more than thirty times in one minute constantly, for several minutes. So don’t try and act all high and mighty.
Then why in 08 before GG was hired were they talking of canceling the show? In 09 when Rafe and Sami were together the ratings came up every week or stayed the same. Then this summer when the show focused on Ej and Sami the ratings dropped to last place a lot of the time. And how they are gaining a little every week! I think it’s because viewers want romance and SAFE can delivery it, they act like billions of couples down to earth viewers can relate to them. Maybe even see themselves in SAFE.
I have seen Ej votes totals go from 6000 to 25000 overnight, so all fan bases spam, but spamming doesn’t mean that actor wins, or he is the most popular! A lot of viewers I know don’t vote because they are not accurate if you have to cheat then it’s not winning!
what plant you live hun? i got news for you believed or not galen and safe didnt done anthing to the show and you will get the proop soon the show got onther yaer to see how the new writing stuff will be and the ratings was up in september when galen was gone the story moved and ejami was shown a lot! for fact ejami bring the demos this is a fact like i said i will not try to proop you nothing i will just tell you they fantasy youlive in is a lie the network see other ratings not what we see!they heve onther ratings thet more corect! and this summmer lol what i sew ejami was togethor and days got the best demo in 10 weeks from may to july the best demo gess who wasent there by thet time! i got news for you and remember thet very good the daily ratings can be sukes but if the demos ar good the show will not care! now ask yourself thet haters was to luke and laura to but still it dosent butter to 30 milion watch thier weeding! but wait and see ok i sew a chat wite ken literly he said i was worng in his word what i want to see on screen this is not what the fans want his words i gess this is is wey to tell us i em sorry i told you in june the rating drop becuse of me lol! you can take the daily ratings they dont do anthing but the demo counted and demos ar ejami!~ i will also remind you thet comcest will take over nbc in december so wait and see
heppy holiday:)
i would love to see Bryan Dattilo
but he’s not on the show..?
James S.(EJ. D.) is definitely the best Hottie
I chose James S.(EJ D.) as the best baddie but now I wish I chose Victor. SO I retract my vote for EJ and give it to Victor 😉
Loving Bad Eric M.(Brady), so Bo is favorite hero.
Good Poll MF!
Love the polls – James Scott rocks DAYS – love Peter Reckell too – he was my first soap love. 🙂
Thank you for doing this. I wish I go to DOD but it’s nice knowing our voices will be heard by having you tell the actors/actresses directly. I only wish there was another category for the females…favorite heroine/villian. Thanks again…and have a blast at DOD! Can’t wait to see your coverage.
PS
Please get some tidbits on the EJAMI romance for us! 😉
Thanks for the polls, Michael. I love Galen Gering and Peter Reckell so the hero one was a tad bit hard…..lol…..but in the end Galen’s Rafe is my favorite hero, but Bo is my favorite all time hero of Days. Voted for Galen for Hottie and Hero.
Galen Gering is definitely the best Hottie on Days! He is by far the most handsome and sexiest man on the show……but let’s give credit where credit is due…James Scott is by far the best Baddie ever….he gets my vote for the most sadistic and cruelest bad guy on Days.
You mean EJ gets the vote for favorite baddie, because James is the actor and not the character. Your reply sounds like your labeling the actor at sadistic and cruel imo. I get that some EJ and Rafe fans don’t get along, but it annoys me when the lines between actor and character is blured.
Of course, I mean the character of Ej is the best baddie!…….I would never say James Scott is sadistic and cruel……..don’t even know the man….he’s probably a very nice person….I don’t believe in speaking poorly of the actor, he is very convincing as the hateful and heartless Elvis…… we Galen fans are well aware of how hurtful those who dislike the character of Rafe can transfer their feelings to the actor…..he has endured many personal insults and bashings…..I don’t approve of such doings……we are here to discuss the characters………I’m sure Mr. Scott knows that we don’t think he is like the character he portrays!
Love James he Is why a huge number watching days of our lives !dool never received so many buzz as she got when ej Come!
James Scott is the best at everything. You should have put him in the hero category too.
Thanks for the poll Michael!
It was hard to pic between James (EJ) and Shawn (Dan) for favorite hottie, but in the end I chose James because the man has the whole package IMO.
Favorite baddie was a toss up between Victor and Stefano, so I did just that and tossed a coin with Stefano being the winner lol.
Bo (Peter) is the best hero on Days and no one else comes close.
Michael
Thanks for doing these polls. I’m assuming you’re going to do some more for the beautiful women of DOOL!!!! Will be voting in those as soon as they are up!!!!
Keep up the great stuffs Michael!!!!!
