They're a couple of professional actors. They're not paid to like each other. I daresay there have been many on-screen pairings that were purely fictional. They're paid to turn up at conventions so what you get there is an act too.
My point was, on the job harrassment is unacceptable and unprofessional no matter what the job is. Nobody wants to work under those conditions no matter how much they get paid for it.^ I'm not sure bringing HR into this is a good idea. In most companies giving someone a position because of their looks and age is considered discrmination and actionable by HR. In Hollywood however, favoring one actor over another based on youth or their look is a completely accepted practice. They way the Voyager show was run would not have been able to happen in your average company with an HR department.

Which means Ryan must be quite the masochist to put up with it all OR things weren't as bad as they're sometimes made out to be.
What, being nasty to someone for no good reason isn't enough? Is that how people are supposed to treat each other? Is "Do unto others as you would have done unto you" no longer being taught?I don't think she 'endured' anything. It was a gig like any other gig. You like some people you don't like others. You work together because you're professionals. I'm sure she's worked with more objectionable people without fuss. In fact I don't think she's ever made a fuss, so what's your beef? If you don't like one actor then give a better reason than she was 'nasty' to another one because that just doesn't wash, especially from all the 'evidence' I've read in this thread.
Of course, so it never happened.I have seen no disrespect.
So Mulgrew is making up stories to make herself look bad in the eyes of her public?Dramatic effect?
Off screen?She's an actor. Making up a persona is what she does.
This started over the comment of actors playing up anamosities to make themselves more interesting.Where exactly does Kate Mulgrew make up stories that make her look bad? I thought I'd read this entire thread, and I did read the entire interview linked a couple of pages back - so what have I missed?
No, I'm sorry I can't.But...where can I see evidence of animosities being stirred up?
I really just don't understand this thread at all, and I'm assuming this is because I've missed something, so if you or somebody could point out what I've missed, Exodus, I would be grateful.
