See that suggestion sort of bugs me. It's one thing if Brett wanted to leave if Scott left but it seems a bit unfair to throw Brett out of work if he still wanted to keep playing Kyle . . . Edited by luke75b, Mar 7 2010, 08:18 PM.

I would think the show might lose some die-hard Scott or Brett fans due to re-casts, but in the end, if they were managed to find competent actors to fill the roles and with good writing, they will be able to attract new set of followers. Hell, it's not OLTL related, but Van Hansis is a recast of the role of Luke Synder and he has made the role his own. |

Yup. If General Hospital can successfully pair Luke with Tracy, even though Luke and Laura are THE SUPERCOUPLE of daytime, then Kyle or Oliver, should be able to be paired with another guy successfully, should the need arise. If Kish wasn't the only gay couple on daytime, wouldn't bother me to write them out, but since they are, I think the show should recast or bring on a new guy should Scott or Brett ever leave. |

Obviously if Brett wanted to carry on playing Kyle without Scott, then i say kill off Oliver, kill off Kish, and start afresh. Sometime down the line Kyle can meet a new guy who would help him get over losing Oliver, and a new relationship can begin. Either that or have Kyle revisit his shaddier/darker side once again. I just don't want a re-cast of Oliver, (or Kyle for that matter) thats all!! Edited by KIsh4ever, Mar 7 2010, 08:27 PM.

While my choice is to kill Oliver off, if he's going to live I'm okay with recasting because I believe nearly any role can be recast, especially since Scott and Brett are new to the show and haven't been around that long. Cris, Jess, Blair, Todd are all very successful recasts. There are tons of very talented young men who could play this role and work well with Brett. I just don't believe there's only one actor who could fill the part and make the romance work. I've watched soaps too long and seen too many vital roles recast to believe otherwise. |

That Is True But It Would Be Difficult |

Yeah i've always got the impresion that RC/BF are more invested in Oliver/Kish than Kyle, but that could be me just reading too much into things - which hapens quite often :LMAO: But i think if Brett stayed and SE left, and Kyle ended up just being a supporting character in the background, only there to prop up others, ie Sky, Gigi, Rex, Todd etc, then i think that would be even more unfair on Brett, than releasing him of his contract. At least if they let Brett go, he could audition/screeen test for a far greater number of roles, which he would be limited if he was still on contract to OLTL, and his talent being wasted! |

Personally I wouldn't recast right away. I'd do the cliche, put Oliver in a coma or maybe since he's a cop, have him "snap" and need to be put in a mental hospital for recovery. Then I'd pair Kyle with someone else first. Then, when the time felt right to "reunite" Kyle and Oliver, if Scott couldn't/wouldn't come back, then I'd recast. |
