Members P.J. Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 Yeah...whatever. There's no way Maria would have gotten that job if her last name hadn't rhymed with hell. Look up the meaning of the words nepotism and dilettante, hon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 Maria needs to hold a mirror to her face b/c she is one deluded clown. Everything she claims in wrong with Y&R now is what was wrong with her version of Y&R. Her show was flat. Her interpretation of the characters were REALLY unrecognizable and to think that she put out stellar material just shows how stupid she is. Any hack that thinks multiple doppelgängers (i.e. Phyllis/Sheila, John/Allistar, & William/Jeffery), numerous retcons, and a damn chipmunk story is not "golden" age material. Maria needs to stick her head and hands and in blinder and get someone to press the power button b/c the witch is worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 I thought the same thing and for a hot minute I was like "I don't remember that scene in Precious".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 Is she talking about Paul's story where she overaged his son and made him a cartoon villain or the one where he jumped under Phyllis's bus? And lets not even bring up last years gala That bitch can have a seat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 Josh was great on OLTL.. even the short time he was a sole HW... well I always say a HW great on one soap, is probably horrible on another Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 I just noticed that she actually said "my vision." Remember when she said that back in 2009 when the soap press was kissing her pashmina posterior 24/7? I could never stand the stench she brought to Y&R. I think those articles disappeared but they tell you just how delusional she was and how she was enabled by people who should have known better.

Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thank you. She ruined Ricky, who could've been a potential long time bad boy in Y&R. She of course made him her psycho of the month. I still wish Maria's stupid a** around that time would've: 1) Kept Paul mad at Nikki after she left him at the altar for Victor, thus making him have a growing disdain for all things Newman 2) Brought Ricky to town and have him fall for Abby while pissing Paul off 3) Built a strong sibling bond with Heather & Ricky b/c they were both neglected by Paul 4) Played Paul v. Victor with Ricky & Abby in the middle. Killing Ricky off was just stupid and IMO made Paul even more worthless. Then to go on and have Paul not want to pursue Phyllis running him and Cricket down, an event that played a pivotal role in their marriage, is unforgivable. Oh and while I am on this rant, this trick wants to talk about giving up golden material but she character assassinated two of Y&R's greatest heroines: Sharon & Ashley. Ashley became nothing but a "talk-to" and a shrew; meanwhile, Sharon became the town slut. And while IDC for Nikki (Lizzy Borden-esque granny) Newman, she demolished her too by having her kill Diane. Maria just needs to open her coffin in lie in it b/c the b*tch is dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 I don't know what was worse for Nikki; killing Diane and slutting it up in a roach motel with Deacon. The obnoxious writing for Abby damn near ruined the character and reflected on Ashley as well. There are no words to describe how badly Sharon was damaged.

Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 I hate how Maria wrote Abby too. I ALWAYS wanted Abby to give Nikki grief like Victoria gave Ashley all those years--to give Nikki a dose of her own medicine. Maria started off doing this but quickly made Abby a Team Nikki card carrying member . That whole killing Diane mystery was gruesome and slap in the face to Maura West & Barbara Bloom, who wanted Maura on Y&R. I still don't believe that this woman worked under the Bill Bell. I say that about his son too but he shows his moments on B&B where you can tell. Maria, I saw no Bell-esque moments with her at helm. If she worked under Bill Bell, clearly she wasn't taking notes. She was too busy focused on MOCA and being a socialite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 Nothing Phelps and Griffith have done so far has been offensive or unwatchable. Sure it can be boring and lacking good rhythm but some of it holds my interest and as mediocre as they can be it says a lot that we have Chelsea, Avery, and Leslie(not mediocre!) as leading heroines as opposed to Phyllis, Chloe, Daisy and the other ilk. All of it UNFORGIVABLE and that is only the tip of the iceberg!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BrookenAdamAMCSupercouple Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 Oh I believe you. Like I say I've never heard of this person until today. But I have had TOO much experience with the Farrett. So I just like anyone bashing JFP to the press. She, like Craptini, gets too much AK from them when they all should be run out of daytime on a rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted May 30, 2013 Members Share Posted May 30, 2013 I forgot about Patty and the stuffed kitty. That is another character that was trashed by MAB. Patty hadn't been seen since the mid 80s, but it would have given Paul some family.. plus given Jack/Diane a character to play against. Except they turned her into a cartoon psycho instead of the wounded, misguided girl that she was in the 1980s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
