Members LeClerc Posted May 16, 2012 Members Share Posted May 16, 2012 Dave Ryan joining Days as a (if I'm reading it correctly) breakdown writer is what stands out to me. Pretty lucky break for someone who has only written a handful of GH and AMC scripts and who, I believe, doesn't have a past with Tomlin. I thought his AMC scripts were pretty good, 2nd behind Kate Hall in quality. Is there any past Tomlin/Melissa Salmons connection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted May 16, 2012 Members Share Posted May 16, 2012 Toups: Spill the beans on the one non DOOL tidbit.. Is Meg Bennett joining Y&R? Has Hoagie hired Judy Donato as a scriptwriter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 17, 2012 Author Administrator Share Posted May 17, 2012 I found that odd too. Tomlin usually hires people he worked with before or promote from within. Maybe they have the same agent. I don't believe they worked together before, unless I'm missing information from their credits. But they probably know each other from working in the industry for such a long time and maybe Tomlin's always wanted to work with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 17, 2012 Members Share Posted May 17, 2012 Honestly, this is how it SHOULD read: Gary Tomlin Christopher Whitesell Meg Bennett Michelle Poteet Lisanti Fran Myers David Cherrill Carolyn Culliton Richard Culliton Judith Donato Courtney Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dc11786 Posted May 18, 2012 Members Share Posted May 18, 2012 I think Christopher Whitesell and Melissa Salmons worked together on "As the World Turns." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted May 18, 2012 Members Share Posted May 18, 2012 Melissa was on staff ((I believe) of ATWT when Broderick was HW. Melissa has a stellar reputation and spent years at GL and may have been at GL when Broderick was working with Demorest/Curlee. Salmons also did a stint at AW at the end as a script writer with the Cullitons. The Cullitons probably got her the job; they probably got Iacubuzio back too. Janet has followed or worked with the Cullitons for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members John Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 Why did days drop Nancy Williams Watt? I know Melissa & Janet from OLTL, they are good but so was Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted June 7, 2012 Members Share Posted June 7, 2012 Happy for Jeff Beldner. He wasn't all that great of a script editor at AMC but I think he did a good job in his other positions. If he is replacing Whitesell then I'd say it's a net plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members glatwt Posted June 7, 2012 Members Share Posted June 7, 2012 yeah im real bummed that Watt and Rich were let go from DOOL. when does Tomlin and Whitsell's material start and are MarDar staying on the team or are they gone completely??

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted June 7, 2012 Members Share Posted June 7, 2012 Marlene and Darrell are completely out. I think Tomlin & Whitesell's material first starts on July 25th because that's when Christie Clark and Patrick Muldoon last air on DAYS. Christie said in an interview that her last episode was written by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
