Oh at the end of the show? Because I just checked and it wasn't in the beginning on Monday ( which was the day I really disliked and felt like the dialogue was ectremely off as was the blocking and stage direction especially for Michael McBain) It was a writer that I had never heard of before. She threw me off but I already forgot her name LOL

OLTL's credits are listed as...

Created by

Agnes Nixon

Executive Producer

Frank Valentini

Written by

Ron Carlivati (HW)

Shelly Altman (BDW)

Janet Iacobuzio (BDW)

Chris Van Etten (BDW)

Victor Gialanella (BDW)

(Episode Script Writer)

Leslie Nipkow (Script Editor)

Hope this helps you to better understand the credit listings.

Some say that Gialanella & Higley are close friends, so if that's true, will Carlivati fire him, will he quit, or just stay put? How is he as a BDW, or a writer in general for that matter? I'm unfamiliar with Gialanella's work.

They are only doing this because it is the only way to get the audience to buy this sh!t. This case should not even see the inside of a courtroom.

And Rex's high and mightly attitude? Funny, he didn't feel that Todd was this monster when he took his case AND HIS MONEY. Rex changed only because he found out his friend had the kid. He then commits a crime, and no one has a problem with this?

Todd's NUMEROUS wrong doings does not validate Marcie and Michael's claim on that child. And Michael??? Who would want their kid raised by such a snatch? What kind of a man is he to stand there and allow everyone, BUT HIMSELF, to get their due? He is so opposite a man.

The only crumb the audience received was to watch John be suspended. That is all, and it was a very very very small crumb because Bozo was so regretful in doing his job... Moron!

This story sucks, and I just don't believe Marcie/Kathy could be any more annoying. It's just not possible - but we shall see!

I don't care for OLTL at all, but I wanted to see Rex get his. That won't be happening because of the way Rex is currently written. Ron is off to a loser start!

It matters not what was brewing between Todd and Spencer. The only important fact is that Todd did NOT give up his son. He had been looking for him. He then enlists the help of a PI who got his license from the inside of a Captain Crunch box. Todd is then led to believe his child is dead while Michael knows he has physical custody of said child.

No matter what Todd has done in his past, he is not WRONG here. This is one of the few times the man is not wrong. Even if Michael did not know the truth, he and Marcie still have no legal leg on which to stand. Todd did not give his child up.

This story REEKS of bad writing, and the biggest clue is what is being done to Todd in order to sell it. I saw that

. What kind of sh!t is that? It's only going to be used against him... Bad bad writing!

I don't care if Todd didn't give up the child... Blair didn't give hers up either, and he kinda did the same thing that Michael was doing (keeping a child from their bio parent). Todd is "evil," and he will always be "evil" because that's how he's written... but nine times out of ten, he ususally gets his way. And this won't be any different; because he will eventually get Tommy whether it's through the right channels or not, whether he should or not.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

      Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.

      Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be.

      I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here.

      It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.

      Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.

      I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.

      Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis.

      Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
