Really? Me, too! :lol: I was hoping it would be today so that a little movement is seen on SON today.

If not all seven, at least three would be nice! :lol:

He won't say anything. Not even a little clue. Nothing. :mellow:

But he didn't say it was disappointing, so it must be something interesting.

Shame, really. One has to wonder, though, why are we so intent on knowing all the latest happenings behind the scenes when, so far, pretty much none of them proved satisfying. Yes, I am happy that AMC is getting a talented scriptwriter (Tracey Thomson), but at the same time I am sad that she is leaving GH.

What good does it do to us to know these things? I mean, look at the Cheryl Davis thing - no one even said a word.

I'd laugh my ass off since that show takes up this entire damn thread. The Almighty Number One Rated Y&R is finally getting a taste of what all of us had to deal with over the last ten years of cheese-flavored writing on our ABC soaps.

Too bad my violin's in the shop. <_<

You know, instead of b!tching about this and making snarky comments the whole damn time, you could either hijack the thread so that it could be about AMC's next writing team or you could just try watching Y&R once again. Of course, now that Beall-zebub is on staff, I'm sure you just cannot wait to see another one of her scripts hit the screen! :P:lol:

I know, but at least we're still clinging to the first spot. I desperately hope August turns out to be as good as MAB promoted it.

    • I did not care, just clarifying that was the discussion point. If there are ice cream bars in Statesville I am sure there is a full spa
    • Seeing Peter Bergman (Jack) and Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki) act opposite each other really makes me mad that their short-lived reunion in 2012 was just that... short-lived. I've always loved the Jack/Nikki pairing.
    • No.  I recall there was also a mention about how distracting it was EOB's Gwen wasn't wearing nail polish as well.  That it was someone's pet peeve. And, yes, the fact characters can have a manicure in prison is the wildest continuity issue here.
    • Can anyone remember Mary Ellen Stuart's run as Jenny? I'm trying to fill in the cracks for missing stuff that we overlooked.  Bulletpoints:  * Dated Ross * Rusty's police partner * Directly responsible for Dinah coming forward about George Stewart (Cam's father)
    • But that's not weird... nail polish is allowed in prisons via commissary. Same with general makeup, haircuts, and hair colouring products.
    • This is DAYS, the show that said you could brainwash anyone with simple kitchen appliances.  An actor's nail polish or lack thereof should be the least of our concerns, lol.
    • It was not that she wasn't wearing nail polish, it is that she managed to get a manicure in prison
    • "We're Knot Done Yet": the name of this lovely podcast AND what JVA tells her plastic surgeon at every appointment. In other news, Michele Lee is reminding me more and more of my old music teacher from elementary school, and I couldn't STAND that bitch.
    • I apologize if this has been covered already, but does anyone know whether Douglas Marland was HW'ing by that point?  If he was, then I see what he meant when he said (in so many words) that he had inherited a mess when he started at GH.  Aside from Alan and Monica, none of that material seems very promising.  The story with Mark Dante and the Corbins is the wrong kind of predictable (y'know, the kind where you know what's going to happen, but you just don't give a crap?), the stuff with Scotty and Laura is cute but toothless, I don't know WHAT the hell Gina and Steve Carlson's character are arguing about and Rick Webber has to be the dumbest man alive not to see David Hamilton twirling his invisible moustache over how to make a killing off Lamont Corbin's declining health.  (By the way, "LAMONT CORBIN"?  What is this, "The Shadow"?  And "Corbin Limited" sounds like some jive I'd hear over on Y&R.) In a way, it's kind of like watching today's GH, right down to the dialogue that's serviceable and pushes plot along but says nothing about the characters' inner lives.
    • It absolutely was; the narrative was there, and they followed it promptly. Maybe that's back when women had babies at young ages?!?!?
