I'm surprised this hasn't been posted. did anyone here the news about the strike being over or did i miss read this information on Google? that means LMS is back at helm of Y&R..but i guess that show can't be boring then what it is already. LMS is just gonna make it more boring. so i guess it doesn't really matter who writes for that soap.

The wonderful Toups posted this in the Writer's Strike thread:

http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com/

And actually have you seen what Y&R was 6 months ago compared to now? Maybe it's just not your show, since many longtime fans are noticing a sudden change for the better on the show. If it were so unwatchable, it wouldn't have crossed the 6 million mark in total viewers last week. No one is saying its perfect, but it's come a long way and is definetely better than some shows out there.

well your right about one thing. Y&R isn't my type of soap. i believe it's for the romantic fans that enjoy watching that stuff. as for me. i like my soaps to have an edge. i like the Action. i like the badass ride or die chicks. i like soaps that entertaining me. not bore me to death. but i must say. and this is strictly my opinion. Y&R has good writing I'll give them that. but in terms of being a great overall soap. i would say it definitely out ranks DOOL/ATWT/AMC/GL/. OLTL ties in with Y&R. GH basically blows any soap out of the water. i don't even look at GH as a soap opera. to me it's primetime All the way.

I've enjoyed Y&R. I had not watched it in a while before last summer. Lately it's been pretty good IMO. I'm also still enjoying Days. I've never been really impressed with Drake H. (can't spell his last name) as an actor, but this week, he's been pretty good. I'm interested in some of the stories and overall I still am enjoying it. I guess DH isn't writing much yet. I'm going to miss Days when she ruins it. LOL.

Major kudos to Y&R. They have been slowly gaining their identity back.

:lol: @ GH's fall.

It's nice to see no soap below a 2.0 in households, as much as I detest Guiding Light at the moment.

:o: Despite how sorry OLTL is looking in the ratings (wrongfully), the show is gaining plenty of viewers in the 18-49 Women demographic. Good for them!

No, you're not the only one. I actually think GH has improved in terms of cast interaction, consistency and dialogue. Sure, the Super Mob still dominate and it ain't perfect by any stretch, but the improvement witnessed over the past few weeks is still marked. Garin Wolf is a real improvement over Guza, and I'm just worried that TIIC are going take these ratings to mean more Guza mob hell, more of the time.

Yay to Y&R and B&B. From what, I've seen, Y&R deserves it.

B&B has been using the same story for 20 years now. I don't know why anyone really continues to watch it. Young and Restless has been good, and my favorite show now is DOOL and by a long shot. I hope DH doesn't ruin it instantly. I know she will ruin it, but I hope it takes a while anyway.

AMC has seen a small increase since the returns of DM, DW and RB which is great news. At least they didn't go down. I for one find AMC very entertaining and I look forward to it moreso than the other soaps right now. Just wish they would give Colin Egglesfield more to do. Did I mention I love him LOL. Anyway, B&B is my main show now but it is driving me to drink. It was much better a few weeks ago when the story focused on the Logans and the Forresters.

      Maybe I got carried away

      I just hate this storyline so much. And I really, really hate when awful people keep getting rewarded for their awful behavior. Both in real life and in fiction. It’s not right. Say what you will about Sonny and Carly, but they’ve at least somewhat paid for their awful behavior. Not as much as they should but it was still more than this. How can anyone treat someone that they claim to care about so terribly? And then just not care at all about that person or what they did to them? Over at Days, I hated it when Ciara did it to Theo and I hated it when Craig did it to Nancy. But Joss is worse than the two of them put together. It’s like she not even human. I find her to be even worse than Carly. I know Carly has problems being a decent person too, but she would never treat the people that she says she cares about the way that Joss treated Cam and now to a lesser extent, Spencer and Michael. And honestly, I want Joss to suffer worse than any person on GH ever has.  I have absolutely no idea what the writers, or Frank are thinking with the way this storyline is being written. And do they seriously think that this consolation prize crap of Cam going to play soccer for Stanford (and Trina constantly reminding us of it) makes everything better? It doesn’t.

      I hesitate to post Thompson, who is just a gleeful gossip hound. But this thread is instructive, even if much of it is stuff we all could've told the GOP and the NY Times six months ago.

      Sure. They've been sent to live on a farm with other not gone actors where they can run and play.

      Soap Opera Cast Lists and Character Guides- Cancelled and Current

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      From what I can find, Tim was datie Evie but got a job offer out of town that was too good to pass up and left in Nov 76. No mention of Pam and no reason I could see that a marriage would be mentioned later. I just checked Soap Central and there is an entry stating Evie left town and Pam and Tim were married. Not so.This is not the first false entry I have come across at that site. Someone takes delight at posting false info.

      She's under Ryan (I added this).  Pam married Tim at some point-- from what I read. If not, let me know.
