Members All My Shadows Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 I really have no reason to disbelieve any of that scoop! If anyone can sit here and claim that Ron was ABC's patsy in half the horsesh!t he's brought to daytime in the last 5 or so years, then they haven't been paying very close attention. His years of petulant, personal meltdowns on Twitter proves it. He wrote what he wanted to see, and as long as he had the rather devoted stans tickling his balls, he was good to go. He started smelling himself around the time of OLTL's 40th, and it was all downhill from there. To quote my freshman girls, "you couldn't tell him NUTTIN, girl!" No writer who is being pressured by the network to write stuff they don't want to write acts that biggity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 I hope Michelle Stafford gets her walking papers. She truly is a beyotch to soap fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Exactly. I'm sure there are many things the network or others infringed upon, which is the nature of the beast in this business. And I know he was blocked re: Luke and Laura. But I simply can't with people trying to tell me Nathan Varni or Frank are making Ron write for Donna Mills, Nina, Franco, Kiki and Denise. No sane network person is coming up with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Wow…it could have gotten worse?? Is that possible?? Cause it sure was one hot mess already with RC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SeanM Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 If they start working on August 10th, when will we see their material? I wonder what all that means for the cast. I hope they keep the vets and use them. Maybe GF has a good chance with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tylerbo20 Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Next headline will be Higley out Ron in at Days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 If they're smart, they'll know they need to shore up this major sea change with strong vets. As in, both Genie and Finola Hughes, both of whom I am worried about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 I just hope this isn't the end for Jackie Zeman. If it is, I suppose I should just be grateful she was brought back at all. It was more than I expected a couple years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Jackie Zeman isn't breaking anyone's bank! She's the least of my worries. You can always have Bobbie pop in, it's basically what she's doing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members titan1978 Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Altman is unspectacular and Passanante should never be a HW again. But Ron screwed himself and the show. I just hope they keep using some of the folks like Lucy, and drop the revamped OLTL trio. I'm cool with some new blood, just don't bury me in them. The cast and the show have lots of potential but these are not writers that excite me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Exactly! Me too. I was sure at least McPherson would be considered. Glad Ron's out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 I agree. Why is promoting not done more often? The two most recent times I can think of were Marlene and Darrell for DAYS in 2011 and Ron for OLTL in 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Altman and Passanante are mandate writers, they're going to write and execute the show the corporate suits at ABC wants them to produce, nothing more or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
