Oh dear Lord! I've never heard a good comment on Beall and now that writer is coming to Y&R? What the heck is this? Is Maria so busy trying to break the Guiness World Record (or making that category) for most writers on staff. So I guess we can expect at least 10 more hiring in the next 6 months.

rain, we'd really like to know if MAB has any intention of trimming down the team?

Ms. Beall is leaving AMC. She has accepted a position at Y&R.

Thanks Rain1!

Wow, Y&R's writing staff is HUGE!!

I am really glad that AMC is getting rid of all the bad writer (except Michelle Patrick). Anyone coming aboard?

Thanks Rain1!

Wow, Y&R's writing staff is HUGE!!

And unfortunately the show is still dog [!@#$%^&*]!!

Maria Arena Bell, Hogan Sheffer, Natalie Minardi Slater, Scott Hamner, Cherie Bennett, Jeff Gottesfeld, Marla Kanelos, Jay Gibson, Paula Cwikly, James Stanley, Sandra Weintraub, Beth Milstein, Darin Goldberg, Shelley Meals, Valerie Ahern, Cristian McLaughlin, Eric Freiwald, Linda Schreiber, Lisa Seidman, Thom Racina, Marc Parent, Amanda L. Beall... I believe that's 22.

Also, Rain1, does Maria hav any intention of trimming Y&R's writing team? She just keeps on adding to the insane amount of (bad) writers already on that team.

Word!!

And Toups...what in the world is going on? Rain1 is beating you to the scoops. You should get him on the staff..

Thats true..I like the way Rain1 just spills the good juicy news.

Well, if the hype is read, Y&R should be good in August.

Oh yeah with all these writers going from AMC are B&E responsible or Pratt?

(If its Pratt I will have a bit more confidence because the bad writers are leaving!)

Why would any professional writer want to sign on for a show that REQUIRES its writers to do two jobs (breakdown AND script writing) for the price of one?

cinquamani's been out for a while. hired as a trial and not picked up.

pratt has producing credit.

someone is jumping ship on amc... headed somewhere else.

Beall - that's the same one i was talking about.

rain... do i know you? wink wink.

I don't have permission to post right away. If I did, of course I would post information a lot sooner. Oh well. I'd like keep my sources, so I have to listen to them.

That's it, I give up. I am no longer keeping track of Y&R's writing staff. Life is too damn short.

Beall - that's the same one i was talking about.

rain... do i know you? wink wink.

I'd like to know you both.
