Members Cheap21 Posted November 18, 2007 Members Share Posted November 18, 2007 simple answer...she was boring! I liked JB from OLTL and AW and was excited to see her come on GH but the character was a complete and utter waste. Tehy stuck her with Roy who was also boring and those two were the worst couple the year they were together. They were a snoozefest and the character wasnt going anywhere so they axxed her and that was a good decision. They started to ruin Bobbie by making her jealous and petty just to prop them up and that didnt go well with me. I dont remember what her last name was, I guess since she wasnt memorable at all.

Members angel Posted November 18, 2007 Members Share Posted November 18, 2007 I remember they wrote her off by doing mercy killings and her last word was "Judas." I want to see Jensen on another show as a good character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 18, 2007 Members Share Posted November 18, 2007 Oh, God, don't get me started on the overrated pile of crap and FOJ that is Jensen Buchanan. Not only did she RUIN Vicky/Marley on AW, but her acting and character were a total mess on GH, and she would've never been casted had Jill Farren Phelps not been there.

Members Graciecat Posted November 18, 2007 Members Share Posted November 18, 2007 I'm having a hard time placing her. Was she the one Edward adored, because she was apparantly the only competant nurse at GH, and briefly wanted to make his heir (or something like that)?

Members Vee Posted November 18, 2007 Members Share Posted November 18, 2007 Yes, Gracie, that was Melissa. She was a terrible character, another JFP/Megan McTavish heroine. They tried to heavily promote Roy and Melissa as a supercouple and threw Bobbie under the bus. It was just ghastly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tishy Posted November 18, 2007 Members Share Posted November 18, 2007 Yes her name was Melissa Bradford. She was horrible in pairing her up with Roy. Do you remember the clusterfuck that happened when she was still appearing on ATWT as Vicky and GH as Melissa and P&G threatened to sue? I liked Melissa in the beginning, because I love Jensen. But the GH canvas is better off without her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members leevo64 Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 For a while it looked like there was going to be some sort of big secret because weird things were happening to Bobbie leading up to Melissa Bedford's introduction. Then they dropped that, the story sucked and she went psycho within the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TC Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 She was pretty good on AW, but apparently quite the diva. So she decides she no longer wants to play both twins, Vicky and Marley. That's fine, though she did a pretty good job of it. So they rehire the original Vicky/Marley Ellen Wheeler to play Marley after a "disfigurng accident", so they no longer have to look alike. Jensen gets the big bucks for playing Vicky, while her much more talented twin actress was not only given a new face, but was apparently melted and stretched to about 6 inches taller. ...leaving the likes of Patty Duke and Hayley Mills quite confused.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 I HATED her on AW, and on just about anything else. She never had the dept and emotional maturity that both Ellen Wheeler and Anne Heche had, which is probably why they have Emmy's for the role, while she doesn't. I'll never forgive for ruining Vicky and Marley. LOL! I thought Cynthia Watros did a MUCH BETTER job as Vicky, when she temporarily filled in for Jensen in 1998. Now Watros was certainly a high caliber actress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 I also seem to recall reading that GH had had other plans for the character that became Melissa before JFP took over, something about Bobbie Eakes in the role as a psychiatrist who falls for Stefan. Don't know if that's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 JFP's first two years on GH were horrible, it also didn't help that McTavish was her partner in crime. They just didn't mesh well with the show at all. As much as a lot of people hated Wendy Riche towards the end of her tenure, the show fell apart without her. JFP tried to bring the show back to the adventure-type storytelling that was popular in the 80's, but it didn't work. Hell, I still don't know why JFP is still EP of GH, or why Frons keeps any of those cowardly EP's at ABC employed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Did the JFP/McTavish era produce that storyline of bringing back Stavros played by Robert Kelker Kelly, in which he had been frozen for some odd number of years and never aged?

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Yes. LOL JFP/McTavish also misinterpreted something Anthony Geary wrote, which made him pissed and he spoke out about it in the press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
