OLTL: Actress leaving before the end

[Eric83]

Agreed.

I really hope she can come in for a day and have something with Cassie/Addie/Kelly/Blair/Starr/Langston/Hope and something with Viki.

[DRW50]

The show has worked very hard over the last few years to make sure viewers know Blair and Starr exist only to be in Todd's harem, so I don't expect much between the two of them and Dorian. I just wish they could at least have Cassie back.

[Cheap21]

Awful. I cant imagine the show ending without Dorian. I wonder if they would consider getting Princi to return for the final weeks

[alexisfan07]

Is it just me or does Robin sound oh too eager to leave? And her remark about it being "mutual"? I think the health reasons were partially BS.

[DRW50]

I don't think she sounds eager at all. I think she sounds resigned and trying to move forward. She's given 30 years, off and on, to this show, sometimes in ugly circumstances. I think not being at the end is going to be very tough for her. I also don't think she is the type of person who would exaggerate health problems.

[Cheap21]

I always thought it was BS. I think ABC got upset at her new found obsession with Twitter and canned her. She may have health issues but I dont think they are preventing her from remaining on.

[DRW50]

I think if that were the reason she would go on about it and not her health. Back surgery is pretty serious and would be enough to sideline.

[~bl~]

If it is mutual, it could mean it is not just about her health...SIGH Sad that she won't be there at the end, but perhaps they can do a David/Dorian insert for the end. I doubt she would want to get into trouble if it was for some other reason, sometimes you can't disclose due to being penalized.

[DRW50]

She would probably find a way to say it.

I also think if this was about ABC wanting payback, they would just fire her and write her out offcamera.

[SFK]

I agree with Carl. But if she was in fact pushed out, we will certainly hear about it someday. Like a couple weeks after the last show airs.

[alexisfan07]

I thought maybe the "mutual" remark was her way of commenting on it, maybe not though

[OLTL_fan]

Well ABC certainly was not going to make her stay so thats why I think it was mutual.

[dragonflies]

Gina's leaving too? From RS twitter

Have no control over how they'll write Dorian/Kelly off by July 1- I haven't had significant story in years-hoping they'll do D. and K.good.

Suggestion: PLEASE AVOID referencing GLASSES that are HALF empty or FULL. I'm so touchy - I'm liable to empty that glass in your face! (lol) NO PAIN NO GAIN/ANOTHER DOOR OPENING? Huh, wuh? What part of shut the bleep up don't they get? Axed and whacky need support not platitudes.

Sure sounds like they were condescending and probably told her she wouldn't be allowed back for the finale. And she says "axed." UGH, if they fired her...

This woman needed Twitter like Mel Gibson needs vodka.
