Members Faulkner Posted May 23, 2007 Members Share Posted May 23, 2007 I read this over at WOST. Has anyone else heard that he's on his way out? If so, all the Bell holdouts are falling one-by-one. I couldn't imagine MTS being happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 Do the Bell's have any creative control left on this show? This is an atrocity. If its true. Melody Thomas Scott just re-signed for another 3 years didn't she? I am sure she has outs. She should just asked to be released then if this is what is going on because Latham clearly does not get Nikki's character at all. Can't you just imagine the turmoil if Melody walked off the set oooo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 MTS must be loving her current storyline! Who wouldn't? I know it's not exactly Nikki, but hell, it's one of the better storylines that she's had, IMO, and it's about time she was a focus again. Sadly, I'll take what I can get. At least she has a storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Josh Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 The eldest Bell child is employed with Sony I believe. Lee Phillip-Bell is credited at B&B: Director of Special Projects/Long-Term Story Advisor I would almost say that would be for Y&R as well!

Members Lucid Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 He is gone. Tony Morina is now a producer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 I just wonder if Melody will leave now, once this storyline wraps up....Didn't she leave or almost leave the last time this happened with her hubby. I say let her come to one of the ABC or Days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 William 'Bill' Bell Jr. is head of Bell Dramatic Serial which co-produces Y&R along with Sony and Corday... DOn't think that Lee Phillip Bell is still long-term story-adviser. Last time I read this was a couple of years ago. But one never knows since Brad Bell should talk to his mom every once in a while - one should guess. Even if she's a meddling mom like Stephanie Forrester. LOL! The Ed Scott-news blows. LML better keep MTS (although I don't care that much about her and/or Nikki) happy because otherwise she'll leave Y&R as soon as her contract is up, I guess. Y&R is now officially taking over by incompetent forces of destruction and will never be the same again. I guess my often used "threat" to stop watching this show is getting a clear end date for realization... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 She was very upset last time & just may walk this time given the new regime's various changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 ITA, sheilaforever. This show is horrible right now. It's never EVER been this bad. And given LML was handpicked by CBS she aint bein fired no time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 24, 2007 Administrator Share Posted May 24, 2007 Are you SERIOUS???!!! Anthony Morina is not even a contract director and HE is the one who gets promoted to Producer? What about long time directors like Noel Maxam, Sally McDonald and Mike Denney? I bet those three are pissed off. Wow, Y&R used to be a show where they promote from within and respect their long time crew. This is what happens when newbies run the show. Y&R has lost its roots and identity and history.

Members WillenFan21 Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 Yeah this is true. I just read it in SID. Here I just typed out what it says: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 Dear God! Y&R is falling down heavy! I'm glad it's happing now... it's time CBS realizes LML is doing sh!t out of Y&R. Too many people have quit working on Y&R and I think many more will. I hate this situation and the only thing I'd like it LML out of the way, and Trent Jones, James Houghton, Kay Alden, or someone else to return. If it's possible. If they don't fire LML by the end of 2007, I wouldn't be surprised if for the first time Y&R wouldn't be the leading soap opera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted May 24, 2007 Members Share Posted May 24, 2007 I tried to tell ya'll. lol LML/CBS is tryin to turn this show into a DOOL/GH clone. As if DOOL/GH are all of the sudden some kinda critical and/or ratings successes themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted May 25, 2007 Members Share Posted May 25, 2007 Things keep getting worse! Obviously they are pleased with Latham if they are still allowing her to fire everyone who knows the show. Since ABC foolishly passed on Kay Alden, they need to get her back. Sadly, Latham still gets lots of praise so despite the ratings tanking, she will stay. I hope B&B can pick up Best Drama/Writing at the Emmys. If she wins they definitely won't fire her.

Members Drew Posted May 25, 2007 Members Share Posted May 25, 2007 The last time she had her big contract dispute and was written out, not knowing if she'd be back, was actually when he was EP. She stayed when David Shaugnessy took over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
