Members dm. Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 It is. That makes me sad. She shouldn't be at that soap, she should come back home to Y&R. B&B doesn't deserve her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 16, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted February 16, 2009 It makes me sad too. She belongs at Y&R where her talents will be used. She's going to be wasted at B&B. Come home, Kathryn!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boldfan01 Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 The squeeze credits aren't really under her control, though. CBS imposes those on all their shows as they air on the network, in both daytime and prime time, so the shows have no say in whether or not to use them. However, the content of what CBS puts in the "squeeze" comes from what the shows put in their original feeds to the network, and that's what you see when you watch Y&R on SoapNet or any of the CBS soaps on the net. And from what you said, the web version doesn't have those credits either, and that IS something under Wheeler's control. So Wheeler could and should credit all those people you mention to give them their due, but for reasons only she knows, she doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 16, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted February 16, 2009 Oh I definitely blame Rauch too. The only thing I liked about Conboy was that he credited the episode breakdown and script writer. I think he was the first to do that (re: episode breakdowns).

Members boldfan01 Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Does anyone know if she's been invited back home to Y&R, or if she's asked to come back and wasn't given the opportunity? It's been months since she and Mike Denney stopped working at DAYS. Denney's turned up on Y&R off and on, but there's been no sign of Kathryn. Makes one wonder if the door's open for her at Y&R right now - and if it isn't, isn't it better to at least have her in the Bell family again rather than letting someone else snap her up?

Members dm. Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 On one side yes, but seeing as how B&B is a total trainwreck, I just don't want her there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boldfan01 Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Shouldn't the first two read, if there are two writers listed, the top one wrote the breakdown and the bottom one wrote the episode script? The way it's worded makes it sound like Beall has to be the breakdown or script writer each day, and that's not always the case - or is it?

Members DaytimeFan Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Yes, it's better that she's at a Bell show than some hell hole like GH. Perhaps Kathryn preferred the work schedule offered by B&B...2 episodes a day, once or twice a week. Plus, David Shaugnessy is at B&B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 16, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted February 16, 2009 I mentioned Amanda specifically because she does both and that might confuse people. But I will go back and edit to mention what you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boldfan01 Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 And in Shaughnessy's case, he only directs 2-3 episodes a month, as does Jennifer Howard, with the bulk of the month being done by Stich, Kelley and Popp. Maybe Kathryn's looking for something like that and Y&R, for whatever reason, hasn't been able to give it to her?

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 I think Kathryn's freelancing, B&B tapes so rapidly and far ahead that one of their main directors probably couldn't make it in one day, so someone must have called her. But I don't mind her at B&B, that show is fairly easy to direct, and many of their main directors suck so much sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 16, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted February 16, 2009 Y&R can give Susan Strickler and Grant A. Johnson's episodes to Kathryn Foster. I don't know why Grant isn't on contract at DAYS since Tomlin is there and he's directing a lot at DAYS too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boldfan01 Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 I guess I see your point. Now that Amanda is wearing two hats, it can confuse things no matter how you word it especially for someone looking for the info for the first time.

Members dm. Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Is she? I thought she fully went to breakdowns. She isn't suppose to writing scripts anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
