Members detroitpiston Posted March 6, 2008 Members Share Posted March 6, 2008 TIIC at ATWT(specifically Goutman) are bastards. Martha should have gotten what ever she wanted! I'm glad Martha called their bluff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Judipur Posted March 6, 2008 Members Share Posted March 6, 2008 From what I understand all MB wanted was a say in what her character does. Goutman should have given that to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AddictedToSoaps Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 ATWT does not understand what a huge loss she is for them. Such a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kubla Khan Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 It says a lot that Martha Byrne has had enough of Goutman's bullcrap. Martha used to be Goutman's biggest cheerleader -- think about around the time she won the Emmy -- and now she's leaving on bad terms. Goutman needs to go; the show is bleeding out! Good luck, Martha. You have been a huge asset to ATWT for so long, and it sucks that they treated you like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Actor87 Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 I'm so pissed.......I can't even put it into words how badly this infuriates me....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 I cannot believe how utterly unprofessional and horrible ATWT/P&G/Goutman was to Martha Byrne. She's one of THE STARS of ATWT and ATWT will have a HUGE void when she leaves. I hope AMC or ONE LIFE picks her up. I could see her on AMC maybe as Lainie Cortlandt or Kelsey Jefferson.

Members Khan Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 Whoa, I think she might be a little ... mature for Kelsey. But, I wouldn't mind seeing her play Bonnie McFadden. (And while we're at it? Lisa Brown as Devon, too.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 OMGosh, Ryan thanks for posting this even though I am now speechless. What a class act she was agreeing to take a pay cut and then negotiating another multi year contract to stay on the show, only to have talks hit an impasse. What a way to find out the show is done with you than to see a script for your recast!!!!!!!! Something tells me the end of "the World" is not to far off. I am glad Martha stood up to Goutman and left, here is hoping that we will see her on another daytime show. I could see her on AMC or OLTL. Heck, if she went out to the West Coast again I would not mind seeing her on Days, Y&R or B&B. I do know at one point (when she first left ATWT back in the 90's) she auditioned for the role of Billie on Days and some of the music Days has used, Martha has written. ATWT loss is and definitely will be another shows gain.... Has PGP not woken up and smelled the coffee yet, so far two of their big name stars have left their shows. First RPG, now MB.....whose next???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darcy Posted March 7, 2008 Members Share Posted March 7, 2008 AMC treats many of their stars as horribly as Martha was treated (unprofessional, horrible, etc. - Sabine Singh, Cady McClain, Julia Barr and probably many more). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jjjg Posted March 10, 2008 Members Share Posted March 10, 2008 What a loss. Lily and Holden are one of the last true supercouples left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted March 11, 2008 Members Share Posted March 11, 2008 She's WAY too old to be Kelsey. Kelsey is in the Fusion girl age range. I cant see Martha mixxing it up with them. Kelsey should be Greenlee's age and Martha looks like she could play her young mother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
