CASTING NEWS: Thorsten Kaye Says Goodbye, For Good

Well it's the news many AMC fans have been dreading.  SOD is reporting Thorsten Kaye (Zach) is leaving AMC again, with no plans for a return.  While on a trip to help Ryan and Greenlee prove their innocence, Zach's plane crashes and Zach is presumed dead.   You know how these things go in soaps, there is no body found, which leaves the door open for Thorsten to return some day if circumstances change.  But he has made it clear from the very beginning when AMC relocated to LA that he would not be moving there because his family is in NYC.   The eventual plan, after an intense period of mourning, is to move Kendall on with new character, Griffin Castillo, played by Jordi Vilasuso, who joins AMC on November 15.   So... no Adam, no David, no Zach.  Kinda sucks doesn't it?

Kendall and Zach have been so in love and happy since he came back that I've been saying, "Oh, he's going to die." I'll be very sorry to see him go. Zach is one of my absolutely favorite characters.

I can't believe they've got someone else lined up for Kendall already! Although I guess there's no better aphrodisiac for Kendall then someone dying.

And, yet we're stuck with JR and Ryan. It's no surprise but still sad.

And Kendall is saddled with 2 kids and Gabby. Before anybody gets pissed, remember it's TV. Since he's really a goner, I it's too bad Ian and Gabby can't go too. At least Gabrielle's death would end that Pratt-tostrophic blunder of a story and free Bianca from the shackle if one of the biggest blunders in amc history. Bianca borrowing Zach's sperm without consulting Kendall was dumber than death by pancakes, the Satin Slayer and Zarf all together. And instead if leaving it open, why not really bury the guy and give Minshew a chance to make a memorable performance like Erica at Mona's funeral? I'll never forget Wrica sobbing on her coffin while Tom, Mark and others tried to console her. I hate it when they kill vets for sport, but he's not coming back.

Why don't they just kill Marty off on OLTL. She truly is an annoying b--ch who thinks he world owes her something. She wants Natalie to ruin her career to save her pathetic son who is responsible because he chose to believe that nut job Hannah. Which doesn't say much for her as a therapist which make Cole's actions partly her fault.
