And to Rick who posted this:
My money is on Nadia Bjorlin. She did fuck Bruce Willis to get her foot in the door in Hollywood.
That's a defamatory statement. How do you know what she and BW did or did not do? Did you spy on them? Just because she went to one movie premiere with him doesn't mean anything.
Well, I don't know what Nadia's agenda was, but she talked to the press about the Willis affair, complete with nuggets about screwing so rough that a lamp fell off a table.
wwwwwhhhat? When was this? :laugh: http://www.monstersandcritics.com/people/news/article_1325012.php/Nadia_Bjorlin_spares_no_details_Bruce_Willis_smashing_sexShe talked HERSELF to multiple outlets (not just the ones quoted here) about breaking ornaments and lamps and shit. And I still think its her...however, those thinking it is RM may have a point...how in holy hell did she score an emmy nod? And also...I ABSOLUTELY think Dena's plans were to have Lexie have an affair with Daniel...part of the whole 80% of couples with autistic kids divorce piece of the story. Then they totally backed away from that and centered the story around RM...and she sure has been getting attention and airtime... I guess that's plausible. I think it's more likely NBC nixed that idea if Higley was planning on it. Sounds like they want the story to be positive and about overcoming odds. I think that is why suddenly Kate is involved in that and slept with Daniel so there is a wedge between Chelsea and Daniel. The wedge that was always planned but it was going to be Lexie/Daniel instead of Kate/Daniel.

Oh, and I desperately want to know which actors were penning their own stuff. I want to know where the blame really lies for all the messes we've been seeing in each individual story.
"Summer of Romance." Pssh.
God, can you imagine how Higley must've felt to be writing material only to have the actors and producers blatantly spitting in her face by taking the script and saying, "Fuck you, I'm gonna write what I want!" I mean, that makes me feel a little bad for her, actually. I'm not a fan of her writing, but there's a way to go about things and that just ISN'T the way. Thanks for saying that. No matter what we feel about Dena, this was just WRONG. As someone who's been in management of things, and people who decide they're right, and want to do their own thing, even the most subtle insubordination can rock the boat. Big time.

actually, if you go back and look, rachel melvin's air time sky-rocketed around the time ed scott came on. No it didn't. Rachel Melvin was already very much front burner well before Ed came aboard with Zack's death, the stuff with Nick and Willow, and Touch the Sky.

Regardless of whether or not Rachel is the "pet", she is definitely talented. She most certainly deserved her Emmy nomination. Just to be clear, I think RM can act...it just boggles my mind that she got the nod based on her submission. She's not at all bad, and she's grown since she's been on the show... I thought it was a giggle that Judi Evans got the nod too, and lord knows she's talented. I've been watching her in various roles forever, but that role/those scenes-- seriously? I mean, seriously.
Anyway, I don't mean to suggest RM cannot act...and they have no shortage of 'can't act worth a damn' folks on DOOL...

He’s also encouraged actors, including one overblown diva, to rewrite not just her own lines, but her scene partners. [This star] has taken to telling others that she and Ed are the head writers.
Sorry, but this really sounds like RM. First, the dialogs and scenes for Chelsea/Dan are really awfull and amateurish. And second, they are full of how is Chelsea beautifull, hot and how much Dan loves her. It really sounds like the kind of stuff fanfiction writers writes and it is very in sync with the "OMG, it´s so amazing I´m paid to make out all the time with this hot actor" stuff RM puts on her blog lately. Plus, SP never screentested with her and unless the casting director is blind he was not hired to be paired with her. That´s very unusual when the show wants to form a longterm frontburner pairing like Dansie is.
We also have Chelsea's blog showing up again, which was written in a very young and girlish manner. Plus, she is constantly on the screen. The 4th of July episode was more like Dansea day. When they weren't in a scene, they were being propped by everyone else. She seems the most logical choice. Stephanie would be next choice due to screen time and plot, followed by Morgan who came out of nowhere about the time things started going downhill fast.
Seems like I read Nadia didn't chose to be paired with Lucas, so she doesn't make much sense as a choice to me, and she's not on nearly as much as the other three. Nicole doesn't seem to be on as much as the other three either.

Not sure about the Diva through? Could it NOT be Deidre? I mean, in the same SUDS report, Diedre IS referred to as "diva," lol. It's another item, of course, but it could be a hint.

I'm ready for Rachel Melvin to post a blog, i would love to see her respond to all this..Or even Ali...come on Days stars speak up and defend yourself... Well I've dreaded her blogs since she goes on and on about how awesome it is working with SC and making out with him is so much fun. I really am counting on grannysex to end Chan and I'm scared to death she is going to get on there and not tell her fans to not worry, Chelsea and Daniel will get through this.

