Members Darlotto99 Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 Im sure thats exactly what JFP wants line up all the vets and off them at once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 This just shows JFP is in complete control. Oh god jean passastinko please no. She's a complete hack. I am sure Shelly Altman is a place holder until bob Guza is hired. Honestly I am really shocked how Sony wants nothing to do with the old bell staff members. Kay Alden and Ed Scott would be great they just don't want them, I honestly think Mab left a bad taste in their mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 No. I am done with this stupid merry go round. There is only one answer to this, and they're not going to go for it. So, I'm done. Can I just marry this post? Objectivity from a soap/TV viewer? OMG :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 Ok Im gonna say this I love that PP is giving soap writers with history but not much HW tenure a chance at the helm. The network shows need to do this. We need a Harding Lemay, Claire Labine and a Michael Malone type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 No, the network shows, specifically Y&R, need to beg on their hands and knees to the few writers who knew how to write the show, were mentored by the creator and EP for the vast majority of the shows run and proved themselves with successful years of story.

Members soapfave06 Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 I feel like I should go ahead and drop the show completely now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 I think it's time that CBS/Sony stops screwing around playing musical hack soap writers from other shows and get veterans like Kay Alden back who was there nearly from the beginning or find fresh new talent that are also fans of the show (watched at least 15 years or longer), know the history, characters etc.....what they don't know, they need to make them read the Y&R books and show them some older archived footage.

Members RavenWhitney Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 Nancy Curlee and Stephen Demorest. JFP knows how talented they are; she needs to woo them. They would be perfect for Y&R and their not of advanced age and not young...Been away a while and could come in and infuse the show with emotion.

Members Vee Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 I still suspect Altman and co. (Passanante, whoever) are just placeholders for Bob Guza and possibly Meg Bennett. That's how this'll end. Because getting rid of JFP or depowering her these days is not as easy as it once was, not that it was ever that easy. I think Sony/CBS brought her in with a clear purpose, to "revolutionize" Y&R once and for all a la the "more modern" Frons-era ABC soaps and finish the transformation the last two regimes began, and I've yet to see any indication that they are less than committed to that track. She's like a wood tick now, she burrows in and never leaves unless the whole creative infrastructure is lanced and burnt out. And reuniting the Phelps/Guza "team" which enjoyed such unjust renown for almost a decade would seem ideal to Sony or CBS. I don't think Bob Guza has the first clue how to write any kind of soap anymore other than his Wal-Mart special version of a crime soap. There's a reason Bob never made it in primetime or cable dramas like some people still seem to think he should do - it's because he's not ready for that kind of primetime. He doesn't have it.

Members JONNYSBRO Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 The thing is Jill's y and r last week in ratings was 500,000 more than Maria bell. I see Eric Braden is on twitter acting all pissed off. I suggest Eric keep his anger at bay or he will find himself unemployed lol. An enemy of Jill always finds themselves job less.

Members allmc2008 Posted August 16, 2013 Members Share Posted August 16, 2013 http://daytimeconfidential.zap2it.com/2013/08/15/eric-braeden-on-the-young-and-the-restless-head-writer-shake-up-im-very-pissed-off Looks like braden not happy! just wait and see what SONY does once the show falls out of its #1 spot!! I firmly believe that JFP's luck of bringing up the ratings using the "Car Wreck on the side of the Road" concept is begining to tarnish. If this show does end it may end JFP's career!