Hottest Guy is without a doubt for me James Scott as EJ Dimera
Baddie is Joe Mascolo as Stefano/tho Lauren Koslow (Kate)gives him a run for his money
Hero is without a doubt,for this longtime viewer as Bo Brady,played by the wonderful Peter Reckell
james scott amazing
I heart Michael Fairman
This is not to bash but I honestly don’t get why they consider Rafe a hero. He is not like any hero I’ve ever seen in 25 years of watching DOOL. He certainly is no Bo, Shane, John not even close and DOOL has never had a hero I didn’t like until now (if Rafe is a hero). I really wish they would stop putting him in that category as I think it’s an insult to the DOOL hero’s of the past. And if saving a life constitutes a hero than that would make EJ one to LOL!
I agree. I haven’t seen one thing on screen that would make me think of this character as a hero. I was shocked to see the character of Rafe on the hero list.
Bryan Dattilo/Lucas Horton is the BEST on or off Days Of Our Lives,bring him back
Rafe is the hottest for sure. I think Nicole is the best baddie and I had a hard time choosing between Rafe and Bo for the best hero.
Galen Gering is the hottest hero ever on Days. JMO.
No one can come close to Stephano’s fury.
EJ is the man! Love, love, love him. Such a richly drawn character, but as someone else mentioned, we need our EJami or at the very least, stop the silly fighting between the two. It’s gotten old. I hate they killed Ari cuz I could’ve seen her w/ EJ and that would’ve been great conflict btwn the four. I want to see EJ content for a while w/ his children, whether he’s w/ Sami or not. Back to the poll: I must admit I love almost all of the men on Days. This show has the best group of hotties on daytime (probably tv in general).
Would have voted for James Scott in all three categories if he was listed. To me he is a hero also. He has done some bad things but he has a heart and a conscience. He is not Stefano. James Scott has it all, the looks and the acting skills. He outmatches anyone he acts with. Love him or hate him, he is one fine actor.
Favorite Days Hottie is JAMES SCOTT (EJ DiMera)
Favorite Days Baddie is ALISON SWEENEY (Samantha Brady)
Favorite Days Hero is JAMES SCOTT (EJ DiMera)
EJ’s DEFINITELY SUPER HOTT, SUPER FINE, SUPER SEXY, and SUPER GORGEOUS!!! WOW!!!
Sami has always been super bad! Love the villainess vixen queen! Her & EJ are amazing and awesome together! So much fun! They are so made for each other! She’s even badder than EJ. EJ doesn’t even come close to Sami and what she has done both past and present and what she’s capable of. Sami has always been a villainess! She’s right up there with Stefano, Vivian, Kate, and Victor. Just ask her how many “villan,” “villainess,” and “vixen” awards she has. She’s a true baddie! And does it so extremely well! No one does villainess, vixen-nism, baddie, and wickedness like Sami and Alison Sweeney does it. She was awesome and fierce when she was like that! A legendary villainess and bad a** that Sami Brady was! Love my favorite villainess and baddie queen Sami! No one does it like her!
And EJ DiMera!! What a awesome Hero he is! EJ’s my favorite Days Hero! EJ has done so much to save and protect the love of his life Samantha, their family together, and even sacrificed himself and his very own life, literally, just to save her and their children. He’d do anything for Sami and their children and would do anything to protect them and has! Including given up his own life and taking crap from her hypocritical family members all the time, who EJ has also helped and saved numerous times as well. My favorite hero EJ!!!!! (and Bo too! And Shawn D. as well!)
EJ DiMera is a hottie, a baddie and definitely a hero in many ways.
I put my vote in for Jay K Johnson as the best hottie on Days. Philip is charming, complex, passionate, and drop dead gorgeous.
James Scott
Hottie, baddie, and hero.
James scott is everything ( THE BEST ACTOR ON DAYS)
James for Hottie and Hero, Joe for villain
too bad not a category for worst actor,
James Scott as Ej DiMera is the ultimate hottie, baddie and hero all in one!! Nothing he ever does is predictable or ordinary, he keeps on amazing me with all his diversity and complexity. He is tall dark and handsome, passionate and has amazing strength to go after what his heart desires, resorting to some cunning devious schemes. His unconditional love for his precious Samantha and his beautiful little rugrats redeems his darkness and makes him their hero. Constantly fighting to protect them, keep them safe and always making sure they have his love. I hope soon Sami will realize that Ej is the perfect man for her, she does not need to be anyone else with him. He loves her no matter what. I hope this year will be a story of redemption of love for Ejami.
