Members Scotty Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 I have to respectfully disagree. I mean this with all due respect, but we have a headwriter who creates miracles....perhaps they could send those ex-Y&R scab writers back to Genoa City, or to ATWT or GL..........I hear they're not doing too well these days. OLTL is perfectly fine with RC at the reigns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 Sheila, who was the script writer for that day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 Just take a look at who is writing this: Tamiko Brooks Aida Croal (she shouldn't be bad, since she is a playwright, but I haven't watched closely) Jeanne Marie Ford Elizabeth Page (thw worst ATWT writer) Michelle Poteeet Lisanti Fran Myers Gary Tomlin Where are Stephen Demorest & Leslie Nipkow?!

Members brimike Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 Most of Tuc's lines are Tuc's lines. Although that could have been one of the SW's. No way of knowing. But David's lines, good or bad, are never really a judge of what the scriptwriter did. It's like judging Lucinda's dialogue on ATWT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 9, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted June 9, 2008 That sounds like something an actor would say on his own instead of a writer's dialogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 I'd rather decent storylines over fairly average/bad dialogue. GH has great dialogue, yet the storylines are unwatachable at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 A good soap is both. Sadly, no soap today fully satisfies these terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 9, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted June 9, 2008 Sure there is. The great OLTL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 OLTL has great dialogue? I must be watching a different show. I bet PSSN is even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 I'm going to play the wicked witch again, a role I seem to revel in playing: to paraphrase freely an OLTL fan, OLTL's stories are nothing extraordinary, nothing exceptional, nothing amazingly beautifully written. It's just your typical '80s soap staples with some minor changes and cast interaction. And nothing else. Possibly it's in the top three daytime dramas, but in today's canvas - that's not difficult. Pretty much all the soaps suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 9, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted June 9, 2008 Yeah, so? Ron's not re-inventing the wheel. He's just writing good soap opera and I ain't complaining at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sylph Posted June 9, 2008 Members Share Posted June 9, 2008 I'm not complaining about Ron or OLTL, I'm complaining about the excessive praise. After 55 pages someone would say it's a drama you've never seen in your life. And it's not. Positivity, love for the genre etc. just aren't enough. Sadly.
