Members Chris B Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 Because Heather Tom is one of the actresses they don't care about. With Sharon Case they gave her the world to stay. With St. John, Rowell and Tom it's "take the scraps or leave." But back then Y&R had a cast full of richly defined BILL BELL characters to replace Dru with. The canvas then and now is no contest. Losing any little actor is a big loss to the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members a2sassy Posted February 2, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 The character of Sharon does nothing for me, so if Case leaves, I won't even bat an eyelash. I just feel that Tom was a more valuable asset than Case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dawn9476 Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 I don't think that is why she quit. She barely resigned in 2005 which was before LLM took over the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members a2sassy Posted February 2, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 The reason she barely resigned in '05 was because Jack Smith didn't approach her and Kristoff about resigning until after there contracts were up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 Semi-agree on the bold stuff. I don't say the ratings ALL BUT depend on the black audience, but it makes up a large percentage. Will they be put off enough to stop watching Y&R? I dunno. Y&R had a large black audience before the Barber Sisters were introduced, right? They should have done everything in their power to keep her. This was a *BIG* mistake. Have the prenoms even been released yet?! How do we know she left because she didn't get a prenom? She deserved one that's for sure, but I don't think it could have been JUST that. Dru, even though she has significant airtime, is a caricature these days. But then again, so are a lot of Y&R characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 Have you been sleeping under a rock someplace? LoL! Check out the Emmy forum. There's some, uh... well... a few shockers. (MARTHA MADISON! VICTORIA ROWELL!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dawn9476 Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 I can't believe people are actually saying that she is leaving because she didn't get a pre-nom. How do we know that she didn't take herself out of the running? I know she did it for the NAACP's. Maybe she decided not to submit herself for the emmy's too. How do you know they didn't? You can offer a person everything in the world to stay and they can leave anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DruRocks Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 I doubt VR is leaving because she didn't get a pre-nom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bellcurve Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 Well, we don't But how do YOU know they did? If I were Lynn Marie, I would have set myself on fire if it meant keeping her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 I agree, she definitely wouldn't be that childish about the whole situation. She's been doing a lot in movies over the past year, I think a lot has to do with her wanting the time to try out new things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 Dru is the backbone of the Winters & Babers clan. Without Dru the family are boring. CK Lily doesn't have a back or a bone to carrying the Winters or the Babers. Neil & Devon are boring as hell. They might as well get rid of the Winters & Babers clan now.

Members winterguy125 Posted February 2, 2007 Members Share Posted February 2, 2007 I agree with that, I don't really think VR would leave because of something as small as that, could be that she just as alot of things lined up for the next year or so.
