Members soapfan770 Posted March 29, 2011 Members Share Posted March 29, 2011 Actually from the date my immediate thought could this be the legendary Jacqueline Schultz and Collen Zenk feud? Heh, I remember reading Morina's tell all interview she certainly did not hold back at all and with her husband still directing Y&R I'm not surprised she didn't get in trouble. Still I suppose she just needed an outlet to vent her various frustrations of working in daytime for what nearly thirty years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 29, 2011 Members Share Posted March 29, 2011 Were Barbara and Dee friends and was there a five year age difference and only one played love scenes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vizion Posted March 29, 2011 Members Share Posted March 29, 2011 This is a video from the 1991 Luncheon, Gloria Monty takes some time to talk to the fans about the new direction of the show. Anyway, she speaks very candidly about the new direction that she was taking GH, about why some of the casting decisions were made, and mentions a smear campaign against her that she calls "ghastly, unproductive, and discouraging"....I remember reading about this, but does anybody know who was specifically responsible or who she thought was responsible? I know she once mentioned that it was some former castmembers and executives, but she never named names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 29, 2011 Members Share Posted March 29, 2011 Thanks for finding this. Geez that's an awkward video - no wonder John J York looks embarrassed throughout. Who was this Michael person she said she wasn't responsible for getting rid of? Was he the only one she didn't fire? How long after this was she replaced?

Members Vizion Posted March 29, 2011 Members Share Posted March 29, 2011 Michael Watson (he played Lucy's cousin Decker). I found an Entertainment Weekly article where Gloria Monty talks a bit more about this "smear campaign" http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,314802,00.html Here is an excerpt (there's more, but I didn't want to post the whole thing): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 29, 2011 Members Share Posted March 29, 2011 Thank you for taking the time to find this. I wonder if this is one of those things about not being nice on the way up. Monty seemed very tough in her first GH run - were people waiting for her to fail? Something I've always been confused about is the relationship with Tristan Rogers. When Tristan left the first time (1986 or 1987) he credited Gloria Monty and didn't seem overly thrilled about her replacement. Yet he then went on to quit in 1992 because of Gloria. What specifically made him change his view? I know Tony Geary supported her to the end, didn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted April 8, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 Carl I Think It Was The Way GM Treated Finola Replacing Her After She Got Jack's Place. I Think TR was upset and quit and that was the last straw for ABC they FiredGM and Hired Wendy Riche Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tylerbo20 Posted April 8, 2011 Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 sounds like Susan Seaford Hayes didnt get along with many people at days..but she did admit that in her book..also CC said in an interview that during her run on days she wasnt the easiest person to get along with but if you notice at the book signings she never really sits next to deidre hall or talk to her inthe back ground lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted April 8, 2011 Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 I wonder if DAYS' Bryan Dattilo has any beef with James Scott or Galen Gering... Both of them basically cost him his job (or rather, the writers/producers did, but you know actor egos) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ghfan89 Posted April 9, 2011 Members Share Posted April 9, 2011 Tristan had been planning to leave in 1990, the year before, but Gloria convinced him to stay another year to help her out. He had been planning to leave all along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JackPeyton Posted April 9, 2011 Members Share Posted April 9, 2011 Considering the hissy fit he threw he we was let go, and his general piss poor attitude and bad mouthing of both id say he has issues with them. Id also bet he was fired in large part to his attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
