Members yrfan1983 Posted May 17, 2020 Members Share Posted May 17, 2020 Anyone know the date in ‘97 or ‘98 when Kay Alden started co-head-writing with Bill Bell? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members will81 Posted May 18, 2020 Members Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) I've been trying to find that too. Unfortunately many of the articles I have found state Kay became a co-head writer in 1988???? Actually I just found an article with Jack Smith from 1988 stating he and Kay are co-head writers, no mention of Bill Bell at all. I know they became associate head writers, maybe the terminology is confused. He mentions this on the second page Please register in order to view this content Edited May 18, 2020 by will81 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members yrfan1983 Posted May 18, 2020 Members Share Posted May 18, 2020 Great article @will81 ! What a cushy set-up Jack Smith had in Hawaii. Yes, it seems like "head writer" can mean different things at different times. What I'm wondering is... when did Kay Alden start taking over "head duties" from Bill Bell? I've read various references (can't locate them now) that there was a gradual hand-off later in '97 and by some point in '98 Bill had officially stepped down. I just read all the daily recaps for 1997, and the first half of the year is soooo slow and boring. Things start to pick up in the second half, which I imagine is due to Kay's contributions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted May 18, 2020 Members Share Posted May 18, 2020 Didn't Bell make the official announcement of Kay as headwriter on the 25th anniversary? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members feuxdelamour Posted May 18, 2020 Members Share Posted May 18, 2020 Be that as it may, the last episode with William J. Bell as a head writer in the closing credits is dated July 3rd, 1998 (#6412). In the following episode's credits (July 6th, 1998 — #6413), he's not anymore in the writers' list...

Members will81 Posted May 18, 2020 Members Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) The first articles I could find were from May 1998. Since his last credit was July and they used to write around 7 weeks ahead of episodes airing, the announcement seems to have been made around the week he stopped writing for the show. This article is from the New York Daily News May 22, 1998 Please register in order to view this content Yeah I have articles listing Kay Alden as head writer as far back as 1980. I have to wonder if that was when she became an associate head writer As for her taking over in 1997. I have been searching far and wide, but there doesn't seem to have been any official announcement. At least not one I can find. I do wonder if the press didn't even know it had happened until later. The first mention I could find of Kay having become a co-head writer in 1997, was from an article from I think 1998. Though I seem to have lost that too.
