OLTL's Sam and Jack SORAS'ed

LoPorto Off OLTL
Eagle-eyed OLTL viewers may have noticed a slightly older Sam (talking about Santa) in the Manning household. Patrick Gibbons Jr. is now playing the role. Next to be recast is wise-cracking Jack, who was played by Carmen LoPorto for the last 3 1/2 years. LoPorto made the announcement on his Facebook page. "I got a call this week that they SORAS'ed Jack and I am no longer a member of the Manning Family. It's been fun and an experience that I will never forget. Thank You All Again. Here's to bigger and better things to come in 2011." No word on who will play the older Jack.

Beautiful. I've never wanted a kid to be brutally bludgeoned as much as I did Carmen LoPorto's Jack. I doubt that will change with the recast though.

That stinks. He was a mini-Todd and played perfectly off of TSJ. I wonder if they are going to age him to the current high school group to mix it up with Matthew, Destiny, Dani and the gang.

Since Shane is apparently getting a story, I think he'll just be SORAS'ed to his age.

I read this over the weekend and it does suck.

I like OLTL because it seems to let most of the kids grow up in the roles. LoPorto was so good, especially opposite TSJ. I don't get SORASing him and trying to spark another teen scene. The Matthew/Dani/Nate/Destiny teen scene is just now really coming into it's own. No need for more teens. Let Jack, Shane, etc grow into their roles like Matthew, Starr, etc did. Stupid. Jack was such a dynamic character with LoPorto in the role.

Oddly enough, I had a feeling during the Christmas episode that Frons or someone else may insist on getting rid of him. His voice was breaking and his look was changing. They may see an opportunity to bring on more guys like the Ford brothers in looks. I'm really worried for Eddie Alderson because I'm convinced he's only still there because of KA and RSW.
