I was on one message board that I will not name that has a GH board that's entirely too concerned about what goes on at Y&R and I remember GF fans getting mad when I'd talk about how awful she was on Y&R and how I hoped she would get fired and just go back to playing Laura. They'd tell me how I didn't know what I was talking about and how great GF is( though they weren't regular Y&R watchers and only saw her on there twice)

Every time Maria brings a star from another show those star's fans always act pissed when Y&R fans/ptb don't fawn over them like they do.

Khan, MANNY 4EVA!!!

That's not possible I mean Genie Francis easily should have had at least amillion viewers in her corner since half of the GH fanbase tuned in to watch her on Y&R right?

Now, if you want to talk about rabid fan bases who get under my skin to this day, then let's talk about the GusHers (again, from GL). Sure, the Mannyacs often acted like the psycho nanny/neighbor/co-worker in a Lifetime original movie; but some of those GusHers...! I actually had to go to God on those arrogant, passive-aggressive bitches. No lie.

I really wanna hear more about this

Genie on hearing the news that she was let-go from Y&R from Jill Farren Phelps: “I went up to talk to Jill in her office and she was actually very kind. Actually, I think she was mortified. I don’t think she wanted to be put in that position to tell me that. Nobody does. We both said were sorry that we wouldn’t have the chance to work together. There was no blood drawn. (Laughs) T here are no bad feelings. Look, she’ a very accomplished, powerful producer and she couldn’t get there by being petty and bitchy. Her back is to the wall. She had to cut people out because she had to balance her budget, and she had to be true to what is Y&R, and so it’s a hard position to be in. We are friends. She and I go way back to her early 20′s and my teens. So this little bump in the road is not going to undo our friendship.”

I didn't think they were friends

Yeah, clearly they were never friends. ha

Sounds like she's fishing for another Sony job with the we go way back comments.

So, was Debbi let go too? I believe it said so on the cover of SOD which I saw in the checkout aisle (so cliche! ), but I was too embarrassed didn't have time to read it. And you know how SOD is with their misleading headlines.

I don't think she and JFP are really friends but I think some of their reported conflict was never accurate. For years there was a story about a producer who called Genie fat, and some said that was JFP, which was revealed to be false.

Wasn't it Wendy Riche who called Genie fat a couple of years before JFP became EP?

I think it was someone else, not the EP, but I can't remember. It was mentioned here a few times.

I heard one story wher e Wendy Riche held up a coat and told Genie she had to get down to that size.

I heard one story where JFP gathered the rest of the cast for a game of "Pin the Tail on the Fat-Ass."

I am evil for hoping this is true.

And i am OK with that.

Oh, come on. As if JFP would be that cruel.

Gloria Monty, maybe; but JFP?
