Kim Zimmer Expresses Dipleasure over Guiding Light Direction
Matt Richenthal at .It's safe to say Kim Zimmer is a tad frustrated with the current state of her character on Guiding Light. Zimmer expressed as much in a message below fans on her official website.
"Is this one day a week stuff going to stop any time soon?" My response to him (as I talked myself down) was to say, "I have no idea what this regime is doing!"
All I know is that for the first time in my history on this show I am way under my guaranteed number of shows.
I don't understand why they would rather pay a character (actor) with such history and connection to what was Guiding Light to not work, than to work said actor their negotiated number of shows a week. But then I'm not the executive director nor am I the "suit" at P & G who has to put up the money (free money) to an under worked actor.
I wish I could tell you all that the reason I haven't been on the show was because I was in rehearsals for some fabulous Broadway show or on remote for a great indie film, but the reality is that I've been sitting on my butt wondering why I'm not being written. I don't know who the powers that be dislike more, Kim Zimmer or Reva Shayne.That being said, I won't be seen after next week for another two because I took my vacation. So hopefully when I get back they will have come up with a bread crumb to throw my way.... Sour grapes? Damn Straight!!!!! I love you all and am so glad to have you in my corner.
