Members RavenWhitney Posted March 11, 2017 Members Share Posted March 11, 2017 Well, we know she's written through May. She'll last at least a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted March 11, 2017 Members Share Posted March 11, 2017 You keep trying to perpetuate the lie that JFP had great ratings. No, she did not. Stop lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted March 11, 2017 Members Share Posted March 11, 2017 Well it's looking like some of JFP's old writing hires are getting the axe slowly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GMac Posted March 11, 2017 Members Share Posted March 11, 2017 I noticed that, but they're hanging on to Tracy Thomson. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted March 11, 2017 Members Share Posted March 11, 2017 Yeah, one if the guys let go was on a twitter sympathy tour yesterday. Boyd, I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted March 11, 2017 Members Share Posted March 11, 2017 Perhaps her contract isn't up yet. So far, I've been dissatisfied with SS's work, but I'm willing to wait and see what happens as they reconfigure the writing staff. Part of the problem, after all, could be that we have writers on Y&R who don't know how to work in her style (if she has one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soaplovers Posted March 12, 2017 Members Share Posted March 12, 2017 Im thinking thomson still is under contract...and maybe she's being kept as sort od aconsultant to let sussman/Alden know whats being going on the last few years.

Members edgeofnik Posted March 13, 2017 Members Share Posted March 13, 2017 I hope something impactful happens soon. The show is really boring and incredibly uneven. And if the twists for Chloe are true, we are truly no better off than when Pratt was in charge. At some point, the ratings will matter. They plummeted on POP and I'm guessing that DVR and streaming numbers are doing the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soaplovers Posted March 13, 2017 Members Share Posted March 13, 2017 Here is a link to the 3rd page of the Generarions message board...two posts have old articles from SOD..one from fall 1989...and one from the best/worst 1990. The fall 1989 artixle said that the show spent too much time telling instead of showing....and lots of talking and no action. However, by 1990...the show dound its footing. Maybe someone should show Sussman the article...as a reminder that its great to reestablish character/motivation..but that there has ti be action mixed in. Balance is keym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted March 16, 2017 Members Share Posted March 16, 2017 Pratt is available again. Please register in order to view this content He just stepped down as showrunner for 'Star.' Fortunately he will never return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ChitHappens Posted March 16, 2017 Members Share Posted March 16, 2017 We can't say he won't return because the revolving door of hacks is never ending. All of these recycles hacks, especially with Days. No real money is going into soaps. If Angie is desperate enough, UpChuck will be back. However, if ABC were smart (but they aren't), they'd get rid of FrankenJelly and bring in Pratt. That would save a ton of cash and who cares about quality? Certainly not ABC!

Members RavenWhitney Posted March 16, 2017 Members Share Posted March 16, 2017 Hasn't Sally been fired yet. LOL. The show is not getting any better and we are now into her fourth month! What were they thinking when they approved this Ravi character and the actor. I'm all for diversity but this isn't the way to do it with one of their most under used leads. Those opera scenes were awful. And the more I think about the Jack/Gloria story, the more I want to pan it. I'm not a Gloria hater at all and was glad they brought her back, although JC was rusty (but has improved). But Sally cavalierly has Jack fall off the wagon as an excuse to get him to sleep with Gloria but he's not concerned about it at all, has no ill effects etc. After all the layered storytelling they've done with his struggles, this is beneath the character and the actor. Terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
