I just saw it on Sony that Sharon Case confirms he is going to die a heroic death, apparently she was at a Giant Tiger and she confirms he won't be coming back, I was surprised but it must be in the can, she also spilled that she and Jack get divorce.

Hey thanks for the input, apprecite it. I was gonna try to save him if it were possible, but they film the soaps so far in advance, you never know. Thanks agian. I heard this was due to budget cuts, and it was betwwen him and another actor.....Oh we KNOW this marriage was cooming to a divorce on way or the other, even with Phyliss doing nothing......

I really don't want to see Brad go either his a pivitol character, however this just might make room for some new blood to go after Sharon and just maybe she will leave Nick alone. Also we know Brad has a mother but do we really know if any other family member survived the blood bath or if there are any other family member out there we do not know about. I mean look and Jeffery he was a twin brother of the DA, who knew.

Sometimes it seems they make it all up as they go along, forgetting plot points and such. That's why we're her LOL. But Brad NEEDS to be around, if for no other reason than to give Jack grief. This is a major lose to the show...I hope TPTB get it/that

I couldn't agree more he is definately an asset and will be sorely missed. I hope TPTB catch a glimpse of this and start a mad dashing rewrite soon. Hey maybe we should start a petition, it has worked before maybe it will work again.

Oh you know that they moniter us very closely whter or not they say it. It's reflecting in both the show and the magazine

I feel like they really have written the character into a corner though. Same with Colleen. They may as well get rid of him if he is not doing anything productive. He is not liked at Newman or Jabot, so he is not working. For him to have a love interest, it would have to be a new character because no one on the show likes him (except Sharon, and I am one of the fans that wants Nicholas and Sharon back together). It makes sense that he goes out now.Colleen should follow. There is no storyline for her.

I don't agree with you on this one, his character hasn't been cornered yet, don't forget he had a major story line with the reliquaries and that could come back cause it really didn't get concluded appropriately. As for Nick and Sharon we have discussed this to the point of nauseium and I don't want to see another Victor and Nikki situation develop with Nick and Sharon. She needs to be on her own to learn to live her own life and deal with her issues with out depending on Nick to bail her out all the time. That ship has sailed and sank so let's just agree to disagree on the Nick and Sharon front ok.

I hated that storyline about his past. It was terribly boring, in my opinion.As for Nick & Sharon, it's a very trick situation because both couples have very strong fan bases (Nick/Sharon and Nick/Phyllis) ... I just feel like Phyllis has become so boring and one-note since she married Nick. I like the fact that now she is back to her scheming ways. Nick and Phyllis = Phyllis is boring.

Well I respect your opinion I still say lets agree to disagree cause I find Sharon and Nick probably as boring as you find Phylis and Nick. And you are right Nick and Sharon do have a strong fan base, but ya know so does Phylis, a lot of people were glad when she (the original Phylis) returned cause you got to know she will add some quirk to any story line.So let us leave it at that okay.

Well said. Strong opinions, good for you it's not always welcome but I like it. I am not sure who I am rooting for because neither are deserving at this point. I really like to see everyone not always in agreement there alot of that going on. It will be fun to see no matter how is turns out. I also think you could be right. Everything you read in the magazine I think the fan base is almost half an half, so you never know what will happen You might get your wish you never know.

I agree that story line was somewhat boring however they never really concluded it properly so I feel if they were to expand on it some more it might get interesting.

Hey soapqueen I am new here and have gone back and read the forums and I think and going to like you. I had noticed most people figure if their like Phyliss they could bash Sharon and if some of Sharon fun are not happy they are taking to much or I guess their oppinions doesn't seem to matter much. Well it does I am a Sharon fan, she may not have been acting alot like herself lately. I guess losing a child and a husband will do that to you. I never thought that Brad was good for Sharon anyway. Sharon may be a lot of things but she is not as shifty or and out right liar like Brad Jack or Phyliss. Those three went to the same learning school.

You know if you really read the forums you will notice that there has been equal bashing of Sharon and Phylis and you are right Sharon has not been acting like her old self. As for her losing a child yes that can have a bearing on some of her actions, but both Nick and Sharon are at fault for the marriage break up. Neither one of them handled the death of Cassie well and both made their share of mistakes.I really don't think people are necessarily bashing Sharon, just some what disappointed in her actions of late. She has become some what self righteous and condenming people for some of their actions but not stopping to take a long hard look at herself. Don't get me wrong I have always liked Sharon just not right now because of the way she, I think she needs to be without a man and learn to deal with things on her own. She use to be a strong person and able to do just that, but lately she has become so needy that it is almost sickening. Her mom needs to reappear and give her a good swift kick in the butt to smarten her up.I think if her and Nick were to get back together it needs to be on a more equal footing, not just because she needs to be with him or any other man.

