[QUOTE="Michael Torrance, post: 107550, member: 719"] Her comments went public. A quick google search yields this: "This is the biggest pile of garbage I ever did -it's lucky I only signed for thirteen episodes. I'll be surprised if it lasts half that long. It's one thing to know you are making a lot of money off vulgarity, but when you don't know it's vulgar - it's plain stupid! She also called the show a a turkey saying, "I've played the same damn scene twenty-four times!" Ricardo Montalban himself mentions how harshly she characterized the show and he explains how his main motivation, besides money, on doing the show was to be opposite Stanwyck, and was disappointed he only had a scene with her that was insignificant. In the same interview he also talks of how he agreed with Stanwyck that it was the same repetitive, not imaginative scene again and again (he calls it crap himself) and not very well written. He also seems to think the show was more successful in Europe than in the US. Considering how badly it did in the US, maybe it fared better there by comparison.
