2007: The Directors and Writers Thread

[JAS0N47]

With Brash and Neckels' departures last week, there are only two holdovers left from Reilly's tenure...Jeanne Marie Ford and Jodie Scholz.

If the new HW of AMC wants to revamp the writing staff there are many experienced Y&R and DAYS cast offs to chose from!

From DAYS:

Anne M.Schoettle

Hannah Shearer

Sofia Landon Geier

Michael Slade

Bruce Neckles

Peter Brash

Rick Draughon

[s.W.S.N.B.N.] (although for just two episodes plus some story ideas)

Renee Gordelia

I know I left somebody off.

Anybody want to try a list of discarded Y&R writers?

[Adam]

If Kay Alden gets the AMC job I expect alot of Y&R writers to come on board.

Tom Casiello is gone from the DAYS credits today.

[brimike]

it must be a temp thing. he was off one day last week too, but then came back. weird.

Cydney Kelley wrote today's DAYS script. She was a part of the writing team in 2002. She is an addition who knows the history of the show.

The writing team of 2002 was nominated for a WGA award.

This is the team she shared the nomination with

Thanks Oakdalelover, I was just about to ask who she was. I think her last name is Keeley though, I had to do a double take, rewind my tape and put it on slow mo just to make sure. At least she has worked for DAYS in the past and I thought 2002 rocked for DAYS, so hopefully she is an asset to the writing team.

[Toups]

I was wondering when CK or Joe Stemmer (they're writer assistants) would get a shot at writing scripts.

Yeah, CK has history with the show, so at least she's not entirely new.

ATWT scriptwriter Judith Donato was listed with the DAYS scriptwriters today. She was also in the credits today for ATWT.

My question is this: if Hogan wants to bring some more of his ATWT pals over to DAYS,why can't he take Jean???

We will gladly let him have her!

[Sylph]

I can't wait to see all the AMC comings and goings.

[Toups]

When is he going to steal CCulliton from OLTL? That is the question.

I hope JD is good.

[ClassicsSoapFan]

If anybody stole Carolyn Culliton from OLTL I would like it to be her husband Richard if CG would just wake up and make him Head writer!
