I saw someone saying the show is going to lose half their ratings next week because of boycotts.

I wish someone would tell them that the whole boycott JFP thing has been tried before and failed miserably. And I say this as someone who "boycotted" her work out of principle for over a decade.


It's embarrassing seeing people essentially argue over which overrated airhog caused the most trending when Y&R told them to hit bricks.

I think about all the talented people who have been fired from this show and nobody cared.

And I can't take anymore of people saying they will cry for Bill Bell. If you want to cry for Bill, cry over his daughter-in-law making a fool of herself for three years.

The industry/soap fans not be respected has absolutely nothing to do with some folks being pleased about Muhney being fired. Please do not try to make this situation more important than it really is.

An actor got fired. We don't know what exactly caused his situation yet, but we will soon enough.

Frank Valentini has hired all sorts of people and/or dealt with big egos and kept them in line, often to my surprise. I think the bigger issue is what would inevitably result between Muhney and Carlivati. I can see them doing it, but I can't see it ending well.

Thank you for pointing out that actors are employed for doing their jobs, just like any other person. If a plumber, mechanic, accountant, sous chef went on to have public rants about their fellow employees, bosses and places of business and it got back to their employer, they would have a serious problem.

Just because these folks are actors and they have a "huge/focal" fanbase, doesn't mean that they can do or say whatever they want and not have to deal with the results.

Muhney is a talented performer, but he lost perspective about his "importance" to TPTB. Anybody can be fired. People have to remember that part, especially when he's not calling the shots.

What does GH have to do with MM? Are people speculating that he will be hired there?

Whoever is bringing up Bill Bell is ignorant. He fired Terry Lester without a second thought for righting point that nepotism was the reason that talentless Christine Bell was being down our throats. Lester was far more popular than MM is now and Bell did not give a flying f'ck. Bell fired loads of actors in his time and got on with it.,

If Michael Muhney could've gotten another primetime gig after VM fired him and before and after Y&R took him on I think he would have done it. I suspect his reputation precedes him. If he goes anywhere in a lasting capacity, IMO, it will be on daytime.

Muhney on GH as a snarky new Quartermaine family member. Miller on GH as Ava's OTHER half-brother who establishes his own town gossip rag a la Restless Style. Well, it COULD happen. I've never had any vested interest in Muhney or Miller, but I do find them both talented enough to contribute elsewhere.

Those both sound like horrible ideas to me. I'd rather see them use the players they have (A.J.), or past characters. There's a few existing characters you could slot those two into, but honestly I just don't think they'd work on the show.

    • Very sorry to hear of her passing. Aside from a few clips I've only ever "known" her through scripts and photos, but she along with the rest of the original cast helped make a show that changed daytime forever. We're still talking about one of her major stories on here to this very day.
    • That's a lovely photo. RIP.

    • I'll miss him too (still can't believe those were actual publicity photos - Joe Breen must have had a coronary), but he won't be gone forever.  Rauch did well at making people feel they were important (as long as they were willing to play along). That's probably why Erika Slezak loved him (he also gave her better story than he gave Zimmer). I think Kim has a certain amount of self-awareness but also needed to feel like she was the big star and desperately needed by the show. Wheeler was clearly incapable of expressing that. 
    • Nicole has 2 assistants but no one else gets any staff (that we see). Are Dani and Hayley fixing meals and clearing blocked drains? I think they need to establish that they have some assistance. Vernon and Anita need to have a visible housekeeper. Give the Duprees some help!
    • . Her husband posted the following message: "The love of my life. The brightness in my life which is now so dimmer. In April I lost you and I miss you so much and I hope you are at peace. Lost Pam due to things beyond what was going on in her life. The original Peggy Brooks on The Young and the Restless and many more shows and commercials and then the creator of Chocolate Fortunes. So beautiful and a hell of a sense of humor. Great laugh, Great smile and Great compassion. You are my sidekick forever. Will miss you and all your sharp barbs. The angels are with you my beautiful angel. Fly safe and be happy. Much love and kisses forever."

    • I grew up in a neighborhood behind the gates and it really wasn't uncommon to have your house unlocked. In my neighborhood there was an armed gate before you enter the neighborhood and you have security patrolling 24/7. One thing that was common when I was in high school were for the kids whose parents were real estate agents to use their houses to throw house parties. It was easy because they were always unlocked.

    • I posted this a few weeks ago but it's worth popping up again as Grant does get asked about return rumors, that Paul Rauch had tried to get the show revived for years but P&G just would not sell it.

    • If those two crazy (and I do mean crazy!) kids can't make it, where's the hope for the rest of us?!
