Lynsey "We're gonna turn this show back around" Dufour may be using it as a networking tool, but Chuck Pratt may be "friending" Dufour to laugh at her ridiculous horse smile and awful posing for the camera, while remembering her cringeworthy, frat party dialogue. :o

I crack the hell up at that quote every damn time! :lol:

LOL. She sure was cocky wasn't she?

So, I must ask, while I have your attention, I'm kind of a casual AMC viewer(I paid attention more during the Zach/Reese stuff), but how do you think Dufour stacked up in comparison to your least favorite AMC scriptwriter? I saw her "Zeese" dialogue through edits on YouTube and I was kind of unimpressed. It just didn't seem like a conversation two successful business people in their 30's(or in Zach's case, 40's) would be having, even after a few drinks. Are/were there worse than her on the staff? I know how much you hate Beall, but I wondered about your thoughts on Dufour in comparison to Beall and other AMC staffers.

And I'm hoping for an answer other than, "Watch the show."

Watch the show!

No, I'm kidding! :P

Anyway, unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), her stint was too short for me to formulate any solid opinion. Your word "unimpressed" certainly fits. She didn't do anything that made an impression on me either way. I couldn't establish any continuous patterns -- unfavorable or otherwise -- the way I was able to do with Beall (Bitch, whore, slut, skank), Bugler (uneven and awkward -- don't get me started on the Beach Speech) and Taylor (Redundant, repetitive and redundant). From Bugler's first couple of scripts, though, I knew that woman sucked!

Ah, so Rebecca Taylor is the one you referenced when you mentioned the writer who(even before AMC writers allegedly had to write their own breakdowns/outlines) finds ten billion ways to say the same thing in one scene, right?

Interesting. I'll have to find a Rebecca Taylor show(via YouTube or watching live) and see what I think about it.

Thanks for your thoughts.

BellCurve- if you get the chance Today's AMC shows was by Rebecca Taylor.

Toups- Do you have any official word on Michelle Patrick's status at AMC.

Cool. Thanks for the heads up! It will be a welcomed break from my work.

I *think* it ended. I haven't heard anything about her being picked up. Maybe someone else knows.

Oh, and just to say... Kate Hall wrote back to me on Facebook! :P

I'm surprised she was let out of Carruthers' script sweatshop.

Daran Little looks so creepy in his Facebook pic.

That's not nearly as bad as Josh Griffith's "Waiting For You While I Smile On My Webcam" profile pic.

Nice guy, but Jesus...do you want everyone thinking you're a "To Catch a Predator" candidate? I'm sure he's had professional photos of himself taken. He should be ashamed for making that available for all to see!

WOW! LOL! I don't find it to be that bad. But it's definitely hokey.

:lol::lol::lol: I've had my Facebook Profile Pic Fails over the years. I am not immune, but when I saw that I was like, "Oh no!"

Today's GH Script Writer: Nathan Fissel

Apparently a long-time writer's assistant getting a tryout.
