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

    • Okay...I'm just going to call it. Ambyr Michelle is the breakout star of this show with the young set hands down! There is no character like Eva that pulls my heart strings, and she's playing it perfectly. If Eva and Leslie are on, it's a good episode! If written properly, Eva and Kat's rivalry is one that could go on for YEARS. Of course, it's fun to speculate about who is really whom, but I could see them developing as frenemies after some time. They really need a guy to tussle over to amp it up. Tomas is pretty, but the actor has got to loosen up some in his scenes, I think. He is improving though. It would be good to introduce a new young man in that story for a foursome.  Martin and Smitty finally feel like a real couple to me, too.
    • I'll be that guy and say I don't think TMG is a fool. This is a popular contract role on a year-round soap opera for a woman of a certain age (to say nothing of a woman of color). If I'm her I pull a Kimberlin Brown and ride this til the wheels fall off.
    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
