Now all the posts are gone

[Toups]

Well.....for those who thought 2009 was going to be calmer....it's not starting that way! LOL There's already been a flurry of action going on.....so let's get started for the January teasers!

- CBS: 2 Writers OUT

I'm sure you can guess which soap it is.........It's the show that keeps on giving (to this thread).


Let's see what 2009 will have in store for us!

[Y&RWorldTurner]

^Past Directors/Writers threads are achieved in the Profiles: Writers, Directors, Producers forum.

Anyone with any wishes for this year?

I hope Guza and JFP are fired at GH, and Goutman and Passanante are fired at ATWT.

I hope this is a more stable year behind the scenes for Y&R, and OLTL gets some decent dialogue writers as well, if possible.

[Toups]

My three wishes are:
- DAYS: Dena Higley last listed as Head Writer on..........
- GH: Robert Guza Jr last listed as Head Writer on........
- GH: Karen Harris and Michele Val Jean first listed as Co-Head Writers on.....

[YRBB]

- CBS: 2 Writers OUT
I'm sure you can guess which soap it is.........It's the show that keeps on giving (to this thread).

Yay! Hopefully two of the bad ones!

- CBS: 2 Writers OUT

LOL! I spoke too soon! Is Maria firing more scriptwriters? I thought she'd be happy with what she has right now.

I can't see Esser, Weintraub, or Eric Freiwald & Linda Schreiber going anywhere. Could she be getting rid of Amanda L. Beall and Melissa Salmons? If hope Salmons isn't out, I don't think her cycle is up yet, and she's written some very good scripts.

Hmm, if its not from the scriptwriting team, could Beth Milstein and/or Marla Kanelos be out? I doubt Natalie Minardi Slater would get fired.

When do you plan to reveal these teasers, Toups?

[detroitpiston]

I only have one wish, for Rebecca Taylor's sorry script writing ass to get pink slipped.

[YRBB]

Melissa Salmons? If hope Salmons isn't out, I don't think her cycle is up yet, and she's written some very good scripts.

I was thinking the same thing, too. Salmons I think is one of the main candidates and I hope she's not the one. IA she's turned in some very good stuff.

[Kyle]

Here are my wishlist for 2009

Michelle Patrick back listed as Assosicate Head Writer on.......
Julie Hanan Carruthers last listed Executive Producer on......


Let's have a good 2009!

[dmarex]

And so it begins.....

Hmmmm, I really hope it isn't Melissa Salmons that's out. When will we know who it is?

[RavenWhitney]

My guess is Jay Gibson and Scott Hamner.

[aMLCproduction]

Glad to see Diana Stanely going to Y&R will she be a script writer? I love her work. And Toups when u say writers are out do u mean head writers?

[oakdalelover]

My three wishes are:
- DAYS: Dena Higley last listed as Head Writer on..........
- GH: Robert Guza Jr last listed as Head Writer on........
- GH: Karen Harris and Michele Val Jean first listed as Co-Head Writers on.....

As I have already said in the 2009 wishes thread..........
OUT:
ATWT: Goutman,Passanante,Laiman and Simon out.
GL: Wheeler and the Gang of Four (the HW's out.)

IN:
ATWT:
Paul Rauch,EP
Lorraine Broderick,HW
Hal Corley,CO-HW
Susan Dansby,Script Editor

GL:
Millee Taggart,EP
Millee Taggart,HW
Richard and Carolyn Culliton,Co-HW
Jill Lorie Hurst,Script Editor

[LeClerc]

My wish is that Pratt does something with the AMC team. What a boring transition this has been.

Also: Hal Corely in at AMC, and Lisa Hesser out less than a month after she starts. Ideally she never starts at all.

[RavenWhitney]

SOW confirms Lisa Cozzate is in as a producer at AMC

SOW confirms Lisa Cozzate is in as a producer at AMC

Oh God, WHY?

[Sylph]

Since we're wishing upon stars, for AMC, I can't wait to see Toups post:

James Harmon Brown, Barbara Esensten last listed as Co-Head Writers;
Amanda L. Beall, Chip Hayes last listed as Associate Head Writers,
Courtney Bugler, Rebecca Taylor last listed as Script Writers.
Mike Cohen first listed as Script Writer

Even though I know Toups is a Beall fan -- oh hell, oh well!

WE'RE GONNA DO GREAT IN 2008!!!

I love this post!

Here's to a less hectic, but equally fun year. After the roller coaster 2008 was, 2009 can't be anymore intense, can it?

No, no, no! I want more backstage drama and more horrible writer hirings! Otherwise, it'll be a dull year! Here's to more Veronicas!
