Members Khan Posted March 25, 2011 Members Share Posted March 25, 2011 A(nother) cost-cutting measure, perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted March 25, 2011 Members Share Posted March 25, 2011 I've been noticing that. All I could think was yeah maybe to cut costs or something, or maybe quick re-writes since these scenes were taped a month ago around the time it was announced Becky Herbst got her job back. Maybe that could be why things seem so rushed? From what I heard the show had something totally different planned then what's currently playing right now. IDK. Let me stop speculating, lol.

Administrator Toups Posted March 25, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted March 25, 2011 Hmm...that's interesting. Maybe they had a couple of writers on vacation at the same time or some writers had to go on hiatus. If this continues, I'll do some digging.

Members aMLCproduction Posted March 25, 2011 Members Share Posted March 25, 2011 Is Chris Dunn any good? What will he bring to Days? He's not even a co HW is he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 8, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted April 8, 2011 Y&R: - Susan Dansby first listed as Script Writer on April 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dc cubs Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I saw this as a retweet on Twitter. http://www.tweetdeck.com/twitter/tommiecas/~vcb3Q Tom Casiello is leaving Y&R and writes about it in his blog which is linked above. He said his last scripted episode airs on May 27th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted April 12, 2011 Members Share Posted April 12, 2011 No surprise that he was canned. They were already giving more breakdowns to Beall and Smith and with Dansby coming on, one or more had to go...the question is...are they elevating Beall again to breakdown writer, or is Whitesell coming in?

Members Jonathan Posted April 12, 2011 Members Share Posted April 12, 2011 Lucky Gold to breakdown writer at All My Children. Interesting. I'm guessing that is a D&D hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 12, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted April 12, 2011 Yeah, I think it was. We all guessed he would show up at AMC but didn't expect this long for it to happen. And when it did, D&D are fired! I hope Broderick brings back Fred Johnson to help her usher the show out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted April 12, 2011 Members Share Posted April 12, 2011 Bring back Fred Johnson to write the next 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted April 12, 2011 Members Share Posted April 12, 2011 So this all started with Whitesell getting the boot from Days, Sony places him at Y&R and boots Casiello, Tomlin picks off Dunn from AMC to replace Whitesell, and Gold replaced Dunn at AMC...what a soap opera. I wish Casiello the best but he was obviously axed for Whitesell. But now...where has Bloom landed...this Angie story and the Erica story have Bloom written all over them...remember she was at ABC..who else thinks she's penning stories for AMC?

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted April 12, 2011 Members Share Posted April 12, 2011 Chip Hayes promoted again, sounds like an LB move because he was a BDW from the beginning of her short run last year. Kreijeski moved him back to scripts after a while. Now he's a BDW again under LB. He just keeps going back and forth on the team lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted April 12, 2011 Members Share Posted April 12, 2011 Chip Hayes from scripts to breakdowns... I thought the rumor was AMC doesn't do breakdowns, and JHC has a conniption whenever someone mentions "breakdowns" because of the intentional cost-cutting measure of removing that process?

Members Khan Posted April 13, 2011 Members Share Posted April 13, 2011 Speaking of Lloyd "Lucky" Gold, I attended a staged reading of his newest play, "Renaissance," last week @ St. Thomas Episcopal Church in NYC. Not bad. I actually wanted to talk with him afterward about his play, but didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
