Muhney Drama YR

Besides, IIRC (and I do), we were given a a very detailed insider tip about MM and HK.  In fact, we were told it happened twice and the guy who played Fin was a witness to the 2nd assault.  

 

MM is getting desperate and frustrated because he's been out of work for a minute and his wacko stans haven't been able to bully anyone into giving him a job.

Count me in as one who found Justin Hartley to be, just better, in general than Michael Muhney.  Maybe the horribly obnoxious writing for the character when Muhney was in the role had much to do with my perceptions but I honestly don't understand what the fuss about Muhney is about. Leaving aside, all the muck from the person off-screen/BTS sh*t.

Muhney is not without talent as an actor, but as you say: Hartley was significantly better in the role. I thought Chris Engen was too. Even Grossman is okay, and looks like he could be Victor's son.

 

Muhney is forgotten...but just not gone, LOL.

+1. Every single actor whose played Adam has been better than Muhney, one way or another. It is bizarre to me that he kicks this hornet's nest.

 

He's 45 - he was let go from Y&R when he was 38. It isn't as if a Hollywood career gets easier as actors age.

 

And he's now been out of the role longer than he was in it. To me, that is the clearest indicator that it's time to move on.

We'll never know the truth, but it's telling that HHK, who was quite limited in range back then, suddenly got a recurring role on a prime time CBS show (that turned into regular), but also received an open door to bounce between LIP and Y&R at her pleasure. 

 

To be fair, HHK certainly has developed into a far better actor and done the work, so it's not like she hasn't earned it. 

 

That arrangement can't be coincidental. At the same time, branding MM with certain adjectives and descriptors is absolutely wrong. So-called inside information should be considered false. If the alleged incident(s) happened, it would've come out through legitimate news sources, especially after MeToo. He's admitted he was very difficult to work with and since several other actors said the same thing, that's probably the best way to describe him. 

 

I think Y&R is committed to this Adam 'de-aging,' so he wouldn't even be considered if the role becomes available again. And since Sharon Case doesn't age, it's not an issue. LOL

We still don't know the identity of the prime time star who Les Moonves harassed and shoved his tongue down her throat and it's been damn near 40 years since it happened. CBS is quite effective at keeping abominable and unsavory acts hidden away.

 

Christian LeBlanc hasn't really been doing much in the role in ages but stays on, probably because he's (one of) the least problematic persons on that show.  It's no secret that CBS tends to favor white guys, so in some instances, the mitigating factor--the only way to get booted (if you're a white guy) may be due to egregious behavior.

Come on.  Something happened.  This is a show that let Bergman and Braeden continue after they had an actual fist fight in the building.  Backstage turmoil and fighting amongst the cast has at times been rampant there.  I can think of only two instances of a major star being fired on this show publicly for an “attitude” problem-
 

Muhney and Brenda Dickson, and according to her there were many extenuating circumstances.

 

I seem to recall cast members sending HK support on social media when the story started to make its way around the Internet.  And Braeden says he did not get him fired.

 

Whatever his issues are, they are keeping him from other soaps, Hallmark movies, guest spot gigs, etc.  These people must know something, because there are times when I have watched a Hallmark movie filled with nothing but washed up soap stars and they are not offering him parts.

He is a piece of work. First, I never cared for the character Adam and don’t like HHK as an actress either, but CBS is not required to confirm or deny the allegations. Any contract worker can be fired for any reason, so his power play is laughable if not disingenuous. It was, however, wrong for someone to leak to TMZ about the possible HHK allegations. I believe this happened because CBS received a lot of anger from his cult like fans on social media. Do I believe it is entirely false? Probably not.

Both Eileen Davidson and MTS Tweeted something along the lines of what he had done was unforgivable and Tweeted support for HHK.

 

Neither of them had to do that and do it publicly. Muhney did something very wrong for that to happen, I don’t care what anyone says.

With #metoo on her side Hunter King should put up or shut up.  And I’m not a fan of his but she needs to grow a pair of ovaries.  The rest of the cast needs to say the truth as well.  Otherwise they’re all liars.  

