Members Mathewson Posted December 19, 2013 Members Share Posted December 19, 2013 That's the other part of it. Ford was so repellant and too dumb to live. And he was played by one of the worst actors ever on OLTL. That was also about the time I stopped caring about Jess. I haven't liked her since 2009. Robin Strasser really disliked her! She apparently went off on CH on her hotline a while back. I've heard mixed things about Crystal. I didn't like her on GL. I actually liked her more on OLTL (not her character Stacy though). I didn't like Farah on DAYS or OLTL but did this really happen? It sounds more like a story that a soap fan made up. I've heard many bad things about FF as a person but she usually seemed appreciative of her fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted December 19, 2013 Members Share Posted December 19, 2013 Of course I wasn't there, but the fan posted about it, and she was a FF fan. She said FF tore the pages out one by one as she mocked the fans who made it. It was during the Rex/Mimi (Rex was his name, right) pairing. On the cover of the scrapbook said "we love you Rex and Mimi", something to that affect. Farrah called whomever wrote it stupid for not realizing she was different from the character, and it should have said "Farrah and whomever"... She was very specific. I don't find it shocking at all because FF is one nasty piece of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 I didn't personally hate the gay marriage stuff--though it was silly, but mostly entertaining. I just think if ABC or whoever actually was blaming dropping ratings on Kish and people not wanting gays on their soaps, it was more the fact that there were two big (granted, somewhat intertwined) stories on at the same time and Kish was probably not the one some objected to. If that many people really did. But I agree, dropping all of that, and the stories they jumped into to replace them (which granted, could and perhaps were in place already though we know they were gonna do a custody battle that had to be dropped) really was the point where RC/FV's OLTL really bottomed out and never fully recovered.

Members wingwalker Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 I think that Big Gay Wedding helped doom Kish as well. The wierd thing is, Kish really weren't all that involved in it. Aside from a few scenes and Kyle deciding not to mary Nick, Kyle and Fish's story was mostly sepreate from Dorian's. Only real connection was Nick who Kyle was dating at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted December 20, 2013 Author Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 It was sad. I also think Amanda Setton quitting did not help since there was gonna be a 3 way fight for Sierra Rose (Kish/Kim/Gigi) & Oliver's dad was gonna side with Kim that was rumored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 Absolutely, but (and I don't think you're disagreeing) I am sure if anyone DID have an issue with it, they would associate the show with being "too gay" having those stories on top of each other--and I also think some people who don't really have much of an issue with a gay storyline maybe did have an issue with gay marriage (which was even a bigger deal just a few years back.) So the timing was kinda a mess... Did Dorian ever have to divorce female maybe a ghost Mel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 Right, though they could have maybe written around that with her gone. It just showed such bad faith in its audience--something, even if it was a network decision (and it most likely was) that showed bad faith in their fans, something Ron nor Frank ever addressed. Maybe it didn't make ratings soar--but OLTL got a lot of positive gay press (and a bit elsewhere) for the Kish stuff, especially the sex scene. And then to have no exit, and the producer just kinda give a vague shrug statement (and then all those rumours about unprofessional behaviour of the guys, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members John Posted December 20, 2013 Author Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 The decision to axe Kish was FV. RC was said to be so pissed and then he wanted Kish back to finish the last six months of ABC and be part of the Stacy/Kim story and FV said no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 Frank probably thought it would create too much audience drama--I don't doubt he had some exec pressure. Not to lay him completely off the hook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
