Seriously, why do some folks hate LW so f'ing much?  I mean, she's not exactly one of my faves, but I swear - reading this stuff in regards to her and KM's dismissal - there are peeps just waiting for the opportunity to shiv her in public.

It's like some of us are wont to say. Oh, gee, they're bashing LW again. What day is it? Oh, I see, it's because it's a day that ends in a Y. 

The people that are doing this are the same trolls that hate everyone, the same ones that can't differentiate between soap characters and actors... the same ones that attack actors when someone else is fired or leaves, the same ones that blame actors for storylines they don't like... You can recognize them by the lack of substance or evidence to anything they claim. They are best at innuendoes and insinuations. Sadly, every community has at least 1 of these toxic people. But the majority have common sense, Thank God!

The show released that pic approximately January 4, 2024 with the GH primetime special featuring the announcement of Burton's return.

The pic says so much. 

Kelly M. seemed to be doing well in recent months with the Sam/Dante blended family.

The impending recasting of Lulu, with Lulu awakening from her coma, would put Dante back in storyline with Lulu.

Theoretically, Dante and Lulu *could* coparent without reuniting romantically, and theoretically Sam/Dante *could* remain a couple...
but instead they chose to kill off Sam?

I know nothing BTS.

I can only *SPECULATE* that GH wanted to put Sam back with Burton's Jason -- and Kelly was unenthused?

Just speculating.

I believe that it was known that she was unenthused, but not known if they wanted to put them together again, or not. So, halvsies. I'd say that is excellent spec. 

GH is toxic but FV lets it be so. He as done folks dirty since bein EP at OLTL & letting certain actors have pull over story

Anyone who speaks up about it I appauld

Is #firefrank desrving all he gets -- absolutely.

Has he needed to be let go since 2014? --definitely.

For letting go of Sleepwalking for 13 years KeMo?

Did he let his friends overstay their welcomes? For way too long.

And though I as never a fan of Billy Miller's Jake Duh, I'm sorry that his demons led to his passing.  Lining up with a bunch of crazed "X" ers trying to keep an actress that put about 10% effort into her role for the last 16 years isn't the way to support her. Buy her a pass to the Playboy Museum or watch her 3 Baywatch episodes with her.

Somehow I couldn’t find this so thanks for posting.

Do I think Valentini is petty enough to get rid of Billy because he isn’t being a “team player”? Yes I do. Do I think how Kelly behaved online and in the studio about the story would piss Frank off enough to sideline her? Yes I do. I also see him firing someone under the guise of budget that he just wants rid of, and can use several lanes to do it.

The stuff with LH coming on as a temp for the funeral when KM was available to film is very indicative of something being afoot. We know she is absolutely being paid for her guarantees and that the show is not working her enough to meet them this year. So she’s being paid for not working.

People saying this is just like what happened at DAYS is ridiculous. AA’s behavior is against the law. So far what we know about Frank’s behavior is petty and potentially vindictive. But that’s not harassment and sexual harassment level. The cast signed letters, asked for multiple investigations, and then went public. That hasn’t happened here. He’s just a shitty boss.

I may think Sam’s not needed on the show anymore, doesn’t mean I am not enjoying FV being roasted.

ALL OF THIS.

I am hearing from reliable sources that things at the studio are "odd". Decisions being made. Frank specifically. Also Varni specifically. Also the new/old writers. Apparently there is a sense of unease. All adds up to more questions. Confidence is not being inspired. 

Donna. Please take off your reporter hat. I've already told you this.

Sorry. I don't recall anything about anything like this. Meaning more general talk as opposed to a specific item. But that doesn't matter. If you say so, of course, I will comply. 

Fans set up a petition at Change.org to save Kelly Monaco.

Not sure if I can post the link.

Actually, there are 3. This is the one with the most signatures.

Also of course, we have one for Blaze.

Have any of these petitions ever worked?

Seems like a waste of time and energy.

Yes, some change.org petitions have prevailed. 

It's not really much time or energy involved. I've been involved in several fan campaigns. Only two have prevailed. AW: Saving Donna Love. DAYS: Firing Albert Alarr. Other DAYS fans claim getting Dena Higley fired. 

Specifically, the Beverlee McKinsey petition, well, I got this lovely email but they do not award Posthumous Emmys.

Maybe if KeMo added some energy to her performances there wouldn't be a need for petitions.
