Members DRW50 Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 Both actors were blamed after the firings. http://tvguide.ca/Soaps/Nelson_Ratings/Articles/100315_soapgeist_NB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 Ah yes, it's all coming back. Ugh, cry me a river. If they had a problem with one of their actors being "'unavailable'" which is Bitchese for, "You know he's got nothing else booked, he just doesn't feel like working and would rather be out partying", offer him a contract or recast his ass. Whose the captain of the ship here? Way to spread the blame. Just own that the higher ups didn't want Kish, regardless of the gays in primetime, this is daytime. Irresponsible actors do not bring about the end of characters in the medium that invented the recast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wizzerkat Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 One thing I have always liked about Soapnet is that they show the episode that day in its entirety even when the show was mostly preempted. If the show was on even a little bit Soapnet shows the whole show later. Does that happen online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 I never saw this, but I always believed it to be true. At least MADD and her big mouth weren't still running the P&G ship. As for ATWT Goutman pulling a Jon Conboy is why that show sucked a lot in 2010.

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 I don't think Nelson wrote up this article. I think it was Michael Logan since it's from TV Guide. Nelson is from TV Guide Canada, I just came across his B&W article this morning. Any of his choices a surprise??

Members marceline Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 LOL! No. That's a pretty predictable list but I am glad that I was mistaken about the OP being from Branco. That would've been a psychotic level of denial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 Nelson was basically trying to play both sides to keep getting access. So he went with the ABC PR flack smear of the two actors playing Kish, while still "supporting" the story and decrying those tactics. His behavior is consistently ridiculous. It mystifies me as to who at ABC thought a smear job was a good idea, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted December 29, 2010 Author Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 Don't these shows realize they only hurt themselves when they do stupid stuff like punishing someone like Logan for giving an opinion about a storyline? It's not like he's the only person who hated that storyline. What next are they gonna ban viewers too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