Spot on totally agree. Thats what brought me back to watching days, Cheering for Ejami all the way.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. It was James Scott’s protrayal of EJ Dimera and the Ejami pairing that brought me back to this show in 2006 and kept me watching and waiting for that moment when Ejami finally get to be a couple! James Scott is not only, by far, the hottest man on the show, he is also a very talented actor who brings the character of EJ Dimera to life in every scene. It is because this character has such depth and diversity that EJ can easily fit into the category of either baddie or hero depending on the moment. Few characters on this show have that kind of versatility. There are certainly many good looking men on Days, but by far James Scott (EJ Dimera) far outranks them all as the best hottie!
Hey Kiren, just because FL has new members everyday doesn’t mean they are EJAMIS. Did it ever accure to you that many are Safes/Lumis just spying? HAHAHA
and no one knew that? silly girl
like you?
pretend that we like a couple we do not like ,there are places for people like you and there are a lot like you!
but the truth is that even if you do not admit it You love ejami poor women!
Jenesais you give yourself away, the real question is why bother to spy unless you ar really worried that EJami will happen and it will. hahahahaha
You poor spies i guess you have nothing better to do with your time then to spy on others. I guess one should feel pity for you as your lame choice of couples just doesn’t do it for you . FL is an awesome place.
LOL looks like someone hit a soft spot. Why the nasty remarks to someone who admits they spy. You all should have nothing to worry about, right?
I think the original remark was said to dis Safe fans that FL grows everyday with new members. Clearly all the members there are not rooting for ejami. So to make a statement as if FL is overloaded is ridiculous.
EJ is my only reason for watching Days and it would be even better if he and Samantha could be one hot mess together and 4 ever!!!!!
How can Rafe even be a hero…to who has he been a hero to? protecting Sami from the BIG BAD DIMERAS? Right!!!!!! Like even now Ej wouldn’t hurt Sami. So what else has he done? I know he messed up in the WP dibacle. Zero…not a hero. Samis hero.
Ej on the other hand…in the past has saved Samis life many times…even jumped in front of a snipers bullet while she was on her way to WP. Don’t hear anyone give him credit for the many times he HAS done something worthy.
Sorry EJ isnt all that. Rafe is way hotter. Even in person Galen is sexier, nicer and is more fan friendly. Galen rocks his scenes too.
James Scott is hot hot hot & very talented actor . His work is amazing . I live in sweden and we are 4 years behind.
Not really. Wait in 4 years you will be disappointed. He gets worse by the week.
I don’t have to wait sweety! I seen it all but still James scott very interesting to watch & believable acting. sorry but cos James scott now i watch days .
Ejami!!!!!!!!!
James Scott as EJ is my hottie, baddie, hero all rolled into one! He still loves Samantha even tho she shot him (he has figured it out) and adores his children. When they lived in DiMansion, they were a happy little family. EJ should have told her about the kidnapping at that time. Would she have retaliated as she did that fateful night? We don’t know. Will she ever forgive EJ? We don’t know but would hope so if we are EJami fans. All I know is, I admire James Scott for his powerful portrayal of the baddie with a soft heart. Go EJ! Get your family back!
IT’S RAFE AND SAMI 2ND ANNIVERSARY….2 years ago today Rafe and Sami met for the first time in the SAFE house, and I knew then that theirs would be a beautiful love story! And they haven’t disappointed me! They have romance, love, angst, trust, commitment to each other, and sentimental memories of their time together. They are the next SUPERCOUPLE on days!
sorry but this is sami unstable, stupied, liar & she don’t know what she want , we will see Ej knows the sami not Rafe
Hi
How ironic I am also in Sweden and I always started watching Days because of James Scott as Ej DiMera, enjoying his wonderful chemistry with headstrong spunky Sami Brady!! I can’t get enough of these two!!lol
I was so disapointed in GG’s acting. He had to put his head down and cover his face with his hands, because he could not show the right emotions when Ari died. I have noticed that before, he would smirk/smile when a different emotion was needed. But re-watch Fri. GG had to hide his face from the camara.
Ejami, they can really act, and they are great together.
I am waiting for EJ to save Sami from Stefano, sure hope it goes that way.
Galen is just not a good actor, he is pretty bad.
James Scott is my favorite baddie, Rafe never was a hero.
Poor Mark Hapka only has 13 votes 🙁
Well James Scott as Ej DiMera is the very reason why I started to rewatch Days!! I watched his first unforgettable meeting with Sami Brady and I was totally hooked! I have followed their lovestory from the very first day and I have never regretted it. Ej DiMera for me is so complex and compelling to watch throughout the years. Just like Sami, he strives to be good but he can’t help fighting for what he wants and will do anything to get it. His love for his children bring out his gentle side and his revellation of falling helplessly in love with Sami his better half made him want to be a better man, his own man. Together, they are out of this soapworld. I hope Days will finally realize how unique Ejami is and write them an exciting lovestory to capture all that wonderful passion and romance!!
