Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 Yet Genie Francis stays her tired one-note/flop ass on contract... If true, Eileen should go back to DAYS, though I have no faith that she would be done justice there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 I think after Vivian's return, Reilly-era characters aren't the best fit for anything in more recent DAYS. I'm not too surprised if Eileen is gone. She came back solely to be a part of that sickening gaslighting story that got Sheffer hot. After this, and the backlash they faced from fans, they have had no idea what to do with her or interest in her. And now comatose Stephen Nichols will get to sleepwalk his way through another failed pairings. I guess at least we can see if he and Genie Francis are as dull as they were on GH.

Members Cat Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 Oh great. Of all the characters -- and actors -- to be let go, this is one I actually care about. And yet a host of others are still stinking up the show? Bad move, Y&R. Jess Walton away on leave and now this? WTF? Eileen Davidson is amazing.

Members John Posted May 9, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 From Nelson Branco's FB Hearing #YR Eileen Davidson is in the middle of a pay negotiation with Sony. Not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 Eileen Davidson has already confirmed she was fired on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 Never liked her. She's an extremely cold actress. Or maybe it's just how she chooses to portray Ashley? I don't know, never seen her in anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 Yes, she is very cold. I do think that she was warmer this time around, and she came alive in some of her B&B work. I always felt like LML made the right decision in letting Ashley go - the character has had no genuine story since her first marriage to VIctor ended, IMO. I hated the sperm story, I loathed it, I thought it was beneath Y&R, and ruined the characters involved. I'm just sorry that they are not getting rid of dead weight like Stephen Nichols and Genie Francis first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 I disagree, I missed Ashley when she was fired by LML. Then again, I was enjoying her hatred of Gloria and was looking forward to that feud over the Abbott money when she got fired. But I've always liked Ashley and Eileen Davidson's portrayal so... Legitimately sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AmandainNC28655 Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 I hope she does go back to Days. Now that Lexie will be gone and the whole EJ paternity story... we need Kristen to make a LONG overdue visit back to Salem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 Legitimately insulting to Eileen. Ashley Abbott is a 30 year character! This is outrageous and ridiculous and that Y&R chose to keep Genie Francis and Stephen Nichols is further proof that being done with this show is the right call. Go to DAYS Eileen, even if it's crappy writing, you'll be on all the time and it won't be a toxic set environment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 I'm so disappointed, but maybe she will end up on Days again. This would be the perfect time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 9, 2012 Members Share Posted May 9, 2012 I honestly don't know if she would be better off at DAYS, she'd probably be tossed out and blamed for not brining up the ratings there in a year. Also, I have very little faith in Corday, Tomlin, and Whitesell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
