He was spending time with his band but as you can see that didn't go anywhere. I guess it's right about TV actors being type cast and well instead of him being something he's basically Spike.

I think given the chance James could be a major star and walk home with an Oscar someday but from the looks of his IMDB page he's not getting anything.

Quoted from Alan_Holman
I'm probably the only person on this entire discussion board who gives the soap opera PASSIONS any credit, but here goes ...

This Tuesday they're beginning a storyline that pays homage to disaster movies.  The show takes place in a small sea-side New England town of Harmony, and on Tuesday's episode, the town will get hit with an earthquake.  The week after that, they get hit with a Tsunami and a central character dies.  

The story includes enough characters that they film a new 35 minute (plus 25 minutes of commercials to fill the hour) episode per day, but they film them more than a month in advance, so they actually edited the best parts of this upcoming storyline into a movie called "PASSIONS: DISASTER" which premiered in a cinema at Universal Studios on July 12th.  That movie was a highly condensed -- but still two hours long -- version of the upcoming storyline that begins on Tuesday's episode.  And after the storyline airs fully on TV, they're considering releasing the movie edit of it onto DVD.  I like that show enough to buy it.  

Anyone else give even the slightest of a damn?


I used to watch that show every day I wasn't in school. Recently, I have only watched a little bit of it but I like it. Timing's a bit off, I usually wake up right when it airs I heard that Luis will be written out of the show. Maybe that's the guy who'll be taken out.

I'm glad to hear this.  Spike was probably the best character on the show (maube second to Drusilla).  I'm surprised that he doesn't get more work.


Phil


Yeah, me too. I loved Spike and he was so good at that character.

That makes sense.  If Luis dies, Tabatha's curse on him and Sheridan can go on for another generation, thus giving the story a much needed extention.  With all the great payoffs lately, it's felt like the show's been drawing to a close, and although that flavor makes for fun television, it's also dangerous territory for a soap opera, because soaps are supposed to last forever.

MY PREDICTIONS:  Theresa will develop real feelings for Alastair, but Alastair will hook-up with Edna, and Beth will be given the Crane Empire.  Sheridan and Beth will both come into vampiric powers at the same time, and they'll question Alastair about it.  He'll explain that vampire powers run in the crane blood, but he's been restraining and hiding everyone's powers, even from themselves, with some kind of an orb.  Sheridan and Beth will join with Alastair as vampires to rule the world.  Gwen won't understand why her friend Sheridan is now a cold-hearted bitch.  Ethan -- and the Bennetts and Russels -- will fight the Cranes, but Tabatha will join with Alastair to repress everyone.  Charity and Grace will return -- with their full powers -- and crumble the Crane empire.  The end.

I hear that Six Feet Under is stopping at series 5!?! I've only seen series one so far (So please nobody ruin it for me with spoilers) as I can't afford to buy the other boxsets yet, but that show is quality! I can't believe it!

On the topic of soap operas, I was soooooo so sad when 'Sunset Beach' was pulled by Spelling and whichever network showed it. I loved that show!! Dammit, no other man alive has dimples as gorgeous as Eddie Cibrian does. You can't beat the fake looking sets and cheesy one liners and outrageously stupid storylines, they're great!!! I say bring that show back!!!

Haven't seen Day of Our Lives, but have caught some others while holidaying in Cyprus during my siesta break! LOL! Young and the Restless, Bold and the Beautiful etc..

Well that's not official, that's Charlie Murphy trying to get in the news and make himself famous or more so. Until Dave or Comedy central say it's over... It's not over.

In that article Comedy Central said the door is always open for Dave to return and they do have half a season done so maybe he needed some personal time but someday he could be back.

Maybe, I said its official since Charlie Murphy and Dave are close friends; if anyone would know it would be him. We shall see, hopefully it’s not true.

I would have liked to have seen SUNSET BEACH.  I love corny.  Plus, I just looked it up on IMDB and learned that it had some of the same directors as PASSIONS, which I love.  Plus, James E. Reilly -- who created PASSIONS, and is the head writer of PASSIONS -- was the head-writer of SUNSET BEACH for a while in 1998.  John Reilly, who played Del Douglas on SUNSET BEACH, currently plays Alastair Crane on PASSIONS.  Leigh Taylor-Young, who played Elaine Stevens on Sunset Beach in 1997, currently plays Katherine Crane on Passions.  Kathleen Noone, who played Bette Katzenkazrahi during the entire run of Sunset Beach, plays Edna Wallace in Passions.

I haven't seen PASSIONS, Alan, but sounds like I would like it. It's a shame you can't watch 'Sunset Beach'. Perhaps it's re-runs will be on in the future? I wish we had PASSIONS here in the UK! I like that corny stuff too. It's so unrealistic and a complete break from the real world.

Andy.  PASSIONS is an acquired taste; however, the character Tabatha Lenox has a british accent, so ... maybe you could acquire a taste for it.  lol.

For anyone who wants to know, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation has moved to Universal Studios to shoot their sixth season while a new show called "The Unit" is taking over their old set in Santa Clarita.