I agree with you 100% James scott is just amazing actor. Ejami chemistry just wonderful to watch. Hej
Hejsan!! Tack för ditt ansvar! Jag håller med James Scott är både snygg och begåvad som skådespelare. Brukar du kolla på youtube Ejami video inslag? Det är hur jag har kommit igång med Ejamis kärleks historia. Ha det bra!
Hej Sheree!
Jag kollar också på Youtube varje dag, Jag hoppas att tv3 börja vissa oss dubbelavsnitt våra bästa år Under varje avsnitt hoppas vi framåt i tiden tills dess att vi når nutid. I’m ADDICTED to this EJamis too. Jag e från Uppsala. O tack du själv , Ha det så bra
Tjena Sara!!
Jag är också Ejami tokig!!lol Jag håller med att det skulle vara kul att ha dubbelavsnitt av Våra bästa år!! Är du en medlem på Ejami FL webbsida? Det är en jätte kul webbsida. Jag bor i Skara. Ha en trevlig kväll!
James Scott , hot hot hot & I watch days cos of him
I dearly love Shawn Christian, he is so good looking, a wonderful actor and very nice man. he is leading in the votes for hottie but I find it very strange there is not one comment left praising him, Are their trolls being very busy – Michael could this poll be spamed to undermine other fan bases votes. just curious. Thi is not to diminish Sean’s validity as a hottie but does seem a bit odd.
Thank you for saying that . I’m thinking the same , something is wrong here don’t you think? Many james scott fans here commenting but the POLLs!!!!! Ejami fan
I’m thinking the same about the POLLs . I’m James scott fan
Hi Anie!
Thanks so much for your comments and yuor vote. I just wanted to reiterate to you and others, what I posted to AnnDee’s comments, that
if you are meaning by “Spammed results” did someone find a way to beat/cheat the system’, I am sure a compentant hacker could do so, but is that what is really going on here?
The way we have it set is up is you can Vote one time in each category from the same computer.
We are taking a look at some things just to diffuse these sentiments that the vote is not accurate in some way, and will keep people posted, if we find anything at all.
Yes, there are not tons of Shawn Christian comments, but it could be that SC fans are not as vocal as James Scott’s or the EJami’s.
But in the end, if we can’t all enjoy this together, and have a good time, then I have to seriously reconsider doing something like this again to honor both the fans, and the actors you love every day.
Hope this make sense.
Best,
Michael
Perfect sense, Michael!
Polls like this are supposed to be fun and spark light-hearted debates and discussions with other fans and fanbases. If it starts inducing migraines or heart palpitations, it’s probably time for that person to take a step back and rethink what their definition of “fun” might be.
Accusing different fanbases of spamming, spying, and just being malicious in general really kind of sucks the fun out of it for everyone. If you’re not having a good time, at least let someone else have one.
I happen to agree with the person who said that Sami cannot be seen as a “good” character any longer. She has done too much. Unless we find out some “twist” in this current story and she did not really shoot EJ or there’s something we don’t know, she’s turned into a morally repulsive creature.
Kate has always been right about Sami.
I like to see EJ everyday he is such interesting and believable character. No matter what character playing he is doing it very well James Scott very talented.
Although I adore Jay and James, Shawn is the definition of “hottie” to me. He’s not only nice to look at, but he is extremely sensual and passionate in his portrayal as Daniel. His raspy voice and perfect smile complete the package. I really don’t think there’s anyone hotter, especially in his scenes with Nadia.
thank you for your courtesy and doing these polls. Shawn is a handsome man, talented and so very nice. He would make a good choice.
Love me some hot delicious Shawn Christian!
Even if Shawn had been the one to shave his head, he would still be the HOTTEST on this show !!
Things that make you go hummmm.. Shawn Christian is okay looking, but no way is he the hottest man on this show, James Scott gets that honor. I do have to add that Michael Fairman is quite the hottie himself.
i voted for eric M for best hottie but i also find james scott yummy:)
i voted for ej for best baddie(he makes bad sound good)
and bo for best hero
Favorite hottie and baddie is James Scott. James is hot but he can act too which makes him the total package. I don’t think I’d be such a big fan if it were just all about looks. He was born to play EJ and excels at playing the bad boy roll. James is a magnificent storyteller. You become captivated and can’t help but root for EJ. He owns the roll of EJ. He’s made EJ who he is and it shines through in each performance. It is because of James and his portrayal of EJ that I feel EJ is the most exciting and interesting characters to watch on Days.
Dool Men are all Hawt…. Shawn,James,Peter, Eric, Galen,Jay,Mark and others guys on there as well, heck all the women are beautiful too. This is one pretty soap but they are all talented as well congrats on to all the winners.