He’s gay and probably sleeping with someone

    • The eternal dream...him begging to get with her included. 
    • On the other hand, I still find episodes of TV with people smoking in front of babies shocks me into nervous giggles.
    • Word of advice... you have to view the show without the 2025 lenses.. which means you need to 86 the misandry.
    • i love reading other posters alternate takes and scenarios. Yours would have really upped the tension.
    • Amanda is not my cup of tea. That's all I'm gonna say. She's repetitive and childish. She acts like a brat with her parents and has this constant "I'm not satisfied or happy" look on her face. The actress is okay in my opinion. I'm not impressed by anything I've seen her do so far. But she's okay.  BUT Amanda's repetitive scenes with Sam are the ones that I want to fast-forward the most. They just have 2  topics they like to talk about... and it's always "You are infringing on my right to be a powerful career woman! I need to be outside dating men for a job, so I can WORK and prove I'M NOT A RICH GIRL ONLY!" and he's like "You and your family are buying me a career and I don't want it! I WANT TO BE ABLE TO STRUGGLE and be poor and you guys ARE denying me the opportunity by giving it all on a silver platter" This is their main storyline for me... and it's just annoying when it's the same every single episode. It's a fake struggle that I don't buy. These people are so spoiled by this point and have everything... don't make me suffer listening to them bicker how amazing their life is, so they are unhappy about that. Just a personal view. I'm not saying THIS IS the situation. My view is also restricted, since I'm only 4-5 months into the episodes. 
    • It's shocking to see Steffy look down on anyone. She was the new generation HO for years. I mean... she was nasty and using sex to seduce married-engaged-in-relationship-men all the time. She was embracing it fully. Bradley was accenting on the fact that Taylor's daughter had become Brooke 2. I remember how disgusting it was when she was using Hope's virginity to her advantage and offering to f-ck the guys that wanted Hope. It was ABSURDLY nasty.  Then couple of years ago Bradley decided we should forget about it and made Steffy BECOME her grandmother. IN AN INSTANT. There was no build up to it. Which aged the f-ck out the character and made her unbearable. Because it's one thing to see an actual matriarch, older woman doing these things, being a moral judge... but it's complete joke to see the ex-ho acting like this. Ex-ho that is still incredibly young and has no right acting like she is better that anyone or... a moral JUDGE. Steffy and Hope's personalities got swapped!!! That's the irony of it. So any time these gang-style of fans come attacking Hope... for acting like a "slut"... I pinch myself - their HEROINE Steffy was doing this HARCORE. Are these people oblivious or just pretending not to remember. How can you stan a moral judge... that attacks "sluts" and also stan the same type of behavior you are attacking... years ago. How does this happen. But I repeat myself at this point.  I agree with everything you said 100000 percent. It's the truth. At least in my eyes. 
    • The Amanda pregnancy was a blunder. Amanda and Sam were AW's best bet for a starcrossed supercouple. Young love destined to be turn apart by outside forces and misunderstandings . Battling for years to finally get together. Instead AW had them married and pregnant within a year.  
    • It is his fatal flaw.  He's smart, cute, and loyal.  But, a total chauvinist pig.  We're looking through a 2025 lens, but April's from a wealthy family, (that she recently met), she should be allowed to contribute to her own home. Especially if Draper is going to work for the Crime Commission, rather than joining Mike's private law firm (did I get that part correct?) How about smoking while the baby is in the room?  It all looks nuts by current standards. Raven was married to Geraldine's son Kevin, but had an affair with Logan (whom Geraldine also considered like a son). Raven got pregnant by Logan, then Kevin died (long story short).  The part you need to know is that Raven was bored being a mother to Jamey (check out my member name).  So, she starts going out to Elliott's club and leaving Jamey with April.  Logan is not happy that Raven keeps leaving their baby all around town.  And thus, Geraldine is not pleased with Raven either. Draper and Logan are frequently rivals in the courtroom.  FYI --- Draper is also Raven's step-brother (her mother married his father). Raven's real name is Charlotte. But, one day [she] was sitting on the lawn and saw this beautiful black bird with shiny wings fly by. [She] wanted to be that bird. So beautiful. So free. With beautiful black wings…"    @chrisml you'll hear that story soon, and I envy you getting to see it the first time.
    • There is a time... till the old storyline is cleaning up... where it's still kinda annoying. For me it was. That's a personal opinion. But in 10-20 episodes more... you'll find yourself enthralled. It's not even begun. I'm so glad to hear your reviews! And excited of what's to come for you!
