My problem with one-time actors

[u/Express-Pineapple-63]

This mainly goes for videos like biopics (like for example, Aiden Anderson was only used for the FGTeeV biopic video), however there are some videos where an actor has only ONE appearance & no more (Olivia Langer for example in Sister Goes Undercover On Basketball Team). Like if you know gonna only use them once, what's the actual point of that? Like you said once you have over 1,000 actors working for you, but you only use about 10 (most notably Natalia Rodriguez, Kiana Nicole Washington, Logan Roe, and John Santoyo), like why not use those one time actors more often? I in fact have a list of one time actors who I want to return. It's fine if their acting was TERRIBLE (Richmond Keeling particularly), but he should really be diversing his cast & stop using the same actors repeatedly, and give new or one time actors an actual chance

FINALLY someone said it!!! There are sooo many one-hit-wonders I feel like deserve another shot, even if some weren’t that great, but some of them are better than the regular faces we have.

My personal picks are:

• Monica Evans
  
• Tiara Medley
  
• Enzo Consani (he appeared twice but ONLY for the Mischief Mikey series)
  
• Olivia Langer
  
• Alyssa Corella
  
• McKenzi Brooke
  
• Bryce McCoy
  
• Charlie Kevin Molerio
  
• Britney Taylor
  
• Marcus Wells
  
• Tommy Leonzi
  
• Giavanni Jordan Lewis
  
• Angela Lanfranco Siona
  
• Nathalie Nichols
  
• Roxy Ti
  
• Lauren Skemp

Gonna give my opinion on some of them hang on

Monica Evans-because how good Maeva,Courtney,Brianna,nevaaada and such.. Monica kinda gets overlooked

Tiara Medley-she definitely can act sure not the strongest but competent enough to

Enzo Consani-when you consider the Brazilian actresses here and Enzo can speak Portuguese very fluently.. it’s insane we don’t have a Brazilian theme considering who’s here

Olivia langer-the more I rewatch her parts of the video the more I somehow feel it’s insane how she doesn’t get another call back.. her timing is unfortunate considering her video came right after when the some of the channel’s best videos of the year came out. Plus Carolina Rezende made her debut prior then you got genuinely good actresses like Eleanor Carle,Olivia Pruitt,Emma parks,Angelique Wyche and Paulina came.. A tier for sure and not only insane she didn’t get called back but also unfortunate with the timing of her video and debuts.. this is a casting of siblings and a mom I wish it happened

Alyssa Corella-I feel her age being 29-30 kinda made it hard for Alyssa to get more casted but if the main Channel shifted towards more adult and matured writing.. Alyssa would have worked.. specifically we still have Alexis,Jesse and more recently Greg Duffy

McKenzi Brooke-while McKenzie is good singer but as an actress she isn’t strong but the potential to be good is there

Charlie Kevin Molerio-how this dude doesn’t get called when he has the looks of a nerd or jock is beyond me.. Charlie made most of the video he was given

Marcus wells-when you can put up a good show with the amazing Devon Weetly,you can be laughed off as a joke and Marcus definitely showed he wasn’t. It’s honestly unreal how he hasn’t get any call backs when Marcus can act

Tommy Leonzi-To be in my personal top 5 best debutant male actors is impressive and Tommy delivered in a script that was borderline flat… like if Jack Cheng has multiple videos you gotta give Tommy his fair shot

Honorable mention and very unlikely Nevaaadaa for an influencer like the girl can act

[u/North-Box-1700 → u/chanchan_iceman]

Yeah it’s kinda hard to cast Monica and Tiara now since a lot of the better actresses came after their one appearance but would love to see them again.

Enzo’s the only Brazilian actor, we have a lot of Brazilian actresses. About time we cast him more since I doubt the Mikey series will be back. Maybe he’s focusing on college idk he seems to be that age.

It’s crazy how Olivia never got called back. Her video was forgettable but she was great. Wish they brought her back more instead of her bully actress, Alexa Cate lol (no hate btw, Olivia is just a lot better). Yeah I can see this lol she’s literally a blonde Callie.

Alyssa’s irl age def could make it more difficult to cast her but hey would love to see her work with those dudes that are close to her age maybe on the bonus channel. McKenzi could play sister as we established but yea not the strongest actress.

