Members aMLCproduction Posted October 15, 2011 Members Share Posted October 15, 2011 Do you really think Bell would still let MAB stay? Or Sony for that matter. Y&R has been losing numbers all year? Like a million. SO what if she's his wife. Though it is a very tricky situation. Business is business. I would be stunned with any type of regime change came with MAB staying on. MAB should be smart and think maybe make changes on her writing team. Promote her Breakdown writers as each one of them are great headwriters to soften the show up and fire Scott and Hogan. Why isn't her husband trying to make something like this happen? if he knows the writing is on the wall then act. Isn't that why they brought in LML due to sagging ratings. Hello? Ratings are eroding much faster this time and cutting gin deep. I hope and pray they are behind the scenes preparing for change. The show has been hitting lows now for the last several weeks. Ha you know what, having said that, I bet there are changes in the works. When DAys fell in the ratings, KC made changes I am sure with the insistence of Sony, SO Sony I bet is doing the same for Y&R. I bet it's happening.

Members JaneAusten Posted October 15, 2011 Members Share Posted October 15, 2011 For some odd reason I think someone over at Sony thinks because Y&R won the emmy for writing that the writing must be fine. Sounds stupid yes but Sony is also part of who is behind all this stunt casting they keep doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juppiter Posted October 15, 2011 Members Share Posted October 15, 2011 I could see MAB staying on in a "figurehead" type capacity if they're unwilling to fire her altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juppiter Posted October 15, 2011 Members Share Posted October 15, 2011 At this point, the damage is done and there is no going back. I think what they need to do is kill off a lot of these characters who are not working, kill like 8-12 people at once(amazing but I was going over the cast list and they really do have THAT MUCH dead weight), and start over with a new group but write it and produce it as "The Young and the Restless," not the generic style they've been producing the past 5 years. Too much damage has been done and I don't the audience would accept a reset. It's impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted October 15, 2011 Members Share Posted October 15, 2011 At this point I don't care. The show has been in a creatively dead state for years, nothing can reverse this. Just cancel it already, and that will probably happen sooner than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members glatwt Posted October 15, 2011 Members Share Posted October 15, 2011 maybe we should go back real old school and get john conboy back. he's still around and helped launch y&r! he did miracles at gl production wise and he's a producer who doesn't interfer with his HW's writing(clearly noticable from gl) so, lets get alden back and let her work her magic! she's a millie taggart/ carolyn culliton type writer and they're first few months with conboy were AMAZING!