I thought he really grew as an actor since Sam’s accident, and especially in his scenes with Roger Howarth. I will be sad to see him recast just as he was finding his voice as a young actor. Frankly I worry about all young actors. To have to work in such a high-pressured and at times cruel
industry at such a young age seems somehow to rob them of their childhood.
I agree… I posted… that …when he was absent from the show… for those 4-5 years… when even at that young age.. did he know his character had died
he had to have been enjoying his OWN childhood… and he just never surfaced or reinvented…
so darned cute! my heart still aches for Liz… and it was a “real” treat to see little Jake… with Roger Howarth’ Franco… bonding
I was looking forward to this storyline… with Liz moving on… you could see the magic “surfacing” with Franco, Liz, Jake… and her other sons
sorry to see him being replaced… I agree with most posts.. he was coming around and finding his way, again
Little Jake is thee BEST !
Kids NEED to know life isnt all peaches and cream! Look at all these teenagers that are on a successful show and scratch their heads when their show is cancelled! Learn early to set yourself up later in life that somethings dont last forever!
I was warming up to the young actor. It has been fun to see the strides he made in the role over his time on the show. Unless it is to age the character I see no reason to make a change at this time.
Horrible decision to recast. James is phenomenal as Little Jake. Hope they are Not SORAS him. All the current kids, Jake, Spencer, Cameron Aiden & Emma should age naturally.
James is a terrific young actor and I was really glad TPTB brought him back as Jake. I REALLY WANT TO KNOW THE REASONING BEHIND THIS!
I thought he did a super job at playing the creepy-spooky-super messed up child! I think he acted exactly the way a child under Helena’s control for 4 years would have acted.
This just seems like another bone-headed move the new writers are making.
Totally agree with you– I think -well he did seem creepy weird but once he got to that hospital that I will not name after he was hit by a car- he no longer had that creepy look and his hair was different, too. So is this the new writers making a change or what??
I totally agree! This kid knocked it out of the park! They should have left Joeclyn and all the other kids alone let them grow up like Robin did! There is no need to soras and fill up the screen with teen drama! There is plenty of time for that let’s focus on the people we have! What a shame!
I agree Jenni. The aged Joss for no good reason!
Exactly I said the same thing GH is going to regret letting James go, he was just awarded Universal Studios star award you go James !!!
Wth what is that all about? James has been doing a fab job as jake (scary) !! They are probably going to make him older!!
awww,, I like James Nigbor..
He’s like a kid from a horror movie!
James is unique, he’s got the eerie going on!
We knew he was your kind of kid…lol
Ahhha haaa! you got me, Jimh 🙂
So, does this mean Jake will now be a teen?
There is no ‘teen love’ on GH. If ‘they’ were to SORAS Jake, he could be Jocelyn’s boyfriend. It’s time we see that girl in circulation, on a regular basis…..in a scholastic environment.
Did they age Jocelyn…i missed some eps. but Emma is still little Emma when she visits Anna…oh, well a lot of GH rarely makes any sense these days…lol
@jimh.
Yes, Jimmy, Jocelyn/Josslyn is now a teen. I just wonder why ‘they’ have decided to age Jake.
I’d like to think a fresh storyline with some of these youngsters would be welcomed.
A teen story is ok if done right with good actors but they didnt do well with TJ and Molly…
I agree, Jimmy. Haley Pulos has a bright career ahead of her….so versatile. In my opinion, her counterpart, Tequan Richmond, is a bleak actor for me. No charisma.
I could say the same for the avalanche of young newbies at Days.
They could write decent stuff for the children….i see them do it on Britains Coronation Street…and they never soras them…they are allowed to grow up realistically and act like real children…Simon has been acting out…his mother is dead and his father moved away…he lives with his stepmother whom he has physically abused when angered…Simon is 12…he still a troubled kid and his family is trying to help him…he currently left to visit his father…when he returned he is still a 12 year old…i love the realism of this show but it too can have its unbelievable soapish moment…like the dead body buried underneath a bedroom floor and no smell from the decaying corpse after all these months…unless he isnt dead and somehow escaped down the sewage tunnel…lol
Yes, Jimmy. Ideally, children should be able to grow up on screen, as many have.
As I said, there must be something of utter importance going down …..something involving Jake, which a child James Nigbor’s age cannot handle or perceive.
It’s hard to shake the feeling that Helena is, indeed, involved somehow.
I doubt that GH is going to “age” Jake. I’m sure it’s to replace the former Jake with a BETTER actor. Come on; the kid playing that role was pretty awful!! There’s no reason to age Jake; they’ll have to age all the kids if they do that. Isn’t it funny how the kids age, but the parents never do? (heavy sigh)…I wish it was like that in real life. lol
What’s up? I couldn’t bear when they brought back a dead child. This kid was good in the part. Just like Jason “Stone Cold”.
