Awww....too bad then cause you'll be hearing a lot of when his writing starts to air again. :D So you might want to stay out of OLTL threads if his praising is going ot make you sick. LOL ;)

Shouldn't you be busy living inside your own head, suds? This whole imaginary fanfic banner thing is getting a tad, shall we say, finger-twirly.

As for the actual topic, it was a refreshingly candid, honest interview that spoke to fans as a fan, identifying specific concerns people have raised and addressing them. I've never seen a HW be interviewed like that while still on the job and I doubt I ever will again.

I thought it was a good interview and I look forward to seeing OLTL improve. I hope he goes back to Allison's secret, otherwise it'll be pointless. He recognized some key problems, like the lack of Michael/Marcie fallout or development for Langston/Dorian's relationship. I think his OLTL get a big boring so I hope he doesn't come back and continue to drag things out.

Word to that Toups. OLTL is going to be on fire in the next months, and we owe that to Ron!

I hope he reveals Allison's secret too, and I think he will at some point. Fitting in is the problem.

I thought it was a great interview. I'm glad that he addressed the current problems and his future plans. He is truly the only headwriter today that knows what he's doing.

Oh and I loved how he said that Ramsey is acting "Spencer-ish". The subtle jabs at GT were great.

IMO, this is the best Blair has been in years for me. I absolutely HATE her character and always have but she is tolerable now and someone I can watch. I think he should change that last statement and say ""be the Blair we know and hate" bc thats where I feel he's going to go with her

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.
