Just read that....

Why can't AMC try to find someone new??....hiring one hack after another just digs them deeper. Ugh! But I do think McTavish is good at times. She writes well for the Kane women & Greenlee. She loves her some Ryan, though which is not good.

I don't think McTavish wrote well for Greenlee AT ALL. She was one of my favorites under Nixon, Passanante, & Culliton, but once McTavish got a hold of her (and started the awful, never-ending Ryan/Greenlee 'butterfly' garbage!) I couldn't take much of her.

I prefer that ABC cancel AMC before letting McTavish back at the helm.

I could see her declining. She seems happy doing what she's doing now and doesn't need the headache.

Had to come out of lurking just for this....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

She not only created Lavery, but later brought along a whole family for him WTF!?

I think they can't get anyone new because of what DC reported awhile back no one wants the job, that's why he got K&S as HW's, cause it's all he could get. It's his micromanaging is why no one wants the job.

Get rid of Frons and people will be lining up to write for this show

It sounds like a last ditch effort, which means this show is in deeper ish than anyone thought........

I'd take her back only if Broderick came back with equal or greater power.

Never will happen. If McTavish came back, LB would be gone...immediately.

I agree w/ LeClerc, though. The positive is that I don't really feel McTavish wants to come back to soaps at this point, either.

There are plenty of writers who want the job, but he's not willing to give them a chance. He wants people who have had experience as a hw.

Place bets on who gets raped. Annie? Colby? If Angie wasn't already blind McTavish would go after her.

I think McTavish can be a good headwriter when someone is there to help her. Unfortunately Frons and Carruthers are not helpful. They just enable or make her even worse.

AMC needs some energy and I think early in each of her runs as headwriter, McTavish has done that, but then everything falls apart.

If he's going to bring her back, he also needs to change EPs.

I thought all the Rylee/Kendall stuff with the wedding and tearing off Kendall's pregnany padding was pure Greenlee. The Greenlee baby rabies stuff and almost getting punched by Ryan, not so much.

He probably wants McTavish to come back to write the final years of this show due to her "history" with the show. Because make no mistake about it, if she does come back... it will be the final years.
