January 27, 200817 yr Administrator Inspired by this past week's DAYS dialogue, how about we keep track of the "it's so awful it's funny" dialogue from these post-strike episodes? So far, the only soaps eligible for this thread are: DAYS, AMC, GH, Y&R, B&B, ATWT.
January 27, 200817 yr Author Administrator Abe to EJ: "They'll [the I.S.A.] be crawling up your jock strap." Marlena to John: "Stefano dry cleaned your brain."
January 27, 200817 yr Member I'll definitely pay closer attention to dialogue now, so I can contribute. Thanks, Toups!
January 28, 200817 yr Member I'm only watching AMC nowadays, but I think the dialogue and scripts have been much better lately with the scabs! Ironic?
January 28, 200817 yr Member It all depends on who's scabbing, too. Some soaps may have scabs with zilch script experience, while other soaps may have more (cough) experienced writers working in secret.
January 28, 200817 yr Member AMC's dialogue has been inconsistent day to day, but I'll keep an ear out for any "so awful it's funny" dialogue
January 28, 200817 yr Member Y&R's benefited from the "scabs", and I think the dialogue has actually been one of the better facets of the show lately. However, I definitely see the changes at DAYS and to an extent GH.
January 28, 200817 yr Member General Hospital -- the best WGA dialog out of the three ABCD soaps (in my opinion) -- has been HORRIBLE!
January 28, 200817 yr Member I think Y&R's has been pretty good so far. I don't know who is writing for the show, but I haven't noticed a change.
January 28, 200817 yr Member Why hasn't anyone reposted the infamous "gun" scene from Days last week?
January 28, 200817 yr Member I'm only watching AMC nowadays, but I think the dialogue and scripts have been much better lately with the scabs! Ironic? Hey I agree! Give them the head writing job and kick B&E to the curb
January 28, 200817 yr Member Why hasn't anyone reposted the infamous "gun" scene from Days last week? I wasn't the original one to post this, but figured I'd post it here anyway 'cause it's by far my favorite piece of "scab dialogue" yet! lmao Shawn: I'm gonna kill you. Thug: Stop, I have a gun. Shawn: I don't care, you're in big trouble buddy. Thug: You're forgetting who has the gun. Shawn: I don't care if you have a gun, if you don't let me get to my wife I'm gonna beat the crap out of you. Thug: Guess you're on the wrong side of the gun to say that, aren't you?
January 28, 200817 yr Member Toups, This is a good idea. AMC has been veery good with the writing latley but you never know what you will hear.
February 6, 200817 yr Author Administrator February 1: Chelsea: "Just like that?" Victor: "Just like that." Then the very next act: Chelsea: "Just like that?" Victor: "Just like that." --------------------------------------------- February 5 Bo: "Just like that?" Victor: "Just like that."
