I was really impressed that the overwelming majority of GL posters are very positive about Jeff starting on the show...It's nice to see. Lori

It is such a breath of fresh air. Those posters were so welcoming to the AMCers who came into comment on the addition of JB to the cast. And they do seem very excited about him coming on

Excellent point, Amy! Most GL fans probably don't even know (or care ) who Zendall is...And that's not a bad thing. Sometimes, being a Lavery fan is like swiming uphill, when dealing with some posters. This may be a silly notion, and I'm not even sure if it makes complete sense. But, if McTavish had invented "Zach" first, would "Ryan" and "Jon" had such a backlash???--Or, more humorously put, would Zach have been first in line for alll of the crappy storyline ideas?--- Afterall, we are talking McTavish! ;D ;D ;D "Toad-free zone!" I like that, Liz! Lori

Well, we know they should be excited, but there are quite a number of them who have never seen him as 'Jonathan'. That's where we come in. Let the JB pep rally begin ;D On a side note, I guess the GL luncheon is this weekend. It's good for those (GL) fans that'll get to see what an awesome guy Jeff really is

I'm curious as to what everyone's plans are for watching GL? I was thinking about tuning in a few weeks before Jeff's first airdate so I won't be quite so lost. Anyone else planning on watching before Jeff begins? Or maybe Brandon and Stampurr can let us know when they show begins the big build up to Shayne's return.

What a relief that will be. Zach is absolutely HORRIBLE from the few minutes I've seen of him recently.

I was thinking of tuning in the week before, Amy. But if the s/l's going to start earlier, then I will, too. I'm so excited for Jeff

It's going to be great! And I have high hopes that they will give him lots of screen time and a good storyline. Yay, Jeff!!!

It sounds promising. He's playing the son of two of the most established characters. I equate Reva to Erica on AMC. And it sounds from the bio I've read, Shayne's a fairly blank slate to write for. I'm cautiously optimistic.

A lot of GL fans have been clamoring for Shayne to return for a long time so it is very thrilling not only that he is coming back but that he's being played by such a great actor! You might see rumors about Shayne coming back and possibly being gay but I don't put much stock in them. The last guy to play Shayne kind of had that vibe about him so I think some folks still think of him when they talk about these "rumors". Also the last guy to play Shayne was a model and let's just say that his acting skills ............ uh ............. well.................. weren't his strong suit. I definitely think that long time GL fans will be happy with Jeff! Here are some links to some other GL boards if you guys want to check them out: www.glbuzz.com/board/upload//www.telenextmedia.com:3864/index.php

Thanks for the links, stampurr! I'll definitely check them out. I was kind of wondering where everyone was getting the gay rumors. Now that you explain it, it makes sense. Either way, I just hope the GL writers actually write for him. We know Jeff can deliver
