Members brimike Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 Ain't that the truth. MUCH better fit. Although John might become the new Sonny, and then I'd have to take an axe to my television set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brimike Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 You're all working under the assumption that ANY of these people want to work for the lunatic that is Ken Corday, whether they know from personal experience what brand of madness he brings to the table, or have just heard from their friends through the grapevine. There are some paychecks that are JUST NOT WORTH IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 LMAO! When I saw Patrick Mulcahey's name, I laughed, because I know he'd never last long at a show like DAYS. He left Santa Barbara, GL, and GH because of outside interference, things would be much worse at DAYS for someone like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 13, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted June 13, 2008 It's a fantasy team......and Ken Corday is not in the picture. He's retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 Seriously. Let's see: 1) Crazy owner with no sense of patience and no storytelling skills 2) Show with sinking ratings 3) Network that doesn't want you. 4) Rapid fanbases that will not allow you to break up any couples 5) No writing team allowed 6) Split audience who equally want reality and camp, and will fight tooth and nail for it Have I missed anything? You can have the job... nobody else wants it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 Shes 1000x's better than the last two hacks we have had. But id love to see B&C back or SSM. NOT HS or JER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanatic777 Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 I don't think it's as severe as you say. I think at the end, Hogan won a lot of fans over! I thought his last eight months were as close to true "Days of Our Lives" as we have seen since 1993. I'm still pissed he's gone. Sussman just stunk st Days, and anyone following JERs first run would. The show was at a point were no one else could write for it. While I agree with you summation that Reilly altered and almost ruined Days, I think Hogan showed us it could be returned to normal if given time. As boring as it is right now, it is a traditional soap at this point. Days is a difficult, difficult soap to write for because of us fans We agree totally on that. J&M fans scream for their agenda. Bope fans want Hope to pop out a kid every two years. Stayla fans want more drama between the two. Ejami fans suspend reason. Lumi fans take the phrase "Never Give Up" to heart and still like the couple even though they lost their punch long ago. Now that I've offended people (honestly not my intention)..I just wanted to make a humble point that I hope is taken well.....Fan Bases Screaming For Their Way Have Hurt This Show. Every soap has differing fanbases, but with Days it's madness. We need a writer who will write for this show in an even, fair, and balanced way. It needs a good writer who knows the past well and will write umbrella stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanatic777 Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 OK I'll take a stab. My top six... 1) Sheri Anderson and Peter Brash 2) Brash and Cwigly (minus the spaceship) 3) Sheri Anderson and James Reilly 4) Sheri Anderson (Alone) 5) Chuck Pratt 6) Beth Milstein and Peter Brash MAYBE: SSM, but I think she didn't cut it last time. The Jack and Jenn circus thing still makes me shiver and hang my head in embarassment. It was insulting. However, she followed Reilly, and that was impossible. She is a good writer, I think. She just found this show at a rotten time. I would take Reilly alone before I would take Higley alone. BUT, he needs a good character writer to balance him. If he comes back, I hope he's on a team.

Members brimike Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 DaysFanatic, I think I want to marry you. If you've offended everyone, I'm happy to stand with you on your side of the battle line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanatic777 Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 The show is saved. We can talk of writers, but we all know the problem. I wonder what he was doing when his Mom and Dad were producing a landmark drama? If I didn't know better, I would think he's been trying to kill it. Instead I think he just didn't get the genetic markers he needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Prgirl Posted June 13, 2008 Members Share Posted June 13, 2008 Dena Higly should be fired, she is what killed OLTL, now look at OLTL that she is gone. The show is off the hook now. I never miss a show, where as DOOL I could careless if it goes off the air. John and Marlena=zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz the worst couple to ever be put together in all of daytime tv. John killed Marlena years ago. which is sad for the actress as she is talented beyond words and all she has been given is being given quick sound my her borng counter part. LOOK where DOOL is now VS where it was in the 80's. DOOL is gone it is washed up. Mr. Corday can and never will get it together, he wants to retire you can tell. Fire em all and kill DOOL.... ABC baby now THEY know who to write..... Check out OLTL and GH they are off the hook baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
