Administrator Toups Posted September 1, 2015 Author Administrator Share Posted September 1, 2015 Interesting that he left before Ron was fired. Wonder what his ABC project is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted September 1, 2015 Members Share Posted September 1, 2015 Sonia Blangiardo will be directing at least one Days episode to air Feb 2016. Good. That show desperately needs new directors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BetterForgotten Posted September 1, 2015 Members Share Posted September 1, 2015 I wonder if McKinsey left GH completely or if he's just freelancing at DAYS. If he left GH, what a loss for them, he's been there on and off since the early 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted September 1, 2015 Author Administrator Share Posted September 1, 2015 It looks like he's freelancing because he's still being credited at GH and GH doesn't tape as far in advance as DAYS does. He usually had the most episodes under JFP, but he's been directing less during Frank's regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted September 2, 2015 Members Share Posted September 2, 2015 With Albert Alarr now Co-EP and directing less, I guess they are rotating freelance directors. Scott McKinsey, Sonia Blangiardo, Noel Maxam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted September 2, 2015 Members Share Posted September 2, 2015 Good! Other than the costume design, the directing has been lackluster at best and downright awful for years. Ken has to stop hiring friends and let the oldies but goodies retire (Stein/Sogard) and cut his losses with Williford and Johnson who are not inspired directors. The directing needs complete overhaul. It seems they totally get it and are hiring some of the best. Maxam was their best director hands down and McKinsey is a classy artist/director all the way. Just his choice of establishing shot for Teresa coming down the staircase was a nice opening touch that illuminates for the audience that she's scratched and clawed her way to the mansion. Nice work Scott. But Corday needs to let Albert do the work and maintain the best behind the scenes. Ken has interfered and cut great people (Ed Scott, Maxam, Kathryn Foster for his friends).

Members Soapsuds Posted September 11, 2015 Members Share Posted September 11, 2015 Had Noel left? For some reason I thought he was still directing on Days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RavenWhitney Posted September 14, 2015 Members Share Posted September 14, 2015 Edwin Klein confirmed on his FB page that he left YR as script/story continuity coordinator on 9/1 and joined the writing team of Days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted September 14, 2015 Members Share Posted September 14, 2015 Wasn't he brought in with Griffith at Y&R? So, I guess it makes sense. Brent Boyd was also a friend of Griffith's, and I wonder if he'll defect too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
