Members rlj Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 You can think all you want but reports said CBS jumped at the chance to get MS, sought her out and fired s popular recast to get her, your fanfic aside, it is what it is Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 Except it's not fanfic that Stafford's contract negotiations with GH were not going well... It is fanfic however to suggest JM somehow was responsible for Stafford getting her old job back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vizion Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 Exactly. GH did not try very hard to keep her. It also isnt fanfic that her years on GH were unsuccessful by every measurement (awards, accolades, popularity, ratings, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeeeDee Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 It's surprising Y&R is willing to pay Giggly when they refused to pay Eileen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 Giggly is probably not making what she was before, with budgets down and having absolutely no leverage anymore. It’s probably more than what GH was offering though. Giggly probably would have taken almost anything when it was clear GH wasn’t going to budge on contract negotiations.

Members Vizion Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 DC claimed on their podcast that this was done becaue Y&R is desperate to improve their ratings and thought this would help. Ummm...lol. We are well beyond the time where one actor can effect ratings in some significant way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 What she may not be getting in $ from YR, can be made by an increase in eppy count. Sometimes, LUCKILY, you won't see NinUGH for 2 weeks at a time. She will more than likely get at least 3 eppies/week on YR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sivad40 Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 I can vouch for that. I know another soap opera forum would constantly bash GT as Phyllis on her acting tics and Phyllis being involved in multiple storylines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dio Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 Y&R doesn't care about Ashley, because they don't feel like she can drive story, meanwhile they Phil has been used nonstop and been forced into nearly every major SL on the canvas. It's such a dumb, missed op that Ashley and Lily weren't involved in the JT sl, instead of Phil and Sharon. They could have had Maddie's innocence campaign or whatever for the mom's release be successful, and she's out of prison and free to be Vic's friend or whatever. And then Cane kisses Vic, and the drama just evolves more naturally. Instead of the flop that we got. and with a younger Phil... why not have her sleep with Kyle, when she finds out Summer slept with Billy? Seriously, these stories write themselves when you use the right characters, instead of trying to force crap like a Nick/Phil retread.

Members dio Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 you don't like her. We get it. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vizion Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 I am indifferent to her but that was not the point. MS was always an incredibly polarizing person on and off the show. So saying well some people were mad that GT was getting so much airtime is silly because these are the same folks who literally hated and bashed MS to high heavens and who she fought with constantly. The notion that she will be universaly embraced or something is odd considering that wasnt even the case the first go round and this is a much worse scenario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 I'm going to say she knew. MS is an actress who has a long career in soaps. She knows when something is popping and when it ain't! When MS/Phyllis was bashed for being in every story, it was deserved. When GT/Phyllis was bashed for being shoved in every storyline, it was deserved. And it doesn't mean the folks who bashed GT/Phyllis wanted MS back on that set. They merely wanted more balance and to not be force fed GT/Phyllis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sivad40 Posted April 1, 2019 Members Share Posted April 1, 2019 I believe most people already knows that MS is polarizing but the notion that GT was universally accepted and beloved as Phyllis isn't true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
