Y&R: MAB OUT! Hamner OUT! JFP IN! Griffith IN! Sheffer UNKNOWN!

[DRW50]

I doubt they'll remember that. Besides, he had hair and a pulse back then...

Money talks - Griffith would probably be happy with that.

Scott probably burned his bridges with the DAYS mess and then going to B&B with the former Y&R writers who were pushed out.

If you keep saying Genie is being fired then people will want JFP.

So how long before we see James Franco on Y&R?

[Y&RWorldTurner]

If anything, at least Jill will probably fix the show's directing and lighting.

So, even if she brings superficial changes, it would probably be better than what's currently there. I'd love to see her collaborate with someone like Mike Denney.

Last season Pratt's The Lying game has .5 and it's coming back for a season 2.

Musical telenovelas sometimes have sequels if they do well. I remember the Rebelde mexican one runnnig for like 3 years. Ans Alcanzar Una Estrella which Hollywood Heights is based off of had a sequel starring Ricky Martin.

LOL! I actually like Genevieve and amongst Y&R fans in general, I don't think I am alone in that feeling. However, I do love Nikki, Ashley, Jill, etc, my Y&R divas and MTS and JW are who I am particularly concerned with. GF could leave and I would forget her after a while. Not so with the other actresses I cited.

JFP is awful -- she ruined AW (and not just by killing off Frankie Frame, a character I didn't care much about one way or another, but by retooling it into a generic, bland, dumbed-down mess). She also has a streak of misogyny about her so god knows how she's going to deal taking orders from another female.

[DRW50]

I think Jill is gone anyway. I do see her running MTS out. And I think Doug Davidson/CLB/TEB would all go fairly quickly - Lauren would just vanish, Paul would probably be killed. I think she'd fire Jennifer Landon too, over looks, along with Marcy Rylan.

I kind of wonder if she would bring the ruler down on Muhney and Morrow, who seem to have way too much ego for their talent or popularity.

Jamey Giddens: Hearing Scott Hamner quit #YoungAndRestless.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Perhaps this would have made a difference ....5 years ago.

[Cat]

Wow. I miss all that amazing background music and the whole noir-ish mood that Y&R used to exude.

[DRW50]

At least this explains why the Ricky story felt truncated and there are no "mysteries" in any of the followup.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

If they must keep Maria as a figurehead, fine.

But why the hell is Sheffer still there!?

[frequentsoapfan]

So what your saying is nothing would really change? I wish they would can GF's scene chewing diva self. They have rewritten her character at least 3 times and nothing is working. She just doesn't fit in. Making her New Jill did not work and making her New Nikki did not either.

SOD confirming the Scott Hamner news. He told SOD he let his contract expire, MAB didn't want him to leave, so is calling it a sabbatical and he's taking a few months off.
