Y&R Casts New 'Malcolm' - But Is He The Right Choice?


 
   Darius McCrary, the new 'Malcolm' on Y&R

Well, the word is that Y&R has finally recast the role of 'Malcolm' that made Shemar Moore famous, and the coveted role went to Darius McCrary who is best known as Eddie Winslow on the long-running ABC sitcom Family Matters - has signed a multi-year deal to assume the role beginning Nov. 18. His debut will air on Dec. 29.

While I believe that Darius is a pretty good actor, I have to wonder why they selected him for the role of Malcolm.  Malcolm was about sex appeal, charisma, and ooohh la la, and I'm not sure if diehard Y&R fans or Malcolm fans will take this selection seriously.  Here are a couple of options that TPTB should have considered for the eye candy the Malcolm character brought to the role:


Hottie Marcus Patrick


Cutie Charles Divins

These two are just a couple of options that could have filled Shemar's big shoes, but I suppose it remains to be seen if Darius will be accepted in the role.