No it didn't. Rachel Melvin was already very much front burner well before Ed came aboard with Zack's death, the stuff with Nick and Willow, and Touch the Sky. i never considered all that stuff front-burner. i mean it is, but she wasn't carrying the storyline on her own. she was just part of the kiddie group who as a whole, were part of a larger storyline.
in the last six months, she's saved her father's life, become infertile, started a controversial relationship with an older man, etc etc. this to me, is juicy, meaty material. and it's all been given to rachel on her own. i guess what i mean, (and yea, i see i'm grasping at straws a little bit to prove my point, lol) is that i consider chelsea to very much be a front-burner right now, with her own storyline. morgan, same thing. stephanie is a prop for max, and chloe is just being used as the town slut right now. i've eliminated morgan from suspicion in my mind, so i'm going with melvin.

I also want to say that I am so fucking glad I have picked boards to post on that are not in anyway shape of form connected to NBC and SONY...I am so glad we have the freedom here to talk about this openly and honestly without having our threads vanish before our eyes. The fact they are pulling threads at Sony and NBC makes the whole thing seem even more serious.
I also want to thank the mods for the "freedom of speech" aspect of this board. For the stupidest of reasons, I have been edited/deleted on the NBC/Sony boards, and nothing is more frustrating than to see your comments not posted because someone over there didn't agree with you. To all of those at DR, I am proud to be a member here! This is the best site by far to discuss soap topics! I salute thee! :hail: Big fucking word. I have never been a member on NBC cause I saw the first time I was there how fucked up it was. And on Sony I used to be active but not anymore, several of my friends have gotten banned for so silly reasons. I didn't post anything in their thread about this because I knew it would get deleted after a while and I was right.

yup, you and i are on the exact same page. i definitely don't think it's nadia. she hasn't had enough screentime to even warrant being a favorite or pet of a producer. as others have said, i don't think a veteran actress along the likes of DH, KA, LK, MBE, etc, would ever do this, knowing the strife it would cause behind the scenes and the trpuble they could get themselves into. this has got to be a younger actress. the only suspects for me are KR, and RM. the BI posted earlier points RM's way, not KR's. like others, i do think the truth lies somewhere in between, and i definitely don't think that dena is a saint. on the other hand, i do think it's likely ed scott was boffing one of the actresses, and that led to this whole debacle.
Chelsea airtime has remained the same. If she was a "pet" she would be on everyday or her screentime would of gone up drastically which is one of the few things that could substantiate the KR accusation since she has been featured a lot this summer.
actually, if you go back and look, rachel melvin's air time sky-rocketed around the time ed scott came on in 2007. last year she was involved in stephanie's rape and the sorority storyline, along with all the other kiddies. this year, she has her own front-burner romance. plus, as i've said, i think the BI is important here, and the poster said the actress in question had over a hundred episodes under belt. that eliminates KR. i dunno, i just don't get the feeling that KR is either a diva, someone who would walk around bragging that she is co-writing the show when she is pracatically brand-new, and again, the cocaine thing to me, screams rachel melvin. anyhoo, i do really like RM and chelsea. trust me, i don't WANT this to be true. i'm just following the clues, and drawing the most logical conclusion. There was also a so called falling out with the kid playing Nick. Interesting Kate also slept with Nick so basically this is the same rehashed s/l but with different characters.

Here is Rachel's count from last year:
Jan - 14 Feb - 13 Mar - 13 April - 9 May - 10 Jun - 12 July - 15 Aug - 12 Sep - 12 Oct - 10 Nov - 10 Dec - 10
She appeared in 142 total episode and was down 2 from the previous year. Ed Scott came on at the end of August and her counts didn't skyrocket.
So Far this year it is Jan - 8 Feb - 15 Mar - 16 April - 11 May - 13 Jun - 14
And is five episodes off of what she was from Jan-Jun 2007

No it didn't. Rachel Melvin was already very much front burner well before Ed came aboard with Zack's death, the stuff with Nick and Willow, and Touch the Sky. I think the poster was referring to the types of stories she was doing. She went from Teen/youth/family oriented stories to adult romance-based stories.
Ed Scott didn't start having an impact on stories until late 2007. He came on in August but storylines are mapped out several months in advance so after the Sorority storyline would be the first time Ed would have had an impact on Chelsea's storyline.

Just to be clear, I think RM can act...it just boggles my mind that she got the nod based on her submission. She's not at all bad, and she's grown since she's been on the show...

Anyway, I don't mean to suggest RM cannot act...and they have no shortage of 'can't act worth a damn' folks on DOOL... The one tape wasn't very good but most that watched all of the Younger actress submissions thought that her submission was better then all of them.

Could it NOT be Deidre? I mean, in the same SUDS report, Diedre IS referred to as "diva," lol. It's another item, of course, but it could be a hint. Thing about the word Diva is that Deidre, Kristian, and other big name actresses like that ARE alreday considered Diva's. Kim Zimmer, Susan Lucci, etc. They have been coined that from their success and popularity over many many years. And it doesn't always have to be a negative term. They are Daytime's Diva's. "Overblown Diva" sounds like a wannabe diva almost. I don't know, just a thought.

As for RM's episode counts, if you toss out January, which could have been affected by either the strike or vacation time, she's in more episodes this year.

That doesn't make any sense. January is part of 2008 PLUS the strike didn't start affecting DAYS until the end of January which was when the writers names fell out of the credits.
