2009: The Directors and Writers Thread

Why can't Mike Cohen, Beth Milstein, and Richard J Allen return to DAYS? They all understood the show so well.

I believe Richard has retired from daytime altogether. He hasn't written since ATWT, and that was about six/seven years ago.

I don't know. :blink::unsure:

It was very funny to read "I know for a fact..." :lol:

I do know for a fact. I've seen script covers with Guza credited as the outline writer as recently as a few months ago. There was supposed to be something else that followed that statement, but as you can tell, my system went wonky and wound up posting -- twice -- before I was ready and the original point went out of my head.

I hope it comes back to you because I enjoy reading your posts.

Anyway, now you've reminded me that I haven't seen a GH script in a long time... :blink: I'll try to get a few.

Has Lynn Marie Latham retired? Imdb shows absolutely NOTHING after she left Y&R (and not for her husband either).

I realize her run at Y&R was flawed, but with her enormous primetime credits, you'd think she or her husband would at least show up as staff writers somewhere.

It is also interesting how much overlap there was with her "Wild Card" writing team and the Y&R writing team.

Mark, there are tons of great, young, talented writers out there. Why would someone call Lynn Latham on staff when you can get a cheaper younger writer which is at the same time better than her? She's just past her prime...

Well, to my surprise, Mark does.

I think Mark liked her tenure at first, if I remember well.

It really doesn't surprise me. I mean, there's been a good gap between her projects, and you know it's a bad sign when you abandon primetime for daytime in the first place. Add to that, outside of her stint on Knots Landing, ALL of her projects have been commercial failures.

That hack bitch from the depths of hell hasn't worked because she is highly aware that leaving primetime for daytime has tarnished her reputation. As well, her behavior during the WGA strike undoubtedly sent a message to the industry. She's a loose cannon who has had her moment in the sun. She's over and she knows it.

She can go join "the writer" on a beach somewhere toasting to their marvelous careers.

Fine by me so long as that hack bitch from the depths of hell never steps near a show I love ever again.

I think you might've double posted, darling.

CBS.com updated Y&R writer credits and added Zimmerman and Conner...I guess they're both contract....interesting that they added Conner before her first breakdown airs, but they didn't add Casiello or Cohen....
