Because some of us want to a) protect our sources B) not be responsible for the BS that comes with dropping it.

Sometimes getting credit for breaking scoop isn't worth it.

You yourself have had scoop and chosen not to share. It's the same thing.

Well, there's a whole lot of people - and you know it - who are present precisely because of that: "credit for breaking the scoop". But... I mean - what's the point of your source telling you and then not let you tell it to other people? (This is also a question for myself.)

I would write also another thing, but so far 2-3 of my posts got deleted so there's no point in writing anything "unfavourable" if it's not going to make it "on air".

Frankly, Sylph, I don't believe that's the issue here. Toups' source(s) probably don't care at all if Toups passes the information along, since Toups, himself, has never named any of them (AFAIK). It could be just that 1) Toups thinks it is no one (else)'s business, or 2) the wailing and gnashing of teeth that is sure to emanate (sp?) from divulging all that he knows is simply not worth it.

As someone who has never given a care about DOOL (with the exception of that hilarious Kristen/Mary Moira/Banks sisters storyline) I want to read that MS. MEGAN MCTAVISH is the new headwriter just so I can read everyone's responses!!! :) :)!!!!!!!!!!

Can't wait to read Nelson's column on Monday!

I hope it is good news for Y&R. Personally, Ed Scott returning to Y&R is a step in the right direction. Although he doesn't seem to get along with anyone! (Well, except Melody)

Just a speculation.....I don't think it's any casting news.....I don't think JER is coming back....I don't think DAYS is getting cancelled. :mellow:

Ahhh...I'm not going to be online tomorrow when Nelson drops the bomb. I'm gonna miss all the action. :(

    • If this was a Ron episode, Sarah’s choking would’ve lasted almost the entire episode. Javi being revealed as a firefighter EMT and Sarah chastising Xander for wanting to go after Chanel/Sweet Bits the cliffhanger. I’m glad there’s actual movement and progression in these episodes. I vaguely remember Cwikly and Brash tenure being the same with their daily episodes 
    • https://www.tvinsider.com/1180503/denise-alexander-dead-general-hospital-lesley-webber Denise Alexander died March 5th & I'm so sad.  The first soap storyline I remember was Susan Hunter Martin (Denise Alexander) & David Martin & Julie Olson & poor little baby Dickie on DAYS.  I followed her to GH, Lesley.  I followed her to AW, Mary/Marisa.  I followed her back to GH.  About her, Christopher Schemering said  In soap magazine polls she was voted Best Actress over & over.  Schemering, C. (1987). The Soap Opera Encyclopedia. Ballantine Books.
    • Good point. In addition to being a great character in her own right, she had chemistry with almost everyone on the show. A Jake/Paulina/Iris triangle would have been a lot of fun. If 1994 AW aired in 2025, I doubt Iris would have even considered to be on the chomping block. All the shows now are noticeably less youth obsessed compared to the 90s.
    • I wrote my previous post about Dante being on a 3-day rant while I was at the 30-minute mark of the show. By the end, Dante was back to being reasonable and kind and understanding of everyone and everything. OK, I get it. We all knew that sooner or later we'd get the wise Dante. The mistake was showing him berate Jason IN THE SAME EPISODE and imply he's a lousy father.
    • I think Dante has a larger GH fanbase than both Ava and Nina character wise.  Both CW and MW have a built in fanbase outside GH which isn't really indictive of the characters, IMO.
    • Just this fan's opinion but I have said these writers are the most plot opportunistic maybe ever! They will have any character say just about anything if it advances whatever plot point they have in their minds atm. I think if Dante's POV right now was defensible people would be running it up the flag pole. The fanbase thing you're describing to me it just means they're going to continue to like their fave no matter what. 
    • I think the difference between the head writer change at Days vs GH is that the day to day episode quality at GH was still lacking while the day to day episode quality has improved. And now that there appears to be some depth to the episode content... the limitations of some of the performers on Days is more apparent (i.e. Leo, Alex, Sophia, Cat). However, Rome wasn't built/rebuilt in a day so I'm waiting to see how things are in three to four months once some of the threads/stories from Ron's era are tied up/resolved.. and Ford/Cwikly's long term content kicks off
    • That would be me. hehe. Keeping track of who I liked better and how it informed what would happen from episode to episode. 
    • Hey, Mike Manning, hey!!! That shirt and those slacks are working today. lol.   Nice to have this Vanessa/Nicole scene.    Look at Kat vs Eva as a cliffhanger.   I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW SILK PRESS SHEILA WOULD SHOW UP AT NICOLE'S AT SOME POINT!!!      Another trio of cliffhangers (including Dani vs Ted...another combo today)! Friday cliffhangers indeed!!!
