Y&R: Amelia Heinle interview

There are times when I literally blank out on what she says, does, or whether or not she was actually in the scene. That is how unmemorable this washed-out thing is in her job.

I threw up in my mouth a little when MF said "Villy broke the mold for soap couples" Seriously...Hammy Billy Miller and limited AH haven't broken anything. GMAFB

With this interview, Heinle is now poised to go the way of Branson, Schmidt, Zima, Stafford, Muhney, and well Miller himself. Worse, she could have her own Christel Khalil casting call moment.

If AH cant commit there are excellent actresses who could do Victoria Newman well

Yep! That'd be fine with me!

I get she misses her friend. But this was unprofessional, and she should know better. It took until her pairing with Billy for people to give her even a slight chance as a recast.

How she has survived with zero spark in a dynamic role is amazing.

I zoned out once the bitch started praising Miller. Sigh. She gives such an awful interview. I rolled my eyes at her answers about Melody/Eric because it just seems fake to me. She seems very fake. And a piss-poor actress.

And YOU were a recast, on top of a MUCH better actress (which is somewhat funny considering Heinle replaced David's sister who was pretty much fired, right?).

Wait, what? I thought she left on her own. Was Heather Tom fired?

I don't believe she was fired. They couldn't come to terms during negotiations. I do recall they wanted to decrease her airtime severely and HT walked.

This was about the time CBS Daytime was having very public battles with actors. Kim Zimmer was one of them. Before her contract was up, they wanted to amend it unfavorably to Kim. She said when it's time for negotiations, they can discuss a cut, but she would not be amending her current contract. There were a few others, but I can't think of the names right now.

I still give her credit for standing up to the network during that time. She had a contract, and the network and P&G kept messing up the show, approving/forcing bad stories and to try to make her rewrite her contract when she had more than a year left on it was ridiculous.

I get people think she should care about the show, and that she was being selfish. I just don't agree. A corporation entered into an agreement with an individual, and should hold to their terms. All she has control over is her work ethic. The show controls the rest and should deal with their mistakes.

Oh I agree. These networks bring in cheap labor, make an inferior product and expect concessions from the people who bring their crap to life. The very people we tune in to see. Kim had my full support.

Amelia is so gorgeous, sweet and why do we talk about heather Tom she is at b and b. Amelia going into her 10th year at y and r. She's fabulous.

Amelia going into her 10th year at y and r.

She's kind of like KNOTS LANDING. She's been there for so long, b/c the network (or SONY) keeps forgetting to fire her.
