It's just a damn f.ucking shame we don't have writers like this anymore - not that they would be allowed to thrive in this daytime climate though. JFP came back from a focus group and said Ellen Parker was not rating well, and that she wanted to do something with Ed... Once they knew they were going to lose Ellen Parker, they wanted to make it "count" and wanted to "blast the heart out of it." -
Nancy said Robert Calhoun was a gentleman and great. She said JFP was incredible and said she loved their writing. Said Jill was very invested, emotions ran high, but she loved working with her. Nancy said they did a workshop with Harding Lemay - said he was very literary, and always talked about writing soaps like a Victorian novel, lol.
-
Focus groups are never conducive for creativity. Seems like Marland was somehow involved on the backend when they first started. Stephen mentioned that P&G had Marland in the background telling them that Stephen/Nancy/Jim could really do the job well.
-
Nancy said she panicked when they heard they were being paired with Reilly, lol. She said JER had names for everyone and knew everyone in the industry. She was surprised they all worked so well together.
-
@Toups - Stephen said Reilly was hilarious, and the 3 of them had great chemistry. Nancy said JER had a great imagination, and he was great at running long-form story. She said he always helped them push the envelope.

She also wrote Josh and Reva's wedding. Nancy said she hated the story that they brought Roger back from the dead with, but said she was very proud of the cliffhouse scenes several years later. Stephen loved writing Blake seducing Ross. Nancy says she fought for Nia Long to be cast as Kat!
-
I didn't know their daughter is a writer too and works for Dick Wolf. Nancy said she watched GL, GH, AMC, and ATWT growing up. Stephen said he never watched soaps, lol.

Just started

So, I guess this may be the Hickman-era way of atoning for House of M, and possibly re-retconning Wanda and Pietro to being mutants and Magneto's children The Tragic Death At The Hellfire Gala Is Revealed As The Trial Of Magneto Begins
-
I was oddly surprised by how cute they are.
-
Frank Valentini as robotic as ever.
-
JMW’s reel in isolation is hilarious, but she won, so…
-
These lead categories are terrible, but reflective of how bad the soaps are.
-
Maurice Benard for the same performance he’s been giving for 30 [!@#$%^&*] years.
-
LOL at Y&R winning for writing.
-
Is Cady McClain the first actress to win 3 Daytime Emmy’s for 3 different roles? All in different categories too. I know Justin Deas has won for 3 different roles, but those were split between Lead and Supporting.
-
Sean Kanan with a tie only Liberace could pull off.
-
This feels cheaper than a 90’s cable access program. Fitting for what daytime television is these days though.
