Good going Mal Young

Oh wow....surprised. I thought her HW was rather boring and really slow but she is better than what Y&R has had in years. I might just tune in again since I gave up on B&B and Days is getting on my last nerve. So right now I am not watching any soaps.

She's a consultant. Do soaps still have them? I remember ATWT back in the 80's had a consultant before Douglas Marland took over permanently.

Yes! So happy Kay is coming back too! Can't get much better than that other than raising Bill Bell from the dead. 

Great chance to let her give notes, add depth to the show, bring the characters back to their cores, and for her to not have to fight with the network constantly to achieve her vision because she isn't driving the show.  Young is doing so much right!

Now if he is listening...Mel that is...he needs to bring back Trent Jones!

This is incredible. 

That's great. I wasn't sure what was going on with her after the serious accident she had so I'm glad she's still able to help and it's just that it took this long for them to get a clue. 

 

I wonder if no one cared up to now or if someone at CBS or Sony who was in the way has gone.

Thank God. 

 

I hope they both fix this sh-t show, so I can reconsider watching again.

Oh my God.

This is absolutely incredible.  It really seems like they are actually caring again.  I wonder how HARD Angelique (sp?) had to work to get this?  Maybe, and perhaps this is too soon, but perhaps this is the jolt Daytime needs???

I am near tears! I have been waiting for these news for basically TEN YEARS. I am happy for my show for at least making some good moves. A new, surprising, good executive producer. A HW that just MAY be able to do some good work who brings back the only other Y&R headwriter who has ever delivered stellar writing except for Bill Bell. They're making moves. And once you're in the door, there's no telling....

 

It is a good day!

 

 

Whoa.

I am so starting to watch again.

Am I dreaming?!?!?!....

Fantastic news that Kay is returning. Cant believe she has been gone from YR nearly 10 years. She was Bills right hand man. Something tells me the Bells are having influence. I felt like after the Maria Bell disaster that Sony was not interesred in Bell YR. Jill and Chuck YR its no secret the Bells hated it and were locked out of the show. I heard Bill Bell Jr hadnt visited the show until Mal took over. Mal is a smart man really instead of revamping YR give us the YR that made it so glorious. Whats sad is Alden was fired in 2006 by LML. She was with the show for 33 years it was a sad day.