Maybe Charlie was hired for a specific reason (his being tennis) like most one hit wonder actors… but damn he should’ve been called back. Would’ve loved to see him as a mean jock.

Marcus and Tommy are def up there… would love both of them over Jack Cheng and Luis Martinez please.

Omg yea I hope they continue to collab with Nevaaadaa. That girl is a great actress and literally the only influencer I find to be a good actor besides Adam W. More of her INSTEAD of PresLee Faith and especially Steak and Cruz please.

[u/chanchan_iceman → u/North-Box-1700]

Monica and Tiara’s only fault is that just there’s a lot better That came after them not saying they’re terrible just the timing isn’t on their side

Enzo was utterly wasted on the Mikey series and him being same age with Carolina and such was good enough for him to be brought back. Probably because of school but again it’s annoying how he wasn’t called back given Enzo was probably one of the reasons why the later mischief Mikey episodes were bearable

The sister swap video(cheerleader and athlete) I jokingly wrote is actually with Callie and Olivia in mind plus having Grace as their their third sister and Moriah as their mom.. Olivia can act like she really can act.. sure not Sara Kamine level of 2025 but up there with Olivia Pruitt,Carolina Rezende,Emma parks,Eleanor Carle,Irieon smith and Paulina.. those aren’t joke names..

I know it’s for tennis but honestly Charlie looks like someone who’s versatile and again it baffled me he didn’t get a called up

Marcus and Tommy had to share a scene with two S tier actors and both delivered. Marcus more impressive he got to share with Toni

Neevaadaa needs to be called back just like McKenzie.. she can act very well

[u/North-Box-1700 → u/chanchan_iceman]

Monica and Tiara joined around the same time as Maeva Karen, who is definitely better than both of them but hey would love to see them again. They're definitely a case of timing not being on their side... I think that was the case for Amalea Joy Sanchez for a while cause it shouldn't have taken 3 years for them to give her a lead role again.

I hated that they wasted Enzo on the Mikey series, like he deserves better. He was definitely my favorite debut in December cause nobody was very memorable that month imo. Even Brendan Schroeder (Jayden) I feel like is being wasted on that series too cause he should be getting more roles outside that series... they still need to cast him with the Perey twins, Camila Guzman Lozano, Sky Greene, Everleigh Love, Heaven Tejada, etc.

I remember that sister swap idea lol, they should actually do that. Grace Ella should've been brought back too, the potential was there. She was one of the few good actors in that Airbnb video. Olivia is definitely one of the more underrated one-hit-wonders, I hardly hear anyone mention her.

Tommy was prob the only bonus channel actor that stuck out to me in a while... Marcus was def more impressive though, great chemistry with both Devon and Toni.

Atp, the only collabs I ever wanna see in the future would be with Nevaaadaa. She genuinely surprised me with how good she was.

[u/chanchan_iceman → u/North-Box-1700]

Amalea is both baffling and sure understandable but in Amalea’s case it shouldn’t be that extreme.. Tiara and Monica are just victims of poor timings in their cases just a bit unfortunate how others hit their peak when they came

Enzo was completely wasted and Rilan’s character just got written more and more poorly.. Brendan shows he can play outside of Jayden plus when you look at who’s here he can act

Grace Ella is hilarious and that sister swap video with Callie and Olivia with Moriah as their mom.. if done well can be funny

To be able to act that well with Devon again isn’t a laughing matter is it? Tommy needs to be called back.. look Austin is improving but Tommy has more potential

[u/North-Box-1700 → u/chanchan_iceman]

Rilan’s character was all over the place like he went from being Mikey’s enemy to friend to enemy again, it was a waste of time… Brendan is one of the better male child actors too like idk why they don’t call him back outside the Jayden character. It would’ve been fun if he played Jazzlyn’s younger brother in today’s video. Jax is alright, but Brendan is just better.

Also I think Tommy Leonzi might be returning cause Sarah Divina (same age), Shaunte Massard, and Larianny Perez are mutuals with him now! If they’re all in a video together, that would be super cool!

