Members DRW50 Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 What a [!@#$%^&*] joke. I swear we mentioned her when we were joking a few years back. It just never stops. Based on her backstage behavior, she'll fit right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ann_SS Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 Brett Butler. Talk about a blast from the past. Wasn't she an alcoholic or maybe she had a nervous breakdown that destroyed her show? I can't remember the details. I don't think I ever knew them.

Members DRW50 Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 She was supposedly a huge mess on Grace Under Fire and it destroyed her career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 Brett Butler was brought up only weeks ago. Oh MAB, you never fail to disappoint. Since MAB is clearly paying attention to these threads for her casting notices... Joan Collins IN as Victor Newman's ex-British lover whose out to destroy Sharon!

Members DRW50 Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 You should point out that Joan was also on The Nanny AND Roseanne, since she loves her 90's sitcoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 And she was on FOX's short lived Pacific Palisades, so we've got our 90s genres covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 If we can convince her that that was an ABC soap then we're really golden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 This should be the title of every Y&R spoiler thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 I guess I am the only fan of Grace Under Fire around here (at least of the first two seasons). Either way, I hope that she's on the wagon now and has put her bad behavior behind her. A soap cameo isn't exactly an upper-tier job, but it'll be good if at least opens a door or two for higher-profile stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 She's just finished a show with Charlie Sheen, so I guess Y&R is a step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 Well....Dynasty was an ABC soap... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 She's a stand up comedian from Alabama who had her own sitcom on ABC, Grace Under Fire (1993-1998), until it was abruptly pulled off the air because her drug addiction proved too distracting and resulted in several cast members quitting before it was cancelled. There was also allegedly an infamous incident where she flashed her breasts while on drugs to the young boy who played her son, which resulted in his parents pulling him off the show (his character, Quentin, was aged and replaced with a teenage actor). Cole and Dylan Sprouse played her youngest son, Patrick. They were so cute. I'm glad to see her working again (she stepped away for a long while to get clean, although she has apparently discovered a talent for being a psychic--um, okay), but as for Y&R--oh, MAB--I don't even watch it and I know this is par for the course with her. All this does is irritate me because I've watched clips of GUF on YouTube and liked them, but Oxygen doesn't air it anymore so I can't see more of it! Gah .
