Members Sylph Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 Susan Flannery sucks. Not as much as Robin, but still in a very substantial amount. She just... Sleepwalks around LA, bored to death, dressed in the most horrific of costumes ever on any show... Time to get rid of her. That is, if a miracle doesn't happen. And a miracle is a story not involving her sick attachedness to her son, Brooke, Taylor or Eric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 There has been no real direction for the character of Dorian in years. From the beginning of Robin's return in 2003, she was, for confusing reasons, marrying the man who had nearly raped her daughter. The only real way to play any of that was to go OTT. I do think in some stories, like the Buddhist stuff last year, she's been more restrained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 so she responded. What do you want me to say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I disagree. She has had 10 years to become, at the very least, a decent actress. Farrah has not done that, so yes it's hard to see comments from posters about how much she sucks, but the truth is always painful. Farrah is aweful, and for someone who has been in the business for the time that she has, it's a shame that she has not made any efforts to do better. She is lucky to have a lead role because she doesn't deserve it. She does not have to be Robin Strasser, but can she at least aspire to be as good as the kitchen sink?

Members alphanguy74 Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 But Sylph... nobody puts stock in your opinions on actors because you don't like anybody. But your'e right on the money about the clothes. Flannery is dressing butcher than Lea Delaria at an Anne Murray concert! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I can understand someone being upset if they were constantly being personally attacked by people who don't even know them. And lord knows, there are quite a few people in the soap industry who would definitely have a leg to stand on if they wanted to raise a stink over that, but presumably, Fath is pissed because of what people say about her acting. Again, she is in a service industry, working for a company (ABC) to provide a service for consumers (the audience). In any other service industry setting, any other one, if a customer felt he or she was receiving half-assed service, he or she would be fully within his or her rights to complain, and if said service didn't improve, the complaining would not stop. It's up to no one but Fath to say whether or not she's giving her all, so I don't begrudge her that, but to insist that the audience has to enjoy it (or at least accept it) is preposterous and a little bit entitled. No one complains about her acting because they have a personal vendetta against her or just want to make things tough for her. It's because her acting, her "all," just isn't translating well to them. It's a bitch to know that people don't like the job you're doing (been there, don't that -- several times), but no one is gonna suddenly start liking it just because you want them to. And all of this doesn't even take into account the fact that she (rather stupidly) got way too specific with her declaration. A general "message board people" or "online fans" would not have caused this much mess at all. And oh my god. Oh my God. This is exactly who she reminds me of: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SOAPSFOREVER Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I'm not looking at Flannery for her clothes. I'm looking for her acting chops, which she delivers in spades most days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 The topic is "Farah Fath's meltdown," not "Sylph once again derails a thread with his ersatz 'shocking' opinions and talk about himself, all designed to do nothing but talk about himself and how special and unique he is in this land of philistines."

Members marceline Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 I'm beginning to feel bad for her. Not for the bashing but because she isn't understanding that this is a losing battle. Farah, sweetie if you are reading this...well that's the problem, isn't it? You can't win against the internet. The web is made of three things: unfiltered opinion, shopping and porn. Look around this board. Do you see any shopping or porn? Take a cue from Clifton: smoke a joint and relax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted March 10, 2010 Members Share Posted March 10, 2010 And why does she talk about herself in the third person? Is this really her official MySpace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
