Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 I don't know much about your taste in writers either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 Oh, yes! That one, too, was equally distressing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 14, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted April 14, 2008 Ah okay. That's cool. Yeah, I didn't see it that way at all. But hey, different strokes. I watch Entourage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 It's shocking what we've just realised! All this time, and apart from discovering both of us hate Guza, dislike Kay Alden and love Labine and Curlee, there's not much else the two of us know about each other's taste in writers! Or am I mistaken? P. S. I love it when you say dearest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 It's so funny how you and I have such thoroughly different tastes in television! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KevC1980 Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 So Beth Milstein is going to Y&R...Wow thats a coup, she was excellent at Days..what postition? script writer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 I think I'm very indifferent towards Alden. I don't see her as the God-like figure some have come to see her over of the past year on the boards. Yes, she's better than most current writers, but she's very hit and miss and a lot of times, her misses are more apparent than her hits, you know?

Members Sylph Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 I know, I know. I was indifferent at first, but then all of a sudden people started praising her, especially after the MIT interview, and I had to take large blunt hammer and pound the message home – she is nothing special. And a lot of the time, she is a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 14, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted April 14, 2008 In your opinion, what were her hits and misses? The only two storylines I remember liking are: the Takeover and the Prom. I don't remember what else she wrote (because I didn't really pay that much to Y&R back then).

Members Adam Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 Michelle Patrick is gone from AMC? Dear lord. Please tell me she left on her own and the idiots didn't fire the best writer still currently employed at AMC? This is troubling to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 14, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted April 14, 2008 Her tenure as interim HW was good, but nothing spectacular or anything. But I definitely think she should've been Hogan's Co-HW from the beginning, instead of Meg Kelly. I don't know if she's writing scripts or breakdowns or both.

Members AddictedToSoaps Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 Ugh this is all terrible. First the GL hacks are back (I don't even think they were gone in the first place), but actually knowing that they're back is even worse and now Scott Hamner's back. Fantastic.

Members Chris B Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 I understand it takes time to assemble a team, but this transition has been very rough and the changes in the story aren't helping matters. They decided to replace LML's flops by turning Lily, Victoria and the dreadful Sabrina into Y&R's new leading ladies. Gloria is still running things and the writing for Victor is downright sick. It's clear someone's stroking his ego. I was VERY optimistic with LML and look how that turned out. HWs like Maria Arena Bell and Ron Carlivati are going to have to work hard for my support. So far MAB hasn't come close. I do think the style of writing fits Y&R and the dialogue is good, but overall the show is the definition of "meh." May sweeps better have some fire.
