Members sema608 Posted June 13, 2007 Members Share Posted June 13, 2007 ICAM. Hogan's the reason I'm actually giving Days a chance. If he goes, then I'll most likely quit Days. The writing is only good due to Hogan. I have confidence in him to bring Days to being one of the top 3 soaps. He's writing powerful current/future couples (Nick/Chelsea, EJami, etc.). That will be lost if he goes. I see he loves these two couples individually and together. The writing showss it. Not only that, but I'm actually watching EVERY scene. Again, they are crazy to let Hogan go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rudolpho Meradi Posted June 13, 2007 Members Share Posted June 13, 2007 I wouldnt exactly agree that Sheffer writes powerful storylines for Lucas/Sami/EJ and Nick/Chelsea. As a matter of fact, I think Sheffers writing for those is very weak. Instead of making them interesting, he has made them really annoying and boring.

Members PhoenixRising05 Posted June 13, 2007 Members Share Posted June 13, 2007 It's cool it will be downloadable. I hope it doesn't hurt the ratings. I think the more things like this are used, the moe the ratings get stretched out. Either way, I think networks have to adjust their expectations of neilson ratings with so many new ways to watch things now. I hope it's Ed Scott going to Days. I doubt Hogan is out. I read his SOD interview and it sounded like he is making plans beyond summer. I took the wording of this article to mean an EP would go and that means goodbye to Wyman. I had a feeling Wyman had more control recently. Corday used to do the same thing with Langan. It's why he never knows what to say or what is going on. He doesn't lie...he just doesn't know. I think he is out, which is good if the SFX get canned. I like Beth as a writer but as a EP full-time? I don't know. She's great but tad overrated based on her 2 month stint recently IMO. I still like Ed Scott. Hell, I would make Sheri Anderson a EP before Beth. I am sure it could be Wyman gone and Scott in due to the Sony connection but we'll see. The new daytime exec for Sony worries me but I am happy Sony is trying to stay in soaps and is trying to make things better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 13, 2007 Members Share Posted June 13, 2007 Ed Scott's like 66, I remember hearing he's like 15 years older than Melody, who is 51. So, if any predictable announcement is made on his part, it's probably about his retirement. Not to mention, everything has been rumors thus far about his departure from Y&R and he is still credited on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rudolpho Meradi Posted June 13, 2007 Members Share Posted June 13, 2007 Which interview? Has Sheffer done a new interview recently? I want to read it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted June 13, 2007 Members Share Posted June 13, 2007 I don't know if the new one exists, but if it does, that's the one I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dawn9476 Posted June 13, 2007 Members Share Posted June 13, 2007 I agree letting Hogan go is not the answer. I know a lot of people think he is the worse HW ever but if you watch mulitple soaps and compare him to other HW's, you know he is not the worse. He doesn't even come close to being the worse.

Members Ilovemydays Posted June 14, 2007 Members Share Posted June 14, 2007 Steve Kent to head Sony suds Exec tapped for daytime dramas position By MICHAEL SCHNEIDER Posted: Mon., Jun. 11, 2007, 8:48pm PT Sony Pictures TV has tapped Steve Kent to head its daytime dramas as senior exec vice president of programming. Kent will oversee Sony's "The Young and the Restless" and "Days of Our Lives," as well as program extensions, and develop new serialized skeins.
