JFP and Ron would not mix well, nor would she work for Corday.  She's hopefully done as a daytime EP.  I can't imagine a worse fit for his type of stories.

 

I highly doubt he has been in place long considering Dena tweeted she was very recently fired as the announcement was made public.

Ron became FB friends with Meng a few years ago.  I would suspect Sony/Corday looked at him back when OLTL was being cancelled. Ron was hot property and ABC kept him on.  Ron posted in early Jan that he was out in LA; clearly this writer switch was in the work for months and I bet Ron's been watching both Days and YR; hell Sony may have been paying him as a consultant for the last six months or year.  Who knows.  Ron is not coming in completely cold turkey though.  Stories have had to been laid out given their shooting schedule.  They were just waiting to see if NBC decided to renew the show.  They must know that they are getting at least till end of 2018 or they wouldn't have changed up the head writers.  Now let's purge a few of the writers.  We don't need 17 writers and Ron has never worked with such a large staff.  I think Dave Ryan and Elizabeth Snyder will go from the breakdown staff; and David Cherrill and Cyndy Kelly will go from the script staff.  

 

So amazing to see who has started following Carlivati on Twitter:  Michael Muhney (wants a job); Tracy Melchior (wants a job); Galen Gering (wants to keep his job); Kyle Lowder (wants a job); James Reynolds (wants to keep his job); and Brandon Beemer.  Kissing some head writer butt.  LOL

    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
    • oh, definitely! It's too bad she hit the start of a rough transition period for the show. She shines, but she's stuck with bad story and some (if not exactly bad) not great co-stars.  Uh, who did Maureen O'Sullivan play? (Sigh--and only if I'd understood exactly who and how wonderful Teresa Wright was in '86) God, the summer of '84 was literally one event after another. Kim's outfit alone must've been worth a small fortune. And poor Maeve. She looks so uncomfortable. Rebecca Hollen told a story on Locher Room where Maeve dropped the f-bomb during the shooting of it. For some reason, she wasn't being listened to, and had just had enough. As a producer, I would've been holding my breath as my pregnant actress kept walking around strange and undoubtably uneven sets in that long skirt.
