The official 'Jack Manning' discussion thread [merged]

Blaire's really annoying me right now so I want her to get stuck with Eli and marry him before she learns the truth!

It was funny how Jack walked in and assumed everyone was teary eyed over Blair marrying Eli.

That was cute - lol! Poor kid.

Anybody notice how big Jack is getting? He looks like he's developing a football players frame. He's gonna be huge in a few years.

They showed like four seconds of him in yesterday's preview.

Jack not only grew four inches, but his hair color changed too. I think he's the first dark haired Lord/Manning I can remember seeing.

Yeah - I can't remember the last time we had that voice over, either.

LOL - typical. I just don't know how into his storyline I am. I'm disappointed that Carmen is gone and I really hate Shane, so I just don't have much interest in this storyline at all.

I was shocked by the announcer. I don't remember the last time they did that either. Over the last 10 years or so, on a recasts first day usually what they do is go out of their way to have others say their name to drum it in to viewers that this new actor is now playing the character. LOL@at Jack's hair color. Good point. The Manning's are dirty blonds. Maybe some of Blair's original Japanese roots are recessive in Jack.

Blaire's Japanese? LOL! You coulda fooled me. So let's see - Blaire starts out as mixed and then looses the Japanese side of her - maybe she lost a bit with each guy she slept with, which would explain why there's NO trace of anything Japanese in her anymore, given her number of bed partners. Now we have Jack suddenly going brunette - lol. You gotta wonder what's up with those Cramer genes.

In addition to how Blair used to look like this


The rest of the Cramer's also used to look like this:





Yes indeed, Jack has the gene for dark hair.

You forgot Langston

She's an adopted Cramer!

well - that explains the dark hair - lol! Jack's going back to his Japanese roots - 1/4 Japanese. I've never seen pictures of the original Blaire. What a difference!!!

I'm more upset that they haven't shown Shane. Put this kid on contract and show him more! He's already outperforming most of the cast. (NuJack can stay gone cause I already don't like him.)

I guess they are letting audiences swallow the fact Jack is now a teenager.

^^^^By not showing him and letting us forget?

They just gave us a taste he will be back.

^^^^Obviously, but a taste that brief can almost make people wonder if it was like one of those temp recast flukes.

Hey maybe it is and they will bring the other Jack back!

^^^^Maybe we can have this Jack commit suicide and be revived as CLP with a changed heart who wants to make amends to Shane!

Great idea!!!!! Then Shane, horribly mentally scarred by the whole incident turns into Jack and starts bullying him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
