Guza's reasons for the story are independent of its potential. His sensational tendencies have nothing to do with Marlena's claims that this particular tale could ruin soaps' traditions and hurt the whole genre, along with more nonsense about passifying viewers who happen to be parents.

Ryan, I don't think I'll be able to call in because I'm going out tomorrow, so I'm typing my question here. Pretty please ask it! I know it's a bit harsh, but I tried to be respectful and I'm speaking the truth for many ATWT fans. If by chance Chris Goutman and Jean Passanante listen to the interview, I want them to know what fans are thinking.

QUESTION:

I've been watching ATWT for years and I don't even recognize the show anymore. I understand you aren't Headwriter and have only been with the show since last year, but I hope you can still address my question.

The majority of fans and critics have been disappointed with the show's uneven quality since Jean Passanante arrived as Headwriter. Storylines are always isolated, vets are rarely used, there is no diversity, the storylines are outlandish and constantly re-write history and most disturbing--the writing for women is extremely misogynistic. Honestly, is there a single female character on the show that isn't crazy, a whore, desperate to be saved by a self-righteous male or obsessed with a baby? Well there's Margo, but she never gets a storyline!

My big question is, do you guys consider what fans and critics have to say about the show? Fans are growing more angry by the day, most recently by the firings of Scott Bryce and Cady McClain. Do any of you recongnize that the current vision isn't working and will you guys be working to improve things post strike? I don't see ATWT existing five years from now if things continue on their current path.
