JFP denied it, but the thought at the time was that Alice Barrett (Frankie) was fired. It was down to her, Judi Evans (Paulina) or Anna Stuart (Donna). Focus groups preferred Donna going over Paulina, but fan backlash (as viewers could tell what was being set up for Donna), supposedly made her turn to Barrett instead.

It gives stans time to either jump off of a roof or calm down and keep it moving.

There is a good reason to have Adam off screen (hit and run), and I have to be honest and say that I can't wait to see who returns (Engen PLEASE). I'd rather it be 6 months. That's more realistic. The story when he returns???? Plenty for everyone!

It really doesn't though. The stans don't go away anymore. I've seen it happen on GH they stay on the message boards for months complaining about how they plan on giving up the show and then when the recast is hired they come out in full force again.

I'm just saying if my friend got fired for harassing a young female I don't think I'd be buddy buddy with them for awhile.

She may feel he's been punished enough by losing his job ....no reason to pile on. I don't think I'd abandon a long time friend for harassment if he's already been punished. I might be disappointed, and hope he has learned from the situation, and even distance myself over time if I don't think he was sorry. Rape would be a different story.

Why not? There are a lot of people (men and some women) who feel that women are at fault when they are sexually harassed or assaulted, especially when it is by someone that they know. They also believe that women should not complain about it publicly and should find a way to resolve the situation. SC very well could be one of them. She also might not believe it is true.

Doug's earlier tweets were anout Fans blaming JFP, not MM imo, he never stated he disliked or wanted MM of the show.

I am curious as to why JM jasnt tweeted anything, at one time he and MM called each other BFFs and Bros ;o

Technically we dont know why MM was fired. The "sexual" harassment (if true) couldve been him telling a stupid sexual joke or showing her an innapropriate pic, which can lead to someone being fired. I am not gonna fault KSJ, SC, or DD for showing love to their friend, because maybe the situation isnt as black and white as we think.

I think it depends on whether you are their coworker or their friend. If they are just your coworker, yeah you probably cut them off but if you are genuinely friends then maybe you do your best to stick by them the way you would in any other difficult situation like a divorce or a death in the family. Part of being someone's friend - a friend, mind you not acquaintance or coworker - is standing by them even when they have exercised poor judgment. I don't know anything about these people's relationships but I do know what it's like when a coworker and/or a friend gets fired rightly or wrongly. All one can do is what they think is best.

I'm getting increasing disturbed by the pile-on mentality. None of us really knows what has happened here and it's not like we'll ever get any facts. But thanks to Twitter and the boards this whole thing has turned into a Tyler Perry meets Ryan Murphy style clusterfuck.
