LeClerc Members Share Posted March 24, 2020 I may be wrong, but I get the feeling that TC did in fact write the script, perhaps on a trial basis and then they didn't pick him up after his trial script(s). Thus him saying that Y&R didn't "hire" him, but I haven't seen him flat out say he didn't write it. It just seems like he tried to get a job there, they said "No thanks", and now he's trying to save face, going on about how how happy he is with his current gig. Or not.

BetterForgotten Members Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) He did get defensive when that troll came after him, lol. I'm sure those '70 million fans' have no idea who the hell he is or what he's written though... Whatever the case, I wonder if the WGA has rules that state if you're credited, you still must be paid regardless if you actually wrote it or not...

VanessaReardon Share Posted March 26, 2020 Is Casiello now officially a scriptwriter? Or will he get a first listed and last listed on March 24 credit? Link to post Share on other sites

Casiello denied he's back as a script writer but I don't believe it was a production error. His websoap ended and he probably wrote a few terrible spec scripts and didn't get hired at Y&R.

EllenP Members Share Posted March 26, 2020 Well, I wish Tom well, whatever the case may be. I have always appreciated his insights into the recent (2000-present) soap writing process via twitter or blog posts. Link to post Share on other sites

BetterForgotten Members Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) OK, they wouldn't make a "mistake" twice. I'm now inclined to believe his trial never got picked up and he's trying to save face on Twitter. Edited April 7, 2020 by BetterForgotten Link to post Share on other sites

DRW50 Members Share Posted April 7, 2020 I saw someone on Twitter in disbelief that Victor was saying "cool your jets." When I read that I wondered if it was the work of the man who gave us the iconic "cut the crap!" Was that him? Link to post Share on other sites
LondonScribe Members Share Posted April 7, 2020 I believe so. Think he was also the ‘genius’ behind “Jack Abbott, Black Rabbit”? Link to post Share on other sites

But yet he downgraded himself to write scripts for 4 million viewers to enjoy. lol And he wasn’t hired longterm. Egg on his face. Link to post Share on other sites
RavenWhitney Members Share Posted April 8, 2020 Anne Shoettle out as scriptwriter at YR is pretty surprising; she hasn't written scripts in several months. Link to post Share on other sites
