Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted December 13, 2007 Members Share Posted December 13, 2007 Y&R and AMC especially have a long history of being nominated for writing awards. Neither show deserves it now, but on past reputation alone they're getting these nominations IMO. Very unfair.... Then again, I can't say any soap deserves any recognition for writing. Nothing on CBS, ABC, and NBC has been truly outstanding this year. GH deserves this award for having the best script and breakdown writers in all of daytime. Guza and Korte might be idiots, but GH's writing team is outstanding, more so than its competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sylph Posted December 13, 2007 Members Share Posted December 13, 2007 Surely, you're not serious! The sheer elegance and sophistication of Bugler's script is so evident! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted December 13, 2007 Members Share Posted December 13, 2007 Oh, are you kidding? With fabulous Bugler gems like this: Each grain of sand, individually, is very rough and hard and sharp and really not all that pretty. But when you put them all together, you get this beautiful beach, this beautiful, soft, smooth beach. So I guess what I'm trying to say is when things get crazy, we just got to put together the sand -- take our beach back. I love you, and I know that we're going to be able to stay on the shore. I know that no matter how rough the waters get, you just got to fight with me. How can AMC go wrong?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sylph Posted December 13, 2007 Members Share Posted December 13, 2007 I can't see the difference at all! I mean she even surpassed Zola, who faithfully copied his master's style! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 My head hurts from trying to untangle Bugler's beach analogy. Just what, pray tell, is she saying here? Is the speaker (Ryan?) attempting to compare his/her relationship to the beach, or to the water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Evan Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 No nomination for BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL? Brad Bell/Kay Alden/Patrick Mulcharey: unfairly snubbed in favor of mediocrity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ladybird Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 Wow, I am a longtime lurker, and while I have read of the hot mess that is apparently Bulger's scripts, I have never actually seen any of it for myself. This is sooo very bad; so incredibly heavy handed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 Even worse, I'd bet it was in the breakdown, too. "Take our beach back"? Are you kidding me!? Whatever happened to, "I'm not giving up on us...and I won't let you give up on us, either"? I mean, what the hell does Ryan Lavery (and I'm assuming it's Ryan, 'cuz no one else would say something that idiotic) know about a metaphor, anyway?

Members R Sinclair Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 See? Exactly! Exactly! That's one of the main things about that speech that makes no sense. Never mind that it's simply awkward and clumsy, and as ladybird said, "heavy handed" (don't get me started on when Bugler writes sexual innuendo), I still have no idea what it means!

Members R Sinclair Posted December 14, 2007 Members Share Posted December 14, 2007 Given to one of AMC's greatest thespians ever... Cameron Mathison. It was just a sad mess all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
