Members sheilaforever Posted March 22, 2010 Members Share Posted March 22, 2010 Toups - any scoops/guessing games for April? Maybe that Frederick Johnson is coming back to B&B or Y&R? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted March 22, 2010 Members Share Posted March 22, 2010 She looks really young too. Fresh blood!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members scandi123 Posted March 22, 2010 Members Share Posted March 22, 2010 There was a post on another website (SoapCentral, last week, I think) that Gordon Rayfield joined the writing team of OLTL. Is that old news by now? If it is, sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 Gordon Rayfield to OLTL...hmmmm...i'm still predicting that Passanante will be named co-headwriter...There's no way after the ratings free fall this last six months, the bloodbath etc. that Carlivati's going this alone....Passanante got her start on OLTL. I've met her. She's very smart, loves soaps and is very well respected. So, if K/S can get hired at AMC, I'm almost certain JP will end up at OLTL. Good, I think RC is highly overrated.

Members Adam Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 It really puzzles me why Frons is determined to fill the behind the scenes rosters of his shows with these cancellation rejects..... I expect Goutman will be in the ABC family again soon as well. Jean going back to OLTL is probably going to happen... I wonder if Ron would be forced out completely? Or maybe bumped back down to being an AHW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 Goutman will either be the new EP at OLTL or AMC. More than likely Valentini will be out and Goutman in with Jean Passanante as Co- Head Writer...Watch it Happen!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted March 23, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted March 23, 2010 No, it's not old news. It was going to be one of my April teasers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 You got outscooped!! When is Rayfield's last day at ATWT...Toups?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 I think there is universal agreement that Rayfield was horrid as headwriter of AMC (which may or may not have been his fault), but what do people think of him as a staff writer? Are his ATWT scripts any good (although I'm guessing he's going to be a AHW at OLTL, replacing Fred Johnson?)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 He's scripts were mediocre at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 It may be a universal agreement, but I personally disagree. Anyway, Michael E. Knight said Rayfield wrote the script to 2003's Fan Fantasy Day episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 Gordon Rayfield was awful as solo HW, but I felt when Anna came aboard things improved heavily.... but I think alot of what I hated about that era on the show can be traced back to Brian Frons.... AMC completely transformed itself in that period between Culiton and McTavish returning... it was unrecognizable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 You liked Rayfield's solo months as HW? Ah yes I forgot he wrote the entire Fan February episode himself. Good point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted March 23, 2010 Members Share Posted March 23, 2010 I think it's HIGHLY unfair to formulate such a strong opinion of his head writing abilities after only a 8-13 week solo stint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
