Don't even know why they even re-casting Eve. I barely remember CR.

If they made Kassie and Shawn Christian the rooting couple and moved Jennifer onto Liam I would be okay. But that's not going to happen. Jennifer will win over nu-Eve and it will continued to be shoved down our throats that Danifer is a supercouple that is meant to be. Heck, Dan probably won't even sleep with Eve because he's saved for Jennifer. I am tired of fake Fetch angst. I don't want them together

I thought that she could be an Eve Donovan recast the other day but then I checked her age and it seemed way to close to Charles Shaughnessy. Well, it seems that it wasn't an issue for TPTB, even if they tried to have Charlotte Ross back first. I guess she was asking for too much money or some kind of flexible schedule. I realize now that CR was trying to rally the fans on twitter to put pressure on TPTB so they agree to her conditions, it didn't work.

For a show that has recasted key characters like Laura, Jennifer (failed) Jack, Bo, Billie, Kimberly briefly, Austin, Kate, and so many other major characters. I honestly don't see the big deal in recasting Eve.
Most of the time I don't mind re-casts. Of the most recent ones we've had, both Eric and Will have been terrific IMO.

But there are just some characters who are so unique and the reason they are so unique is because of the personality that the actor gave them that went far beyond anything that was on the written page. Eve is one of those characters IMO.

I'm keeping an open mind about this. I actually prefer this to KDP playing an entirely new character in this age range when other established characters of a similar age are being underused (Kayla, Adrienne, etc.).

I wonder if she's moving to L.A., if it's temporary, or if she's going to fly in to shoot based on the shooting schedule.
Frankly, I hope it's temporary, and CR returns down the line when her schedule allows her to do so.

This is exactly how I feel as well.

Wish I could be excited about this. I adore Kassie, but the idea the that she is probably in a story with overated and overused Shawn/Daniel and Jen/Theresa makes me sad. I wish she could have been a new character and involved with my Justin and Adrienne in a story. Kassie and Wally have some great chemistry when they preformed together at super soap weekend that ABC used to have. Always wanted to see those two in a story together. But sadly, that's doesn't looking promising. :(
And besides Charolette Ross will always be Eve to me.

Exactly what I meant about type in an earlier post. Kassie's personality is not the same as Charlotte's, that coupled with the age discrepancy, and the fact that they talked to Charlotte first (even with her blessing). But if the writing it there, who knows.

While I LOVE Kassie, and she looks great for her age, isn't she a little old to play this role?
