Here we go again. Another former STRAIGHT actor/actress from ATWT basically poo-poo’d the show’s LGBT fans. Terri, you’ve just lost my respect. Don’t count on me catching you on OLTL, another show that basically crashed and burned a very promising gay storyline for the sake of their “straight” viewers.

If you end up without a job at OLTL, I hope to God you don’t end up on either B&B or Y&R. I’d FF through your scenes so fast, it’d make that blonde hair of yours end up somewhere else.

I’ve thought about this a lot – and I think the reason that they chose to keep Chris alive at the expense of Reed is that Chris is a core character from a core family. Reed, IMO, was very much like the character of Jack in Titanic – a noble, heroic and romantic figure who existed at one specific period of time for Luke (as Jack did for Rose), to show them the maturity and value of love and sacrifice. Reed had no ties on the canvas to anyone, he was a loner with no family, and it was thru his connection to Luke that he learned of love and fulfillment. He was one of the great characters that this show was capable of creating – and as such, will be remembered by soap fans forever.

all of the writers & actors of any show have to follow the same script & back whatever the EP’s decision is if they ever want to keep working in this industry. if they come out & say that it was a horrible decision & it shouldn’t of been done that way is probably labeled a troublemaker & not given roles.
they also don’t have an emotional attachment to the characters like the fans do & as long as they get a scene that can be considered for an emmy they’re happy with it, hence the comments she made about Kathryn (Kim) & of course previous comments about Van being nominated for an emmy.
i think also that the 3 months between when they filmed a scene & it’s aired also contributed to this also. they forget what they’ve shot & are already on to other scenes & don’t know until it’s too late how the audience will respond to a scene & they can’t easily correct a storyline when the audience is in an uproar. if they would of done the 1 month or however long all of the other soaps use it can be corrected or rewritten when the fans start to complain.
but i think that the biggest problem is that alot of the EP’s just don’t care what the fans want & they have their own agenda & they don’t deviate from it & that’s why they’re losing fans & are in danger of being canceled.

I too like Terry as an actress, but she just doesn’t get it. Who cares about it providing an important story for the Hughes family. If Chris would not have survived, that still would have been an important story. I’m just saying that Luke & Reid deserved a happy ending just as the straight couples were given. Nancy’s death should have been more meaningful than it was. One death was enough. Why draw us into this great LuRe love story just give us such a tragic end. Don’t get me started on Chris and Katie having sex after only a couple of weeks, yet nothing for LuRe after months. May I say how homophobic was that. How pathetic it was that even in the end of the show Chris wasn’t even sure that he wanted the COS position. He didn’t deserve Reid’s or anyone else’s heart.

I think Teri is so full of herself!! By the looks of it Aubery is set to be Katie2.0 no thankyou one life to live. Mmm Teri I’m 100 % positive god had nothing with you getting this role rather the devil!! this would explain yr arrogance, feeling so self important, please those casting people knew who Terri was Jean Passinate is writing at oltl and I think the 10 other girls auditing were also just has entitled as you, I’m sure they were just as established as you are in the acting field!, look at list of actor’s that were in the running for Joey. I thinkATWT should have let Chris die and given Reed, Luke their happy ending, but since Katie the sweetheart of show needed a happy ending Luke Reed suffer. Reed dying had every thing to do with Katie getting her happy ending!! Further more if the writers feel the actor is capable they will write accordingly. The fact that Katie showed no development and promise shows that colombin is not A capable enough actress. I find it hiliarious that Terri is presuding a career in holistic foods, everytime I seen pictures of her at events, she was chowing down on ice cream, steak mash an gravy, white wine, meat an dairy wow Teri you really into healthy eating!! Not!! Fyi god doesn’t appreciate liars, an adulterous, and the way you went about getting this role shows that you have a bad heart ! You, Justifying every single one your action in your interview proves my point. Ps what goes up must come down. karma is her name.

George ouch we would be left with no soaps as Chris Goutman is now working for Y&R!! His a show killer of sorts. I would have loved emmy winner Martha Byne on one life to live anyone other than emmy nominie ( for younger actress- mind you) Terri Colombino. I still can’t believe that she is so tacky in that interview, micheal fairman did such a good job of interviewing Terri, early this year what I will always Remember about that interview is a comment made to TC about a conversation he had with Austin about feeding his two kids. An TC totally brushed it off as Austin being happy. Now she is all into if its in gods plans it is as simple as that. Heartless, terri as been out of work three months her husband works an she couldnt let her bf ( who hasn’t had a soild acting gig in almost two years) whoes wife is a stay at home mom have a chance to feed his two boys plus wife. Its suprising how much gossip these magazines have on these two.

Mmc, there isnt anything wrong in blabbing. i think it is great to get our points across. and view our opinons on the shows, actors good or bad.

Some of these comments are pretty harsh. I also hated the Reid ending, and to me it did feel like the gay characters were sacrificed so the straight characters got their happily ever after. That said, I’m not going to attack someone who doesn’t feel the same way as me. She has a difference of opinion; so what? That might make her naive, but not a bad person. It’s disappointing that some let their upset over the storyline make them want to bash those with a different view.
