Fair well my Prince…
ooh that cuts deep, first Theo now Chance. My two favorites…I shall watch with a guarded heart from now on.
After the worst year of many people’s lives, 2020, the powers that be call Donny Boaz on Christmas Eve to let him know his contract will not be renewed. That’s just disgusting.
Dropping Donny Boaz at this juncture is mind boggling! They have just started the Abby infertility story and, according to social media, they are not even considering recasting the character. If that is the case then why did they make such a big fuss over the wedding and start the infertility story so soon after if the production staff had so little faith in Donny Boaz and the Chance Chancellor character in general? This raises serious questions over the professional qualifications of this production staff. If this can happen then anything can. Don’t be surprised at even more bad news… Read more »
Agreed. The ax is positioned to fall again.
Y&R fans were only just beginning to grit their teeth over the prospect of watching Mariah endure a 9 month pregnancy and now what….nothing? What is to become of Abby’s childbirth fantasies? Do they just disappear as if it never happened? Does she pursue another sperm donor? Imagine the kind of emotional ringer that is going to be forced upon us once Abby discovers that her newlywed husband has abandoned her. That prospect was clearly not in the cards when the writers originally concocted this storyline.
“She is in my head and in my heart”. Words mouthed by Kyle Abbott that hammered the last nail in the coffin of the Kyle and Lola marriage. That was the last young star couple that Y&R attempted before Abby and Chance.
Not at all. I understand actors come and go, characters get written off the show. This situation is beyond that. As viewers we were not given any hint that things with Abby and Chance would go south in one episode. Chance is the most reliable, loyal character on the show, as is evident with him standing by Adam. Chance would never up and leave Abby, never, he adores her. How are we supposed to swallow this, nothing about Chance leaving will seem believable.
I have been questioning the qualifications of this production team for awhile now.
Why would Y&R fire Chance? what was the horrible thing he did (or didnt) do? I don’t understand- this is devastating news.
OH MY! I just saw on the INTERNET that DANNY BOAZ’S(CHANCE) final appearance on Y&R will be MONDAY FEB 1ST !!! He is not being fired according to the INTERNET. ALI….and CHATTERS, what say you????
I’m glad Theo is coming back for a moment. I wonder why… do you think it’s possible that Kyle and Sally path could have crossed when he was in NY and something happened between them that Theo knows?
Ali, you are so amazing to deliver this show to us every single week. You are doing a great job with audio or video. Thank you so much. I hope you get to enjoy a little more time for yourself. I used only to listen to the podcasts when I commuted to work but lately, I have been watching the videos. You are phenomenal either way and I know we are grateful for you and this community. So thank you for always caring but it is ok if you need to change things up. We will still be here. We… Read more »
Wow. Just read that Donny Boaz is “out” at Y & R and tomorrow is his last day. His statement says it was not his choice, but he leaves thankful for the opportunity (something like that). Gee—I wonder who will be playing Chance now LOL!!! I guess those wedding photos will be just fine after all???
Woah. Chance’s final air date is Monday!!! Danny said on Instagram: “I was told that Chance is NOT being replaced or killed off. He’s just not gonna be there anymore.”
So, after tomorrow, Chance just… disappears?!
Yes, I just read that. So, after Chance is told he has a low sperm count. Gets a strange phone call. He just disappears.
What are the powers that be doing at Y&R?
What was point of this couple getting this rushed wedding and the need for babies.
So I guess the surrogacy storyline goes way?
I am getting whiplash and a headache. This is too much to try to keep up with.
My TV Shows are suppose to relax me, even when there is drama. Y&R is starting to infuriate me.
MY news of DANNY BOAZ is not new I see. I have looked ahead to MONAY’S show…turns out CHANCE will not be able to supply his “swimmers” yet…there seems to be something physically wrong,etc.
Wow!!!! I don’t even know what to think. So what happens with Abby!?? Does her husband just disappear on her out of nowhere!? How do you just not have Chance when they are dealing with fertility issues. Even regardless of that, Abby and Chance just got married so is Abby going to be left by her new husband out of the blue!?
So strange! So he’s not going to be replaced or killed off—just gone? Sure. So this is another chapter in the “ABBY CAN NEVER EVER BE HAPPY” story???? Is there a Vegas connection here? He’s been kidnapped? I also read this is another budget cut, just like Theo—and there are more coming. Lola maybe? Who else, hmmmm.
Well, it seems that the budget cuts are being made, due to the constant need to test for Covid.
Apparently 3 or 4 more contract players are being let go, that tested positive for Covid-19.
I know of two others Jordi V.(My Rey) and Greg Rikkart(Kevin). If it is either or both. To me that will be a tremendous lost to the show. I love both those guys and their characters.
Wow! Thanks for the scoop! So a brand new father and a brand new husband? This is all so weird. Would they cut Lola before Rey? Or maybe they are both gone.
Ali—I’m just listening on an iPhone with headphones or a speaker and the sound quality seems quite good. You mentioned wanting to make some changes? I know you have high standards, just letting you know you are already producing good quality sound (to my untrained ear).
I can’t decide if I’m excited to see Theo again or if I’m just going to get MAD all over again that they wrote him out of the show. I don’t know if it’s accurate but I saw that his visit only gets one episode. BOO!
