Re: Toups' 27-man DAYS writing team - Best post ever, if you ask me. ;)

Sad part? 1) Like Kubla said, we're dangerously close to that scenario now at Y&R, and 2) Even with every HW from the past 27 years at DAYS, they'd still find ways to "fack up the history", lol.

Is Jeff Beldner out of the question?

Holy sh*t. So, we will have a different script writer for every day of the year! How fresh!

There MUST be a bloodletting in the works!

With bona fide soap writers being hired, maybe some of the sitcom writers etc. will be dumped.

In MY opinion, this is a shame. there has been some truly spectacular, funny dialogue since LML took over, and I would hate to lose that.

Maybe they won't replace her? Haven't the other soaps that eliminated breakdowns also gotten rid of all associate headwriters? Maybe it will just be Pratt and the script writers.

Or maybe Brown & Esensten managed to get the staff writer positions at AMC they were apparently begging for!

LeClerc don't even joke about something like that, AMC is doomed if so, but really I don't see that happening

I am one of the few who didn't think she was all that bad, believe me there were worse *coughBULGERcough*

Valentine's Day 2007 and the 9/11 episode of 2006 were great episodes!

Add Jeff Beldner and I agree with that.

The thing is Pratt doesn't have alot of friends he can bring on. Gary Tomlin very likely, especially since Carlivati probably wants to get rid of him. And SOD originally said Tomlin was also approached by Frons. The only other real Friend of Pratt is Frank South, who I believe moved to Hawaii with his wife to run a writing program for kids.

I'm actually happy about this news. While the 9/11 episode was really good, I thought the Valentine's Day 2007 episode was cheesetastic. A lot of Zen fans seem to like her but I've thought for quite some time that she is fair to midland at best. Zen were cute in that episode, but that is because I love the chemistry between Minshew and Kaye. I was embarrased for them that they had to say some of those lines.

IMO Beall loved Ryan Lavery the absolute best. What I remember the most of that Valentine's Day episode was the long ass montage with Ryan and Annie strolling the grounds of Wildwind and then having their first "roll in the hay" together. Ugh. And in true Beall fashion, the Zen scenes included a conversation about Ryan.