Glad they are getting a new actor! Didn’t like the boys acting even before he was “killed” way back!
Ice cold!
James is a terrific actor, big mistake GH…They recast the role, what a joke.
I agree, Johnny. James is such a good little actor. To do this so soon after his return makes no sense; unless there is a vital storyline waiting for an older Jake. Enter Helena, anyone?
I hope there is a method to this madness, CeeCee, and it’s spelled H-E-L-E-N-A!! James really captured the essence of this little trainwreck of a Cassadine-reared kiddie…..he looked so eerie, and yet, charmingly cherubic, at the same time. (Like a child star from a ’50’s sitcom or Disney movie……..) Plus, he was super with RoHo…after all this time, Franco had finally found himself a like-minded playmate, and now he’s gone! Bah…..
I am shocked and saddened to hear this. For one thing, the twins have done such a good job playing a disturbed child. Secondly … why would they age him up right in the middle of his big storyline? And third … if this means we’re also going to lose Spencer and Emma … then TIIC at GH are letting a group of very talented and beloved soap kids go. We’ve heard spoilers recently that Emma is coming back to visit Anna. If it’s not Brooklyn … then who cares?
We did hear that it”s Brooklyn. It was established when she left that she’d be making sporadic visits.
What is wrong with GH? They just can’t go recast a role that had so much hype! This is the second biggest mistake they did, next to recasting the role of Jason with Billy Miller. I tell you, this role should have been given to Michael Muhney! He can totally pull off stone cold and he looks a little bit like Steve Burton! I tell you, I will never forgive GH for the biggest mistakes in history in soap history. Well that and ousting Michael Muhney, now that’s something that will never be forgotten any time soon.
In case they forgotten, Nigbor played the character when Luke was leaving, and now they are throwing him out again. This is Drew Garrett being replaced with Chad Duell all over again. I still miss Garrett and hope he is having success outside of General Hospital.
The present Jake is a great actor. If they want to “age” him, then they will have to age Spencer, Emma etc; It’s v. difficult to get good child actors . I hope they know what they are doing. Ridiculous!
I am holding out hope MM is hied as Valentin Cassadine!
I wouldnt worry much about little Jake. He is a kid. I think he picked up the pace and was good with Franco but lets wait and see what GH does before we jump off a bridge!
Drew Garret was a better Michael.
So true, that is what made Jake’s return so poignant .. he was played by the same actor! James has done a terrrific job as Jake, this gives me one less reason to tune in.
The little actor was a fish out of water when it came to acting. He was not a child actor per se, just a cute kid.
You got it, Lou. He was a cute kid with no talent.
this is terrible he has played Jake from please keep him on
I liked how he creeped me out…stupid GH!!!
Me, too. That was his appeal. All the other kids on GH, except Spencer (where’s he been?!?), are boring.
I believe the actor who plays Spenser is off doing another project at the moment.
Spencer is on a Disney show called Stuck in the Middle. He knew better than to wait around for scripts from the new regime at GH.
I’m one of the few people who really does not enjoy the little kids on the show. For one, I think they are portrayed as either sickly sweet and perfect (Emma) or obnoxiously advanced (Spencer). Jake was the exception. He seemed like a real kid. A kid with problems, grant you, but still a kid. Cameron is portrayed as a real kid too. Emma and Spencer are portrayed as mini-adults. I never enjoyed watching them very much. It’s nothing against the actors — they are good actors who are clearly giving the writers and directors what they want from their performances. It’s more how their characters have been conceived that rubs me the wrong way.
He creeped me out too; with her poor performances.
Why????
This is sad news. I like James as Jake and always have.
Thank the Lord! Sorry but the kid is flatter than paint. He needed to go.
Ah, another honest person. WTG, Joe!
I’m so sorry for James. I think he was improving as an actor, especially once he didn’t have to play “Stone Cold” anymore. His scenes with Franco were charming.
What does this mean for Becky Herbst? If Jake is recast, then his story is ongoing, so presumably Liz’s story is ongoing. Does that mean that Becky signed a contract, or that GH is recasting her, too? Any news on casting calls at GH?
Sorry for the kid, but he was so robotic.
Hard today watch, always looking anywhere but the camera.
Agree 100%
~ Within the Nigbor tweet exchange, it was mentioned that “the 29th” was James last GH episode. ~
She corrected that on Twitter saying the 3rd (March) was his last air date.
I am very sad that he’s leaving. I enjoy him as Jake. I think he’s a fine actor, but I’m not one to judge that. I just hope that this decision wasn’t made because of all the vileness I’ve seen grown adults say about the child and character. I wish him a ton of success.
