May 8, 200916 yr Member That is so sad but so true!!!!! I agree with your thoughts on Goutman. At first he really did some good things for ATWT. Although he DID fire one of my favorite Head Writers: Lorraine Broderick. I think he is burned out or he just doesn't care anymore. Do you think anyone, anywhere hears!!! It is insane to think that no one in a position of authority a P&G sees how bad it has actually gotten and how the show is approaching being unwatchable even for 30+ year fans. It is like the polar opposite of what is done on Y&R, where all the story-lines make relative sense and the timing feels right. ATWT has a pace that proves time and time again that anything that happens in today's episode will be irrelevant within 2 days.

When Guiding Light was cancelled that should have been a wake up call for ATWT. I posted in the "What do you want" thread in Discuss the Soaps" what I think about ATWT.
May 8, 200916 yr Member Tuesday and Today of ATWT wasn't that bad it was good, yesterday was better than monday tho, monday was ok but mostly boring. I really dont want the show to be cancelled I want it to get better and have very good ratings but no one does, everyone hates ATWT it seems. I like GL too it is written better but I cant stop watching ATWT, I watch both of them everyday and I wish they didn't cancel GL. ATWT is really bad at times like when they bring a new character on the show they turn out to be crazy and a killer. I hope when they are both off cbs they can be on a new network and be better written. I hope ATWT stays on cbs but that might not happen if it gets worse.

I find myself in the position where I am torn. One half of me wants the ratings to tank so much that they makes some major changes - the other half wants the show to dramatically improve and get better ratings (but with current management, I don't think this is possible) - when you throw cancellation into the mix, the stakes have gone way up! What is a fan to do??
