Roman that is hilarious :lol:

If they lose Zapato, you know the show is in trouble :lol:

If Zapoto goes, that's it. I'm done with Y&R.

I'm sorry.

If I do that again, just sprinkle Holy Water on your moniter when I post and keep repeating "The Power Of VR Compels You!!!! The Power Of VR Compels You!!!" :)

I can't get on you for that. It may be a reality that tiic think that CK can step up to the plate with VR gone. I mean, they have just about acknowledged her as a young Meryl Streep. :blink:

I am going to really miss Victoria when she steps away from the role; however, I can understand...Maybe she wasn't liking the direction in which her character was going...I mean, yes, Dru is fierce and Victoria plays the role to a expert t, however, maybe she feels that she needs to branch out from where they wanted her to go.

You know, that Zapoto is really Lassie. Lassie was shot on a cliff by Deputy Dog, and kidnapped. From there, plastic surgery was performed and he was brainwashed into thinking he was Zapoto.

Ok. I'll stop now. I hate that she's going, and would just like to know what they are going to do with the character.

At first I was shocked. Then I remembered, this is 2007 in soapland.

I'm going to miss her. I hope, should soaps have a future, that she's part of it down the road. Not that her talents can't be appreciated elsewhere.

I don't think that's the reason. I just hope she didn't get the "Shemar complex" and decided she shouldn't do daytime anymore.

No one will have to do "daytime" in a few years because at the rate there likely won't be any soaps left to be on. They'll just have to settle for prime time crap instead.

Those Pre-Noms for Y&R are a joke. What did Christel have to submit, as those accident scenes were painful for many of us to watch. Victoria is too good for Y&R and I would love to see her on Desperate Housewives.

Edit: another one that would be good would be B&B which also needs some diversity. They could also use an over the top character like Drucilla after the loss of the over the top Sally. I could just see Dru deciding to quit cosmetics and become a designer and resurect Spectra.

LML said she don't care what the fans want. That why we have to cal ltheir comment line & tell then LML don't care what we want but Y&R better care.

Wow, I am very shocked to hear about this. IMO, Victoria Rowell is popular enough and well-known enough (especially by, yes, the black community, as I've witnessed multiple times by friends, acquaintances, etc.) that her face and "Y&R" go hand-in-hand.

But, I'm not surprised that VR has been snubbed by co-stars multiple times for Emmy pre-noms. As someone who once walked those hallowed halls (haha, as an intern) I can definitely tell you that VR had her days where she was very sweet and other days where she was a straight-up diva with a capital [!@#$%^&*]. One time on the set, she had a misunderstanding with Michelle Stafford (this was back when they had alot of scenes together in the Newman offices) and it escalated to the point that MS walked off the stage. The two had to have a meeting with Jack Smith, etc. to settle it. Another time, VR was putting her own spin on her dialogue and the producers wanted her to say it the way it was written. She refused, and they called up to Jack Smith in the offices and when VR talked to him on the phone, she flat-out lied about what the producers were telling her to do. I know this happened because I was there, sitting in the producers booth observing, and watched as various people had their jaws dropped that VR had the audacity to lie about them right in front of their faces.

So, like I said, she has her diva moments.

It is so strange and disheartening to see Y&R changing overnight because with all the chaos and crumbling of daytime soaps, Y&R always stayed strong and held steady, keeping its storylines strong and respectable, and keeping its talented veteran cast and utilizing them. It's a shame to see the No. 1 show being completely overhauled with no good reason.

I did like Victoria Rowell, though. She was always nice to me. :) And even though I'm as gay as they come, she had such nice round perky bosoms. :lol:

WOW! :lol:

I wish I could be an intern.

Exactly, these "changes" are going to make it entirely easy for me to let go of the soaps once they are cancelled.

Eeeee. Not me. DH has been dreadful. It would be a hoot to see her on Ugly Betty though! Or a doctor at Grey's.
