Absolutely! IMO Mulcahey wrote the perfect Stephanie... Brooke... and Taylor scenes. Any scene with any of these characters he could do perfectly. At times when he writes for Brooke you could almost sense that extra extra iciness (she was already pretty icy) he gave Iris in Texas. He has this particular style of bitchy, intelligent comebacks that are so memorable, they stay with you forever. Recently I was checking which episodes he wrote dialogue on... and every single one of them had something I remembered, pretty much every one. To this day nobody has written better dialogue for Brooke in the 2005+ era. He KNEW who this woman is. This is the issue the show has in modern days. The dialogue writers have no idea what Brooke is about, they don't know her compulsions, they don't care. She is boring, one note, she hasn't given a smart comeback to anyone in YEARS. And when Mulcahey wrote for Stephanie - she could kill you with words. The verbal assassin. SO BRUTAL. All of this reminds me how important dialogue writers are. How crucial. We've been talking on this topic in the BTG thread for so long.