It’s not a matter of “judging;.” you shouldn’t feel badly about that. James is indeed a cute kid, but he’s a horrible actor (and most people don’t want to say so, because he IS a child, but anyone who has seen his constantly poor attempts at a performance, KNOW this is true). Maybe he just wants to be a kid for now, and an actor later on in life. That’s okay. He never looked like he wanted to even be there; always dead-pan, expressionless, monotone, awkward. He possessed NO natural talent at all.
Wish him luck, god bless him, but may it was for the best, Disney is better, for theses kids, especially playing a creepy kid, but I still think Jake belongs to Lucky
Well if the tradition of GH raiding Y&R cast and vice versa continues, the only one on Y&R they could steal is the guy who plays Ben’s son Max— who’s creepy too.
All kidding aside if they recast with an older child actor it might solely to be able to have the kid on camera for longer periods of time– there are all kind of rules governing child actors, so the decision to recast might be that reason especially if the role is going to be expanded requiring more air time, and it looks like it is heading in that direction — an older child might be able to handle the increased work load better–and they can keep him on set longer saving time, which saves money.
Makes perfect sense, Mary…didn’t even think of that !!
Everything you stated in reference to SARS, in fact, is very true, but sadly, I believe the role was recast because the kid who had it was a terrible actor and the fans finally got to the producers. There was a TON of (not very nice) online comments about young James (in reference to his lack of talent), continuously, since the first day he returned to GH. First, I thought, “Give the kid a chance.” Then I thought, “Okay, he’s been kidnapped that’s why he acts so drifty.” But then, I noticed his blank, non-talented performances went on and on and on. GH was right to get rid of him; he’s awful! Maybe later on in life he can try again; he’s only 9 and he’s got plenty of time.
Why this actor get so much Publicity
its on Facebook..its on SOS
Just get Jasam a Baby girl..
I’m especially, SAD
disheartened…that this has happened…
WHAT ON EARTH, is going on, with Rebecca Herbst ????
I truly thought he was finally coming along… especially with Roger Howarth and it was still on… with Rebecca Herbst
argh!
aside from being a cutie patootie…
shucks… my little Jake… will be missed
that is terrible he was a great actor and will be missed
No, he was certainly NOT a great actor; not even close.
he was a great actor for a young boy and made great creepy faces . he was a cute little guy and I still will miss him
Not surprised they are always changing some body, they probably want another Spencer type. We’ll all live.
You need a young Camryn Grimes or a Johnathan Jacjson or a Kimberly Mccoulligh you have thrown this kid into major story got to have some chops
Sorry Lordy misspelling of names
However you feel about the actor, the whole thing just smells.
Yet, another ASSNINE move by abc. Those losers that are in charge cannot be more moronic. James was doing such a fantastic job and was getting his acting chops going and then abc comes in a WACKS him off at the knees. I was so Happy when they brought him (the actor) back from the so called dead.
What is frikken wrong with abc? First the dumbest move ever in history getting rid of All My Children & then One Life to Live. Dropping OLTL from their daytime lineup when it was their highest rated Soap was done by a moron Brian Frons. I will BOYCOTT abc and I will only watch GH and that is ALL. I want to thank abc because now I watch NBC & CBS shows. 🙂 FARK them!
Hey Joe,
By watching GH you broke your boycott of ABC .. LOL
You might as well watch all get primetime soaps that ABC offers, some really good ones you’re missing, your boycott is now nil.. 😉
I agree – ABC has done some REAL boners, but getting rid of this non-talented kid was NOT one of them. He was a TERRIBLE actor! As far as we’re concerned, this is something ABC finally got right!
I think the will SORAS him and that’s where recast comes in and had to do it at some point and that will allow the show to have more storylines for jake in the future.
i think they are going to age Jake into a teenager. the show doesn’t really have a younger set
Damn shame, James was a little cutie and I thought he played the role of Jake very well. Exactly the way you would expect a kid that was supposedly under the control of Helena Cassadine for all of those years to act. They must have something different in mind for the role. I don’t know. Some of the casting decisions Frank Valentini makes really puzzle me. We can’t get Tristan Rogers back on contract, but we need a new Jake, when the current one was doing just fine.
He is a wonderful actor. Are the parents pulling him out of the show? We will miss him.
I just want to say that I wish that General Hospital would come up with better story lines than mob stories. Maybe have a little happiness once in a while. I think I may start watching The Young and the Restless since it has alot of the old GH characters.
Anne, over at Y&R, Steve Burton is FINALLY starting to shine and Kelly Sullivan who was Connie/Kate on GH is doing a fine job to. Dont forget Jason Thompson who replaced Billy Miller’s character on Y&R. I have not heard ONE complaint over the recast. Y&R is pretty good right now and you will probably enjoy the change from the mob!
