The "F" Word: The FCC vs. Miss Maxie Jones

The mild-mannered Spin’s Vixenella has had enough of General Hospital…again This time she is taking matters into her own hands and calling in the Feds, not the Feds currently sniffing around Port Charles for dangerous balls, but the Federal Communications Commission. Yes, in utter exasperation, the Vixenella has finally reported GH to the FCC. Here is a transcript of her call.

FCC: Good Morning, this is the Federal Communications Commission Complaint Department. This call may be recorded for quality control purposes. Now, how may I help you?

Vixenella: Hi, Vixenella here. Are ya’ll the bunch in charge of regulating the public air waves, like network TV…the same ones who raised all that hell about Janet Jackson's boob-shot at the Super Bowl?

FCC: Yes, we are.

Vixenella: Well, the Vixenella is a patient woman and certainly not one to complain, but I can’t take the outrageous obscenity on General Hospital any longer. I want the FCC to crack down on GH like the Goth God of Zume.

FCC: Miss Vixenella, what exactly is the nature of your complaint?

Vixenella: Well, it is Miss Maxie Jones and her persistent, wanton, reckless use of the “F” word. Should decent, God-fearing, refined, sensitive viewers of daytime television, such as the Vixenella, be exposed to Maxie’s use of the “F” word day after day? What about children? There could be kids watching, and what do they hear, the foul “F” word rolling off Maxie’s tongue without a second thought.

FCC: Miss Vixenella, are you suggesting the “F” word has been used on General Hospital, a daytime network program?

Vixenella: Yes, that is exactly what I am telling you. Maxie Jones on General Hospital has used the “F” word at least a zillion times. Nearly everytime she speaks of Mr. Damien M. Spinelli she uses the “F” word, and I’ve had enough of her assault on decency.

FCC: Miss Vixenella, have you contacted the program or network directly about your concern?

Vixenella: Do you think I would be bothering you if I hadn’t already contacted both GH and the network? I have written and called that GH Head Writer/Special Consultant Bob Guza, and the truth is…I think Guza loves the “F” word as much as Maxie Jones does.

FCC: Miss Vixenella, can you describe the nature of your contact with Mr. Guza?

Vixenella: Well, first I called Mr. Guza and told him I thought Maxie Jones needed her mouth washed out with soap. He asked if that was because Maxie kissed Johnny Z, and I said, “no, but a good lip- scrubbing with some antibacterial soap wouldn’t hurt that either.”

I explained as regrettable and vile as Maxie kissing Lulu’s angry, worthless, shiftless, boyfriend was, it was not my business to judge if she wanted to whore herself out and wallow in the muck with the likes of Johnny Z. I advised Mr. Guza my concern was strictly limited to Maxie’s continuous, daily use of the “F” word.

I implored Mr. Guza to have Maxie cease and desist her wretched use of the “F” word, particularly when speaking to or about Mr. Spinelli. I advised Guza, "everyone on nine planets had already heard Maxie call Spinelli the “F” word…"

FCC: Excuse me, Miss Vixenella, are we talking about the same obscene “F” word?

Vixenella: Sir, we must be talking about the same “F” word. Have you ever heard Maxie use another “F” word? “Friend” is the only “F” word she knows. In fact, at this point, it may be the only word of any alphabetic stripe, she knows.

The Vixenella knows doggone well Maxie’s obsessive use of the “Friend-word” to describe Spinelli is a bald-faced lie. Spinelli is not just her friend; Maxie Jones is in love with Spinelli; you know it; I know it; fans everywhere know it; Guza knows it; Hell, the crew of the International Space Station knows it, but every day ad nauseum, we are exposed to this incessant “F” word from Maxie’s lips. At this point, most GH fans would prefer exposure to the free-range toxic balls roaming Port Charles than to hear Maxie whine out that “F” word one.more.time.

And, since ABC doesn’t have the good sense to put a stop to it, can you FCC people step up and help out here?

FCC: Now, Miss Vixenella, when you contacted Mr. Guza did he give you any satisfaction that changes in Maxie’s use of the “F” word would be forthcoming?

