What the hell is Smart TV??? Do you mean the TVs with wifi connection and apps and whatnot?

Yep. Jean Passanante invented that. She's the Philo Farnsworth of the 21st century.

That sure doesn't define Passanante …

It defines nothing that has been on network TV, at least, since the turn of the millennium.

Frank's job is to run a show owned by ABC. It doesn't matter if Ron was a member of his family. The show is a mess. Ron's stories are a mess. Have been for awhile and in my opinion have been getting worse for this entire year.

For all we know Frank gave mandates from ABC and himself to Ron, and Ron and his writing team didn't implement them, or didn't want to. Possibly including to stop being such a baby on public forums as a representative of the show.

Ron's biggest issues are ignoring what is working, dragging stories out that are paper thin plots not deserving of the time, playing too many beats and entire stories out off screen, and not being able to handle criticism and do a course correction when something is not working. Ava is his only successful creation, and that is all actress.

Too bad this Jelly is past its expiration date...

Not even close they are just getting started. We won't see their stuff until November sweeps I can't wait till their big interview comes up.

Which is what I would need to keep my eyes open while watching their "Smart TV" on GH.

True. But I think with a gig like DAYS, he'd have to tone down his writing seeing as he can't do the extravagant and over the top story he did at GH and OLTL. DAYS doesn't have the budget for it.

*sighs*

I'm on the fence with Ron as I think he can do good things when he is reigned in. For instance, his first year at OLTL.

That's what people said about that disgusting hack Sheffer too, but it never seems to happen.

I think Ron is best off just going away for a while and starting again from scratch. Without the sycophants that have given him far more power than he warranted.

Thank goodness he has that law degree to fall back on.

It's not about taping. It's about story outlines and scripts. Since the duo doesn't start on the payroll until August 10, their influence won't hit until at least late September to mid-October. They'll be working from the initial story projections from the outgoing team (basically changing direction or ending story lines) before their sole material begins to hit he air. That's how it works in daytime.

They will definitely have full reign of the show in time for sweeps.
