So Jamey made that up and you know this how? Its what he was told. Jamey was also told AMC was moving To LA & It was Gonna Be Canceled. I guess his sources do have a history of getting things right. All his tweet said is that David was heavy in story projections. Now if PP was using Agnes & Lorianne's projections on who to sign and they didnt have VI, I can see why him not on board could be a factor in PP putting AMC on Delay

I haven't done anything but gloss over Jamey's tweets today because I don't want to get into it as I understand having a knee jerk reaction, but it was indicated that he posted today about Lorraine Broderick what I referenced, John. Maybe that's incorrect but since I'm not going to report on that, yet, I'm not going to go do research on it.

One thing I don't believe about him is that he goes after actors with malice. I do believe Jamey preferred and prefers OLTL over AMC strongly which leads to prejudice or lean in reporting from time to time. Did that play into his tweets over the weekend? I have no idea. I wont speculate and I wasn't speculating when I did that report.

I understand that John, but if I'm reading accurately he also said today "What my sources told me is Agnes and Lorraine were worried PP wouldn't sign Vincent Irizarry, while focusing on Lucci."

What does that have to do with the matter at hand when it's Prospect Park making the decision and they according to Jamey himself haven't even contacted Lorraine Broderick since the projections? His statement over the weekend wasn't that Lorraine and Agnes decided to stall AMC because of not being able to secure Vincent and Susan, it was that PP decided to stall mainly due to Lucci/brand, Vincent/story and no success in negotiations with either performer.

This is what I'm getting, and maybe I'm being dense or just not giving enough of a [!@#$%^&*] but I don't understand then why he's getting so upset. His outrage seems to be coming not from this "truth", but from the idea that it was spun to look like he was wagging his finger at VI. ?

I dunno Angela the only thing I can think is since AMC has No EP and OLTL does and they signed a lot of their cast, maybe Agnes & LB were worried without an EP that understood AMC's history PP wouldnt know who to offer deals too and honestly I I think thats part of the issue IMHO

I don't know whether he goes after actors with malice but he definitely went after AMC as a show with malice. IMO, that alone makes his reporting unreliable and untrustworthy. Jamey has shown that he is incapable of reporting AMC with any degree of objectivity. He's not the only member of the soap press with that problem but he's the only one claiming innocence. Jamey has been called out, directly or indirectly, by SL, RPG, AM, and now VI. At some point he just needs to own his bias.

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.

    • The stories are awful. I'm not enjoying any of them. All I'm left with is Sally in a plastic dress.
