Not sure what you are getting at

The stans have already proven that facts don't matter. As for me, I don't need to forgive him. I was onboard when MM came to YR, but when Sham happened, I hated it. That's fine, but what pissed me off was MM's attitude towards Sharon fans and those who didn't like the pairing. It never got better. He's been a jerk from day one.

I told someone about MM calling people c**ts and she said she didn't care and that Eric Braeden said and done worse

I don't watch Y&R but always found MM interesting and willing to say some pretty on point things. A few years back there was a video of him at some fan event where he is saying Y&R fans don't turn on their show to watch GH. He was right, and the show was importing a bunch of GH stars at the time. He said another time the show needed to be trimmed, and that was no different than what gets said by the fans all the time on the board. His thoughts on the daytime emmys were good too I felt. How many times can the emmys nominate the same 8 geriatrics and at this point does anyone really think Tony Geary turns in the best work year in and year out?

Those are pretty pertinent points, and I cannot say I disagree with any of them. I thought MM was ok as Adam (depending on the material) even though I really liked Chris Engen and his Little Boy Lost side. I will even say that I am impressed by MM's exit interview. He took most of the blame of his dismissal on himself. We can say that he was lying but I think he has been dealt a huge blow. I also believe him when he talks about loving the medium.

With that said, he is flawed, and his flaws got him fired. Calling your castmates C U Next Tuesdays (and meanIing it) is not acceptable in any work environment!. MM went pretty far a number of times on Twitter and Sony/CBS (not JFP who I think wanted him to stay) were just looking for a good moment to can him.

Still, the hysteria has got to stop. The show can and will go on. There are actors on the show who would leave a hole in the canvas if they left. MTS, for a start.

Eric Braeden ‏@EBraeden42s

.@Doquinn76 it's an outrage to suggest I had a hand in firing MM!!!! Nor should JFP TAKE THE BLAME 4 THIS! I HAVE ALWAYS SUPPORTED ACTORS

Notice how the hysteria has died down now that the wackos know a penis was behind the termination? Wow! Sad part is that this is mostly women behaving this way.

I really disagree with the notion that retweeting what someone wrote is the same as saying it yourself. I'm also not saying it's wise. But it's not like MM went into work and called his cast-mates the "C" word. He's not the one that wrote that and, yes, I think that matters, when it's all over the net that he is the one that said it, when that is not the case.

I don't use Twitter, but it is clear that you if you retweet without disavowing with what someone says, then you are agreeing with the person said. Plus, that tweet is consistent with his overall public attitude towards his castmates.

Retweeting something generally means you agree with it

In any case, I highly doubt that MM got fired over that most recent retweet. It has got to be a whole bigger than that.

It is. Don't favorite or retweet it if you don't agree. If you do, it's like clicking "reply" and writing "I agree."

I really don't think that's why. People come pretty hard after Cartini and they are guys. Plenty of male writers and producers have been ripped to shreds by fans, whether or not they really had it coming. I also think Jill can take the heat and does not give one single f*ck.

Mostly think the shock is wearing off, especially after we've had many people including MM say this isn't about JFP.

I'd say the canvas is in taters, so I'm not sure it matters who leaves at this point. I don't feel like that because of MM. He's just one more. I really feel disconnected to Y&R because of all of the comings and goings recently, even if I think some of the additions are good. I hope it stabilizes soon.

Agreeing is not the same thing as saying it yourself. This isn't even a MM issue to me. I just wouldn't want any comment attributed directly to me because I retweeted it. It simply is not the same thing.

Huff article:

That interview was a surprise.

Muhney actually came

He actually came across as an adult and actor for once. I would have a lot more respect for him if he had realised sooner that sometimes less is more.

3-6 months no Adam. Sounds good. I wouldn't be surprised if the character joins Phyllis on a prolonged sidelines status.

The interview is very good damage control. But that's all it is. He's over and he knows it.

His PR person did a good job prepping him, for sure. Excellent work.
