Members JONNYSBRO Posted February 28, 2016 Members Share Posted February 28, 2016 Honestly Jean is about to celebrate 25 years in daytime. She has been head writer for OLTL, AW, ATWT,YR and now GH. So many stories she has crafted. I would say her best storyline work was the bianca lesbian storyline on amc. The scenes she wrote between Lucci and Reigal were fabulous. What was your favorite Jean P storyline of 25 years? So many to choose from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victoria foxton Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Jeanine P didn't write Bianca's coming out. That was the legendary Agnes Nixon. Jeanine P destroyed Laura's personality. From likable rough around the edges street kid to Leo obsessed beyotch. Jeanine P badly killed off Gillian for no reason. Jeanine P also did the Libidozone mess. Everyone in town was horny yet they acted so tame. Jeanine P's ATWT was a snooze fest. Emily became a call girl. Alison a porn star hooked on crystal meth. A badly recast Meg was character assassinated as were many other characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GregNYC Posted February 29, 2016 Members Share Posted February 29, 2016 Pissin' Aunty also killed off ATWT's Bryant and Rose (as co-HW), Jennifer and Dusty for no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted March 1, 2016 Members Share Posted March 1, 2016 Yes, Jean was headwriter of AW when it was cancelled, ATWT when it was cancelled; she was fired from YR after 12 months as head writer. She was fired from AMC (and Agnes didn't protest); she was fired from OLTL as headwriter and remember she wasn't sole headwriter, she wasn't even part of a duo! ABC hired two other writers (Sloane and Laiman and they wrote by committee). I met Jean at NYU during a soap writing course, before she was working on writing staffs; she clearly loved soaps but she's not a great headwriter. She probably was a mature, stabilizing force on Ron's GH and OLTL teams. GH is messy right now; not inspired and parts are good but the whole is not quite working...

Members KMan101 Posted March 1, 2016 Members Share Posted March 1, 2016 Never really thought much about this because back in the day I never bothered with knowing the writers, but seeing who Pissy wrote out on other shows that usually seems to be the time I tuned out at the time. Interesting .... I'm about a big a fan of hers as I am Higley. How does this person keep getting the gig? Does no one else truly not want it? I couldn't blame anyone who didn't want the job due to all of the interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kylefish76 Posted March 1, 2016 Members Share Posted March 1, 2016 i liked Laura #1. Then when Roscoe Born came on & Lauren Roman went off contract it didny make sense. Laura was the tie to Jim but she skips town. Never liked Laura #2, Laura Allen is a good actress but it was Laura Kirk English in name only as Laura seemed to adopt a new personality depending on how the wind blew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 It's a shame Laura had a lot of potential. Lorraine did a great job creating her. Jeanine P destroyed the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
