It was a really unhinged subset of Carson fans and from the No Ordinary Love board circa the early, early 2000's.  I think they actually turned on Tamara before the whole thing was shut down.

Ah! I see. I could understand TB Carly fans or SJB Carly fans. Still...wow.

The second she started pushing for Carly and Lorenzo she became persona non grata to them, it was nasty to see.

I'll never forget their antics. Truly deranged.

Yup.  And the thing is Mo openly admits he and Steve treated Tamara badly in his own book lol.  No wonder she wanted to get far away from that pairing or work with someone else.

Do you watch the soap? He's been in the opening before, and was even in it yesterday.

Does he? I'm surprised he admitted it. Dish, dish.

And admitted, via his podcast, he treated Chad Duell bad, too.

It was no secret there was drama BTS in 2003-2005 with that whole gang, I'm just surprised Mo owned up to it.

I read it awhile back during lockdown, but Mo said he and Steve would basically bully her by joking and making fun of her because they were unhappy with their storylines at the time. He doesn't go into specifics about what storyline (I assume the Alcazar stuff).  I believe Mo made her so upset she started crying over it and then he felt bad.  Apparently him and TB talked about it and are good now, but he blames it on being in very bad head space at the time.  I was shocked he openly admitted that because it did not make him seem like a great guy or coworker.

There were a few other tidbits of conversations he had with VM and some other costars that sounded insulting, but I guess they either laughed it off, didn't care, or just didn't say anything.

The way they treated her onscreen seemed personal, especially in early '04. There is a scene where Jason laces into Carly for betraying Sonny that is so nasty, I never forgot it. And it all clearly went back to the Lorenzo thing taking off. Meanwhile Sonny gets his own new set (Greystone), his own leather jacket (supposedly because TK had one but who knows, lol) and Kelly Monaco to play with to try to compensate.

The way Mo retold it in his own words made him sound like a petty jerk (and Steve by extension).  I can only image the actual truth.  I absolutely get being in a bad mental place, but I don't think you can go around bullying your co-worker either unchecked.  Anyway it sounds like the two of them made up.  I just think it very clearly explains things you saw onscreen at the time and why TB got the hell out of GH when her contract was up.

As was always rumored at the time, yes. The show really screwed themselves.
