Members titan1978 Posted September 27, 2014 Members Share Posted September 27, 2014 Well in Guza's case he's been riding on that first year as HW on GH for close to 20 years. As good as SB was, were the female characters well served? It seems like every single woman between 20 and 40 was raped on that show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 I'd be lying if I said all the rapes weren't disturbing, which they were. Also, Victoria Lane took advantage of Cruz when he was in a fevered state (he thought she was Eden). Thankfully, the show had strong actors who did the best they could - and Marcy Walker more than earned the Emmy she won in 1989 for the Eden rape story. It's amazing that will all the behind the scenes battles (the Dobsons vs. NBC and New World Productions) that everything stayed as smooth as it did onscreen as long as it did.

Members cassadine1991 Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Eden's rape was pretty graphic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 It was, but at least the acting and writing was top notch - most especially by Walker and A Martinez. The real cop-out was the reveal of the rapist, but I won't say anymore about that. Anyway - Pratt and JFP back together on another soap. As the old saying goes, those who do not learn from history (like the networks) are doomed to repeat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Didn't Pratt write Eden 's rape? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 At that time, he was the co-head with Anne Howard Bailey. Other writers on the staff then were the great Patrick Mulcahey, Courtney Sherman Simon, Frank Salisbury, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Chris B Posted October 2, 2014 Members Share Posted October 2, 2014 Wow. Just read on Twitter that the new SID says that in addition to Sally Sussman Morina, KAY ALDEN submitted a story pitch to be the new HW of Y&R and "someone" pushed for Pratt. KAY [!@#$%^&*] ALDEN wanted to return and they said no. Wow. That level of disrespect might be enough to make her stay away forever, even when they eventually do come calling. So sad.

Members JONNYSBRO Posted October 3, 2014 Members Share Posted October 3, 2014 Wow no Kay Alden is stupid really. She's a classic soap writer. In fact Kay and Jean would have been a great team. The two of them together would have been the dynamic duo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted October 3, 2014 Members Share Posted October 3, 2014 You need to go somewhere with that mess. Kay should've been brought back as sole HW and been allowed to assemble the team she thought best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
