So who are some actors/actresses that do not get along with Y&R executive producer JFP? I know of Steven Nicoles and Gennie Frances who are the others??

Laura Koffman, Kari Wuhrer and Lesli Kay spring to mind!

Any Black actor or actress...

Billy Warlock, Clint Ritchie, James DePaiva, and of course, the woman who got one over on JFP, the late great Beverlee McKinsey.

I hate to open a can of worms, MissL, but I never understood why they didn't invite JdP back for a cameo during the last weeks of taping OLTL.  Wasn't bootleg Janet Wood gone by then?

[MissLlanviewPA]

LONG gone from OLTL (about to leave GH), but from what I understand, there was something about how JFP was doing all she could to make Max less and less likable, and given JDP's general outspokeness, I'm sure it wasn't a fun combination (he didn't particularly like Linda Gottlieb, either--he preferred Paul Rauch, who hired him).

As for him not coming back at the end of the series (even though his wife was still there and three of his other leading ladies made appearances themselves--four if you count AE as Tina), it's entirely possible that his reputation at ABC Daytime was such that it transcended from JFP up to the end of the show (Frons apparently was the one who wanted him gone in 2003).

Tristan Rogers in particular doesn't hide his disdain for JFP.

Ah, OK.  Sometimes I get the timelines mixed up since the clusterfucks that were her stints on OLTL and GH seem to bleed together in a river of shittiness.

Basically Bev was able to leave GL while JFP was on vacation--and JFP couldn't do anything about it, because it was in her contract to give--I think-- eight weeks notice before she left, and it fell around the time that Bev would be going on her own vacation.

Someone else might be able to explain it better, though.

If I remember right JDP was asked back for the OLTL finale but turned them down, at least I swear I remember Kassie saying he was asked

[MissLlanviewPA]

Nope, there was an interview with Kassie where she teared up because he was never even asked, which she didn't understand, as he had been there and been successful there long before she was even on the show.

JDP himself, however, said in the OLTL tribute magazine that he didn't care quite as much about not being asked back.

Ah, the late great legendary Beverlee McKinsey who stuck to JFP like no other actor ever did. Good times, good times. It never gets old reminiscing over how JFP got her deserved comeuppance hard and publicly if only once.Too this day, it makes me laugh with glee. The interview that Beverlee did explaining the whole story remains a classic and has been posted at SON several times.

This is pretty much the bottom line.  If I'm not mistaken, they had 2 weeks to give her an exit.  BM royally screwed JFP.
