If you love Yeniffer Behrens...adore her character of Marianna, then we are asking you for help.

As we know, the writers strike is over and Bob Guza is back to writing for GH. The character of Marianna was made in his absence and he really knows nothing of her and the amazing story that we see unfolding for her and Ric. So we need to help him see the love story that is there and the incredible actress that they are so lucky to have over there in Yeniffer.

It means we need to write to Guza and we need to make sure that mail is going to Yen! We need to write to JFP, since she was there when the character of Marianna was created, and implore to her to speak up for our couple to get a chance. We need to make sure that Brian Frons knows we see such a positive change in Ric Lansing and it is due to Marianna and the incredible chemistry between Rick & Yeniffer.

Or maybe you do better on a phone call...then call the comment line. But remember these simple and easy facts:

• Only speaking of the positives for Marianna and Ric as a couple. Do NOT talk about any other pairings they could be in and do NOT talk about any other characters involved in scenes with them.
• Talk positively of Yeniffer.
• Keep it to the point. "I liked the scene with Ric & Marianna on this date because..." or "Yeniffer Behrens was really good on this day in this scene."

POLL LINKS

SID Poll. Yen is on there for the Best Actress, but Ric & Marianna are not on for couple YET.

(Yen is not on the SOD/SOW polls yet...but you can write and ask them to put her on there.)

Honestly, we want to focus more on the actual studio connection -- writing to Yen, Guza, JFP, and Frons. Calling the comment lines to talk about Yen and Marianna. Emailing Brian Frons about how much we are enjoying seeing Yen on our screens. It is more important to focus on that than the polls as they are really not as influential.

We can do it, guys! I think Yen deserves it, don't you?

Yes Yen deserves it. I actaully sent out an email this afternoon to all the mags. Here is what it said - simple and to the point.

"Yennifer is a refreshing actress on GH. She brings such fun to Marianna and because of that her chemistry with Rick Hearst is great. It is nice to see Ric Lansing happy for a change and that is due to having Marianna in his life. I hope this is just a start of what is ahead for this couple."

LOve you guys! Thank for the support!

Big hug,, Yen

:loved: We Love you too Yen and will do what we can to let everyone know this
