Members R Sinclair Posted September 29, 2007 Members Share Posted September 29, 2007 Marla Kanelos as associate head writer? Did she replace anybody? Chip "Zarf" Hayes, please? (Amanda Beall would be too much to ask for). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PAsoapfan Posted September 30, 2007 Members Share Posted September 30, 2007 Marla didn't replace anyone she wrote both the Breakdown and the script on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted September 30, 2007 Members Share Posted September 30, 2007 If she was signed as both Assoc. and Breakd. than she must have replaced someone... she was always ONLY script... and now she's ASSOC. too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members R Sinclair Posted September 30, 2007 Members Share Posted September 30, 2007 So she wasn't listed as an associate head writer -- she just, presumably, wrote the breakdown. But, then again, I wouldn't be too trusting of the AMC Chyron department, considering Joanna Bugler wrote a script this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted September 30, 2007 Members Share Posted September 30, 2007 I know this, but usually, they air the other assoc. writer along with the script writer, and this time there was only Marla Kanelos. I though the same too, but Toups said Marla wrote both Breakdown/Assoc. We'll have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted September 30, 2007 Members Share Posted September 30, 2007 Maybe Marla is "auditioning" to be an associate head writer, and since she's already a scriptwriter, she just wrote the script to her own breakdown. Like I said, she wasn't listed with Walsh, Hayes, Demorest, Patrick and Beall, so it's not confirmed she actually IS an associate head writer. She probably just pitched the episode, wrote the outline and did double duty by writing the script -- since the breakdowns are written in advance to the script. But I really don't see why AMC needs SIX associate head writers. I can testify that they need NEW associate head writers (and script writers), but adding yet another makes no sense. Unless they're making room for Kate Hall as a contracted script writer, then they would need to move Marla up. But again, since she wasn't credited as an associate head writer, I'm reluctant to view her as such. We'll just have to wait until Monday's episode to see if she is listed. But considering Beall, Hayes and Kanelos all worked under B&E and JHC, I wouldn't be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members heatherwebber Posted September 30, 2007 Members Share Posted September 30, 2007 Marla used to work for Lynn Latham on Wild Card. Maybe they worked on Port Charles together too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kubla Khan Posted October 1, 2007 Members Share Posted October 1, 2007 They did. Remember: Marla used to write breakdowns at AMC in 2004. She left for a bit and then came back as a SW. All My Children - Script Writer (March 8, 2005 - Present) - Occasional Script Writer (2004, 2005) - Associate Head Writer (June 4, 2004 - October 8, 2004) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted October 1, 2007 Members Share Posted October 1, 2007 Well, we'll see in 1 minute. If Kanelos is an associate head or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted October 1, 2007 Members Share Posted October 1, 2007 By the way, Toups' archive (a.k.a. The Bible) reads the 9/25 episode of AMC as having the script written by Courtney Bugler -- didn't it read Joanna Bugler on screen? Did I miss something? How was that determined?
