Well, "David" is definitely Jack Jr based on this youtube audition



This actor is awful, but I'll accept the Jen recast :P
Is it just me or does that actor look a lot like Chad? I am all for Jack JR giving Jennifer a hard time. Someone needs to. :applause: :applause: :applause: I am so mad that they are casting JJ without Matthew Ashford being there :redface: :redface: :redface:
He reminds me of the guy who played Nathan.

Yikes! Please tell me that they'll find a decent young actor that resembles Jack and Jen for this role? So far, I am not impressed with what I've seen.

The only positive I will say is that the writing is OK! At least he told her what many J & J fans are saying..

Sometimes I'm shocked at how difficult it is to find a young actor with some natural talent. DAYS seems to have had some success with people like CM, FS, KM, and BB, but if the videos are indicative of the only people they can find for JJ....oy.

Gack! Worst of all, by far! At least the other two were making some effort--this guy acts like he's reading off cue cards. Totally wooden. And the look is wrong too. MA is lanky, lithe, and built like a distance runner. MR is petite and fine-boned. A kid of theirs surely wouldn't turn out so stocky and blunt-faced. Actor #1 looked too old, but his body language, all slumped shoulders and folded arms, did appear convincingly adolescent. Actor #2 looked more age-appropriate and he had the right build--thin and angular, although his diction was lousy. Actor #3--don't call us, we'll call you.

Dear God, I'm all for a JJ recast that will give Jen hell for getting back together with Daniel so soon after Jack's death, and that dialogue was AMAZING, but PLEASE don't let one of those guys get hired! I would rather see Mia return than have one of these guys on the show, and that says a lot!

From laughing so hard, maybe.

Holy shit, I think I would fucking love to see the blonde guy on the show. At least for a week or so. That voice alone...it tickles me. I think he would be an awesomely hilarious leading man.

I can just imagine his random nasal tone vs. Dr. Dan's constipated-confusion...epic. Just, epic.

Thank you so much for sharing that.

Ha. More like from frustration because someone at DAYS probably watched that reel and shouted, "BINGO!!"

Actually, people in Salem say that all the time (e.g., Doug and Julie, Eve and Frankie, Bill, Laura, Mike Horton, Jack, Jennifer and Abigail, to name a few)

The dialogue makes it pretty clear that the writers are reading the boards. It's word for word what people have been posting for the past three months. Just a shame they don't get plot ideas from here as well.

But see, I don't like that. It proves that they're hearing at least part of the audience's discontent, but they're not doing anything to fundamentally address the well-articulated concerns being expressed. Thus, they're mocking us.

The same thing happened during the Jack/Jennifer/Daniel triangle. They wrote a scene where Jennifer called herself "fickle" -- a term used widely on the boards and on Twitter at the time. Hope assured her she wasn't. And they had a little laugh over it. The writers didn't really address viewer concerns -- they just yanked the story away from those three and handed it over to Austin/Carrie/Rafe.

Knowing that the writers are fully aware of our outrage doesn't console me. On the contrary, it frustrates me to no end that they deliberately and cynically are toying with the audience and basically thumbing their noses at us.
