  We just saw an interview with Melody Thomas Scott saying when Jill was hired they all feared and heard the reports the wicked witch is coming to Genoa City. Melody said JIll has been nothing but great and a doll. Well maybe MTS has become an FOJ. Josh wanted to know whats Jill's deal cause she laughs and jokes around with the cast and Steve Burton says Jill is the best person on the planet. Again you here from Linda Dano to Kale Browne to Steve Burton they all think she is best thing since sliced bread. U hear from Robin Strasser, Laura Koffman, Jackie Zeman, and others who have dealt with her saying she was meanest nastiest woman ever on planet. What do you think is truth here LOL? Is Jill really a doll or an evil C&&t?

What r the Y&R actors gonna say, she is their boss.  They praised LML and MAB when they  were tthire Boss and after they got fired talked ish.

 

JFP has been very good to LD, KB, SB, etc., etc., so them loving her is not surprisingLOL

 

She is prolly somewhere in the middle!

[frequentsoapfan]

I swear we have one of these threads once every month.

[Dr Neil Curtis]

IKR. everyone is not going to have the same views. of course Laura Koffman and Jackie Zeaman would detest her, she disliked them and push them out.

IMO. She's a bitch. Period.

 

I haven't liked her work or her since I found out about what happened to Anna Lee. Also, Jill makes the most screwed up decisions I've ever seen. She seems to hate vets, writes for only a few characters, and loves violence. Also, she sucks the heart right out of a show. Watching Y&R is so boring now. It wasn't great with the last regime either. But, I would at least still be entertained. 

 

Also. IMO. She's going to fire most vets on Y&R. I can just smell it coming. She's doing what was done to mid 00s GH over there right now.

 

This storyline with MTS/Nikki don't surprise me in the least. And, I believe she'll get her walking papers soon. Whether she thinks she's being a FOJ or not. Also, I think DD/Paul will go soon. He's being given the Tony Jones treatment by being shoved in the background and getting like one show a week. Not to mention Jeanne Cooper.

 

She's already making a vet closet. And, she's just about ready to start shoving them in there.

 

Also. Steve Burton is hogging airtime. And, I hate it.

The same thing could be said about any one of us. There are some posters on this board that irritate the hell out of me, but yet someone else is laughing and giggling with them and it leaves me dumbfounded. Then the flipside, I adore and laugh my ass off with some of the posters on here... while others find them detestable and I'm left just as dumbfounded. Nobody is going to be liked by everybody and nobody is going to be disliked by everybody. The key is understanding that personal opinion is just that. Personal. It's not a hard and fast rule. So if people find JFP evil, that's their perception of them. If people find JFP a doll, that's their perception of them. It's not as if we can twist her apart at the waist and see if her core is pure evil or goodness.

Love this response. I don't know why one of these threads is created every month now as if something will change. And they are always filled with people talknig about what will happen on Y&R when they barely watch the show.

That about sums it up.  Folks can attempt to whitewash her to their hearts' content, but her handiwork speaks for itself.

[Darlotto99]

Im not exactly sure how to describe her as head of Y&R but her history with other shows is well documented but maybe just maybe with CBS and the Bells looking over her sholder they won't let her fire the core characters of Y&R no matter her feelings of the actors/actresses.

Although she won several Emmys for her General Hospital work, I will always look back at that particular era (2001-2011) as the worst ever for that show.  Sonny, Jason and Carly day in and day out.  That s*#@ became unwatchable by 2003 or 2004.

[EastMA2]

I LOVE Jill! I spoke with her in person at length and she is a very intelligent woman. One of the things that I like most about her is that she is aware of her detractors, but she couldn't care less about them. She keeps doing her thing, right or wrong, and keeps getting jobs and Emmys. Good for her!

[OldGHFan]

She could be the nicest woman on the planet - I just don't like what she did to my show.  She gutted General Hospital, dismantled the Qs, and made it entirely about Sonny, Jason and Carly.  Ugh.  Good riddens.  I'm so glad she's off my show.  Good luck Y&R.  You're going to need it.

[Darlotto99]

I just think she's the wrong fit at Y&R. I have always disliked outsiders coming to the show and changing it just like LML that's how i view her

Very well said.

[MrQuartermaine]

I give Jill a lot of credit for GH won many Emmys under her reign, but her casting decisions speak for themselves. Firing a 90 year old, several 30 year veterans, and GH's last two remaining original cast members is something that no matter how hard Frank Valentini tries, will never be able to be fixed 100%.

[Mr. Vixen]

Who was the other original that she fired other than Rachel Ames?

[Cheap21]

GH didnt have any original cast members on its roster when JFP took over

I know Rachel Ames is often just considered to be one.
