Members DaysForever Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 Oh, trust me, PAsoapfan, she is GOOD. She only wrote for a couple of episodes on DAYS during the summer and they were INCREDIBLE. The dialogue was fresh and simply exciting. I loved it! I'm glad she'll be going to PASSIONS to wrap it up. As for her returning to DAYS, I'm also happy. She was great before and she certainly will be again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RionPassions Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 I hope she knows how to write in the Passions style. I'm worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane4life Posted February 5, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 For crying out loud, it's not like she's the HEAD WRITER. I'm sure Jim Reilly will make sure she sounds like the PASSIONS style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RionPassions Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 I certainly hope so. She'd better conform to his style and not try something crazy. She seems like the kind of person who'd be a Gwen fan. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Andre Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 Unfortunately, that is what will happen. There is only so much a creative mind can do in an environment like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RionPassions Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 [s.W.S.N.B.N.] had some of the craziest and weirdest ideas for Days of Our Lives..this woman has the potential to ruin Passions in its final months. If she wants to do her crazy-ass stories, she should save for it a "normal" soap like All My Children or Young and Restless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Brightside Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 Seriously? Could anyone ruin Passions even further than it is now? I'd be happy since at least with KB, you fans will get a good ending and not just some big cliffhanger that will never be resolved. I'd be so happy if she was joining a soap I watch. Get over and it and just be glad dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RionPassions Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 Be glad that she's going to turn Passions into a normal, boring soap and ruin it? I'm sorry, but I doubt [!@#$%^&*] understands the camp/satire aspects of Passions that are crucial to its character and identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane4life Posted February 5, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 Isn't James Reilly the Head Writer of PASSIONS? He's not going anywhere. GEESH. More than likely she'll be writing scripts and helping Reilly come up with new ideas. I don't see how she can change the show, theyre basically just giving her a job because she loves soaps.

Members juppiter Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 Why is it that [s.W.S.N.B.N.] can work on every soap opera within one year when it takes most soap writers decades to get around to all of them? I'll believe it when I see her *credited*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane4life Posted February 5, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 Unfortunately, I think it's because she's a "celebrity" outside of soaps and the other writers find their niche and stay there and mostly not known except by the die hard soap fans. If you go on "political" boards, "black books" boards and "Sudanese refugees" boards you will find them talking about KB for reasons having nothing to do with soaps and more about her books or her activism for Sudanese women. Anybody notice how she's all over the Jewish boards? Shes a big fan of Israel (obviously because of the war in Sudan). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JER Soaps Fan Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 I don't know, Rion. I'd die (in an undetermined mood) if, in the last month of "Passions," Theresa, Jared and Ethan had an agreement and set up an arrangement where they just all sleep together and live as one. Then to see people gossiping about it around town and then, on the final episode, at church, have Theresa see people looking at Jared, Ethan and her in the pew, with a disapproving look on their face, and then stand up and shout, "Yes, I'm sleeping with two men, and I LOVE IT!!!" Oh, the look on Father Lonigan's face! WHAT a way to end the Ethan and Theresa saga! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 If [!@#$%^&*] wrote for Passions, she would only be doing scripts most likely anyway. She would probably help JER's writing as she may improve on character development and the dialogue. Passions could use a writer to breathe some life into some of the characters in the last few months. It makes the stories more interesting and the bad stories more tolerable if you get better writing like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mason Posted February 5, 2007 Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 I just don't know if I can believe this. I really don't find it likely that anyone at NBC would give [!@#$%^&*] a job after what she said about them. And at PASSIONS, no less, where they really don't need her now that it's been cancelled. Although I do hope the part about her going back to DAYS is true. She did some good stuff while she was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane4life Posted February 5, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 5, 2007 What did she say bad about them? In her interview she said that "DOOL" is the best soap on daytime and she's pissed that Kevin Reilly is planning to cancel it. She only attacked Kevin Reilly because he said he's cancelling the show but he's supposedly not mad at her. What if they got so much mail agreeing with KB's view point that Reilly suggested the shows give her some work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
