[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 440839, member: 27"] One of the most dangerous things a soap writer can do is cast two newcomers and immediately put them together in a front-burner romance. It depends on both actors being accepted by the audience and being good enough to carry a strong work load. It can succeed occasionally (see: Emma and Gio) but typically this blows up in the show's face. Though she has ties to the show (and its spinoff, [I]Port Charles[/I]) Serena may as well be a new character. I get the impression that Nathan Dean was hired short term to fill the void left by Steve Burton's absence, that he would probably depart when/if he gets another role someplace since he seems to be in demand. Ryan Paevey has extended his short term contract once already, so if they play it right might just lure him back in a more permanent way. [/QUOTE]
