Members LeClerc Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 I'm actually kind of surprised Passanante agreed to this given how tight she and Ron are. Guess that friendship is over and Ron will never talk to her again. As has been mentioned Altman was better during her brief solo period at Y&R before Passanante joined her. I am a bit curious what Altman's writing style is like away from JFP. It was going to be Passanante or Tomlin because Valentini doesn't have many writer connections. Anyways Altman & Passanante aren't going to make the necessary changes because 1) They are too tight with Ron and probably think what he has done is brilliant and 2) These two don't make big moves. I think the change with these two will be akin to when Garin Wolf (later joined by Altman) replaced Bob Guza. eg. They will use Monica a tiny bit more at first and make a few other symbolic efforts around the edges but there won't be that much difference.

Members Vee Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Jean Passanante's AMC is still one of the top 5 worst soaps I have ever seen, and from what I saw her ATWT seemed to be written by mental deficients. She may be a great breakdown writer, but she can't headwrite. Fortunately for ABC, she is cheap and well-experienced. I can understand wanting to break the Frank/Ron cabal and I agree with a change being necessary, but much like sizzurp, Jean Passanante is never an answer to any problem we may face in life.

Members Gray Bunny Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Exactly. And perhaps nobody else wants the job at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 I think more are just happy that Ron Carlivati is gone as HW. Seeing his HW world fall apart and his tantrums at his place are making most if not all SON members happy…LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Whatevs! This is a great day and Passante, much to my surprise, did some really good things with YR. Anything is better than moRon! But why is Frank still employed?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Nah. Only good thing I saw was half a plotline with Phyllis and Kelly a month before she was out of the credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted July 24, 2015 Author Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Anyone know how Altman's work in the past was? Good? Awful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Okie dokie, but you can weep for moRon elsewhere. No one else will miss him! Nothing will ever be worse than the GH he was [!@#$%^&*] up on a daily basis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Didn't Altman co-headwrite with Garin Wolfe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 I guess Carlivati won't be crowing anymore on Twitter…..LOL He will probably close his Twitter feed….LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AdelaideCate007 Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Awful. Some of it is worse than anything Ive seen Ron do. Anyone who thinks they're trading up is sorely mistaken. These two are just a different version of crap. Passante on AMC and Altman on AW were two of the worst things I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Shawn Posted July 24, 2015 Members Share Posted July 24, 2015 Hiring JP is proof that ABC wants to kill GH for good. I wonder if RC will seek comfort by stuffing himself with Mallomars and men in bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
