...Craig Montgomery?

According to We Love Soaps, it's true!

Holy crap! I've been wanting JL to be cast on a soap ever since the demise of PC, but as ATWT's Craig? I just don't know...

I guess it could turn out alright (JL is definitely talented enough), but I just personally think that Scott Bryce and Hunt Block are the only ones that should be playing Craig.

He's a good actor. I wish they'd bring back Hunt though.

Scott Bryce should be playing Craig ... this is absolutely unnecessary.

I can't choose between Jon and Hunt. But since we've seen Hunt recently on OLTL, I think it's going to be fantastic to see Jon again. Yay!

I think with Hunt and with Scott it came down to a situation like Rauch/Lemay/Reinholt - there was too much tension on set with Hunt and Goutman & with Goutman and Bryce. They couldn't work together.

I personally would love to have Scott back. he is the only one that should be playing Craig but I gave Hunt a chance and I gave the other guy a chance too. So if I was watching I would give Lindstrom a chance too.

Sorry, But Scott Bryce is and always will be Craig as far as I'm concerned!
Wonder how long it will take CG to find something petty with JL's portrayal and axe him all of a sudden?

Scott Bryce IS Craig Montgomery. Love Lindstrom but he is totally miscast as Craig. Another dumb move by Goutman.

Hey, I'm tickled to death but it's because I've been a fan of Lindstrom for oh... about... FOREVER. I understand your concerns about bringing back Craig and why Bryce had been so abruptly let go.

I wonder if Jon knows that Chris Goutman is the anti-Christ? :eyeroll:

OBK, I don't think it will take Jon long to figure out that Goutman is the soap genre's answer to Satan!!! LOL!!! Truly loved JL as Kevin on PORT CHARLES and GH. Hell, I think Lindstrom and Larry Lau would make a hot older gay couple who could mentor Luke and Noah!!!! However, TPTB at ATWT don't have the guts to go there....!!!!

Good Lord, what has Jon walked into? :drunk:

However, the show must've really made one hell of a pitch to get him!

Jon and I do know each other and I congratulated him on his return to daytime. I just want people to give him a chance - I can't help it, I adore him. And this is coming from someone who also loves Scott Bryce.

I'm happy for Jon, but I sadly won't be watching. I gave up on ATWT a long time ago, and as of now, have no plans of going back.

I watched him on GH. No doubt he is beyond talented. I think I will just have to wait and see, But I'm not watching ATWT that much anyway. I was more mad over the way Scott Bryce was treated more than anything. Also the fact that SB's portrayal made care about Craig and not find him so ruthless. I'm sure JL was not cheap, must have cost them pretty penny ;)

Wow.

I LOVE Lindstrom. I've been wanting him back on daytime for a long time. I'm not too down on ATWT but I just can't see him as Craig and boy is this a dig at Bryce. I will give him a chance in the role even though it's hard to see him as Craig. I do hate what they did to Bryce. Goutman is just...ugh. I'm almost tempted not to watch.

Too bad Jon had to go there. It would've been better if he were in another role there or on another show. It will be interesting to see at least. I did not see this coming at all though.

This is a slap in the face to Bryce, for sure. I wonder how long it'll be before the writers write Craig into another corner and are forced to send him packing once again.

I give it a few months. Maybe Goutman will fire Lindstrom over the phone on New Year's Day. :hmmph:

^Wouldn't surprise me.

I feel bad for Lindstrom because I can see his mistreatment coming from a mile away, especially considering the character he is playing. PC screwed him over in it's last year and a half and it pains me to believe he will get screwed over on ATWT too.

I know. He really does deserve a lot better. I think Y&R would be a great place for him, but with Eileen working there again, it could be awkward.
