I was about to ask but I see everyone else beat me to it re: Altman's writing and didn't she write with Wolfe?

With this change, what are the fates for the OLTL 2 I wonder...

Y'all are acting as if you wouldn't lap up "mediocre" GH over the current travesty in a f-cking HEARTBEAT. Yeah, OK!

They were never going to hire any of the 2.0 teams or Karen Harris or Claire Labine. Never. Unfortunately.

Thanks for letting me know but, I assure you, I am not. Altman had some decent things/ideas/stories going on on Y&R, and her Adam and Phyllis/Kelly stories actually were somewhat good.

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm certainly not defending Pissante. I wish she were gone from daytime. But, since everyone likes to bring up previous HW gigs, I'll bring up the one they had together that wasn't atrocious and actually got me to somewhat commit daily to my favorite show yet again.

What those two did on Y&R (as mediocre to bad as it was), is TONS better than Ron's work. This says more about Ron. Ron was like a drugged out, half-dying James E. Reilly on his worse day. The pit of the pits. No comparison. While I complained about Sharon or the travesty of a story for Hillary/Devon, etc, all that was STILL MUCH MUCH MUCH better than the almost cosmically major BS that Ron has been doing for years. I will welcome them (and then go on hating them).

Called it! smile.png But it really was just an educated guess. LOL But I'm disappointed by his replacements because once again we get recycled HWs who failed at other shows. I would've loved to see someone new, or promoting someone on the staff who's never been HW before.

So this gets Ron fired (new lows and ties lows):

And he's replaced by a team that got demoted at Y&R just last summer because of the same thing!

Did I say it wasn't?

I do fear Jean might keep Roger because of her years writing horrific [!@#$%^&*] for him at ATWT.

      DAYS: November 2025 Discussion Thread

      Welcome back, Shawn Douglas! It's been a while. It really is too bad that the writers don't really have an interest in the character because there are still a lot of ways that he can be used effectively on the canvas. He should have been a part of the 60th anniversary celebrations as well. If anything, just to represent Bo and Hope. And I'd much rather see Jada paired with him than possibly with Theo. But I enjoyed him getting caught up with Belle, and comforting her. I'm sure they'll find their way back to each other at some point but I do like them as divorced friends. I just hope we see it play out onscreen. Belle being a dick about Sami again was unnecessary though. And we finally saw Liam again!  I'm curious to see how this storyline is going to play out, and who's going to be weaved into it. He and Abe do work well together too. And we learned that he has a kid. Hopefully, we'll learn more about his character in the future. But I'm not really sure about Johnny and Chanel suddenly having problems with raising Trey. They've wanted a baby for so long, so I don't understand why this is even an issue. They should know by now what it's like to raise a baby. But I did enjoy Johnny's scenes with EJ, and that Johnny still hasn't refused to forgive him. This storyline was/is very clunky, but having the two of them be at odds is the right decision. There's so much story potential that can be drawn from that. As for Chad... there was no time for us to see his reunion with Will, but there's time for us to see him talking BS with Leo? I don't get it. And I don't get all this random dating app stuff either. Leo and Javi were boring af too. If we're forced to endure them, can they at least have some real conflict? The two of them losing the baby was the perfect opportunity for it.

      I enjoy BF better on Days than on YR.   Chad is greater than Cane, in my opinion.

      That was the best part of Tuesday's episode.  Martin and Smitty and their family are boring.

      Crew Morrow's acting on Tuesday's episode was just dreadful. The weird faces he was making were just awful

      GH: Classic Thread

      Creatively, he probably should have stayed with The Doctors, where he stood out as an antihero lead. Not sure what happened with GH. He didn't have the same impact. Was it bad writing, not clicking with co-stars? Didn't they gave him a boat load of money to join GH in 1976? Was Mark Dante just a toned-down version of Nick Bellini? Were they basically the same character?
