Members kelly1142 Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 If I'm remembering correctly who CW is from his OLTL days, I wasn't a huge fan...however I may be willing to give him a chance over JP LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WorldTurner Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 When it says "has" does this mean he went fi-core and is taking over while the strike is on with a promise of the job afterwards? I really, really want JP gone, but I thought I had heard some not very good things about CW also. Any more opinions on this if in fact it is even true?

Members dm. Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 Whitesell was also Co-HW (with Meg Bennett, later Margaret DePriest) for SUNSET BEACH during 1998-1999, so I guess it's thousand times better than Passanante. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted January 5, 2008 Administrator Share Posted January 5, 2008 Someone should tell "Italian Stallion" that someone who posts here does not mean "According to sources over at the Soap Opera Network." And that rumour started here: http://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/index.p...st&p=536343 Clearly RavenWhitney does not speak for SON. So next time please credit RavenWhitney instead of SON. And good to know that "Italian Stallion" going to be copying everything I write in the Directors/Writers Thread and paste it in his own thread. Yup, good to know.

Members Vee Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 Say hello to an even worse ATWT, which I did not think possible. Chris Whitesell is absolutely atrocious. He was a HW for Gary Tomlin's OLTL in 2001-2002 which descended to new levels of camp and ridiculousness. He came from SuBe, which should tell you his background.

Members leevo64 Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 The man's not a complete hack, only partially so. He created mainstays on OLTL such as Natalie, Rex and Roxy. He also started off with strong writing with the Natalie/Jessica baby switch. Unfortunately, he went downhill fast and the show slided into complete camp by the time he was fired and replaced by Michael Malone. So expect at least a few good months of ATWT He's kind of like the male Megan McTavish, but instead of going for dark melodrama he goes for light camp.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 LMAO! Since Tomlin will be scab writing for OLTL during the strike, I wonder just how ridiculous things are going to get. I agree, Whitesell is pure crap. As I've said before, I don't believe anything that comes from RavenWhitney, given the false information this poster has posted in the past. LOL! Maybe you should copyright the Directors/Writers Thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WorldTurner Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 Thanks for the clarification Toups. I'm skeptical then that this is true. Have you heard any rumblings of who is writing for ATWT, even if you can't say the names? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 See, I think all of those can be credited to Lorraine Broderick while the campy stuff can be credited to Whitesell.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted January 5, 2008 Administrator Share Posted January 5, 2008 LOL Maybe I should! It's amazing they copy/paste and they don't credit at all, not even a link! Sheesh. How about a "I am directly copying and pasting from SON. Here is the link:........" Not that hard, eh? No, I got nothing on ATWT right now.

Members Vee Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 Ah, yes..."RavenWhitney". Well, never mind then. Re: GT, Gary's a good guy and a good producer. He just can't headwrite and should not have much of a hand in story direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juppiter Posted January 5, 2008 Members Share Posted January 5, 2008 I don't buy it at all. With ratings up recently, Passanante is as safe as GH's Guza or OLTL's Carlivati. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
