They Gave Pizza The Boot

EXCLUSIVE!

[Blind Gossip] A major personal conflict on the set of this prime time network TV show… has resulted in one of the stars getting fired!

Two of the female starssimply could not get along.

We’ll call them Sweety and Pizza.

The problems started a couple of years ago and spiraled from there. [Sweety] wanted to be treated like the female lead because her character was more important.

However, she felt like [Pizza] was constantly trying to undermine her, her salary, her story lines, her number of lines, etc. She decided she didn’t want to share any more scenes or dialogue with [Pizza].

Since [Sweety] actually does have the bigger role, which gives her more pull with the network, the writers rewrote scenes to keep the two of them apart.

Long story short, despite these efforts, the tension and constant rewriting got to be too much for everyone. Producers decided it would just be easier to give Pizza the boot.

The decision was made and the writers reworked the story lines to get rid of [Pizza]. She will be exiting at the end of this current season. They will spin it to say that it was her choice to leave, but it definitely was not!

In our experience, the drama and trauma of ousting one of the stars of a successful show is usually over with in a flash. As long as the writers are good, they can exit a problem actor and their character without the fans being any the wiser.

By the way, the show’s titular lead is male. He is not involved with this.

    Clues: Sage for pizza? FNL for Adrianne?
    Seth MacFarlane always sleeps with young cast people anyway

  3. TV Show: The Flash
    Sweety: Candice Patton
    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker
    Lead actor: Grant Gustin
    Clues: within a flash

    • oh wow! candice = sweet (like candy), panabaker = pan, baker = pizza

      damn, lol good job!

  4. Show: Brooklyn Nine Nine
    Sweety: Melissa Fumero
    Pizza: Chelsea Perretti
    Lead: Andy Samberg

  5. TV Show: The Flash
    Sweety: Candice Patton
    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker
    Lead Actor: Grant Gustin
    Clues: “over in a flash.” Also recently Danielle posted a pic of herself eating pizza and she bought the writers room pizzas a few months ago.
    Optional: A smart move by the producers. Danielle’s character is the weakest part of the show and it’s so obvious that she’s wanted role as lead actress since day 1. Plus Candice unfollowed her on all social media a while ago.

  6. TV Show: The Flash

    Sweety: Candice Patton (Iris)

    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker (Killer Frost)

    Lead Actor: Grant Gustin

    Clues: Over with in a flash…

    [Optional] Smart move by producers?

    No. We need more strong women in these super hero shows. Boo.

  7. Tv show: the flash
    Sweety: Danielle panabaker
    Pizza: Candice Patton
    Lead actor: Grant Gustin
    Clues l: within a flash
    Bad move by producers, both characters too important

  8. The Flash
    Danielle Panabaker/Candice Patton
    (I don’t know which one is ‘Sweet’ or which one is ‘Pizza,’ the one that’s leaving, as I do not watch the show.)
    Grant Gustin
    “…with in a flash.”

  9. TV show is Westworld

    Sweetie: Evan Rachel Wood

    Pizza: Talulah Riley?

    Lead Actor: Jeffrey Wright?

    Clues: the related blind was about Elon Musk, and since his ex is an actress, it made sense that she was involved in this blind. Sweety = Sweetwater, the name of the town Westworld takes place in.

    Optional: Smart move by producers? Yeah, I think so. Less tension on set will make for happier actors and other set workers.

  10. Tv show: The Flash
    Sweety: Candice Patton
    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker
    Lead Actor: Grant Gustin
    Clues: “over in a flash” pizza is Danielle’s “thing”

  11. TV Show: The Flash

    Sweety: Candice Patton

    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker

    Lead Actor: Grant Gustin

    Clues: “in a flash”, “pizza” the flash writers posted a photo of pizza that Danielle bought them before Christmas, titular lead – flash, etc.

    Brilliant move. The Flash has way too many unnecessary characters

  12. TV show: The Flash
    Sweety & Pizza: Not sure which is which, but one is Danielle Panabaker and the other is Candice Patton
    Lead Actor: Grant Gustin
    Clues: Pizza, over with “in a flash”

  16. TV Show: The Flash
    Sweety: Candice Patton
    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker
    Lead: Grant Gustin
    Clues: “in a flash,” the nicknames (Panabaker loves her pizza; she even posts pictures all about it. Sweety is likely a play on Candy, a nickname Patton has joked about before)
    Smart move? Definitely. There have been rumblings for years about Panabaker undercutting Patton and trying to steal the leading lady spot from her. Thus, I also can’t see how this is about any other show.

  17. TV Show: The Flash
    Sweety: Candice Patton
    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker
    Male lead: Grant Gustin
    Clues: “over with in a flash”

    Idk if it’s a smart choice. What I know is that these CW shows are full of drama

  18. the flash
    Candice patton
    Danielle panabaker
    grant gustin
    in a flash- their show is called the flash

  19. Assuming pizza is Danielle Panabaker and sweety is Candice Patton from the flash? Which would mean lead actor is Grant Gustin. Guessing based on the ‘successful show is usually over with in a flash’ and Danielle acting like liking pizza is a personality trait. If so, I’m glad! Danielle’s always seemed shady. 👀

  20. sweety makes me think cookie from empire but idk maybe gabriel sedeby (last name off). Terrance Howard the lead. I haven’t watched it in a while.

  21. TV Show: The Flash

    Sweety: Candice Patton

    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker

    Lead Actor: Grant Gustin

  23. Danielle Panabaker from Flash

    Pizza – “Pan-a-baker”
    Sweety – “Candy/Candice”

    Shame but the Killer Frost character had probably run her course anyways.

  24. Danielle Panabaker and Candice Patton from The Flash. I’m assuming Danielle is leaving, it’d be easier to write her character out than Candice’s.
    They’ve never seemed to get along anyway. In earlier seasons Danielle tried to push her and Grant’s character dating when no one else in the cast was

  25. Tv show: boardwalk empire
    Sweety: Cookie
    Pizza face: Naomi Campbell?
    Lead actor: Terrence Howard

    I haven’t a clue what I’m talking about as I have never watched the show-all guesses.

  26. The Flash
    Candice Patton
    Danielle Panabaker
    Grant Gustin
    Based on the words “in a flash”
    There has been other blinds about issues on the show…. Is it hormones, egos or do they all just hate each other. I don’t watch it anymore as I thought it got a bit rubbish so maybe just put it out of it’s misery, like the Arrow????

    • I’m not sure if they all hate each other, but they’re one of the most unenthused tv casts I’ve ever seen when it comes to their show. I’m sure it’s because previous show-runner, Andrew Kreisburg sewed seeds of discord, especially between Patton and Panabaker. He even reduced Patton’s role in the first ten episodes of the second season, even though she is the leading lady, and Panabaker was often seen as complicit by comments she made in interviews.

  27. Annabelle Attanasio, who plays security expert Cable McCrory, won’t be returning for the upcoming third season of Bull.

  28. TV Show: The Flash
    Sweety: Candice Patton
    Pizza: Danielle Panabaker
    Lead actor: Grant Gustin

    Smart move by producers? No, not at all! Danielle’s characters are WAYYY better than Candice’s. WTF?! They already ruined the show with Iris, they can’t write Killer Frost/Caitlin off.
    Plus, I thought that Carlos Valdes was the main character leaving the show at the end of this season. They can’t lose TWO main characters in one season.

    • If she was the better character the would have done what they could to keep her instead of sacking her cause it was easier.

    • This. I like Danielle Panabaker as an actress. Don’t watch Flash, so can’t speak to her efforts on this show; however, if she leaves, I will certainly give her next project a try!