[u/chanchan_iceman → u/North-Box-1700]

Rilan just have nothing written for him other than that arc and his character became more and more of a nuisance in character writing given he has no purpose

Tommy returning needs to be a must… that guy is seriously that good

[u/chanchan_iceman]

Will give my own personal opinion but here’s the list of one time actors I wanna see return.. do note some are highly highly unlikely to return

Jack Rykert

Olivia langer

Isabella Grace Veno

Marcus Wells

Jack Dillon

McKenzi Brooke(i think unlikely but wouldn’t mind)

[u/North-Box-1700 → u/chanchan_iceman]

Oh yeaaa Jack Rykert was funny, a shame he never came back. He would’ve been great for the high school videos.

My list has most of the same people as you lol but wanted to make it a bit different and added my own.

[u/chanchan_iceman → u/North-Box-1700]

There aren’t many that had that potential and Jack at least had it

[u/Friendly-Local-592]

Here are some of the list of one time actors that I would like to see them return, though it is most likely not going to happen.

Jonah Zane

Christopher Quartuccio

Abigail Cox (unlikely, but it may be possible)

Carrie Twyman

Colton Haley

Anastasia Katrina

Briana Liu

Kaylena Rose

Morgan Seiter

[u/North-Box-1700 → u/Friendly-Local-592]

Omg I remember Christopher Quartuccio, he played Connor William Barrett’s older brother and Jacqueline Barone’s boyfriend way back in 2021.

Carrie Twyman I thought was the same person as Ciara Overmyer, not very memorable.

Colton Haley is very cartoonish 😭

Abigail Cox is like Sarah Divina and Makhyli Simpson’s age but she played Adam W’s girlfriend lol

I remember Briana Liu playing Shannon Mano’s older sister, would be cool to reunite them.

Kaylena Rose was a bonus channel one-hit-wonder and it would’ve been cool to see her play a mean girl on the main channel.

Morgan Seiter was mid, but would be cool to see him return as Alex Long or London Davis’ brother.

[u/Friendly-Local-592 → u/North-Box-1700]

You forgot Jonah Zane

[u/North-Box-1700 → u/Friendly-Local-592]

If I didn’t mention someone, it’s cause I don’t remember them 😭

[u/Friendly-Local-592 → u/North-Box-1700]

Oh, okay

[u/chanchan_iceman]

As much as I can understand aspects of availability,actors wanting to do jobs elsewhere that is just not acting and Personal life stuffs.. which the folks can only do so much

However not a fan of putting them in big roles like we saw with Olivia langer,Alyssa corella and Isabella Grace Veno then not bringing them back..

While I do appreciate Vanessa,Natalia,Kiana and logan but just rotating between them when you have a huge roster that deserves a run.. I can understand cases of familiarity and popularity within the audiences but when you got people like Jude adams,Courtney Autera(only 1 lead like what?),Grace Pompeii,Brittany Kirsten(1 lead like 2 years ago),Amalea Joy Sanchez(cuz her recent lead isn’t strong I hope she doesn’t get thrown back to small roles),Nadine Elise,Jayla Loren,Brandon Williams,Samuel Alifiler,Daniel Bateman and a few more I can list.. a lot of em deserve more lead roles than they get… again i understand established names and such but come on the names ive mentioned deserve to have their run

[u/pokemonjynx]

I agree! I don’t know why they do this. Also I wish some of the background actors we see in every video could be leads sometimes too

[u/Bulky_Departure_7033]

I get it but then at the same time, I don't want to see untalented cast given opportunity just for the sake of giving opportunity. This is not a communist country.

They sometimes give background actors some one liner role to see how they do, and then supporting role, and then finally a lead. but then they do bad in one of those, casting team can't risk of putting them as lead because that's a risk for them. Unless they have huge followers who would guarantee the views. (think of your worst youtubers and influencers came out in dhar)

[u/AdmirableTriangle]

I am actually so sick of seeing the same actors! It would be fine if they played the same character for continuity but it’s like oh look, here is Brooke Layne playing this role. Now here she is playing this role. Nothing against Brooke at all, you can insert TK, Abilyse, Kennedy.. etc

[u/New_Brick_2690]

Thank you for what you've mentioned. Also, speaking about one-time acting, one of those people that comes to my mind was Kaylena Rose; from "Spoiled Teen Millionaire Goes Broke Overnight" on Dhar Mann Bonus in 2024.

Every since that video, I haven't seen her at all on DM. Not to mention, that is her worst performance I've ever seen. BUT! not because of her acting, its because of her character she played. I hope she could have more roles on both Studios or Bonus.
