Members Matt P. Posted July 18, 2008 Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 I'm hoping to see more camp! That's all I ask because that's what B&B was known for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 18, 2008 Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 Not with Kay. Sigh. I love her. I personally loved her time on Y&R. I thought her MIT talk was great and insightful and plain-spoken. But B&B is camp. I don't see that as Kay's forte. What will Brad's role be? I imagine he will remain as a STRONG EP, giving specific story direction insights, don't you think? I actually hope Brad is okay. He is a young man...living out his father's legacy. What could have motivated this? Maybe he was upset about B&B's recent all time low? If yes, he is not to blame...the whole genre fell precipitously that week. ETA: With both Bell shows headed by FiCores (Alden at B&B, MAB/Sheffer at Y&R), what will the CONSEQUENCES of this be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 18, 2008 Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 Why won't Kay do camp? She was assitant writer for Y&R basiclaly from the start and it's had a lot of camp in its day--maybe not as much as AMC classically did, or the awful JER style of camp but... THis actually makes me wanna start watching MORE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 18, 2008 Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 It probably means more Katie if anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaytimeFan Posted July 19, 2008 Members Share Posted July 19, 2008 Terrific. Brad obviously thinks Kay has something B&B needs. Hopefully it works out well for the both of them as well as the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted July 19, 2008 Members Share Posted July 19, 2008 LOL! Well, if it doesn't, sheilaforever, I certainly wouldn't blame you. To me, Kay Alden (co-)HW'ing B&B makes sense...on paper. But if she is primarily responsible for the Logan infestation (they might've been there at the beginning, but it's been years since we've seen most of them, and most of them are with "new faces," so to speak, so putting them on the front-burner immediately is, IMO, not the best idea) then I worry whether Brad has made the right decision. That said, I do believe Brad needs to focus more on EP'ing the show, and less on HW'ing it. In a perfect world, too, this setup would allow Brad to focus on Y&R some, too. But who said the world was perfect, lol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted July 19, 2008 Members Share Posted July 19, 2008 Why isn't anyone speculating that Brad will take over as EP of Y&R.....maybe that's why Kay Alden is the headwriter now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 19, 2008 Members Share Posted July 19, 2008 If Bell were really smart, he'd let Ron Weaver go to Y&R and EP it with and have one of the old Y&R writers on B&B go back to Y&R as HW. Or he could just ask Jack Smith or David Shaughnessy to go back to Y&R and EP it. But Kay is only Co-HW for now, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 19, 2008 Members Share Posted July 19, 2008 I dont think this is good news. Her stint at Y&R was boring as hell. And B&B lately has been very boring to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AddictedToSoaps Posted July 19, 2008 Members Share Posted July 19, 2008 I hope so. I absolutely love her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
