Holy star wars! It looks like Doogie Howser has declared war on Victor Newman! Earlier today, Neil Patrick Harris (Barney, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER) took Eric Braeden (aka THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ tyranical tycoon, Victor) to task via twitter. “Eric Braeden is a D-Bag,” read Harris’ tweetstream of the daytimer who has guested on HIMYM in the past as the father of the character Robin. “The actor… agreed to do a cameo, then last night bailed, saying the part wasn’t ‘substantial’ enough.” Shortly after, Harris sent a follow-up tweet reading, “We’ve recast with Ray Wise, a fantastic actor who makes any part ‘substantial.’ Super excited to welcome him to the family!” Ironically, Braeden’s character on the Geano City-based soap is well known for regularly disowning members of the Newman clan who disappoint him.
