Chad (Read 872 times)

Kudos to the show's creators for giving us time to warm up to Chad, not thrusting him into the limelight like they have with Dimbulb and Taylor. I really liked Chad on Friday, both in his scenes with Stefano and with Abby.

He "gets" it. He acknowledges that Stefano could be manipulating him, but he also recognizes that his own ego needs stroking. He told Abby that he was always the screw-up son in D.A. Woods' estimation, but Stefano is the opposite. Stefano seeks out interaction with Chad, asks his opinion, and tries to motivate Chad by sharing books that they can later discuss.

The show never gave us even that much insight into EJ. Chad is turning into a 3 dimensional character and it's really refreshing.

I like it that many of Chad's scenes are with show vets. He doesn't seem to care about the money but is happy to finally have a Dad who actually cares about him. I am interested in seeing what happens when he finds out some of the things Stefano and EJ are involved in.

I was thrilled when they took Chad out of the kiddie s/l and gave him an adult role interacting with adults (well, except for Abby, who is just a silly little twit that should be in the kids s/l). The actor plays the role spot on......looking forward to watching it all unfold......

Plus he went from being kind of dorkish to rather charming! I love Chad scenes!

When Chad was first introduced as the baby daddy with Mia, he appeared he was going to be just this mean, angry bully type. (Hmmm...kinda sounds like his half brother) We are getting to know the real Chad. I agree, not forced on us like Tiller and Dumbo. I mean Taylor and Dario.

I like Chad a lot. Didn't like him when he was first introduced, but they way that they have fine-tuned his character, I really enjoy him now.

I wonder if he was originally planned to be Stefano's son or just part of Will and Mia's story. I am enjoying the character.

I didn't like him at first but have certainly warmed up to him. I think the actor does a good job too, Glad MIA is M.I.A!

I hated Chad more then I hate Abe when he first appeared in Salem. Now I have to say, he is slowly turning into....I hesitate to say a favorite of mine, so I guess I will say he is slowly becoming someone I want to see on the show daily. I like everything about his scenes with Stefano. Plus, is it just me or is he getting better looking by the day? LOL

I don't think he's actually getting better looking. I think it's because you/we like him better now. It's like when EJ first came to Salem. I thought he was really handsome. But his personality has made him ugly, in my opinion. The reverse is true too. When we like someone, they seem like they are better looking.

^^^ I just don't remember that twinkle in his eyes in the beginning!

I think Casey is getting more confident on set and he's standing a bit taller. Then again, when he started he was just some lame girl's baby daddy. Now he's the son of Stefano Dimera. That would make me carry myself a little differently.

He also has a little better wardrobe. He isn't dressing like a 13 year old boy anymore. I think he is adorable!

[Pallison]

I think he looks better.....as DancingDays said, the actor has gotten more confident in his role, and the role has become meatier and they are letting him play his own age and not a high school student. Different hair, different clothes etc. I think all of those things has let Casey's looks shine......

Those pics he and Molly (Melanie) tweeted a while back were HAWT!!!! After I saw those I started to look at him in a new light.
