Doesn't the story go that they did a focus group that declared Mo boring? And that's why they decided to kill her off?
Which is the dumbest thing, ever. I'd bet good money that almost no one in the focus group watched soaps. I was put in a focus group once. I was standing outside a shoe store, just looking in the window. Someone approached me asked me if I wanted to make $40 by being in a focus group. I said sure!
Not surprisingly, it was about shoes. I hate shoes. I hate shopping for shoes. I have fallen arches. I'm a klutz who automatically falls down in heels.
I didn't tell them this. It was $40 for less than an hour of my time. My opinion on anything they asked me was basically useless.
Showing people soap opera scenes out of context is also basically useless. You can't properly assess Maureen's importance to the show that way.
Really a low point for GL.
