Members LeClerc Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 Okay I know when I suggested a while back that the GL writer Pratt wanted was Chris Dunn there was some question as to whether they had even crossed paths before (at Santa Barbara) or had just missed each other, but all of sudden Dunn has friended Pratt, Daran Little, and Tracey Thomson on Facebook. Pratt and Thomson maybe, but I doubt he would know Daran Little unless he was now working at AMC. Hmmmm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kubla Khan Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 He is at AMC now. I'm surprised it took so long to leak out, because he was hired back in early June at the very least (of course he didn't start working then). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 Thanks for the confirmation. He was headwriter of GL for that stupid "Reva time-travels through a painting" story right? Ugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kubla Khan Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 Dunn joined GL as a breakdown writer during the Labine era. The wonderful time travel storyline was the brainchild of Lloyd Gold. Gold started the "Time travel" arc as his big "launch" storyline (he followed Labine). Two months into his run, Dunn was promoted to co-HW (after P&G was apparently nervous about Gold's 'introduction'). Dunn's work as co-HW hit the airwaves in September 2001, well when the time travel was diminishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dc11786 Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 I thought the time travel stuff was later than September. In September, the Boudreaux family was introduced and the show focused on the college set for a while. During the time travel stuff, Reva was in jail with a slave, played by Shari Headley. This had to be at least October or November 2001, and Reva still hadn't travelled to Germany yet. I remember reading in Michael Logan's column Paul Raunch said they had bought the story bible for the time travel plot from another writer. Does anyone else recall this?

Members Kubla Khan Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 Sorry! I thought the time travel stuff was exclusively Summer 2001 (have never been a regular GL viewer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 I think another one of Gold/Dunn's stories was the Beth/Lorelei thing. There was still tons of focus on San Cristobel and the mob, and that awful Catalina character. Although Dunn's story inclinations are probably irrelevant since I would assume he's only going to fill the open scriptwriter slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted August 1, 2009 Members Share Posted August 1, 2009 More info on Chris Dunn, please. Good or bad for All My Children? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted August 2, 2009 Members Share Posted August 2, 2009 He's been at GL for years now. Before that he was at Sunset Beach for its entire run I think. Before that he was at Santa Barbara for its last year or two. Not the greatest track record. In other AMC news a Coronation Street site is claiming (don't know how reliable it is) that Daran Little is back writing for that show and that his stint at AMC is over: http://coronationstreetupdates.blogspot.com/2009/07/daran-little-returns-to-coronation.html Edited to add: Little is indeed back at Coronation Street. An episode of his aired last week. So unless ABC is letting him do both in exchange for a paycut or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted August 2, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted August 2, 2009 August Teasers: - B&B: Writer IN - ATWT: Writer OUT - ATWT: Writer IN - DAYS: Writer OUT Thanks for news, KK. I would've been surprised if it wasn't Dunn that Pratt was talking about. I thought he might go to DAYS because he knows Tomlin. So I guess he's replacing Daran Little or is he taking Michelle Patrick's place as a SW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
