A pic of Mary Sue Price, Michelle Patrick, and Michele Val Jean from the 2003 Emmy's, Michelle Patrick is the one in the middle. Maybe she'll make her way back to GH soon?

What the hell is wrong with B&E? They let Michelle Patrick go!? I hope another soap swoops her up, she was really one of the best things about AMC's writing team...

They're idiots. She's a damn good writer, she wrote today's AMC and of course it was good.

Hell maybe that's why B&E don't want GOOD writer's showing them up <_<

DAYS: Writer IN (John S. Newman)

Another FOD. IIRC, Dena hired him in 2003.

I'm not surprised Michelle Patrick is gone, in fact I predicted it a few months ago: B&E bumped her down to script writer early on in their tenure, which would suggest they didn't get along (they wouldn't have to interact with her as much if she was just a script writer). AMC just lost it's best writer (IMO) and it's only black writer (I think). Great timing morons!

Renauld is no big loss but it's surprising since he's a friend of B&E.

I think Cinquemani is young-ish. I remember he was friends with the guy who played Kyle on GH (the guy who had sex with Robyn Richards' Maxie and put it on the internet).

You know what's sad? With Karen Lewis and Michelle Patrick gone Rebecca Taylor is now the most senior script writer and Courtney Bugler is the second most senior script writer!

I wonder what the status is on Stephen Demorest? And what exactly are is the role of Addie Walsh and Amanda L Beall at AMC now?

Yes Jeff has history but I'm talking about script writers specifically. All Jeff Beldner does is edit (and quite poorly, might I add).

Stephen's already gone. :(

Losing Michelle and Stephen hurts the team. They're two of the best writers.

First Karen Lewis, then Stephen Demorest, now Michelle Patrick - what the hell are B&E thinking?

She had a falling out with Guza? Over what story Toups?

I don't know what happened, but I remember reading somewhere that they had a falling out over a story. The thing is, Guza and his writers are very tight (the writing team rarely has any changes) so I was very surprised that Michelle spoke up and went against Guza. I love her for doing that (if it's true). :)

Sounds more and more like B&E are trying to kill AMC

:angry:

The day they're kicked to the curb I am throwing a ticker tape parade. Damn this is sad when I didn't even hate McTavish's writing this much
