Wondering about Ben and Xander

[JasonDíSpeech]

They did a good job with the time jump, it shook the show up. For about 6 weeks. Then, like everything, it dra a a a a a agged on for too long.

A waste!

I'm not adverse to Xander hooking up with Gwen. It would be poetic if he used his redemption to redeem someone else. I hope he doesn't backslide, that would be a dreadful pity and Kristen would gain another win something I'm deadset against.

Ben, I'm not sure what I want to be done with him. The direction things are head is so heartbreaking for his character I'm numb.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!

They should have just recast Sarah. They still could if they were smart. But you know.

 

[DrBakerFan]

Amen, Sarah Beth. Linsey Godrey hasn't been in the role of Sarah long enough to say that she is the character. Recasting would keep the entertaining concept of a rough-around-the edges Xander being saved from his worst impulses by his true love. And if the writers need something new for the X-Man to do now that he's gone (at least for now) from Titan, why not make him the chief life guard at Salem Beach? Xander in a bathing suit for the summer would be just what many of the ladies would enjoy.

 

[JasonDíSpeech]

Do we know if they let Linsey Godfrey (Sarah) go or the character of Sarah go? Because my impression was it was the latter but that was not from a direct source.

This was in Soap Opera Digest

"Between her & the producers" could literally mean it was her choice to leave or their choice to write Sarah out for a while. Thanks for the link Kat.

Didn't someone say she left to deal with illness or something to that effect, or was that speculation?

 

[katmouse]

I think that was speculation.

 

[Poirot]

She did mention something in a twitter post about an illness.....

 

[katmouse]

But is that reason she left? I hope she comes back.

Sarah was annoying with her baby talk but I loved how Xander was with her.

 

[SarahBeth]

Soapkitty, a recast could fix that. A new actress not baby talking would be great.
