Members YRfan23 Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 He apparently was the one that made some of the scripts correctly acknowledge history that was ignored over the years.....I’d choose him as HW for bold any day over Thudley but too late now...

Members Cruising Soaps Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 Bring him to Y&R. Anyone else would be better with the crap we have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted November 8, 2019 Author Administrator Share Posted November 8, 2019 If he does stay in daytime, my guess is he'll go to Y&R or GH but I'd bet on Y&R. I can't see Valentini getting rid of someone to make room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 I wonder how he'd feel going back to an hour show after all those years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wendy Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 To show how old I am, I still remember Patrick Mulcahey penning that odd as hell episode on Santa Barbara, "The Capwell Zone", where Mason and Julia were aliens trying to get drippy Greg Richards to accept his Capwell roots. I recall reading in SOD how either NLG or Lane Davies said Mulcahey wrote their dialogue in iambic pentameter. The man had mad skills. And then he penned a great period of GH as far as NLG's Alexis/Natasha roots and Helena's resurgence/Stefan's intro went. I miss when good writers were just allowed to write without networks screwing them over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members titan1978 Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 His work on Guiding Light and GH was pretty amazing. I’ve never paid attention to B&B. I can’t imagine a worse fit than with him and Valentini. Valentini is all plot first, and only. I always thought Mulcahey wrote for character first, and if that moved the plot forward great. But it did it with depth and reflection and sometimes wit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 I’ve enjoyed Mulcahey’s Tweets in recent months talking about his time at GL and working with both Marland and Curlee/Demorest (he loved both of those stints and those people) That said, I don’t think the current daytime climate is the right place for anyone with a creative mindset. He’s better off trying to create a show for some nice cable network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) ICAM. Patrick Mulcahey is truly the best thing that ever happened to the otherwise execrable B&B. Bradley Bell will be lost without him. Or steaming. Hell, I might even watch Jamey Giddens' crapfest of a show if Mulcahey were to join his staff. (Not that I'm wishing "Ambitions" on the likes of Patrick Mulcahey, lol!) If Patrick Mulcahey actually reads SON, please know that I'd be down for a series set around the S&M world if he's the one behind it. Just saying!

Members sheilaforever Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 This sucks. I don't see him on any other of the soaps - simply because they cannot pay for his salary. It's been great to have him write for B&B! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 I definitely think it's sad he's leaving B&B, but his talents were wasted there. As long as Bradley Bell is still HW, everybodys talents are wasted on that silly show. I'd love to see him in daytime (Y&R for example), but as yall said, he'd be wasting his time. Hopefully he does get a surprising primetime or streaming gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 Ron Carlivati started following Mulcahey a few months ago on Twitter...HMMMMM Mulcahey and Beth Maitland started following each other on Twitter too. What if Ron and Patrick took over Y&R when they fire Josh and Days is cancelled in early 2020? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 It's a small industry, it's not uncommon for people who've never worked together to know one another or follow one another on social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted November 8, 2019 Members Share Posted November 8, 2019 I would hope Patrick has higher standards then to work with Ron in any capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted November 16, 2019 Members Share Posted November 16, 2019 James Harmon Brown promoted to associate head writer on Y&R. And he wrote today's script. I wonder if they're grooming Beall as Head Writer and Brown as co head when they dump Griffith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
