Members Soapsuds Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 Corday has lost his marbles. He should sue all the HW hacks that have ruined his parents show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 From the deadline.com article: The filing slathers it up more by claiming that Sony is tightening its hold of late by “imposing solely on Corday the burden of absorbing the multi-million dollar annual operating deficits due to an inadequate NBC license fee and mandating an inefficient, costly production schedule.” Well, I'm glad we're not the ONLY ones who recognize that taping 10 years in advance, and on a budget of one half-penny per week, is doing the show no good. Honestly, Ken Corday must be on the verge of running a commercial like this one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eboneece Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 The article says that Sony owns 100% of Y&R. Since when? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 If DAYS continues to generate any sort of revenues for SONY, what do you want to bet they're privately funneling that cash to Y&R?

victoria foxton Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 This BTS drama going on is way more interesting than the show itself. It would nice to see Days with nice production values. The show is looking pitiful. Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 If that's the case, I hope Corday gets every penny of that $20mil they are asking. It's disgusting to make people work so hard and show no profit because it's being funneled elsewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 There were rumors (just rumors) about Frons and the budget spigot for OLTL/AMC and GH back in the day. I don't trust Corday, but I have no problem believing this. Hard to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted February 11, 2019 Webmaster Share Posted February 11, 2019 The biggest piece of this that I found interesting was that Corday Productions is demanding significant control of the show be put back in its hands, essentially confirming that the major decisions people blamed on Ken Corday and the producers/writers was actually because of Sony.

Members Darn Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 Explain. I love when you go into details about stuff I know nothing about. Were those rumors about the international distribution right of ABC daytime too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 11, 2019 Members Share Posted February 11, 2019 Wow, I really thought that if anyone involved in daytime sued Sony, it would've been because of something Y&R related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
