when she become Associate head writer when Pratt took over or was she already Associate Head Writer when Josh Griffith took over then was promoted?

I guess I should've listed her as Co-HW because that's what the Daytime Emmys have her listed as.  I'll change it.

 

 

Interesting that GH has Chris Whitesell as "Associate Writer" on the Daytime Emmy nominated list.

Where's this list you are referring to? Never mind, found it!  Yes, interesting.

He was in between Boyd and Bibel. 

 

 

 

GH:

It looks Katherine Schock moved over to scripts. 

When did Lucky Gold last air on Y&R?

Check the first page.

IMDB:  Matt Clifford

Born 1979/Married:

A native of Los Angeles, Matt has worked in several areas of the television and film industry. Starting out as a production assistant, he segued into writing, where he worked as a writer's assistant to the co-creator of King of Queens. He attended Michigan State University where he studied theatre arts and literature.

Brent Boyd announced on twitter that he was out at YR as of 3/10 and today his name no longer in credits.  So do the math as to how far ahead the scripts are edited.

Did anyone notice that Sara Bibel was listed twice in the opening of today's episode; and Kay Alden's name didn't appear

Someone mentioned it in the Y&R thread. It might have been just a typo.

So, what is the current writer count for Y&R?  It seems like it has less and less writers...which I find promising.

Sally Sussman, sadly sole head writer

Kay Alden, ineffectual story consultant

Sara Bibel, script editor

 

Nervous Breakdown Writers

Natalie Slater

Michael Conforti

Jeff Beldner

Chris Dunn

Lisa Seidman

 

Script Hacks

Janice Esser (despite her talent, can't make this drivel work)

Amanda Beall (she's no Patrick Mulcahey)

Susan Dansby (hang in there girl!)

Michael Montgomery (replaced veteran Rebecca Taylor/paid minimum scale most likely to meet budget demands)

Christian McLaughlin (replaced veteran Kate Hall/every episode is gayer than the last, this isn't Dynasty darling; he gets the campy episodes I guess)

 

 

Stumbled upon this interview with Mary O'Leary that was conducted late last year - she talks about her history on various soaps and even the producing process of soaps.
