Y&R: MAB OUT! Hamner OUT! JFP IN! Griffith IN! Sheffer UNKNOWN!

[Antoyne]

Therein lies the problem with SORASing

I'm reading on twitter that Jeanne Cooper is on a show called The Morning Jolt with Larry Flick.

I guess she said MAB's best friend is money LOL

Jeanne Cooper compared #YoungAndRestless to Birth of a Nation on The Morning Jolt.

Maria didn't understand Katherine at all as a character.

I think Jeanne must have hated playing the Saint Katherine of Genoa City role, especially for such an extended period of time.

Katherine was always at her best when she was a bitter, desperate, and nasty old bitch...

[JaneAusten]

Don't get me started on Emily O'Brien. She's been one of the few more recently cast actors on soaps today who was able to make every piece of garbage thrown at her work. They fire her and keep EH, MR, and hire MCE

[frequentsoapfan]

I miss EOB she made everything entertaining.

[DRW50]

I wonder how she felt about the Fluckers story, when Katherine was a little crazy (although for little apparent reason).

[DeeeDee]

She didn't understand Jill at all as a character either.

Jill repeatedly choosing a man who constantly lied to and manipulated her (Cane) over her own blood son (Billy)?

Jill fighting with GLORIA over men?

Jill being treated like dirt by Tucker and being ok with it?

And all that was BEFORE she was backburnered.

[DRW50]

The worst was when Jill was humiliated at the Billy/Chloe wedding and EVERYONE laughed at her. I think even Brock laughed, which was so OOC.

[y&r_fan]

Are we forgetting the "Jill Abbott Fenmore" fiasco? That was easily the worst thing MAB did to the character.

And for what? She didn't even mine the Jill/Lauren relationship. She had Lauren push Jill into an open grave, then ignored them for months, then suddenly they were BFFs.

[KMan101]

Id even be OK with them just ignoring it going forward. That is if Jill and Lauren are used by JFP and Griffith.

[DRW50]

I thought that was stupid, I just hate it more when the character is humiliated. Scenes like Fluckers escorting Jill out of his hotel room and us seeing a hot babe leave his bathroom right after - I hate it. The message was clearly - Tucker is a stud, Jill is a hag, ooh yeah! I will never forget that, and I have never, ever liked [!@#$%^&*] er as a result.

I am one of those rare fans that love both General Hospital and One Life to Live as I would twins of mine (I started watching both in the summer of 1992 when the devil cancelled Santa Barbara), in the summer of 1992.

But how many of you do not even have experience watching OLTL to not even know the brilliant work that was done from the past five years??? You keep name calling (Cartooni) and yet I am not even sure if you are giving them a chance.

And for the record, I have also been watching Santa Barbara, As the World Turns, Guiding Light and all the others and I think GH is actually incredible at the moment.

[frequentsoapfan]

Brilliant work? One of my favorite characters ended up dying because of a lasting effect of a hate crime with FV as producer. Another one of my faves went crazy and commited suicide. Another one got backburned and badly written until the actor left. He and RC wash, rinse, repeat storylines all the time and the excessive use of flashbacks on GH right now as well as choppy editing is beyond ridiculous. He had talknig dogs revealing paternity secrets to talking babies. OLTL got canceled under them. And then there was awful David Vickers and Robert Ford.

[DaytimeFan]

Why is this comment in this thread? Frank Valentini and Ron Carlivati at OLTL and/or GH have nothing to do with JFP joining Y&R. Keep it relevant.

[DaytimeFan]

I just love Jeanne, she basically said she thought MAB was crap, couldn't balance her life at MOCA and Y&R and said MAB's best friend was money. Brilliant.
