Members PhoenixRising05 Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 I agree Keith. I mean, he seemed so happy with them. It came out of nowhere. I think he said that the stories they were doing (like the big Hope is kidnapped umbrella story) were too costly. It just doesn't make sense. The ratings were good. days was challenging alot ofr #2 that year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Keith Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 Corday would have them change the story before he'd flat out fire them. Demote them. Whatever. Just look at Reilly (and no I'm not turning this into another 'Corday interfered and that's why Reilly sucks' or not debate, just making conclusions based on my own perceptions). Of course, NBC tied his hands, then. Something tells me this happened again. Maybe they didn't like something. Who knows. How the execs cared about something besides money, I'm not entirely sure. And I certainly can't think of something that would have offended them, but hey, I'm just a speculator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members billyjill Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 Somebody (here, I think) was saying (theorizing?) in passing once that B&C used the vets too much and it got too expensive and that's why B&C went ... but yeah its a good point, Keith, why wouldn't Corday just tell them to write them less? Maybe this is when NBC, for whatever reason (because they're stupid, I guess) demanded that Corday bring Reilly back. Higley just held down the fort until it was a done deal. If that was the case I don't know why they wouldn't let B&C stay until Hogan was ready, unless there was some timing misunderstanding ... I dunno, it definitely was a big WTF move.

Members aMLCproduction Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 i keep hearing about "the goop".... what is it? And Y did Corday fire B&C any way? They were great! Does any 1 have the ratings for their tenure? I think I read some where that Corday said B&C wrote expensive storylines and thas why they were kanned?

Members aMLCproduction Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 I am so glad to see all these folks that loved the B&C regime. I thought I was one in a few but as I read this post I am amazed again Kan any one tell about the ratings under their pen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JER Soaps Fan Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 Wow, I don't see Wills nearly as psycho as all of you do. First of all, about the basketball, am I the ONLY one who thinks "Days" writers were trying to make Willow hip by giving her a line that you ALL know a sane character would say on "Grey's Anatomy?" It's like when McDreamy said he wanted to be Meredith's knight in shining "whatever" after Meredith said something about not needing a knight in shining "whatever." Shawn (or whoever it was) asked if Wills was PG with his basketball -- all she did was turn it around to be sarcastic, or "whatever." Frankly, I thought it was cute! Also, I don't think Wills is a golddigger. I mean, I do, but I don't think she'd REALLY let Phil have her baby (if indeed she is pregnant). yes, she's always working an angle but we also see her softer side. For instance, she's paying for JED'S COLLEGE EDUCATION with her dirty money! That shows she has a heart. I'm convinced her plan is to get as much as she wants from Phil and then hit the road. She's proven she loves her family. She wouldn't sell her baby like that. I think the character is TOTALLY misunderstood by a lot of people in this thread.

Members JER Soaps Fan Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 Eh, lol, you could argue that, but I don't buy it. I just think "basketball" was used to suggest how big a pregnant belly is. It was a "Grey's Anatomy" kind of line. Shawn set Willow up, she took the bait and used it again.

Members Christian Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 Haha...Charity Rhamer. The most forgetable actress in the history of Daytime television...yet so many of us remember her. Charity was 1000 billion times worse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R!ck Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 I know everyone hated Rahmer, but she's not a bad actress. I blame the writing She was great on CSI a few months ago. At least Charity was campy and entertaining. Annie is just annoying and boring. She was also in the slasher B Movies Leeches, Cheerleader Massacre, and The Frightening and she playes the preppy cheerleader type to a hilt.

Members JER Soaps Fan Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 Wow, I couldn't disagree more! Annie plays the PERFECT foil for The Great Jay's Philip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members King Posted March 1, 2007 Members Share Posted March 1, 2007 I liked Rahmer, honestly. Not for DAYS, but on PSNS, she'd fit in really well. She's DECENT. Compared to some people on PSNS, she's friggin' Ellen Mirren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
