Perhaps he's on his way back to Melrose Place. -

It's the most violent show on daytime TV in America. But frankly that bar is set rather low. -

It just sucks there's so little of AMC's core has left. But they can still bring in a few tentpole characters. If only Frons hadn't gutted so many of them.
Yes. Frons must be removed. Given his rumored love of Pratt I can't help but feel that a higher-up stepped in, higher but not quite on Sweeney's level. But that would beg the questions: 1.)Why hasn't this person stepped in before? 2.) Why do headwriters, breakdown writers with a sense/respect for history, and the occasional EP keep getting thrown under the bus while the "creative consultant" for all these shows is given more control and less accountability with each passing quarter. It's time to take a serious look at the ABC Daytime organization chart and the types of power that work there. -

I think AMC is now more and more of a GH clone. The main difference is AMC has no mob, but then, they don't need an official one thanks to Ryan, Zach, etc. Y&R is also similar to GH these days.
GH wants to be different, but really isn't. All the tough guys are really pouty little boys, never able to do much beyond feel sorry for themselves.
These differences only matter to people who watch soaps which most people don't. To the "outsider" like Franco, OLTL, DAYS and B&B are all the same. -

The Veterans Day holiday meant there were more people home last week. Something to keep in mind.
