Subject: Bring back Kale Browne!!!!

It's a shame for OLTL to lose such a wonderful and talented actor like Kale Browne. What a STUPID move on Gary Tomlin's part to get rid of one of OLTL's Best actors.

These past few weeks we have seen some great scenes with Sam and Nora, the kiss between the two of them, and some great scenes with Sam and Todd. Kale Browne and Roger Howarth really make a great team together, I enjoy watching Todd and his "coach".

Kale Browne puts so much emotion into every scene that he is in, he brings out the best in the other actors that he works with. Gary Tomlin is losing alot of great talent on OLTL, Timothy Gibbs is gone, and now Kelly and Sophia are leaving too?!?! But the worst mistake he has made is getting rid of Kale Browne, he is one of the Best.

BRING BACK KALE BROWNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You think Kale Browne's leaving is bad. Now David Fumero is going too! I don't care about Sophia, Kelly or Kevin at all. But how could they let Cristian go. He is the hottest guy in Llanview. I wish they'd get rid of Jessicow instead.

JJohn, I Totally Agree With you about Kale. He is the best. I bet that such a talented actor gets another job really soon!

I sure miss watching Sam,and daught.Jenn. I also miss him working with everyone on the set. What a shame! I always thought he,and,Blair would make a perfect couple. Please bring him back where he belongs. He's such a talented actor.He can make you cry right along with him.

I loved "Sam". His scenes were believable and sweet with Nora. I wish he'd stay and help Todd!

I didn't like him at first, but he grew on me and now it will be very hard to get used to a new Sam. Especially if he looks younger.

Laurence Lau is a really good actor. Let's just give him a chance. I have to admit, as much as I liked Kale Browne, he was very BORING --

I missed the show yesterday and saw it today and saw the new Sam. He may be a good actor, but he looks too young to have grown children. He doesn't look that much older than Will. He would be better playing Kevin.

[> [> [> Re: Bring back Kale Browne!!!! -- Diane7, 12:44:28 05/11/01 Fri

Well, he's the same age as Kim Delaney from NYPD Blue, who played Jenny Gardner to his Greg on AMC. Probably late 30s...early 40s???

Laurence Lau was born in 1955, so even though he looks young, he's about 46 years old. Old enough to have grown up children. He was actually much older than the characters he was playing on AMC and Another World.

The new Sam. well, let's see here what can I say? Having never watched AMC I was not familar with Laurence Lau. However, I was quite surpised when he got the role of sam Rappaport. Laurence is a really good actor and A very handsome man. I just wish he was playing SOMEBODY ELSE! The man looks too FREAKING YOUNG TO BE SAM!!!! not that my sweet Kale Browne looked too old or anything, but I think Sam would proably be in his late 40's at least. Jen is 18 and Will is proably around 20 or so. Sam had to go to law school too. Laurence may be in his 40's but He can easily pass for 30! The man has certainly aged well I'll say that! I keep trying to fix him up with different woman in llanview then I remember that he's Sam!! It has going to really hard to give Laurence a chance but I will try because I promised someone special that I would. I've been done this recast road before, but I still don't like it. I might be Laurence's fan someday, but I don't think I will ever accept him as Sam. They could make him look a little older.

I loved this actor when he was Greg on AMC...but he is laughable as Sam...first of all, he's way too young to have been married to Lindsey...they are going to look creepy together...like she robbed the cradle big time! Secondly, Roger Howarth will eat him up, chew him up and spit him out as 'coach'...sorry OLTL...great actor, very, very bad casting in this role.

I, too, am looking forward to seeing the new Sam with Lindsay since I, too, remember Laurence Lau from the Greg and Jenny days on OLTL. But let's play a round of "Six Degrees of Kevin-Bacon-Buchanan" here: Laurence Lau (as Greg) married Kim Delaney (as Jenny) who was Tad's sister. And Tad (played by Michael E. Knight) is married in real-life to Catherine (who plays LINDSAY!).
It's all good...

Laurence would go well with Nora,I think. They have chemistry together. Lindsay needs someone of her own devious deeds.How about her and RJ Gannon? I think these two would be great together.

I agree,Laurence Lau is WAY TOO YOUNG TO BE PLAYING SAM!! He could pass for Will and Jen's older brother-certainly not their father! And how old must he have been when he was married to Lindsay? I am too young to have known him on AMC, and while I'm sure he must have been wonderful there, the recast is not working. I hope OLTL will reconsider and bring back Kale Browne. He is greatly missed, and he was one of the best actors on the show. Sam calling Todd "Boomer"? Well, for one thing, the "old Sam" wouldn't have done that, which makes it laughable. Bad, bad choice for a recast....

Laurence Lau is perfect in the role as Sam. And he isn't too young to be Lindsay's husband. He is 45 years old. She looks older than him actually.

NO!!! DON'T!!!! I hated the old Sam. Was never happier to see him gone and don't ever want to see him return. I have no clue why everyone thought he was such a good actor. I thought he was a horrible actor. The only one I dislike as much as Sam would be Will whos acting also sucks.
