This show is doing so badly right now, the writing is beyond awful. Is there any hope for a new writer and even a new producer to pull it out of its current grave?

On a side note is Viki ever going to get a storyline or a love interest as Higley has promised for years now?

Is there hope? No. If anything the show is structually in worse shape than AMC. First there is no suggestion that Dena and Frankie are going anywhere. So long as they are there there is no hope for the show.

For the purpose of discussion, what would happen if the three stooges were eliminated and they found some talented writer to save the show? What's left to work with? The Buchanan/Lords have been destroyed as a family. The Cramers are in only slightly better position considering the writing for Blair and Dorian and Adrianna may be the first unpopular member of the family to exist. The Mannings are in a state of disarray with Podd. The Vegas have had one failed story after another focusing on Antonio and Chris and all it's proven is that they are incapable of carrying story. The vets have been marginalized into oblivion only being trotted out as the furniture in the room. The characters who occupy much of the story time are devisive at best being as unliked as they are liked. They history of the show has been mangled. Then there are the rather mind blowing casting decisions with the hiring of actors who are talent challenged. OLTL has gone from having one of the most talented casts on daytime to one of the most questionable.

Even stopping the bleeding would be a challenge at this point.

Then there is the passive aggressive challenge to the long term fans of the show. They haven't only broken the trust with their fans but they've given them the finger and said we don't need or want you. Getting those fans back will be a challenge.

I'm not sure there is anything left to save. Jessica and Antonio are a disaster and there is no good way out of it. Kevin is gone. Kelly gave birth to Kevin's grandson. The Vegas being the stars of this show is a huge mistake. The over focus on the McBains.

I could go on and on. I don't see how this show can be salvaged.
