I agree Errol, I have now idea what any of these characters motives in life are or who they wanna be with.

Honestly, and thats differnt from the last 10 years... how?

I like it. I like the randomness of it. Now keep in mind i would hate this on any other show. But das has TOLD you (not showen you...) who lovs who and who to root for for years. Now its all kinda up in the air and you are able to root for whomever.

Trying to be as coy as possible, lol. I'm referring to an upcoming storyline/plot device whatever. Think Dick Tracy :)

Unless of course it already aired...anywho.

Everytime i think of Dick Tracey three things come to mind...

Spinelli & Maxie on GH

Who Framed Roger rabbit?

Madonna.

SOD said it's going to air beginning 8/11 for 2wks during the Olympics. Sounds like a lame version of what GH did with Spixie.

Well there haven't been any updates from Nelson yet. I think he has to wait for the WGA to make a statement about it.

Some more stuff from Nelosn from his new Soaps' most influential players list regarding a lot discussed in this thread:

http://tvguide.sympatico.msn.ca/Soap+Power...8_NB.htm?isfa=1

13. BARBARA BLOOM

Senior Vice-President, CBS Daytime

2007 RANKING — 5

Why: Because of her title.

Power Plays: Approving Hogan Sheffer as co-head writer of The Young and the Restless; hiring Paul Rauch as a creative consultant at Y&R; approving Y&R’s location shoot to Paris, and trying to oust Y&R executive producer Josh Griffith, who was reportedly rewriting Maria Arena Bell’s scripts. Defending As The World Turns’ Nuke storyline when P&G discriminated against arguably one of their biggest super-couples ever. Allowing her shows to have autonomy in recent months.

5. JAMES SARNOFF — THE SARNOFF CO. (TALENT/LITERARY AGENCY)

Agent

2007 Ranking: —

Why: Because he represents every executive producer and head writer — and their mother — on daytime TV.

Power Plays: Representing One Life to Live’s Emmy-winning head writer Ron Carlivati and director/exec producer Frank Valentini.

Liabilities: It’s too incestuous for one agent to rep 90 per cent of talent when this industry needs new blood. There are talented writers in his rolodex who are unemployed, yet he’ll usually pitch untalented but proven scribes and producers to a network (he reps such “talent” as Hogan Sheffer, Megan McTavish and Josh Griffith) because then no one’s held accountable if they fail. Reportedly strong arms shows to hire only within his client roster.

Outlook: Deadly. No new blood means dead air.

Y&RWorldTurner, are you Nelson Branco?

LMAO, no, but I think a lot of what he says is true...

Though, he has a knack for stretching the truth.

Sylph, are you whoever that is in your avatar? :P

You just know that Blanco is a loon when he calls Luke and Noah "one of their biggest super-couples ever." LOL! Of course, Blanco now considers Bloom public enemy no. 1. He should be on his knees thanking the inventor of the Internet because it has given him the attention that he does not deserve.

I don't know how to read this.....he's obviously joking when he says "their mother" but when he says "every executive producer and head writer," is he trying to be factual, is he exaggerating "every"?

Because this: "he represents every executive producer and head writer" is a false statement.

(he reps such “talent” as Hogan Sheffer, Megan McTavish and Josh Griffith)

I don't believe Megan is with Sarnoff. I believe she's with Artists Agency's Jonathan Russo.

Does Nelson check on these things before reporting? If he's right, I'll certainly apologize to him for this. ;)

Last time I checked, Toups, MMT was repped by Jonathan Russo, at Agency for the Performing Arts. However, like you said, if I'm wrong, I'll apologize, lol!
