Members KLN Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 Well, JSF, for your sake, I hope that all of your wishes come true. I just can't see God answering a prayer about NBC's total demise, resulting in the loss of thousands of jobs... for your rejoicing, LoL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Andre Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 I'm willing to see where this goes. There are some very interesting Days ahead, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted January 11, 2007 Administrator Share Posted January 11, 2007 That is correct. SSM was already influencing the material that aired in October even though JER was last credited in late Nov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kylie Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 So if they cancelled Passions, canned OLTL or AMC for Days, and I don't think Days would survive the move (nothing against Days, I just don't see a netork jump and Fronsie control helping the show any)...then we'd lose three soaps, as opposed to just one?

Members King Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 Thanks, Toups. JSF, why don't you just pray PSNS doesn't get cancelled instead of praying for NBC's demise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitchapalooza Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 :lol: :lol: GMAFB! While PASSIONS has potential to CERTAINLY be better than it is now....the entire show (including over 80% of the actors) would need to be axed/fired/replaced for it to even touch most of the other soaps on the air. And even still, no amount of prayers in the world is gonna make that happen!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RionPassions Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 But see, if a writer like Hogan Sheffer came to Passions, he would totally eliminate the supernatural, the fun dream sequences (not the teasing or repetitive ones), and the campiness, and the dance numbers, and all the things that make Passions Passions. He would turn it into a boring Y&R clone or something, and make it super-realistic and basically trash everything that essentially makes Passions what it is.

Members Mason Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 Newsflash: JERk's already done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members King Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 The supernatural has been gone from PSNS for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RionPassions Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 So basically you'd want the new writer to further get rid of the supernatural, and Passions' other essential qualities? That's worse than cancellation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mason Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 Who said anything about a new writer necessarily getting rid of all that? Just because it wouldn't be JER writing, doesn't have to mean that they wouldn't/couldn't respect what PASSIONS is about. JER is not the be all, end all of PSNS.

Members Drew Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 why is it up to NBC to make a writer want to do well, and not up to the writer himself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mason Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 Exactly. Quality of storylines is the headwriter's responsibility, NOT the network's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Drew Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hogan sent three of ATWT's leading stars to a spa to get aged and experimented on. You don't know Hogan at all. Hogan is not a quiet story telling person. He tells big stories, big moments. He researches a show's background, and respects its identity for the most part.

Members Drew Posted January 11, 2007 Members Share Posted January 11, 2007 its like saying JER is the only one who can and has done supernatural. Dark Shadows ... Strange Paradise ... both 100x better than Passions ever was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