Vixenella: No, he did not, and this crap with the “F” word has been going on for nearly a year. I’m telling you, I think Bob Guza himself is the one behind Maxie’s use of the “F” word. The last message from Mr. Guza was back during the summer when he told us to “Believe.” Guza said to “believe f*ship would turn into love,” and we’ve been “believing,” but as to the Spinelli and Maxie romantic love story, it has been slim on the “receiving.”

Suffice it to say, the Vixenella’s negotiations with Mr. Guza broke off when he declined the Vixenella’s kind invitation for a sudsy mouth scrub with a scorching hot metal-brush, if he let Maxie use the “F” word one more time.

FCC: Is there something the FCC could convey to Mr. Guza to prompt settlement in a mutually agreeable fashion?

Vixenella: Well, now that you mention it, I would be satisfied with the following: Maxie could add “boy” before the “F” word when speaking of Mr. Spinelli, i.e. “boyfriend.” That would work, or Miss Jones could refer to Mr. Spinelli as her lover, significant other, bed-buddy, or at least something remotely descriptive of their relationship, but the “F” word, friend has got to go before this Vixenella does some toxic ball-bashing of her own.

FCC: Miss Vixenella, to avoid a nasty investigation, is there any consensus or compromise you can reach with GH regarding Miss Jones’ use of the “F” word?

Vixenella: No, there is no middle-ground. Spinelli and Maxie have been doing their dance of love for too long. So, this Spixie fan is not willing to compromise by accepting only a Spixie friendship as some warped consolation prize! I don't want a Spixie friendship...I've seen that; it was lovely, and it has beautifully moved on to love, so either cough up the Spixie love story, or put an end to the “f*ship.” It is indecent and obscene how long the Vixenella has been waiting for a romantic Spixie love story.

FCC: Thank you, Miss Vixenella. You poor dear, you and the Spixie fans have suffered enough. For the love of all that is right and just, we will get right on this.

Vixenella: Thank you! Ta and Spixie Kisses to you and the whole gang over at the FCC.

My Shocking Exposé of Bias in Soap Media Polling: Part One

Believe Comment Sz
Thanks to my Spixie friend Heather aka Movie Surfer at Live Journal for this beautiful banner.


My Shocking Exposé of Bias in Soap Media Polling: Part One

Soap opera press -- journalism or propaganda pimping machine? The Vixenella gives her spin in a two-part expose published first by Blog Critics online magazine.

I am no Woodward and Bernstein. Heck, I am not even Geraldo Rivera’s belly lint, but Spin’s Vixenella knows agenda-driven media bias when it splatters in her face. What is Spin’s Vixenella ranting about now? The soap industry “press,” a multi-billion dollar a year business with numerous publications dedicated to covering all things soap opera. Are any of them more than a propaganda arm for the networks? Today, Spin’s Vixenella is not so sure, and she wants some answers.
(For the full article, first published by Blog Critics online magazine, click on The Vixenella's Spin icon below.)




VIXENELLA'S VIDEO OF THE DAY: Enjoy a new Spixie mvid from one of The Vixenella's favorite Spixie fans, NewEnglander, an uber talented Spixie mvidder. NewEnglander never fails to capture the mood and essence that is Spixie. Spixie is a classic love story with a spicy twist. With Burning Love, NewEnglander uses the spicy Wyonna re-make of this timeless classic Elvis tune. How wonderful!

Imaginary Memo from Bob Guza to Spinelli & Maxie (Spixie) Fans

Spoilers may be mentioned in this SNARKY, satirical post.

*This is Spin's Vixenella's rendering of a Memo from Guza & Gang* (i.e. NOT A REAL MEMO FROM GUZA...please do not re-post as insider scoop on scurrilous other soap-related websites.)


To: Hard-Headed Spixie Fans

From: Bob G., The Frons, & the GANGstas

June 12, 2008
____________________________________________

Dear Spixie Fans:

Please pay attention. I have been trying to tell you something since the end of the writers' strike...for the past 5 -6 weeks. I have written Spixie in every way possible to underscore Spinelli & Maxie are just BFF! Writers' Strike Spixie was JUST YOUR IMAGINATION...now please cooperate & stop making me work so hard to erase REAL SPIXIE from your minds.

