Members bellcurve Posted February 7, 2011 Members Share Posted February 7, 2011 Thanks for finding that. That article had a little too much Scrubs spin for me, but nonetheless some interesting tidbits, like the budget cuts. It makes me wonder what ABC is going to do in lieu of the reruns to shrink the budget. Are they still going to cut episodes and replace the episodes with primetime reruns and non-soap material? Guess we'll have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 7, 2011 Members Share Posted February 7, 2011 When will Susan Dansby's episodes air? Or have they already. I only ask because it seems that they're actually using Sofia (who is BLACK) in a storyline, which is so unlike them...So I wondered if this had anything to do with her.

Members R Sinclair Posted February 7, 2011 Members Share Posted February 7, 2011 Y&R tapes approx 4 weeks before air... and scripts are usually written 2 weeks before that (although, Y&R's schedule could be different). But Susan Dansby's trial was announced a mere 4 weeks ago, so maybe another 2 weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted February 18, 2011 Members Share Posted February 18, 2011 Ummmm I thought this was rather surprising (apologies if this is old news), but the new SOW is reporting that Christopher Whitesell is out at DOOL. It's not clear from the blurb whether he was fired or left of his own choice, and SOW did not know at press time whether he will be replaced or whether Higley will go solo. But here's the (potentially) even more interesting part: "As for where Whitesell is headed...? Don't be surprised if he pops up somewhere else!" I thought Chris and Gary were inseparable!

Administrator Toups Posted February 18, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted February 18, 2011 Aw man, I was going to post about this today! Oh well. It definitely wasn't Tomlin's decision to fire his BFF. Higley solo is scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted February 18, 2011 Members Share Posted February 18, 2011 My prediction is that Whitsell will end up at Y&R. Sheffer spoke very highly of him to Branco (even dissing Higly by saying Whitsell was the HW of DOOL). Maybe Richard Culliton will become involved with story. I'm sure someone on DOOL staff is being upped...otherwise they wouldn't bring in Iacubuzio to write scripts. I wouldn't be surprised if Higly goes too. As for Dansby, she announced on Twitter earlier this week that she just got her first assignment this week and that it would air in about 8 weeks.

Members LeClerc Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 In other Chris-related news: Christopher Dunn now has himself listed on his Facebook page as writing for Days of Our Lives beginning this month, and lists his AMC job as ending this month.

Members Sylph Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 LeClerc, how many writers have you befriended on Facebook?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 Actually not many (although even 1 is probably far too many by any normal person's standards lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 22, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted February 22, 2011 Well there goes one of my March teasers! LOL Dunn will be filling Whitesell's spot on the breakdown team and is another ex-Sunset Beach writer that Tomlin brings in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 Wow lots of stuff going on w/AMC's writing team lately. So should we be on the lookout for someone to replace Dunn on AMC or no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted February 22, 2011 Members Share Posted February 22, 2011 You shouldn't sit on info then Toups lol. Given that Tomlin seems to have total say on the staff writers, I don't get why Whitesell was fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 22, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted February 22, 2011 Sometimes I have to. I can't spill everything right away. LOL Sometimes stuff happens when someone can't save you. It certainly wasn't Tomlin's decision to fire his close friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
