Members DRW50 Posted July 24, 2010 Members Share Posted July 24, 2010 For one thing I didn't think GL was that great in summer 2002, although compared to what was to come with Conboy, it was certainly a masterpiece. Unfortunately at the time some of the stories just got on every nerve I had, as they were so heavy-handed (the impending Phillip/Harley custody battle, Reva's trial for pulling the plug on Richard) or...heinous (Marah ripping off her clothes and yelling at Tony to go through with raping her). I think blaming Moore was another example of soap executives looking for an excuse for a long-standing problem. As the article mentions, black characters had had poor stories on Y&R for years. If black viewers left then Moore's exit was likely the last straw to an already existing problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