For the record, the last REAL SPIXIE you saw was the day after the "you are not a toy kiss." From the day I had Spin leave Maxie at the Canadian Bus Stop, I have been working overtime to make sure I banish REAL SPIXIE from your minds. How many times have I had Maxie call him "just her friend?" How many times must Spin sound like a blithering idiot...dumb-struck in Maxie's presence? How embarrassingly blind & stupid must I make Maxie before you understand...Spixie is not in MY deck of cards?

Still you clamor for Spixie! Sheesh people, I have already pushed back the second coming of Shelle & the arrival of Jason Cook for a month to try to let cool you Spixie fans down. Still you are calling, writing, emailing. ENOUGH!...

Now I have thrown caution to the wind, & I am going for broke...Just to give him some airtime, I am putting Spin with every single character male or female in PC that I otherwise don't want to give a real storyline...Sam, Leyla, Jax, Diane, etc. For heaven's sake, I even let Spin get dressed up, manned up, & act normal to go to a wedding with the lovely Leyla. I'm just saying, work with me people, Spixie is not in the cards, BUT I am open to other less popular, less charismatic characters with which we could pair Spin. Still you are calling, writing, emailing..blah, blah, Spixie, blah, love Spixie, blah wanna see Spixie..blah, blah, Spixie, blah.

OK, last straw! You relentless Spixies, who didn't jump ship when Maxie straddle-kissed Johnny as Spin watched, have forced my hand. Now I have to go big, or go home...PROSTITUTION...Maxie agrees to have sex with Johnny in exchange for money. Yep, how are you Spixie fans going to like a dose of that for your sweet Spinelli, not loving Spixie so much now are ya?

Spixies, I'll give you this, you have been a hard bunch to TRAIN, but I've been training you nonetheless. Surely a few of you have fallen off the Spixie wagon by now. I really have been patient. I have slowly and systematically changed the dynamic of the Spixie relationship for the past 6 weeks. The cumulative effect of this should be obvious to even the most stubborn among you. I even gave you Spixies some wacky hijinks like Spin waking up in Maxie's bed to ease your pain and pump up your alternative reality music vids.

All the while, I was slowly, systematically TRAINING you to understand Spixie are just friends…nothing more…never have been. It was nothing more than a bunch of run amok scab writers who saw a spark between two of the best young actors on our show and tried to run with it.

I am at my wit's end as to what to do for you relentless Spixie fans. Now please content yourself with the REAL Spixie scenes from January 29 until May 5, conveniently located on YouTube, and shut-up, and enjoy the Days of Our Lives Shelle Hell RE-RUN headed your way in 2 short weeks. Just read my recent interviews in the soap magazines. I've assured you Dr. Matt Hunter will not compromise Maxie and Spinelli's relationship, (which in case you STILL don't understand is JUST FRIENDS.) Of course, Maxie's new love will in no way impede her relationship with her best "gal pal," Spinelli. I also promised you a "summer of love among the ruins," & by God that is what you are going to get, "RUINS!"

Love & Kisses,

Bob G, the Frons, & the GANGstas.


P.S. You will still get your Spixie BFF in precisely the same dosage we feature our other opposite sex BFFs. (I'm not talking Jason/Carly BFF screen time 'cause they are my favs)…but I can say unequivocally, you will get your Spixie BFFs with at least as much regularity as we bring you Sonny & Robin or Alexis & Jax, and of course every other Christmas, Spinelli and Maxie may brush past each other on the docks.
Keep tuning in for more & PLEASE CEASE & DESIST on the calling, emailing, & letter-writing. And, you Miss Spin's Vixenella…I got my eye on you….I know you have been drunk dialing the local "Horse-Head Home Delivery Service" asking about their volume discount.

*AGAIN, this was Spin's Vixenella MOCKING Guza & Gang* (i.e. NOT A REAL MEMO FROM GUZA...please do not re-post as insider scoop on scurrilous other soap-related websites.)
