Is that bad of me to say?

Nope. In fact, I'd have preferred Laura Harrier's first scenes as Destiny to have been with Shaun instead of at The Viper Room Shelter.

Yeah, I had a feeling there was a mandate (which gives me my one pause about Jeff and Rich - I feel they should've known better and saw how screwed up ABC handled things with their 'youth obsession' but guess not) but in any event, MM/ES couldn't handle the balance that SBH (just a gut feeling it was mostly her) could so still good riddance for me.

As I was unhappy with AMC's balance while feeling good about OLTL (save the lack of Dorian that JP has assured will be corrected) I'm hoping for the best with both. I'm hopeful with AMC (not particularly because of CH/LK who don't go predate 2002 - HATED the writing for 2002-after ... but because Cady said the HW change was due to PP responding to complaints about the balance) while kind of scared for what OLTL will become because I liked what they (SBH/TR) were doing and I have no idea who these new HWs are or their history. I've had no use for 'primetime' tv since Everybody Loves Raymond/Men In Trees left the airwaves. So their writing history means nothing to me.

I don't care for 'squish' names either but I'm sick to death of typing these particular names out so there you have it.

Ha, fair enough about your use of the squish names--at least now I always know who you're referring to them when you use them. :;)

You may have a point about Jeff and Rich but I think they have shown that they're willing to, as quickly as possible, change things (unfortunately now this will take a while to play out on screen) and I suspect by now people have realized that AMC needs more story for characters like Brooke. So I still have faith--though I know as it stands, I'm enjoying the show more than you, I'd love to see much more of my beloved Brooke in particular.

LK helped compile all the archival stuff for the 1995 All My Children coffee table book--according to Agnes and the book's credits, so she seems to have a strong knowledge of the show actually--I mentioned that H COrley told me how good a choice he thought she would be (and he wrote some amazing AMC stuff under Broderick in particular). Hayes writes not great scripts--and has an association with Melrose Place which is the wrong direction for AMC (as Pratt's tenure showed--Pratt being probably Melrose's longest running writer) but I think he has shown that he has some good story ideas and I believe that may turn out to be his strength.

Almost all of the #OLTL cast and supporting actors are here today shooting big group scenes. What do you think is going on?

And in formal wear. They are seriously all so pretty. So excited- I love episodes featuring the whole cast in fancy clothes.Can't remember the last time we had that on OLTL

Is it a black and white wedding...unless it is Jack graduating from high school?

Jack isn't graduating if he's going to summer school.

I wrote an e-mail to Jeff Kwantinetz from PP a few days ago to ask him if it will ever be explained on the show how Cutter got out of prison, and he responded back to me today saying he'll bring it up, and it's been over a year though, and he also thanked me for my input and his support!

I think that's fantastic that he was receptive and replied to your e-mail! You gotta hand it to technology, for, as much as I love letters, snail mail couldn't have gotten the job done in this instance.

Now that you've got an open line, you should suggest they use the theme song version posted on the TOLN site. Tell him we've taken a poll, and everybody seems to prefer the 'lush' (in the words of Cheap) version posted on the TOLN site. I know that it a longer version but if they could include the intro, even occasionally, that's be great.biggrin.png

WHY DO YOU CARE SO GOD DAMN MUCH ABOUT A PLOT POINT NO ONE EVEN THINKS ABOUT?!?

It's seriously puzzling, maddening, confusing...gah.. I've never used ignore but this influx of just...annoying...as of late is changing that.

Is there an email for Jeff K other than the soapsalive one? Id love to reach out- not about Cutter :)

Because it doesn't make sense to me why the online version of OLTL would begin with Cutter back in Llanview working as a manager and club promoter at Blair's new nightclub without explaining how Alex Olanov (or someone else) got him out of prison, and how returned to town and got hired by Blair to work at her club!
