Members Dan Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 I hate to put a damper on this but isn't Lorraine teaching screenwriting these days? Nor has she done a soap since she was a breakdown writer at GL in 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 I know. I find myself getting hopeful in spite of myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 I don't understand the point of hiring a high profile transition writer, and paying someone to do this, when they can use staff writers to write the trasition period. I think Broderick will be here for a while and will be under contract for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Temporary can always become permanent. I think she might have to prove she can turn AMC around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted November 22, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 I expect they lured her with a fleet of golden ships carrying golden buckets full of gold. I don't expect Broderick to be a cheap writer. Her whole interim period might be more expensive than another writer's two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 I think all of us are feeling that. I had truly lost all hope, I am grateful something has happened to bring a little hope back to me as far as All My Children is concerned. Let us hope this turns out as well as it can.

Members Faulkner Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Well, damn. This is very good news for AMC, but I must wonder what her working relationship with JHC will be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 If they don't get on, I imagine JHC will just tell herself that Lorraine Broderick does not exist. It's just one of those silly made up things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members You're Soaking in it Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 As far as I'm concerned, that doesn't put a damper on anything at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted November 22, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Yeah. Teaching screenwriting is bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members reallyhateskateonlost Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 For those who don't know, LB created David Hayward for Vincent Irizarry. A dream come true for David/Vincent fans, I hope. And she wrote for Thorsten Kaye on Port Charles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 I think what Dan meant was she may no longer be interested in a long term soap job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dan Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Sorry, I forgot to add my point lol. The fact is that, other than Daytime Confidential, we have no confirmation that this news is accurate. That Lorraine is currently in another line of work and because of which is possibly unavailable to AMC might put a damper on the news. Not unless she has decided to stop teaching after the semester break... Or perhaps has only agreed to serve as a temporary writer until the next semester.

Members marceline Posted November 22, 2009 Members Share Posted November 22, 2009 Plus you have to ask what talented writer who values their sanity would willingly work for Frons long-term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
