SHE IS A REAL PIECE OF WORK!!!!!!!!!!!

Her ship sailed a long time ago from Y&R.

Lol Exactly!

I love the Drucilla character as so many people do, but if she felt she needed to make these points, she had a lot of pull and power from being such a popular character and I feel she could have “fought from within the show” to change it. I think she has valid reasons for her complaints but she went about it the wrong way, it hurt the show to lose her and now therecis so much animosity on both sides. I would love to see her come back if the parties can reconcile.

Perhaps she tried doing it privately at the onset. And, there is a good possibility that keeping it private between the two parties, or being ‘nice’ did not work. Thus, the lawsuit at this late date. Give people the benefit of the doubt, would you? It is the Christian/human thing to do. As I said….no one knows the machinations of the law. We do not know the response she might have gotten from the network. They could have given her the cold shoulder or become very offensive. Networks do think they are God…and, within their domain, they are. This pull gives them power…..she may have tried…gone the ‘right’ route, but failed. She may have given them time to assess whatever it was she asked/wanted with no avail.

Please, unless you have a degree in Psychiatry, do not psychoanalyze or diagnose a person you see in one dimension…TELEVISION. Mental illness should not be bandied around, especially by a lay-person. I shall speak no more of this….be kind.
Furthermore, unless you have walked in a person of color’s shoes, do not spew irrational words. You have no clue, what goes on in people’s psyche…..
If the race card, which you mentioned, not I ( I abhor that terminology) was pulled? Perhaps she has a reason(s).
I am white, but I have friends who are not…..good, well-to-do, intelligent,and loyal friends. So, before you put anything in writing, put your ducks in a row first. Peace out.

And how do YOU know this? Last I heard, Eileen, she was living on earth.
Victoria is a very talented actress.
We do not know what goes on behind the scenes, that includes any lawsuit. None of us is privy to anyone’s private life…or the truth ….and nothing but the truth. So, who are we to judge?
The same has been said about Michael Muhney….no one knows!!!! However, everyone seems to think MM was wronged. We just do not know.
I will not be one to jump on any bandwagon headed for The Bastille!!

All it takes is for a good lawyer to go into that courtroom and show that CBS/Sony has tried to prevent her from getting a job or trying to interfere with her going on interviews etc. everybody seems to think that she wants back on Y&R I am guessing she is looking for a big cash settlement . As for her reputation of being hard to work with probably is but if you think she is the only one boy is everybody in for a shock. Most actors are difficult not everybody is a warm little fuzz ball to work with. I happen to have liked the character of Drucilla but I do think that ship has sailed but I do think she just might get a settlement. Hunter Tylo did from Aaron Spelling for unhiring her because she was pregnant. VR should have hired the pit bull Gloria Alred.

VR tried raising money to create her own web series. I guess she didn’t raise enough money to get it off the ground.

She doesn’t have the chops …that’s why she doesn’t strike out on her own. Oh, and she is bitter.

Andrea I think she is looking for money not a job back and she is very good at playing the race card and the current climate that is going on with this country perfect timing for her. Just so you know I do not agree with it just an observation.

Yea, finally a voice of sanity. Well said!

On the other hand damien..bringing VR back as Drucilla would mine so much drama and story nobody would care about her rants..the bad writing..or JFP…they could go for nearly a year just exposing where she was..and then on from there with the ongoing repercussions of what her new life does to her regaining her old life as Drucilla..unfortunately if it were EVER to come about that KRAZY KLOWN would pull an I told you so and demand a trailer in the Griffith Park Observatory near the big telescope..many skylights..alien music playing..oh the horror of her now…

Well, damien…I am not disputing what you are saying about Dru being needed. ….?
But, think about it. Since the character left, Neil’s life has been one disaster after another.
Let’s rewind a bit. To me? Neil serves no true purpose except that he’s part of the Y&R passe’ group…and, I mean that in a complimentary way.
Why don’t ‘they’ let him go and bring Dru back? I like that idea much better. A storyline concentrating on Dru and perhaps amnesia, sounds a lot more feasible than Neil making a fool of himself yet again….. So sick of the same old same old with this guy. It’s like watching the same reel over and over again…Lord deliver me from this inanity.

Funny you should say that Richard that is why they LML killed the character off she thought Brad was going to bring her over to B&B like he did Eileen Davidson when LML fired her.

Good response, richard….as I said, she comes back, on either soap, with amnesia…..LOL.

Lol, MB.
That’s just a little bit dramatic. Let’s see how this unfolds. There must be others who would love to have her back. Perhaps she is justified in what she is doing. Where there’s smoke, must there be fire? Sensationalism may be playing a big part in all this.

Bill Bell was very good to her two of her ideas were used she has a short memory I wish she would quit attacking the Bells he is gone and had nothing to do with her issues in 2007.

She states this is all about her race getting directorial positions but it started when she wanted to direct at YR and they told her politely they needed her as an actress not directing. She got infuriated and quit!

A voice of sanity, finally! Well said

Penny, where have you been all my life? Finally, reasonable and fair thinking.

I responded in my last comment but I’ll repeat…I go on several of the pages whether I watch the soap all the time, sporadically, just to see an actor I like that was on a previous soap…or because the post by Michael Fairman is interesting. This was a post about an actress suing a network and calling racism…so no…anytime I’ve commented on a post other than GH that you happen to be on was because I was on that page. Period. I avoided using your name when responding to some of the comments you’ve made…just as you and…sigh…I now won’t mention her name…but your “friend” out here…have avoided using mine. But again, you both know I read the posts…yet you continue, consistently, to reference me and my feelings on ageism. And yes, when it comes to that topic I will respond…and you and, sigh again, your friend…usually preface your comments with something referencing the response you expect to get from me…etc. Now, you can accuse me of the ludicours, infantile, “stalking”…which is similarly “out there” when you said you were getting comments in your personal email which again…no one here has anyone’s email and never writes to anyone directly…but I can accuse you of the same. If we tracked all the times I’ve posted your posts are almost always directly under mine. Coincidence? Perhaps…Don’t know but you’re post is always near, and contradicts, mine. You’re ridiculously possessive. If someone posts to someone you’re friendly with you jump right in to tell them that that person is “yours.” If I joke with someone as I did with Harry…your “friend” is right there to write to Harry and refer to something I wrote to him…to yet once again, contradict me. Case in point. I joked with Harry about calling Duke the Duke of Macy’s…(though it was his joke…Bloomingdale’s. No matter…) He jokingly apologized to me about referring to Duke in that way…It was all said in JEST!!! But there was “your friend” telling him no need to apologize… This goes on and on between the two of you. So again, don’t twist this around. I respond to you directly…you talk “about” me without mentioning my “name” out here. Again, you and sigh…this is tedious…”your friend” constantly toss asides about me. Deny it??? I would hope not. Look, CeeCee. It’s a shame that a friendly board with a shared enjoyment of soaps and discussion should have turned so hostile. But I can tell you in all honesty you started with me. I’ve pointed out how and when several times. I would have hoped, even back then, that you would have looked at what you wrote to me, realized how you came off, apologized and we would have gone back to our regularly scheduled programming (pun intended)…we actually started off friendly…. But you escalated your point…which put me on the defensive…and it went on and on. When your “friend” (again, exhausting) chimed in and anted up the antagonism…that was it. And there it is.… Read more »
