You tryin to give me a coronary? LOL

I don't see that happening, my understanding is didn't JER like not being told what to write and what not to write? I can't see him cowtowing to Fronsie

I think that was true in the early and late '90s, but I FIRMLY believe JER gives into money now.

"Passions" viewers know there's a character named Judge Reilly on that show. He's a crooked judge who accepts bribes. JER has made it a point, on several occasions, to say, specifically, that Judge Reilly can be bought. He can sell out. I firmly believe he was trying to send a message to viewers that "Days" or NBC paid him to rewrite the controversial "Days" serial killer storyline so they'd all be alive, and that he just bowed to the money and allowed his first vision to be compromised.

So, if ABC offers JER the right deal, I could see him bending. That's what he's become.

Unless he and Frons see eye to eye on everything....

Frons would LOVE to have JER on ABC Daytime, IMO.

God, Kenny you're going to excite me to DEATH!

I'd LOVE it if JER came to work on my favorite soap.

McT has a proven track record with ratings. Save her early 90's stint with FMB (when AMC almost consistently ranked #2), she pulls a stunt, ratings go up for a week or so, the stunt is over, and she has nothing but boring filler in between. That’s what happened during her last two stints with the show. She brought AMC down to a 2.4 not too long ago. The woman is not good. We need someone with a clear vision for the long-term. We need someone that doesn't prop their pets. We need someone with some creativity. JHC needs to go, too.

First order of business:

Kill off the piglet, and serve the other characters a nice bacon and sausage breakfast. The baby stealing slut has eaten up way too much airtime.

Second:

Put Kendall's boney ass on the sidelines for a while.

It is a pretty bad day in soapdom when these two mediocre actresses have to keep a soap afloat.

I know...I know. Alexa is an amazing actress, and she is the reason AMC is still on the air. Whatever... Free the viewers please!

The new writer really has their work cut out because AMC is so messed up that even the ones McTrash treasure are a bunch of bores. This show needs some exciting characters, and no...not Colby and Sean. All of the characters, with the exception of Erica, are completely boring.

Zharf was supposed to be a good thing, but that was quickly ruined by the Piglet. How interesting is a town when one person's name keeps coming out of everyone's mouth?

I will end this by saying:

KILL THAT [!@#$%^&*] PIG! PLEASE!!!!!

Oh, I just KNOW you're not sending a veiled suggestion for the new head writer to kill off the one and only Babe Carey Chandler, as portrayed by the PHENOMENAL Alexa Havins!

The ratings are up because she pulled a gimmick out her ass just like she always does. She writes (wrote, Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee) plot point to plot point, with no thought to the fall out. Ratings will more then likely plummet after this week, it's her pattern. We're tired of her breaking AMC's foundation down one rewrite at time. She got what she deserved. I'm not sad. I'm not sorry. It should have happened last year. I hope the door hits as they're throwing her out it. Good riddance!

"Free the viewers ..."? Free yo MIND! Enroll in the Babe is Love Outreach Program.

"I don't see that happening, my understanding is didn't JER like not being told what to write and what not to write? I can't see him cowtowing to Fronsie"

No??? I could so see that perv Reilly doing alot of "things" for Fronsie, so Reilly just may be in. Reilly does not write at all, so he has plenty of time to be on his knees...

ANDREA

Oh, ouch! I don't know if I'd go THAT far, as to what you're alluding, ( :o ), but I think JER is an under-the-table kinda guy (money-wise). He said as much about his television alter-ego, Judge Reilly. I just know he was trying to send a message to his fans, that now, he can be bought -- just like Corday or NBC, or whoever, paid him off to rewrite the Salem serial killer story -- and make "Days" traditional again. You KNOW he didn't want to go there, especially since he was brought on to do the OPPOSITE!

Babe is not love.

Don't tell me he likes McTavish? LOL

LIKE McTavish?! I LOVE McTavish!

HER "AMC" is what finally got me HOOKED on this show.

She brought on the best mother-daughter soap duo EVER in Babe and Krystal.

She created the AMAZING character of Zoe/Zarf, the incredible and controversial potential romantic pairing of BARF () and she wrote this suspenseful and INTELLIGENT (and actually sensical) Satin Slayer umbrella story.

And once again, JR is the best bad-ass in daytime, Aiden is painfully HOT, as is Josh and, to a lesser extent, Del.

Then there's the "next big" couple, Annyan.

Let's not forget that PHENOMENAL Dixie is dead episode. Sad twist, but that was the best hour of daytime television, surely the saddest as well, in at least a year.

This soap is the best written, acted and produced of all on daytime, in my opinion. What is NOT to love?! :huh:

Actually, JER would be a step DOWN (if that's possible). Yes, he's that bad.

That can be debated. With just one incredible storyline (the man-woman Night Stalker),he has turned that show aroooooooooooooound.

You'd seriously hate it if Josh stayed? I wouldn't. I like Josh.

ITA! I LOVE Josh. Why should he go, when Josh is portrayed by a great actor, who clearly has the best body and posture of anyone in daytime?

Milli Vanilli's mom? No ma'am!

All she will do is have Erica Kane kidnapped by Bin Laden every 6 months and involve Ryan and every other male character on the show in a DL storyline. She'll make all the character's diva !@#$%^&*]es to the max.

Not to mention there will be a new library set with every single book being "Diary of a Lost Girl." Gotta sell them books, sister!

I'm sorry, was any of these things meant to be "bad?" Because Erica has been through almost everything as it is -- except for being kidnapped by a terrorist, to my knowledge. I like it! Talk about high stakes drama.

Babe is not love.

Ahem, actually, I believe that can be debated.

Eh, would depend how something like this was done. POD Erica would just whine and shreek at him the whole time. If it were the REAL Erica Kane, it would good drama. I'd rather her divorce her husband, tell her family to kiss off, get Enchantment back, find some stud boy toy , and start rebulind her life. Heck if I had my way, she'd charter a plane and be on top of David, I mean, visiting David, before any of use knew what hit her.

She totally needs Enchantment back! When she lost it and didn't even fight to get it back, that marked the beginning of her PODness.
