Lawford as CHarlie was THE WORST. But that was long past Erica.

Possibly both lol. Though Petey's actor is openly gay.

I didn't know Daniel was gay either. Learn something new every day.

OMG, he was terrible. I can't believe they saddled Cecily with him and gave them the most boring story of all time. Ugh.

The other two Charlies were great though and definitely not boring.

TV evangelist Jerry Falwell got Dan Lauria fired from One Life To Live. Falwell didn't like Lauria's pimp character and complained to ABC. Gus was soon written out.

Not that I even knew that Jack Arnold was on OLTL, but seriously?!?!?!

Says who?! I heard it was about Sterling cause he was black. And wasn't Daniel Kennedy not even started on the show when Ambyr was on? That was when Brianne was playing Colby.

Did that Ambyr rumor come from Nellie Olsen? If so then I would have to automatically disbelieve it unless I heard it elsewhere.

She was fired very suddenly, and it was gossiped about everywhere--but that was before Nellie really started to get his bad rep, so it could have stemmed from him.

The rumor was that NL and MB both pushed for SOnny and Emily to be paired together.

See, I heard it was the idea of MB's wife, Paula. She saw a scene between them once and suggested the couple best known as "Soily" would be good together.

I think this is when they tried to get Sonny a bipolar disorder story too, based on MB's own RL illness.

From TWoP, about Robert Kelker Kelly:

* Robert Kelker-Kelly, as BK pointed out, had a rotten history with his leading ladies. Several accused him of being too aggressive during sex scenes, such as use of tongue and roaming hands. Apparently, one scene with CC got rough, and she complained to the show's producers. She was told to deal with it because that's "just Robert," and she threatened to file a sexual harassment suit, which probably would have ended her career. Around this time, Sabatino was abruptly fired and, moments later, CC was told she was being put on the back burner, which she responded to by saying she wouldn't renew her about-to-expire contract. (Pure speculation: I think Sabatino kicked Kelker-Kelly's ass and got canned for it.) Less than two years later, Lisa Rinna and Kristian Alfonso set aside their mutual dislike for each other and told producers they would both walk if Kelker-Kelly wasn't fired for his behavior. He was, and Peter Reckell returned. Some claim Kelker-Kelly was dragged from the DOOL set kicking and screaming.

He also had an affair with his DAYS co-star when she was underage but when she turned of age they got married and they've been married ever since

In the early 2000s, two of the young actors who were playing brothers supposedly began a hot and heavy affair. Word has it that a make-up or wardrobe lady stumbled upon them having a sexual encounter. Eventually, they both left the show...one joined another show and the other became a born again Christian.

Colton Scott and Jacob Young. Everyone knows it. LOL.

Supposedly Kate Collins and James Kiberd hated each other with the heat of a thousand suns, although they had great chemistry on screen. She finally couldn't take anymore and asked to be released from her contract in 1992. Also I heard that her return a couple of years ago was contingent on Kiberd NOT being asked back too.

They have openly admitted to this, but I was sure they patched things up. I don't buy the second part.

Stephen Martines is a born again Christian?

ATWT: Kim Onasch was apparently a total terror to work with, was rude to co-stars and crew members and had a huge meltdown when she was the only one of the show's younger actresses not nominated for a Daytime Emmy.

Jacob Young is gay? Didn't know that.

Why wouuld Gloria Monty want her actors on coke? Wtf?

And wasn't MEK married to Catherine Hickland for decades?

I think due to her weight issues--it can help keep people thin (though surely it would have made more sense to hook her on speed--silly Monty)

Yeah the Hickland rumour was apparently that it was a mutually beneficial beard situation they worked out--they're still friends.

The Colleen Zenk rumors of issues with co-stars seemed to stretch on for a number of years in the 80s. Another was that she and Jacqueline Schultz (Dee) had such an unpleasant relationship that Ariana Munker (Melinda) left the show to get away from the conflict.

Everyone's already heard the Linda Gottlieb or JFP stories a million times so no point in going there again.

Supposedly Conboy and Bill Bell had a big power struggle over Y&R in the early 80s that ended badly.
