Liberty City

Considering we got a second season pickup, I'd wager they were happy enough with them. But again, we also have [potential/unconfirmed] ideas, as presented by Errol here: a.k.a., unless CBS states otherwise, we'll never truly know.

I feel like Errol has been pretty upfront in that it's demos that matter most to networks.

K. I might [finally] be good at locking into Coronation Street after many false starts. I'm beginning to feel a connection to [some] characters, and I can see the allure of the show.

Oh, of course; I only brought up Guza Jnr because many name Pratt⏤much like Phelps or Frons⏤and immediately discredit them, without any merit of the person's own résumé (which Thomson's speaks for itself).

Absolutely! And I am sure with them, per their own admission, using every cent of their previous budget is going to go a long way with the network/production, even in the budget reduction. From my experience (in a non-entertainment business, mind you), the less budget you use, the more that gets taken away the next time it comes around. So, them using their budget, I am sure, helped them out. And all of these make more sense than anything else that's been spewed as "reasons" elsewhere. But people will do what they do. And, like you said, if there were budgetary issues, etc., they would have course-corrected a while ago, and we would have likely heard about it. And the same would go with casting decisions, etc., despite what [many] think, as well.

This is why the modern age of social media, etc., is dangerous because everyone runs rampant with ideas as to why something is being done. "Oh, it's because of budget," "Oh, it's getting canceled," "Oh, that show is sucking," etc. It's a cesspool of false information being placed out there.

And she worked with Guza Jnr on GH for a time, so that's the likely connection to her coming into BTG. Perhaps he recommended her as his successor, and Val Jean felt comfortable doing that.

And it shows. 🤣

Thankfully. 🤣

Breakdown role, so same as the "writer".

I'm sad to see Gregori J. Martin exit his role as breakdown writer, because I've liked his breakdowns a lot since the series' premiere. But I understand his focus is on his own baby; perhaps he can come back as an alternating breakdown? I know that is unrealistic, but... it'd be nice. As for Tracey Thomson, I don't absolutely love it, but I'm having faith she was chosen as the writer person to continue bringing the best of the best this soap is capable of giving. Plus, given she worked with Robert Guza Jnr, I'm going to have faith she'll continue to bring something to the table.

I love her positive outlook on it; ah, Michele, never change! Please! I am trusting that CBS is doing what they feel is the right thing to do, whether it's agreed with or not. I'm putting my trust in them, the same way I have since the soap was announced.

YOU DON'T BUY SONNY FLIRTING WITH THE 1,000TH WOMAN IN THE WORLD TO FLIRT WITH?!?! WHY?!?!!? C'MON, THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO THINK [AGAIN]?!?!?! C'MON!!! DON'T YOU LOVE IT?!?!!?

It doesn't turn you on? You aren't into it? Does it get you HOT HOT HOT?!

I feel like they had a very specific reason for going to Georgia; I don't see them changing at this point. Especially since they looked for Georgia-based talent.

I don't think they'd do that; they very specifically chose Georgia, and considering [some] cast just moved their entire families to Georgia, I doubt they'd turn around and go, "Nah. Let's go back!"

Yeah; I'm not buying it one bit. She is not selling me on the story she's trying to give. And I don't recall any kind of "light" suit on Bill, but it suited him. And double-breasted suits him as a wider-built bodytype, as well.
