There is a GOD. My PRAYERS have been answered in regards to this awful portrayer of MAC on Young and Restless. It is just so sad that it took the PTB at Y & R so long to get rid of this talentless HACK of a MAC. JT is okay and he will be missed, although his best story line was with the original Coleen Carlton. Just sorry I have to wait until November 5 for this mess to be over.

Thad looks BAKED within an inch of his life in this photo: ARRRRGGGHHHH!! See, kids....this is why we stay out of the sun!!! LOL!!!

But honestly, this warrants a great big ol': WHAT TOOK YOU SO FREAKING LONG????????????????????????????????!!!

Both characters are no longer worth the time it takes to print out their scripts......not to mention the paper!! Gotta save those trees!!!

Next stop???? Get rid of Cane and Lily!!!!

Does this mean that Mel will remove her check box for Clem on the performer of the week?

I vote that Mel still leaves the check box filled, I mean if the rule is that we give new actors a month, can't we still have a gripe with older actors after they leave for a month?

Not a fan of either of these two, but I think Clementine had a much better chemistry with Thad. She and Billy Miller were total duds. With Thad, she actually shows some emotion.

I can't say I am sorry. JT had turned into a judgmental ass given his bad boy past, and Clem never clicked with anyone IMO as Mac. JT could have been salvaged, but I can see why Thad would choose to branch out into prime time rather than go in with his storyline as it is. Without him, there's no real reason to keep Clem around, so Mac can go off to Darfour or something and come back down the road as a better actress.

I never liked Cybill Shepherds daughter as Mac, she just never fit the part. I love Thad and I know he will do well on another show. I think he should play Eric Brady on Days of Our Lives. He looks a lot like Allison Sweeney who plays Sami Brady.

While J.T. has turned into a holier-than-thou ass, I'm sad to see Thad Luckinbill go; gorgeous and talented to boot. I'm neither here nor there on Clementine Ford; she seemed to be doing better work when paired with Luckinbill, but then I never thought she was the stain on daytime that everyone else seemed to think--I can name numerous "actors" on this and other shows who are far more cringe-worthy.

That boy is so pretty! I really never minded when his character became a bit of a bore. Miss Ford, on the other hand......We know she can act. So what happened? I think Jamey said it recently, "Daytime is not for everyone."

JT and Mac will be killed by the tornado.

Some of you people are whacked. "Judgmental" JT? He's the only one who cares enough about Reed to keep him away from Victoria and her vile family.

Woot! Thank you! Clementine Ford sucked. She was probably the worst actress on the show. I wish they would just kill the character off because every version of Mac gets even more cringe worthy. Personally, I didn't think AB's Mac was that hot either.

I think TL is a good actor. He was given such bad material. He was given two duds in a row with regards to the romantic department and that is hard to come back from. I could see him as Sammie's brother on DOOL.

I'm so happy I won't have to watch JT the judgmental boring hypocrite on my screen anymore. I was actually warming up to Mac recently but the character is a huge bore and there's enough of those on the show right now. I just wish they were taking the other big bores Cane and Lily with them when they go.

Now I wish they would leave the character of Mac off the screen until they can get an actress who is capable of handling it.

I hope this means Victoria is gonna get custody of Reed back.

Wish Thad all the luck! I can't watch him without thinking about his gay/nude scene in Nip Tuck. He has the prettiest backside I have ever seen. Anyway he seems like a really nice guy and a pleasant actor not great but not bad either. He just needed better material and costars than he got on Y&R lately. I liked his stuff from years ago when he was a bit of a bad boy.
Anyway I still think he could play the grown up version of the cartoon Jonny Test on the big screen. I think it could be his break out role.

"I hope this means Victoria is gonna get custody of Reed back."

WHY would you hope that??? You must hate the kid! Poor Reed! Victoria has proven she's an awful mother. Just look at the evidence---she couldn't even keep her most recent child alive. Reed is going to grow up to be one f-ed up kid with Victoria, Billy, and the Newmans' influences.

In my opinion, the saddest part of the whole saga is how two really GOOD characters with so much potential were ruined.

I hope that somewhere down the road one or both of the characters re-appears.

JT/Thad has been a pretty important part of the show for a while and still could be really potent if well-written.

Mac could be a TERRIFIC character if well-written and played by a more capable actor.

Again, those are just my opinions.

JT I have always liked and I liked the character MAC, but detest this HACK that is like a fence post trying to play her and she is just really really bad.

I'm sad to see Thad go - he's been great over the years.
