AMC's Kaye: 'My Contract Is Up'TK says that he is not quitting, his contract is up, whose first preference was that SOW not write anything at all about his negotiations. SOW says "Sorry Toast!" TK says that he hasn't decided what he is going to do. But he will always do what he can to help the show and to help JHC. She is a friend of his. It's not secret that Kaye, and many other AMC actors-have not been pleased with the shows writing for a while. TK says that he thinks that they have a good group of actors here. He says but sometimes it feels like they are just filling in the gaps for the writers, and that is not their job. It's like playing on a football field with potholes everywhere. You can't relax and do your job because you're worried about breaking your ankle. He says that's what the scripts are sometimes. You're going: "Can I say this? I'd better not, because it doesn't make sense with that..." When pressed, TK cites one humorous example of a "pothole" in an upcoming love scene between Zach and Kendall in her apartment. TK says that she f'ed his son in that bed, so he really doesn't want to sleep there. It would be fun to explore the human issues involved with these people, instead of just going from event to event. He says that he would love that. Many fans agree, so hopefully TPTB are listening. In the meantime, Zach will continue battling Ryan for Kendall's heart. Cameron Mathison says that he is not going to leave.He says that TK cares so much about the show. If he tries to leave, CM says that he will staple him to his dressing room. TK says that he doesn't know what's going to happen, but there's a big difference between quitting and sticking out your contract.

"zach" is not special! hell Ethan laid on the same damn sheets that Ryan was damn near a permanent part of. those sheets don't change and he actually expected a new bed? who the f*ck does he think he is? honestly. STFU old man!
i do love the interview because to me, it says he's gone, OUTTA THERE! he may not "quit" but the point that there is a big difference between quitting and waiting out your contract..umm..yeah, he's out.

i hope so! Especially when he acts like that with the press. And why would he say Carruthers is my good friend- isn't that a little unprofessional? maybe it's not to some but still...

I don't understand the man, he has a frontburner s/l with AM & all he does is give interviews. I thought he didn't like to do this. Why bring Ethan up now Why should he care about the bed where Kendall slept with Ethan :-[Stupid A$$, getting rid of the bed or a love scene in another bed is not going to take away the fact that he is doing it with a woman who has also done his son. I hate this SOB more everyday, just reading about him makes me hot & I don't mean sexy hot either I guess he thinks Ethan fans & Rendall fans should also love him like his fans do or maybe he likes to keep rubbing it in our faces since Ethan is now on another show I don't guess Ethan fans are paying him any attention anymore !

Frankly I wish the botoxed, arrogant old, quasi-actor would just shut up.
Who cares whether he goes or stays? He has ruined AMC. He sucked the life out of it as surely as he did PC. Now that the heat is on he wants to cry foul. Bull. He got everything he wanted on a platter and he's still not happy. The one thing he could not get was support of anyone but the Zen Zealots. They are not enough to make him look "shiny" to the real ptw at Disney.
When you consider the furor over the firing of James and the avalanche of positive press James has received at DOOL, I would think the old hack is pretty steamed. I bet he hope his "7 foot son" would fade into oblivion and then those who questioned the wisdom of letting him go would sound silly. Not so. In retrospect what sounds silly is getting rid of a gem like James and keeping the randy old billygoat around.

TK is so freaking ridiculous. I really hopes this means he has one foot out the door.

Sounds to me like he's prepping for an exit. And I can't believe how unprofessional he is to attack the writing like that. I mean, sure... it's bad right now. But the actors should really keep that behind their doors instead of airing it all over the place. Don't get me wrong - I'm loving that he said it! But I hope the writers take note of his loyalty and write him into a corner.
Also, what's this about TK wanting the writers to explore the human issues of the characters? That's a pretty risky request from him, considering that style of writing would require much more emotion than he is willing to give to his preformance.

Well said, platinum!!! Everyone knows the writing isn't steller. It hasn't been for awhile. My main problem with what he said is this-he trashed people he works with on a daily basis in a public forum. That ,to me, is distasteful and unproffesional. I was brought up to work hard, appreciate what I have, and respect those I work for and with. To me, you do not humiliate people you work with/for publicly. You speak to them behind closed doors and respect them outside of those walls you work within.I don't care what profession-that is just common decency, particularly if these people are catering to you. For me, this just looked like a pompous actor trying to dictate what should and should not be done because he said so. Maybe if he had the recognition with the public the way Susan Lucci does-fine. But Susan is a profeesional and well respected woman and that's why she is well known and loved. She knows how to handle herself, TK does not. I just don't think anyone should act like this-maybe a spoiled child but not a an adult.

All I can say is...Who the hell does he think he is!?....God aparently. Someone needs to tell him he is a joke. He will always be a stumpy, toad frag, third rate actor with road map wrinkles on his disgusting face. TK can go to hell for all I care. AMC is dead to me anyway.
Anyone seen the ratings for the female viewer demographic? HA HA HA! Eat $hit and die TK.

;D LMAO Zoe!
And Meg, I completely agree! Especially in his profession where the public opinion is the most important part of whether he gets up and works the next day.
The thing is, if TK tells us regularly, two things are going to happen. Those who are actually enjoying the show might second guess it and think, "You know, maybe the writing really is bad right now." And they will start to dislike the show.
The other is the people who are fed up with the writing right now will think, "See - I was right. Heck, even the actors can't stand the writing." And they will feel even more justified in disliking the show.
By the way - note for Carruthers... if TK is a friend of yours acting like that, you sure don't want enemies!!!
