Members Adam Posted May 18, 2008 Members Share Posted May 18, 2008 Oh but we must hear it from Toups for it truly to be fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted May 19, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted May 19, 2008 DAYS: - Bettina F. Bradbury last listed as Script Writer on May 16 They brought her back to only let her write one script which was on her last day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 Probably a contract issue... Don't know exactly... Such a shame, really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 19, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted May 19, 2008 Out of 18 episodes, she only gets 1 episode? Dena dissed her on purpose. Whatever, I doubt Bettina even cared. It's not like she wanted to work for Dena anyway. She's probably happy to get out of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 Wasn't Bettina F. Bradbury at OLTL briefly during Dena's tenure there? There's probably some bad blood.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 Oh, Dena so did it on purpose... But I meant, maybe her contract was about to expire somewhere before the strike began and then when it did begin, the contract was "frozen" and what was left for her to fulfill was to be fulfilled after the strike... I explained this horrifically, here's what I'm referring to: I hope Bettina pops up somewhere else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 I thought you weren't particularly fond of her work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 I only said she was hit-and-miss. At times, her scripts were frustrating, at times good. And I somehow feel the need to show some solidarity. That's just not a way to fire someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 19, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted May 19, 2008 Well, I don't know for sure if Dena did it on purpose. I'm just speculating based on history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 Judging by the rest of the things she did, it might well be the case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 I missed the boat some pages back. Since when is Richard Culiton out at ATWT? That's awful. I'd love to see him come back to AMC and write some scripts, or perhaps he'll head to the Ron love in at OLTL with his wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 19, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted May 19, 2008 I posted a few weeks ago, Adam. Goutman fired him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 Goutman won't rest until ATWT is 6 feet under I guess.... Richard won't be unemployed for long. One of the best script writers in the history of the genre for me anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted May 19, 2008 Members Share Posted May 19, 2008 Funny thing is, Sylph, not every writer at every show got that extension. There was a lot of picking and choosing over whose contract would be extended, and whose was picking up where it left off when the strike started. Nothing like pouring salt on the wound...
