William deVry to Guest Star on Upcoming Episode of ‘NCIS: Los Angeles’

The treatment of Julian Jerome was more criminal than almost anything the man did himself. The hypocritical judgments of Julian by Sam and others who were eager to forgive Sonny’s evil deeds were appalling. They wrote him into a corner…why? Too handsome to be on the same show as Sonny or Jason? That’s what it seems like. I had hoped Will would replace Richard Burgi as Ashland Locke. That at least would have raised the heat quotient on Y&R. I hope he finds a home in either day- or prime time.
Holding a knife to his wife’s throat, killing people by leaving a bomb in a restaurant, chloroforming Monica to steal Wiley… let’s not sugarcoat the character. The “Olivia/Cyrus/Nelle made me do it” excuse just doesn’t hold up. The popularity of the Alexis/Julian pairing was the main reason he stayed on the show as long as he did.
It wasn’t my intention to sugarcoat anything. I’m just saying that the deeds of Sonny, Jason, Carly, Ava…these all get either forgotten or swept so far under the rug that we’ll never see them again. And I don’t agree that his tenure depended on Alexis; with better writing they’d have had another leading man to reckon with, instead of dull Drew and dopey Dante.
Agree Soaphound, completely! SO many killers and more and now they are heros… and don’t forget Nina ripped Avery from Ava’s loins and now they are besties! Julian was written into a corner and I know from actually meeting and talking to him, he wanted to stay. Too much hotness, I guess!!♀️
Mom2530, hotness is right. Even the back of that man’s NECK used to stoke my fires. I keep hoping he’ll show up on YR or DOOL.
You do know somebody wrote that garbage right..citing character flaws when the main topic is about why this actor should still be on gH is the sign of a mark…They clearly had issues with the actor for them to go so deeply to destroy his character…They didn’t treat the Peter/Heinrich character as badly as they wrote Julian and Wes Ramsey is a terrible actor
He has always had a cowardly history, even before Sonny came on the scene. And don’t forget he slithered into town under an assumed name and Ava killed Connie to keep his secret. Oh, and didn’t he gut Carrlos like a fish? Tried to kill Brad, too, but couldn’t even get that right; hurt Lucas instead. He was never that strong of a character going back to when his father was alive.
Agreed Alic When first introduced, Victor and Olivia Jerome were the most compelling members of the family. Victor Jerome’s infatuation with Lucy and Olivia Jerome’s redemption with Colton were both good storylines. Going back in GH history, it’s puzzling that they never retconned Lucas to be Robert’s son. However, that would’ve taken him out of Bobbie’s orbit and into Mac’s after Robert’s presumed death in the early 90s. With responsibility for the perceived “first deaths” of Duke Lavery and Olivia Jerome, Julian was written according to character when he did all the bad things over the past 5 years.

Right, Steve. The actor himself is skilled and seems likeable, but his character has always been weak, and he could never quite do the right thing. He was a bad mobster and a dodgy “reformed” mobster.
Much missed from GH, but will watch him in this show…
Listen situations happen behind the scenes something was going on he got sideways with somebody it’s all politics with the soaps as everything is !
So true… always a soap opera behind the soap opera ! I will alway enjoy watching William Devry… just because he is a fellow Canadian !
If a Devil remembers correctly, it was more an issue of William being able to live in Canada & work in the US… which proved to be extremely difficult during the worst of the pandemic when the border was effectively closed. So he chose Canada. Given that they have an actual health care system… and there was a pandemic going on… that was a logical choice.
Now of course you could argue about the way the character was written out, considering he pretty much undid any “redemption” he might have earned since his return from the dead.