I think this is sad news. He was just beginning to settle in and now someone else will be brought in to jar the fans once again. I think that’s a bad decision. They should have let the kid grow more.
And if the rumors about aging him are true they’ll be making another big mistake. Fans aren’t stupid. They remember what year certain characters were born and who should be older than who. All the kids on the show, with the exception of Rocco, Maxi’es little girl, Avery, Leo, and Sabrina’s kid were born before I started watching, so I don’t know; but I can tell when things get out of whack with the SOARs. (Hello, Jocelyn!) Doesn’t work well.
I like this young actor and think he was doing a great job. He is 100 times better than the guy that plays Theo on Days.
Rebecca Herbst and General Hospital might have worked out a new deal for her to stay with the show. They are going to SORAS both Cameron and Jake to teenagers and this will be a Liz’s new storyline in dealing with her now 13-14 year old kids. One of them will be paired with Joss and be a nice respectful kid while the other one will be a real hell raiser that constantly gets into trouble.
I intimated as much, Jay. I guess we had the same idea?
I ssssoooooo hope this; RH and GH work out a new deal !
this would have been “my” last straw… and would have shucked GH
Jake was the bees knees and king of cute
the bonding moments were coming along… I’m so glad at least the posts as a whole are saying as such
I hope GH still continues on with the attraction with Franco…. Liz … “He’s Yours”
I loved the last Joss… now she could be a hell raiser…
did any one catch that movie about Dolly Parton… “coat of many colors”
LOL… I was so surprised to see our little Josselyn in the movie… she was great!
the one who totally knocked my off my chair… was Faith… Sharon daughter from Y&R… AMAZING !
on Y&R.. I thought.. Faith was the odd one…not on “coat of many colors” you could have knocked me over with a feather… the way she acted her little heart out… convincingly so… and I LOVE HER… she can act
fans are right tho… with Spence gone… Emma gone…
wow… this Is going to smart nevertheless… NO JAKE… argh! my heart… w/Liz’
That was so nice of his parents to reach out to the fans. It was also cool GH used the original Jake when he came back on the show. At first James struggled a bit but he has gotten better and him and Billy Miller were finding a groove as father and son. Either FV didnt feel the same or they are aging the boy? Either way, good luck James and I know you will show up on something new because you have a bright future buddy.
she later corrected that last air date because he was on 3/3
GOOD!!!! That kid is a horrible actor. It made no sense to cast him in such an important role and he couldn’t act. There are WAY TOO MANY good child actors out there, so I have no idea why they settled on him. Maybe he’s related to someone at ABC?
Think about it — the kid that portrays Spencer is an EXCELLENT actor. Emma was pretty good, too. I loved little Jocelyn when she was obsessed with “Children of the Corn.” She played her role with such gusto, and you could totally tell that she was Carly’s daughter! It was just a poor choice in casting by choosing this kid to play Jake.
Oh well. Hopefully, they’ll get a much better actor this time around. This kid needs to do some community theater and enroll in some acting classes.
Keep James and recast Morgan!
Yeeeessss!!
That is a very good decision… he is a very cute boy and certainly a good resemblance to his dad…. but he needs some acting lessons if he is to continue on…. from what I read, he had not done any acting since he was a baby at GH so throwing him into a role like this was not ever fair to the kid….
” I”VE …. GOT … IT ”
DAYS of OUR Lives needs to hire him as Parker…. !!!!! they just aged Parker.. and he’s not bringing it….
Parker is Chloe son…
he’d be great with Nicole as well
come to think of IT… with all the SORAS they did on DAYS… they don’t have kids… either
Abs, Gabs, and Theresa have babies
Well, if they age Jake, they have to age Danny, Cam, Aiden, Leo, Avery, Rocco ,Spencer, Emma..otherwise there is no way any story will be believable.So they will all have to be let go too. And with these young kids aged – especially if they go to teens, they have to then age Molly, Kristina, TJ, Michael, Morgan and Kiki.cause you can’t have kids born years after them almost the same age as them. Why isn’t GH thinking before acting? James ( Jake) was the child taken by Helena – he is the one who came home – who better to tell what happened to him during those years than the child who played the part?
The little boy does a good job. Some say he acts weird. Duh. He’s supposed to be mentally disturbed after living with Helena. Now will they SORAS all the kids. Horrible. Will they all be fired? Makes no sense.
He is excellent for the part of Lil Jake. He even has the look of his character and it will be a mistake to recast him, but good luck!!
I am glad they recast the role. The child they were using seemed purely evil and I felt no empathy for him.
Can’t believe he was replaced with a younger peppy child. And they still say via Franco he reminds me at that age type line.
Can’t even see it
I think this is SO sad! You played the part perfectly. Best of luck James!
