I've always wondered why he was fired from Veronica Mars as well. Say what you will about the actor, but his character on VM was a great foil for the protagonists, and it was just weird that they axed Muhney without any reason being given to the public.

Michael Muhney is an [!@#$%^&*] and a misogynistic predator, but how exactly does one exonerate themselves of those particular charges?

Muhney was my favorite Adam. While I didn’t believe the HK rumors (she never accused him) it says something that his costars did not speak up on his behalf. A few of them said that the right decision had been made.

Muhney left the show early 2014; since the we’ve had a far more seasoned superior actor take over as well a far more competent and balanced newbie. He’s had plenty of time to make amends/come to terms with it and move on in his career or start his own websoap. 

.


From what I remember reading way back in ‘07 Muhney was exactly like sleazy Sheriff Don Lamb in real life on the set, maybe that’s why he played the role so well?

 

That reminds me whatever happened to Nelson Branco & Daniel Coleridge?

I find it surprising he would choose to bring this up again indeed but worth pointing out that in this very thread people are taking that one rumor as a given fact and call him a predator despite the fact there was never any accusation publicly made or even hinted at, that it was specifically denied by those who were supposed to be involved and that there is extensive interviews of other actors (not just EB but Jerry Douglas as well) who are quite harsh on him but explain his firing by his generally arrogant assholery on-set, which can't be accused to be favorable spin.
So considering he has done zero since he was fired, can't entirely blame him for being a bit bitter he can't shake that rumor off.

Could it just be that he was fired because of his [!@#$%^&*] behavior? He has said repeatedly it was not because of HK and while she has never refuted the rumor, which is also suspect, she never said it was true either. Why she chooses to remain silent knowing it's believed that he groped her is a mystery. I think none of  the actors really stood up for him because he was generally unliked on set. Maybe the guy is just frustrated that people keep accusing him of it years later when he knows he's innocent of this particular rumor. It has to be tough trying to find work when people keep throwing it in his face it's the reason he hasn't been able to find work.

Almost the entire Y&R cast, to a performer, tacitly supported Muhney's firing with public comments about either his dismissal or in support of Hunter King. Muhney has barely worked since. Based on that, you don't need a building schematic or a public accusation from a woman who would've been a very young victim to connect the dots and believe the allegations were true.

 

I do wonder if DC, etc. ever apologized for their 'just squash the beef and bring back Muhney!' stuff they were still pushing even a few years ago. Pepperidge Farm remembers.

    • Oohh...now I'm not sure. Long did come back in '87, didn't she. She broke up Ross and Vanessa almost from her first minute back. Van and Ross are at the Country Club when Josh dumps Reva. And Reva dramatically drapes herself on the CC stairs. 
    • Glad you enjoyed watching. Yes, Michael seems like fun. I am always interested in more of these niche talk show appearances.
    • Thanks for the tag @DRW50
    • Upon reflection, I think you're right, their chilliness toward each other was more recent. She said women on the show in 1984 were not supportive and she still stays away from them. She seems friendly with Susan Hayes so Deidre is the only woman still around from those days, though I guess Kristian Alfonso and Leann Hunley could also qualify. And it might be someone long gone but who is still present in Suzanne's social circles. 
    • I don't know.  The animosity seems to be more recent than the mid 80s.  When Maggie was a victim of the Salem Stalker i remember reading an interview with Suzanne where she said they aired the episode(s) surrounding Maggie death in a theatre and made a big deal about it.  Suzanne was very upset about being fired and Dee comforted her and said that they were making such a big deal about it because it was Suzanne/Maggie.  I cannot find the article but I will keep trying. That said Suzanne's comments on Soapy about how some of the female cast members treated her during her illness was disappointing to hear to say the least.  
    • Anyway... Kristen should have a prison lesbian story arc. And then come out and become obsessed with Marlena so we can move her on from the Brady nonsense. Is that secret room still in the DiMera mansion? 
    • Oh, wow... where can I find this interview? 
    • I'm really liking Izaiah and Eva so far. And why can't I help but feel that something might happen to make Jessica stay in Fairmont Crest permanently? 
    • So Pam didn't create her? I thought she had the whole of 87-88. I'll look around, thanks for the point in the right direction.

      date: Tuesday, November 18, 2025 | Jamey Giddens, Danielle Paige | Steven Williford Samantha, accept the fact you were in the wrong and do not deserve your digital devices. Do not like it? Go upstairs. Read a book. Do some knitting. Bradley and Martin's "we get it" to Tyrell was hilarious and absolutely a parent's thing to do. Loving a bit of history of both the Duprees (via Eva) and the Hawthrones (via Izaiah). So cute. Poor June. I am sure she did not purposefully mean to mess up; we have all been there working in customer service. Shake it off and keep on keeping on! Not twice a week for Vernon's cobbler order... Sharon must be using that as payment for their meetings. I appreciate that Ted still cares about the Duprees despite the end of his marriage to Nicole. Not Dana using Peaches' crisis as a way of taking Ted's attention away from a co-worker. Girl, do not be so obvious. Bradley is a man after my own heart with a simply divine chocolate milkshake. That is the way to go. Dana really needs to dial it back. Money will not buy her everything she wants and she will realise it soon enough. And I doubt Shanice is scared off by her idle threats, either. "With all due respect, Ms Thomas, this isn't a shopping mall." Oh, Dr Wilkes just owned Dana's arrogant ass. I love it. Wigs and personas? Okay now, Shanice ate with that read. I like that June assured Bradley that she will not replace him or Martin in the twins' lives. And that blood does not make a parent. Words never rang more true. Jessica reading Samantha was amazing. Dana would want to involve Ted. Her obsession is crossing beyond dangerous boundaries. Not Dana catching Vernon leaving Sharon's room at the country club. That is not good. Not good at all! Notes: Ugh. Not another breakdown from writer2. This week was going so well. Thankfully, Paige is an outstanding scriptwriter (one of this soap's best), and her words today are excellent. The food at Orphey Gene's does look bomb, so I do not blame any of the characters for uptalking it. I would eat there daily if I could. And gain hundreds of pounds, too. David Lami Friebe (Izaiah) continues to make me sick watching him, but he is nice to listen to. I still really like having June as the central person hub at Orphey Gene's. That familiar face you see when you walk in and have scenes. Dana wanting a second opinion means we could have an incoming doctor, right...?
