What is your reaction to Winsor Harmon being taken off contract at B&B?
» The story: 13-year vet Winsor Harmon dropped to recurring

I'm mad! I'm a huge fan of Thorne and want to see more of him, not less!
I like Winsor, but it doesn't surprise me since he's rarely used in story.
I've never cared for Winsor's Thorne, so this doesn't upset me too much.
Thorne has had little purpose, so I'm ready to see some different faces.
I'd really like to see Winsor take on a role on another soap.
I have no opinion about Harmon's contract status on B&B.
