Members Antoyne Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Even without the interview everyone knew she was unhappy..I've never seen deader eyes on an actor/actress and that's saying something since I occasionally watch Y&R...I will say though, she completely perked up in that scene with JD.

Members Cheap21 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 She should have never returned to the show. I thought her first few months under Broderick were good when she was paired with David, but the second it looked like she and Ryan were destined for a reunion, she went downhill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 I don't see any real difference in Greenlee then and now, other than she doesn't whine about her daddy. The rest is the same Greenlee - insecurity, bitchiness, self-righteous ranting. Josh Duhamel had charisma and Mathison has none. That may be the main difference. That and Budig hating her job for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Max Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Actually, I believe that some of the weekly ratings for GL got as low as a 1.3 or 1.4. Thus, the ratings posted for LMAD are considerable improvements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 I thought the last year was usually around 1.5 or 1.6, with the ratings crashing mostly after the cancelation was announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Yeah, it was fine until they paired her back up with Ryan.... I think Rebecca Budig clearly does not like Rylee... so did Frons outright lie to her to get her to come back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Not really. I fantasize about it everytime her airhogging ass shows up on my screen. Mathison can do alright when his character is handled properly. Ryan was very good with Gillian and, IMO Madison. I think both RB and CM hate Rylee but Frons loves them therefore they are shackled together forever in soap history regardless of suck factor. Anyway we've gotten off topic, we're just about due for another round of PP rumors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Harmony233 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Can you blame her? I think she liked David/Greenlee I don't know if frons lied or not but when they get new headwriters it seemed to go in a differnt direction back to Rylee I do think that Friday with leo is the first time I have seen her come alive in awhile.

Members Max Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Carl, the 1.3-1.4 GL ratings I was referring to did occur after the cancellation announcement. However, the LMAD ratings that I posted for the week of March 7-11, 2011 show a rating of 1.7 for the first 30 minutes and a 1.9 for the last 30 minutes, which are still better than the 1.5's and 1.6's that GL got before the announcement.

Members R Sinclair Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Rylee's always been RB's Kryptonite. It's the common denominator in all of her departures/expressions of unhappiness. 2005 Departure - Rylee 2008 Return - Aidan/Greenlee 2009 Departure - Rylee 2009 Return - David/Greenlee 2011 "Moved on" - Rylee She's not being given anything new to play other than variations of Rylee. They'll lure her back with something fresh and immediately pull a bait and switch routine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 EXACTLY! Which is why I've never understood it when people go ranting and raving about how RB "always gets her way" and that she controls Frons and in turn controls the show. That's nonsense. She hasn't had a long-term commitment to this character in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Sums it up nicely. However, its her own fault she keeps falling for the bait a switch. A Pavlov dog she is not evidently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 I don't believe she controls Frons, or the show, but I think she has more leeway than a lot of co-stars, especially if it's true that she was a big reason why Pratt was pushed out.

Members Harmony233 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Thats bad because from my understanding most of the cast hated pratt lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 You're right, but it's interesting to me that she only returned right after he was suddenly fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
