February 18, 201115 yr Member Long line at the methadone clinic today, Sylph? The minute I saw this news I knew exactly what you would do.
February 18, 201115 yr Member Probably just bored and looking for attention........ I wish SID would post more about this, a press release or something
February 18, 201115 yr Member Long line at the methadone clinic today, Sylph? The minute I saw this news I knew exactly what you would do. +1. I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand I am EXTREMELY thrilled that all of us rabid Becky fans hounded them like we did. It obviously made a difference. And I'm glad the A-Holes behind this decision finally have to admit they've made a mistake. Part of me is thrilled Liz is staying. But another part of me knows she won't be given any treatment and I wouldn't be surprised if she gets the true-vet treatment now. I do want better than that for Becky. Oh and as for Becky "phoning it in"...No. Becky has been given some SHITTY material over the last few years, but she's acted the hell out of it. Mixed bag. But good for Becky. As a mother of three, I'm sure she needs the steady income.
February 18, 201115 yr Member I wish SID would post more about this, a press release or something Give them time. I admit that I'm very curious what the after effects of this will be especially since we know that GH is the soap that had it's budget slashed. (That's been confirmed right?) I assume she's taking a pay cut because it's pretty obvious that everybody at ABC is. I was trying to think of the last time a fan campaign worked to reverse a firing and the only one I can think of was Nathaniel Marston on OLTL.
February 18, 201115 yr Member Oh, look at that. People doing what they always do. Lame. But expected.
February 18, 201115 yr Member I wonder if they will take RH and others off contract with the understanding that they will get steady work. There is only so much salary that GH can cut from salaries and production values.
February 18, 201115 yr Member I think under a capable and truly talented writer, Liz could be much more than she is right now under Guza. She is a Weber for christ sake. Awww.....I was awaiting to hear that Herbst had been cast on DAYS as the new Taylor
February 18, 201115 yr Member Liz has always gotten on my nerves, aside from a year or two in the late 90s, but you can do a lot with her as a character. She can be a plot agitator, she can play romance, she can play feuds, she can be the mother, she has ties to all of the show's "heroes." There are many characters GH could write out with no real impact. Nik being #1 on my list. Spinelli. Jax. Ethan. Lucky. Siobhan. Lulu. The sad joke that has become Maxie. Alexis, although NLG is great. I don't think that Kristina or Molly would be a big loss either. That's just counting people on contract - although if Sonny's annoying bodyguard is on contract I would like him to go too. (I would also be happy to see Luke, Jason, and Brenda/Sonny go, but that's not happening). Edited February 18, 201115 yr by CarlD2
February 18, 201115 yr Member Oh, look at that. People doing what they always do. Lame. But expected. Really?! Zach Conroy?!
February 18, 201115 yr Member Really?! Zach Conroy?! I'm a "hipster troll". (Watch people say: Yes, you are.)
February 18, 201115 yr Member Well, anyway, congrats to Becky Herbst!! If I was her I would still haul ass, but she is doing what she think is best. The whole mobfest should be fired before Becky.
February 18, 201115 yr Member I'm looking forward to her one day a week appearances. Still more than Olivia. Edited February 18, 201115 yr by SoapBoy94
February 18, 201115 yr Member Well, anyway, congrats to Becky Herbst!! If I was her I would still haul ass, but she is doing what she think is best. Yeah, it would be cool if after all this she simply said "Later bitches! I taught you the lesson you needed to learn."