The death of Cassie was hard on them both since cassie was grounded and Nick gave her permition to go out anyway. I think at first that was what made Sharon mad at Nick the most and you would understand that if you lost a child. The blame game, because no one wants to except the fact that their child is gone. They were working through it because as much as Sharon was mad she knew is wasn't Nick's fault. I would say if we go back to that time Nick was the one that really was having the worst time, he turned away from his wife and found comfort in another woman. I think the issue is that Nick did not fall out of love with Sharon , he felt in love with Phyliss that is why he is so divide. The pull is still there that 'swhy he is always in her life Noah or her marriage he is in. I think that is why Sharon can't really move on. I don't think her mother would totally discourage her since she alway like Nick. I think she would be the first one to tell her daughter to fight for her life and be strong. That 's is what Doris was like. She was happy when her daughter wasn't taking scrape from Nicky, Matt or anyone else and that is what she would tell Sharon

. Welcome Welcome, I don't think Brad is good for Sharon either. I use to like the old Brad the garderner days. He was not perfect but he has turn into a snake so he is not the same. I am sorry to see him go they should just write him out for a while to see if things get better for the soaps. I hate to say this but I don't like when they kill people that have been around so long. the newbie don't always cut in the long run

Whether or not he is good for her isn't the real point now...it;smore like this character DESPERATELY needs a change and to grow up. This whole situation is getting old, and very tiresome

Here here.

I think I have just seen where Labner have her issues you shouldn't alway be so quick to jump on people. I for one use to like Brad not so much but I will be sorry to see him go. It could just be they have written him in a corner with all his shenanigans and needs to do something with he character. Let everyone have their say please. We need respect and class for whatever small everyone brings to the forums. Please don't act like your views are better because you have been there longer. We don't want to act petty. I am really seeing that.

I am going to be sad to see him go as well, but I don't think they wrote him into a corner so much as he is not fitting into the story lines they are developing so in a situation like that someone has to go and he is elected I guess.

You may be right there. I think Victoria's baby should have turn out to be Brad because it would have been fun watching them all trying to get along and share the baby. That would gave JT something to play since I am so tired of him being lead by the nose. That never use to be JT, remember how he use to be, to boring now. There would be more story for Brad and Victor since he is not a fan of Brads. That is just my opinions by the way.

And if Brad had been the father that would have been a factor I'm sure, that would have helped in their decision to keep him on the show, and let a newbie with minimal storyline possibilities go instead.

I agree, J. T. is getting kinda boring these days. And to watch Brad fight for the baby would have been interesting considering what he did to Ashley with Abbey and that was Victor's baby not his.

Now the ? is how are they gonna write him off? I hope we don't have to deal more of this reliquery mess, a word that I would've never learned how to spell if it weren't for Y&R Gee thanks writers. I bet he'll be saving Sharon tho.....Ands that the Nazi's will be coming for him

I kinda wonder if everything Jack as done it won't fall back and pull Sharon into a dangerous situation and Brad will have to save her and get killed. What do you think. I mean there mob may still be involved somehow.

The mob is always a reliable stand by maybe it'll be a Nazi mobster LOL. I wonder tho if Bradski's mom will be involved as well. Haven't seen or heard from her in awhile

That's true we haven't either way from what I hear Bradski may be killed off. How remains to be seen.

And I wonder who the actor was that they kept instead of him. HMMMMMM

My thought would be possibly Adam cause that story line still has a long way to go maybe. But who knows, hey maybe the guy Kay is shacked up with, maybe they will get married.

He seems to really like her, but has to know it isn't Marge on some level. Hope that they don't drag that story out

I for one wouldn't mind seeing them together that is for sure. He kinda reminds me of Rex in attitude and demeanour.

There is so many newbie and I don't see what they really bring to the canvas. Where they could go with Brad could be better than having Adam, Heateher, Eden, River and the poeple in the coffee shop where Kay is at the moment. I for one would not mess those newbies. That's to bad about Brad anyways.

I agree Brad has been a staple to the show for a long time, but I guess TPTB have decided it is time to get rid of his character like they did John and make room for the newbies.

I am still hoping he isn't killed off.

Well rumble is, is that is exactly what they are going to do. But for what it is worth I with you on this I hope they don't kill him off I would like to see him come back. Hey wouldn't it be fun to have him come back as the reverse of Jeffery and William. Instead of an evil twin, he can come back as a goody two shoes. That would be a hoot.

Hey it's a soap even if they do kill him off, I am sure they will bring him back. What a shame they are doing that. He seems like such a nice guy and a company player.

It is sad to see Don Diamont go because he is a very charasmatic actor. The character of Brad was painted into a corner when Jill didn't appoint him CEO of Jabot. That was the nail in the coffin for the character. He is backdrop now. He isn't connected to anyone romantically, and he doesn't have any air time with his daughter. I was glad that he got airtime with Traci. She pointed out what was missing in his life. He and Sharon don't have that spark like she has with Nick and Jack. I am guesing he will fake his own death and go under ground to do that whole relaquiry business.

I am glad I am not the only one who thinks the relaquiry business was not completed to a final end result. And as I said before we do not know all about Brads family and wouldn't be a hoot to find out he has a two just like William.

It's nice to see that most of us are not happy to see Brad just thrown away. I hope they know that they are losing a good actor, also the decision to kill him off is the wrong one

Hey let's make him a twin like Jeffery was to William.

I hope they see how much Brad will be missed and maybe bring him back at a later date.

They better not kill brad. I don't want ghost brad or twin brad i want the real thing!! Brad is the bomb! He's a major hunk!! Serious eye candy!! Ok so he vacay's for a while or pulls an ashly and works in europe or hong kong whatever but don't kill him!!

Or just maybe the brother that everyone THINKS is dead. That'd be a hoot to avenge his brothers murder. LOL
