So is Hogan Sheffer still there or no?

Soap headwriters/producers are like cockroaches, they never die, they just pay dead until they can get another life.

So is Hogan Sheffer still there or no?

I'm guessing Josh Griffith will want to bring in his own writing team, so if isn't now, he probably could be soon.

They are buddies from ATWT though aren't they (I think they overlapped for a while?)?

Although I guess the press release would be more likely to mention that Sheffer was remaining as co-HW than mentioning that he was canned. And he wasn't mentioned so....

My condolences to the Y&R audience.

P.S. I give it a month before Jill fires Genie Francis - and any Y&R female vets over 40.

I don't mind Jill so much, but Josh Griffith writing is a HUGE WTF, given what the show decended to the last time he was in charge (though he and Maria were in conflict all the time then).

Griffith has never done well as a HW, like at all...

I guess the talented Owen Renfroe will be joining as a director, and Mary O'Leary will be a producer.

I'm most excited at seeing Jill work with Mike Denney, she's always been a great collaborator with directors. Noel Maxam directed some episodes of Hollywood Heights, so I expect him to stay.

Sally Suckass Moron-a, I mean Sally Sussman Morina must be on her way back too, given the Hollywood Heights connection....

I guess Brad and Lauralee didn't agree with Maria, given that Bill Bell, Jr. is her husband and gave her this job in the first place...

Anybody over 40 at #YoungAndRestless better start clipping coupons...

MAB reportedly called a top #YoungAndRestless star in hysterical tears earlier today

MAB never treated this job seriously. Heard from numerous sources Sony TV was ticked at how often she was unavailable or off set.

Sony TV is hella impressed with what Jill and Josh have done with #HollywoodHeights and on the cheap.

Griffith's Y&R was quite boring, but I'm wondering what he'll do this time for the show without Maria at his side.

I'm glad MAB is out, hopefully along with Sheffer. However, this does not resurrect my faith in the show because it could always get worse - and probably will.

There goes my favorite soap.

She can fire GF. GF needed to be fired long ago. And fire Daisy Duke as well.

Well, we know Jackie Zeman will never pop up in Genoa City now. Ever.

Sally Suckass Moron-a, I mean Sally Sussman Morina must be on her way back too, given the Hollywood Heights connection...

Yup, I'll bet on those additions too. And Dominic Messinger will probably join as a composer. I'll be sad if Jack Allocco and David Kurtz are fired.

Another sure bet is Michael Conforti joining as a BDW.

Maybe Rick Hearst joins a character who Matt Clarke stole his face from.

Noel directing some episodes of HH is a good sign that he'll stay. I just hope Mike Denney and Sally McDonald won't be fired. I could see Sally being demoted to make room for Mary O'Leary though.

She can fire GF. GF needed to be fired long ago. And fire Daisy Duke as well.

She can fire Stephen Nichols again too.

I will never watch this show consistently again, but will tune in from time to time to access what Jill is doing.

I don't care about the characters or stories anymore. Maria and her henchmen broke my faith forever regarding this show.

Toups will you change the thread title now that it's confirmed, thanks
