Eight is Enough 09

I'm obsessed with watching Eight is Enough on MeTooTV.

I decided to recast for 2009 because I'm that much of a mental patient.
Actors today are so gorgeous, I'm not entirely happy with my choices, but casting for little quirks isn't as easy as it used to be.

*I did find a crazy amount of new girlfriends who would have at least gotten a private audition and a call back. I may write about them later.

Penelope's Cast:


Tom Bradford AKA Daddy




Michael Aday or Dave Thomas. My first choice is probably Meatloaf.

Abby Bradford



Toni Collette was actually my inspiration for the recasting. She's very Abby-ish. To me.

David Bradford



Kyle Schmid. Why not?

Mary Bradford



Spencer Grammer. Kelsey's kid.

Joanie Bradford



Amber Marshall. She's a little more Susan than Joanie, but she's old enough, she's my girlfriend, and she played Elizabeth Smart!

Nancy Bradford



Ashley Benson. She has all Nancy's assets.

Elizabeth Bradford



Sarah Ramos. C'mon! She's perfect.

Susan Bradford



Bonnie Wright. I don't know nuthin bout the Harry Potter movies, but she'll do.

Tommy Bradford



Graham Phillips is not terribly Willie Ames-ish, but he did sing on Bat Out of Hell 3.

Nicolas Bradford



His name is Slade Pearce, which is awesome. Kind of a mid-range Nicolas, but I like it.
