Steady paycheck, easy hours and they let her direct.

 

Exactly. No one in soaps is gonna walk off due to a lousy storyline. Or else 75% of every cast would be gone and they'd have zero income, save for a couple bucks from a friend's web soap.

We-ell, when Beverlee McKinsey left GL in the lurch with no real warning, just that she was starting her 8 weeks' vacation & not that she wasn't coming back, she had 2 reasons.

1. She was very unhappy about her story where she was forced to meddle in her son's romantic life with Mindy, and,
2. That they were overworking her in number of days per week and number of hours per day.

Lemme clarify - no one in soaps in the year 2019.

Oh, yeah, I don't guess it would ever happen again. When Beverlee did it, it was a rare occurence!

i don't think the "lousy storylines" are the issue with HT, but the lack thereof any whatsoever. LOL She literally has no storylines bad or otherwise and is just a moment-to-moment prop. The only thing I can think is that even tho she's borderline recurring/dayplayer, she's not paid like it. 😉

She aint dead yet?

Our only hope is for Amelia Heinle to leave Y&R.

Tisha Campbell-Martin is doing this?? I'd always wanted her and/or Tichina Arnold back on an actual good soap. Sigh.

 

Tisha's been on a soap before?

Beverlee McKinsey was also 30 years older than Heather Tom is at the time.
