Members DevotedToAMC Posted March 28, 2008 Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 I got this from SoapTownUSA: Hey Nixon is using some of her clout to bring in a VERY popular and much loved head writer, who penned one of the top rated daytime dramas currently on the air not too long ago. Could Nixon be helping to convince ABC that Kay Alden was the right head writer to go for all along? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 28, 2008 Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 Jason you actually believe something that comes from that site? LOL, they're as bad as Raven Beauty, they basically pull stuff out of their arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DevotedToAMC Posted March 28, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 LOL well they are right on the spoilers so they have some legitimacy and I really like the AMC columnist there so I want to believe her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted March 28, 2008 Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 I actually could see Nixon getting Kay Alden to return. Nixon and Bill Bell have worked together in the past and I although different, their styles as pretty similar compared to other soaps. Maybe she took a look at Alden's story bible and was blown away? Even if Alden turned AMC into Y&R that would be a success. A classy, multi-generational soap with teen characters just as strong as the adults. Mystery, romance, family drama, heartache, comedy. Really Y&R and AMC aren't too much different. I hope this happens for Alden AND AMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted March 28, 2008 Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 You must mean the old days of Y&R when you talk about the teen characters. That show hasn't had a decent set of teenagers since the 1990s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted March 28, 2008 Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 I remember one spoiler they posted on the front page of their site over the summer that was completely false, and when they got called out about it, they got all pissy about it. After that I take nothing that comes from there seriously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Noel Posted March 28, 2008 Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 And where do you think they get their spoilers? My bet is that they read the spoilers from SOD, SOW, or SID and rephrase a lot of things to make it look like they have their own spoilers for soaps.

Members MarkH Posted March 28, 2008 Members Share Posted March 28, 2008 Here's the problem. During the writer's strike, Alden presumably "led" B&B. Have you watched it lately? Not at a "high point". Crazy Pam (over the top!) is doing all kinds of stupid pranks on Donna Logan, and mugging for the camera while she does it. Rick Forrester is now "in love" with Taylor Hayes...the ex-wife of his half brother Ridge, the mother of his last girlfriend... Bridget Forrester is now taking her mother's sloppy seconds with Nick Marone...while sleazy Nick turns his eyes on Bridget's aunt, Katie. All other major characters on the show are backburnered. I've been with B&B since 1987, and I've often lamented at its variability. But right now, I am as emotionally disconnected and disappointed with the show as I have ever been. That all this happened while Kay Alden (whom I miss from Y&R) had the "sole reins"...is NOT a good omen for AMC. Anyway, I don't believe this rumor :-).

Administrator Toups Posted March 28, 2008 Administrator Share Posted March 28, 2008 The only writer that fits the description is Kay Alden and maybe Jack Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
