JFP will make her mark. A year from now behind the scenes staff will be radically altered. I think Dean and Sally will go too. Has Jill ever worked with or hired a female director? Non on GH. They are getting very few episodes since Jill joined. Dean was the top director under MAB. I wouldn't mind Beall getting the ax; her writing talents are way overrated. Linda Schreiber should get more scripts.

Noel also directs/freelances commercials for Disney Channel/Disney XD, those channels tend to be very active during the fall/winter months, so that could also be what's eating into his time.

Also, I posted this in the background music thread, but Christian LeBlanc confirmed on Twitter that Mike Dobson and Bryan Harrison (Music Supervisors) were the ones fired. Jennifer Johns (thank god!) was also fired.

I assume Kurtz and Allocco are still there, but will be working for difference supervisors moving forward.

You might enjoy this treat, Toups.

Someone posted the Christmas 1990 GL credits on YouTube - JER is credited as Pamela K. Long's Co-HW. I had no idea he was there prior to 1991.

Long was no longer in the credits by January 1991, of course, when Curlee/Demorest/Reilly started being credited. Curlee isn't in these credits (I assume one of her maternity breaks, as she was Long's Co-HW for most of Long's second stint at GL).

Thanks for posting, Alvin! :) That's new info on Reilly - I had no idea either that he was Co-HW with Pam Long. Though I do have him as an associate head writer in 1990 but I forget where I got that info since it's not in any of the 1990 end credits I have.

I love new info. LOL
