Please name one good story Jean Passanante is writing right now

Brad feels like an afterthought, doesn't he? It's like the show was so gung-ho on having yet another Carjack-plus-X triangle, that that's all they really care about. I don't know why either man is "attracted" to Katie. She's so blatantly insecure with Jack, and she's downright hostile and rude to Brad. I really wish they'd let Carly just go to town on that little Bitch, but you know they won't. Fluffy must be worshipped and right at all costs. If there's anyone who's earned a comeuppance, it's Katie. And you know it's never coming.

PJ this was an excellent post. You should seriously consider sending this exact post to the magazines(SOW). Just copy and paste it and send it by email. I will guarantee you it will be put on the next issue. I have sent one about ATWT and it was published....LOL. I hope you do send this off. :)

Haha...I laughed at the title of this thread.

This woman is the definition of what a hack is.

I asked in another thread, but I'll do it again. Does Christopher Goutman have the hots for Jean Passanante or something? He hired her at Another World, then when he became EP at ATWT, he tried to add her to the writing team before naming her Hogan's successor. I mean what does Goutman see in this woman? If it was any other EP, I'm sure JPiss would have been out on her butt as soon as ATWT fell out of the top 5(I'm not familar with ATWT's rating history, but where it is now is not good).

Her stories are all about plot, plot, plot, just like her fellow hack at ATWT's sister soap.

6 years later and now all of you ATWT fans know AMC fans pain :lol:

I am seeing the exact same style of storytelling here and have been seeing it for a year and a half. Does not make any sense and things are dropped like hot potatos and never revisited again. All the strong female characters have absolutely been DECIMATED!!!! And I mean completely hacked. Yoo got to seriously wonder however how much of this should be blamed on Goutman. Can he not see what she is doing to this show.

I think both of them should be taken out in one foul swoop. And try to save this show before there is no show to be saved because I am telling you, another year of this crap and ATWT will be dead.

As low as the ratings have gone and From all the out cry I really am surpassed that Goutman or even P&G or Bloom her self for that matter hasn't canned her yet. Instead we got Bloom writing breakdowns supposedly at Y&R. Hang in there Oakdale. Her day is coming. I said once before. AMC, OLTL, and ATWT all follow each other. I expect an announcement by the end of the year

YoU're right, but if she stays any longer I fear it could get pretty close to being as bad as AMC.

About AMC, I'm not sure who was writing, but I started watching in the middle of the Jake/Liza/Adam/Colby story, I was intregued by the guy who played Jake then. Just getting confirmation, but Passanante didn't write that story did she?

Do you mean Colby's paternity reveal.... or Colby's conception?

If it was the paternity reveal that was the writing team of Agnes Nixon, Jean Passanante and Elizabeth Page.

If it was the conception, it was Jean's cousin Megan McTavish.

    • Pleeeease I hope the writers have thought of this.
    • I want to see her doing brunch at the country club, flirting with the personal trainers and taking FULL advantage of all the perks while it lasts
    • It's on Prime too and Pluto TV. It's also available digitally.   The Blu-ray release has the movies that haven't been seen in HD, and they've corrected the premiere two-hour movie as it originally aired. The DVD and digital release use the syndicated split two episodes.   My maternal grandmother was a big fan of the show. I had no idea until later in its run.
    • Omg I didn’t even think about that she’d be beyond the gates doing his therapy! How exciting!
    • I assumed that Reva viewed Cain as someone she owed her life to since he was the one that helped save her during her attempted suicide.. so she felt responsible when he became ill. I imagine that Long would have used Cain as an obstacle/distraction for Reva as Kyle was working through his marriage to Maeve.  What interested me was that Fletcher/Maeve were tested earlier then I thought with his constant visiting Maeve in the hospital in December 1985... so possibly Long had it planned out that Fletcher would have been the right man for Maeve while Reva was the right woman for Kyle. Both Kyle and Maeve came from money... so I could see Long planning to ultimately pair them with opposites in a socioeconomical sense of the word had she stayed on. I certainly know had she been headwriting the show when Newman came back as Josh.. she wouldn't have quickly reunited Josh/Reva.
    • I could see where Kyle was intriguing for a hot minute, given that he was a millionaire with a secret grudge against the Lewises. But the entire premise for his grudge is stupid, and Reva's insta attraction to him doesn't fly.  I do think Reva needed to be separated from the Lewises, but she always comes off as a little lost without them, imo. I'm surprised they tied Kyle to them so rapidly. They could've drawn that story out for the entire two years Larkin was there.
    • If all true and this is the right leading lady, it may make sense why Kim didn't mention her by name, since Courtney passed away in Dec 2010, just under a year before the book came out in 2011. That would be the respectful thing to do, and it's not like Kim was shy about name dropping others in the book. All speculation though haha.
    • MSW streams on Peacock (for members), Tubi (for free), is on DVD, and is rerun on cable.... and I know a lot of young millennials/older Gen Z's that have recently been exposed to Murder She Wrote... and they love it. It's timeless.
    • Another example of the dysfunctional enmeshment that the Duprees labor under.   Dani freaking out about her father coming to visit as she's in bed with her boy toy totally screamed teenager instead of a grown ass woman that has two adult children.  The whole family needs to be in therapy including Nicole (who probably became a therapist because of the dysfunction within the family). @ranger1rgConsidering the fact that Chelsea has been controlled by a domineering Dani... I would be more surprised if Chelsea wasn't being extra and/or pushy.  She's spent more time being a model, having every move controlled by Dani, and being on social media as opposed to developing interpersonal relationships with her peers.
    • I agree. Every time she's on, it reads as "We're writing her in to fulfill her guarantee."
