Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 I blame MADD for any bad storylines Leah wrote at ATWT. Her tenure at DAYS was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Not her solo stint alone, when she was rehired back into the ATWT staff in 2005, there was almost an immediate drop in quality. I say ATWT rehires Lorraine Broderick and pair her with either Peter Brash or Richard Culliton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 but what was Leah really doing when she came back? Co- Head writer? Jean was the Head writer. The drop was already happening, it was just a coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 I wouldn't mind a Peter Brash/Richard Culliton pairing in HW's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Now Lorraine Broderick, should go back to OLTL with Chris Whitesell, as well as Richard Backus, and Liz Page. ATWT reunion, with Culliton!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Leah was also the main head writer of AW, during its last year. Jean was her co-head writer then. Needless to say, the show wasn't very good then either and the majority of the blame should be placed on Leah for that. Jay, Leah and Jean were also co-head writers of OLTL at one point in the 90's and that stint was considered a total flop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 I know Alvin, thats why I asked who the HW of ATWT was. Leah is only bad with Jean. They are poison. Leah Laiman still has it, I believe. Let Jean run ATWT by herself, and maybe it will get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 There's bad blood between Broderick and Frons. When he demoted her from OLTL in 2003, he asked her to go back to AMC and head write there, she apparently refused and told him to go to hell. I wanted Broderick back at AMC for the longest, but that will NEVER happen. Broderick was also quite good at GL when she was rehired there as an associate head writer in 2005. When she left, I noticed the show dipped a lot on quality. She was also the last head writer I truly loved on ATWT. She accomplished a lot of work there and definitely cleaned up the mess Stern and Black, and Klein made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Maybe I'm blinded because I want her back, but if Ron ask her, maybe she will do it. To be a HW, you go through Frons, to be a breakdown writer, you go through Ron and sometimes Frankie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Was there a head writer you've liked on ATWT, besides Marland, during the past 15 years, Ron? LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Umm...I liked some of Lorraine Broderick's work. But not all of her work. I loved Hogan's first year of ATWT. The rest was blah. I enjoyed Richard Culliton's HW stint back in 95. So to your answer Alvin ....Yes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 ^You have Culliton, I have Broderick. LOL! Culliton's head writing stints have always left a lot to be desired, he is very hit and miss - not too consistent. He's a much better script writer than head writer imo.

Members Soapsuds Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 Why does your first comment sound so Cher?...LOL.....Sonny: I got you babe........Cher: I got you babe Yes, Culliton was heat and miss during 95 but much better than Jean. Jean is all miss and never a hit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members winterguy125 Posted August 12, 2007 Members Share Posted August 12, 2007 I think I have a great idea for ATWT- Megan Mctavish as HW and Dena Higley and JER as CO-HW and even if that happened it stil would not be as bad as JP has done to ATWT. BTW I am joking and I never want that to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
