Recommended Posts

BEh recently gave a Stardish interview, in which she vented her frustrations about lack of screen time/not being written for, amongst other things. One, being JR Martinez.

Here's what she said in ref to him, as well as how she's been feeling about a few things:

Beth Eh: It was almost like as if he was writing us on our own little show. As many times as I would casually try to go into my boss' office and say, "Um you are going to start integrating me, right?" because you can't...

It's a funny thing...when you've been doing this, as long as I've been doing it, you know how it's suppose to be done. But you can't tell your boss because it's like any other job in the world. You can't know more than your boss because they'd hate you for it and so you have to be careful when you go in, that you don't tell somebody how to do their job and um...but I wanted to scream at people. I just wanted to go in and say helllloooo you're burying me here. You're doing it. You're making this really hard. First you give me someone who, God Bless him...I love JR, but he's not an actor and so you know that's hard enough with somebody who's...it's going to be a long time before he gets out of second gear so um i'm having to constantly hedge my performance because I can't be doing, you know Shakespeare while he's doing something else.

Anyways it got back to JR Martinez & he responded back, on his Twitter & Facebook page.

Twitter comments:I believe everyone including myself knows IM NOT AN ACTOR, however, she never did any coaching. Apparently SHE sold the story

she continuously reminded me I'm not an actor instead of coaching me. I feel some props shld go 2 Brot for holding his own.

Goodnight for real! Better to sleep it off then let things get to me...better day tomorrow

Facebook: Here's another one for your Tuesday morning; not everyone chooses their words carefully b/c they just like to talk. Use it as motivation to prove to yourself that you can. Don't waste your energy to prove it to them b/c all that matters is YOUR opinion! "For every failure, there's an alternative course of action. You just have to find it. When you come to a roadblock, take a detour.

I think she already knows she's going to be gone and that's why she's saying this. (ie. Nia Peeples, she already knew she was leaving so she didn't care that she blasted KSJ in public)

I think she might have stood a chance as Liza but NOBODY has ever cared about Taylor , or have she or the writers gave viewers any reason to.

IMO they should have went full bore with her Right-Wingness and set her up as Pine Valley's verison of Sarah Palin. Once she got out of War Loving mode she kind of lost all purpose.

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.
