Ok I have to admit from time to time I go to the soap writers FB pages I know of and stalk, ;-). Well right now I just went to Kate Hall's from AMC and saw in her employers section "ABC Daytime Script Writer - General Hospital". Now I swear that used to say AMC!! ;-(. If true, they're losing their BEST script writer!! Definitely a gain for GH.

Yeah she's at GH now - it was going to be in my August edition of "Inside the Writers Rooom."

Wow.

Awwwww man Kate Hall is AMC's best script writer. This is a definite loss for the show.

I'm excited! As far as ABC script writers go, GH has the best in Michele Val Jean, Mary Sue Price, Susan Wald and script editor Elizabeth Korte (politics aside). It's about time Kate Hall was in a group of talented writers as her colleagues.

However, I suggest Rebecca Taylor takes the money she's earned by monopolizing the script writing on AMC and go into early retirement -- or change careers.

OLTL:

- Daniel James O’Connor first listed as Script Writer on August 10

GH:

- Shelly Altman first as Associate Head Writer on August 10

Toups do you know if Kate Hall stayed with AMC through the end of its writing or did she leave early?

I don't think anybody left before the show was done writing.

So, when does Leah Laiman's name start appearing in the breakdown credits of OLTL to replace Altman?

Is Aida Croal gone....

They must be using interns now to save money...

ABC has always let writers within their development programs cut their teeth on ABC soaps.

Veronica Sandbridge, anyone?

I noticed on Monday, August 15th that Tim Stevens is now listed as Senior coordinating producer along with Janet Spellman-Rider on DAYS. Previously,he was listed as Coordinating producer. Was the 15th the first day he was listed as senior coordinating or did it happen earlier and I missed it?

Thanks for catching that! I went back and checked - Tim Stevens was first listed as Senior Coordinating Producer on August 8.

Thanks Toups, the 15th was the first day I caught it and I was wondering how long he had been there because I don't always pay that close of attention.
