Members Khan Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 Meanwhile, someone's taking down their "Church of Ron (Carlivati)" sign and replacing it with a "Church of Richard (Backus)" one. And next month? It'll be AMC's Tracy Thomson. Bank on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 18, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 . I do too, but I know this post will get plenty of serious replies because there are a ton of writing junkies on this board. Might as well just let everyone have their say and hash it out uninterrupted by talk of the current week's episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scryber96 Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 I want Pam Long. She's good with creating new characters and intertwining them with the old ones, uses history to propel a story forward rather than just looking back, and has a great sense for how a story should flow.

Members dm. Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 I remember how she tried to save SB in its final year by bringing in new characters. Baaad decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 18, 2009 Administrator Share Posted May 18, 2009 My picks. Head Writer Maria Arena Bell Co-Head Writers Janice Ferri Esser Natalie Minardi Slater I gotta stay in the Bell universe for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 Eh, Long also did some harm than good at GL. She arguably de-Bauered the show, and made it the Reva Shayne hour. I think Curlee more than surpassed Long in her writing. She managed to make many of Long's characters multi-dimensional and sharp. For one thing, I much preferred for example, Harley and Alexandra under Curlee and company than what I saw of them during Long's run. I don't think Long would be a fit at all at Y&R.

Members Khan Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 Who do I want as HW? Me. That's right; I want to head-write Y&R, because I would kick serious daytime a**. And I want Kay Alden, Michael Minnis, Thomas Nelson (he runs "The Buzz" board), Natalie Minardi Slater and John F. Smith to be my SW's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 18, 2009 Administrator Share Posted May 18, 2009 Ohhh...I want Alden too.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 Maria Arena Bell should keep her Co-EP credit and give a real storyteller this show to write. My HW choice is Mulcahey, of course, with Natalie Minardi Slater as Co-HW. I trust Mulcahey to hire some good script and breakdown writers.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 I do not want Alden anywhere near scripts, I know she edits at B&B, and her editing job is atrocious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 I said script writer, not script editor. If I were HW, I'd edit all scripts. Thomas Nelson would be my unofficial Co-HW, if only in terms of breaking down each week and deciding which plot points should happen on what days. Oh, and instead of Trent Jones, I'd hire Michael Minnis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 18, 2009 Administrator Share Posted May 18, 2009 That's why I put in the ESC role. I'd love to see her consult on a business storyline at Y&R. Who the hell is Thomas Nelson, Khan? I never heard of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 Oh, Alden has a tendency to add her spin to many of those B&B scripts from what I've heard. So while a certain SW might have a certain style, their script still has an heavy Alden-influence, and I've definitely seen it since Alden started there. Though B&B dialogue has always been, well, a bit lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms. Chandler Quartermaine Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 Hmmmm.... I want Megan McTavish or B&E.....they are 3 of my favorite master storytellers. Hell lets have all three... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
