If Kate Hall is gone, it was a post-strike move, I guess. She was still with the show before the strike.

She's Courtney Sherman/Courtney Simon/Courtney Sherman Simon's daughter, right? Wasn't Sherman/Simon a strike captain?

Since there's only one writer listed for the particular episode, I'm guessing they're writing scripts off thrusts - there's no breakdown writer listed for the episode.

So instead of going from HW to BDW to SW, they're just going from HW to SW.

I *think* that's how it works. LOL

Okay... that should be interesting. Even though I hate writing outlines a.k.a. breakdowns, they are rather helpful. But yeah. This should be interesting, since some writers lack structure (Jean Passanante, anyone?), to see how an episode flows... That's if I dare to tune in purely for research reasons. As a fan, hell to the no! Not until B&E are gone.

Isn't Courtney Bugler a fake, non-existent name?

Wasn't that "Veronica Sandbridge"?

I always thought Courtney Bugler was rather fitting -- since her writing BUGS THE HELL OUTTA ME!

Toups, #13 is Murray Bartlett who plays Cyrus Foley on GL. Him, Marcy Rylan, and Michelle Ray Smith (all GL cast members) presented the outstanding writing award last year, which explains why he's on the stage, and hence why he's holding the envelope.

If Mike Cohen's not at DAYS, he should write scripts for AMC since he worked under B&E at Port Charles. I would love it!

Yes, Kate Hall (or Katherine Simon?) is her daughter and yes - Courtney was the strike captain.

It was also Veronica Sandbridge. I think it still stands as fake. But apparently, Bugler's surname is real. I just thought it was a kind of a (rather lame) pseudonym.

You followed Port Charles?

LMAO I read that some writer's have it in their contracts to end their tenure early if a certain HW is rehired, it's known as the "Megan McTavish Clause"

LMAO. I thougt this was a joke and then I actually saw it in SOD! Poor Poor Megs....

I've never heard of that clause! LOL What did it say in SOD?

AMC:

- Chip Hayes back listed as Writer on March 25

It's pretty much exactly what Zendall Fan wrote. It's in their "Things we know but shouldn't tell you section" and refers to "some ABC writers" having this clause.

I wonder if one of the major reasons everyone at AMC is doing scripts and they are eliminating the breakdowns is to get back to being a couple of months ahead in the writing. During the strike they fell pretty far behind.

I've never heard of that clause! LOL What did it say in SOD?

This is what it says Toups:

There is reportedly a clause that some ABC writers have included in their contracts that allows them to end their tenure early if a certain head writer is rehired by the show. It's known as the "Mc Tavish Clause" after former AMC Headwriter Megan McTavish.

This is true. The Cullitons have it. I'm not sure who else. It's called the "Megan Clause."
