- ATWT: Writer OUT

- ATWT: Writer IN

Probably Dansby since she is the best writer left and probably earns more than the others. Replaced with a reject from GL....yipee.....NOT!

If not Dansby then probably Levinson.

Now this has me interested: any B&B or Bell ties?

No ties to B&B. I believe this is a CBS move - hint, hint.

Nope, not Dansby or Levinson.

Writer IN recently left another soap.

Writer OUT....ummm...no clue...too easy if I gave one.

Thank gawd..I think they are the two best writers they have left. I hope it's Rayfield.

As for the writer in..probably Salmons?? Didnt seh leave OLTL??

Well Susan Flannery said Brad wants to leave B&B if he gets those Emmys, so maybe someone CBS wants groomed as the new HW? Or most likely it's just a GL cast off?

I wouldn't put it past CBS to hire one of GL's cast offs...ugh

Barbara Blooom herself IN at B&B? LOL!

LOL Remember when she wrote a couple of breakdowns for Y&R. That was messed up.

Or most likely it's just a GL cast off?

Yup.

Salmons is still at OLTL.

Oops...ok..wonder who it is then. Have they written for ATWT before?? Hack GL writers getting more work.....BB never learns.

- DAYS: Writer OUT

It would be wishful thinking to hope for Dena to be gone - the best chance of that is when her contract expires, which I believe is much later in the year. My second best wish would be for John Newman to be gone, but DOOL only has 4 SWs as it is so probably not. Its probably Rick Draughon, which is inconsequential. I just hope it isn't Cherill, Kelly or Culliton because despite their high workload, they are very good script writers.

So Toups you haven't heard anything about Daran Little leaving AMC? Maybe he is doing both shows then, or the eppie he wrote last week was a one time thing. I don't see why ABC would have a problem with him doing both; it's not like Coronation Street is competition for the ABC soaps.

- B&B: Writer IN: Jill Lorie Hurst?

- ATWT: Writer OUT: Leah Laiman?

- ATWT: Writer IN: Janet Iacobuzio or Michelle Patrick?

- DAYS: Writer OUT: Rick Draughon?

John Newman is Fran Myers' son so I don't think Tomlin is going to diss her by firing her son. LOL

I am hoping its Dena Higley from Days that's out. I am keeping my fingers crossed!

If it was Dena, I'm pretty I wouldn't just put "DAYS: Writer OUT". There would be more celebration. :)

I don't know about Daran.

Nope.

Nope. It's s a SW.

- ATWT: Writer IN: Janet Iacobuzio or Michelle Patrick?

It's Janet. She's joining as a SW.

- DAYS: Writer OUT: Rick Draughon?

Nope. It's a SW....which makes it obvious.....it's the last pin that fell down.

Cydney Kelley. So DOOL is down to 3 scriptwriters!? Good thing Richard Culliton can really churn them out.

Yeah, Cydney's OUT. Oh and I forgot to mention that Ryan Quan is IN on a trial basis. He wrote a few scripts in the summer of 2008.
