Loved Tom As joey. He Had Instant Chemistry With Erika Slezak SAs His Mom Viki.

I Loved How They Played On Joey's History With Rex & That joey Is Still Mad At Rex For Sleeping With His Then Wife, Jen Rappaport

I Loved Tom As Joey With Natalie. The Joking About Marriage was spot On

The Scene Where Joey Kissed Aubrey Was Very Convincing

i love him & he & Terri are why i'm checking this show out. i loved him as Adam Munson on ATWT, he was the best one they had cast in the role. i haven't watched this show in YEARS & i don't know all the players anymore, but i can't get past yet Ross Marler as Clint Buchannen, will take some getting use to.

I loved Terri and Tom's debuts today. I think it is wierd that on As The World Turns they played Katie Peretti and Adam Munson and their were aunt and nephew.

I thought he was pretty good. He was good with ES and MA. I also enjoyed Terri more in her scenes than i did Gina Tognoni. After one day, I am already team Aubrey.

I was neither over or underwhelmed by him...I was just whelmed.
I did think he had one too many little awkward moments in his scenes with Viki and Natalie, there wasn't an easy or relaxed charm that one would expect from that type of family reunion but that is not totally unexpected for his first scenes.
And he almost ate TC's face in their kissing scene at the end of the show.

Terri's introduction was interesting, but it did make Kelly seem like an awfully big.....um, AIRHEAD....you know, with her TOTAL WILLINGNESS to tell a PERFECT STRANGER intimate details about her romantic history. Who does that??????!!!!!!! Of course, I guess if people used common sense on soaps, there'd be no stories. I'll shut up and color, I guess. Suspending disbelief as we speak.........

Tom was good, but I miss that cutie pie, Bruce Michael Hall.

Tom was fine as Joey especially since I never saw the show with the other "joeys". But, Terri was outstanding. What an incredible screen presence- really enjoyed her when she was on. what a great addition to the show.

I have tried to get into this show since they axed ATWT, but even with some of my all time favorite soap stars on the show, I just can't stay interested.

So now after B&B I venture out to my craft studio and work on my cards. At least this has given me the time to get all my Christmas cards made a couple of weeks early. Smile

My first impression of Tom Degnan as Joey is quite positive. Like some of the posters before me, I think he had great chemistry with Erika Slezak. And that kiss between him and Terri...WHOA...was on fire!

Since when did it become a bad thing to kiss someone passionately? Now that's seen as "eating someone's face off?" Ha! If that's what it is, then bring on the buffet, 'cuz this boy is hungry!

Can't wait to see more Joey and Aubrey!

I actually think that Terri Conn is a better actor than Tom Deagan. I'm not feeling it.

I have a huge crush on this guy. He is not the best looking guy in the world but there is something about him that is sexy. His smile lights up a room and he looks so sexy just standing there while he was talking to Aubrey after they had sex. I didn't think I was going to like him but after two episodes I love him! I think I want him to get back with Kelly though because I think he has major chemistry with Gina T.

Terri's been acting consistently in major roles for about 15 years, so I'd hope she's a better actor than Degnan, who hasn't been around as long. I just hope she gives better performances than she did in ATWT's last months.

You'r right, it's not fair to compare a fairly new actor with someone who has more experience. I didn't know he hadn't worked that much.
