2008: The Directors and Writers Thread

[Toups]

OMG! Is that GladGirl??? Long time no see!

[Toups]

Well he's only written for a total of 7 months. I see greatness in him and time will tell if I can put him in the same category with my Reilly (to your Curlee and Marland). I loved Brad Bell before, but he failed me. I loved Guza before but he failed me also. So now it's RC's turn.

Word, Dan. He really loves and gets OLTL.

Toups, can you spill the scoops today, or do we have to wait until tomorrow?

[Toups]

EVERY SINGLE EPISODE? If so, then I'll be able to see more of my new crush - the bitch blonde bombshell, Clare Devine.

Is it July????

[Y&RWorldTurner]

You'll love Clare, she's deliciously psychotic. Gemma is leaving EastEnders at the end of the summer, but I doubt she'll go back to Hollyoaks (the door was left over for her though). Clare was heavily invovled with Max, and as you know, he'd dead now.

It will be in a few hours.

[Toups]

I know! I just watched the episodes where Clare, Max and Tom were at the cabin....and then OB comes in just in time to save Max and punches Clare. That was so good.

She's leaving EE already??? Why is she leaving? I hope she comes back to HO!

I'll post it sometime tomorrow.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

That was a brilliant episode and I loved when Max rushed into the lake and Clare said, "My mistake."

They mentioned Clare in today's episode.

Tom: Do you think Clare was right?

OB: Clare, what?

Tom: Yeah, you know how she told me that eveyone close to me dies. First mum and dad, and now Max.

I think the only reason she ever came back to EE was due to her popularity on HO. I don't think they quite knew what to do with her on EE this time around.

OK, I'm not gonna push it.

[Ryan]

Yup, starting with the February 4th episode I think. I'm so excited.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Of this year? So you'll be seeing some McQueen drama.

Clare left in September 2007, so she's not in it. Craig left the same time, so you'll miss out on the Craig and John Paul love story.

There's a lot more good stuff from the beginning of the year, I won't spoil it for you guys. Again, if you need some back-story, I'm always here to answer questions.

[Ryan]

I can ask if he has any of those episodes too.

[Toups]

Oh shit, that's right! Damn!

[Ryan]

It's July Toups

[R Sinclair]

Lord knows that's the truth. I can't STAND all of the "yeah, well, you know what's" and the "Look at me, look at me..." that a LOT of these actors do when they're mentally searching for their next line. That's one of the reasons I said Cameron Mathison should've NEVER been given that awkward Beach Speech. If you read the ACTUAL transcript, there's a generous helping of "you knows" as well as "and-and-and..."

Why must Toups always torture us with waiting?

[Sylph]

Because he can?
