Lorraine Broderick.

 

Please God, keep that hack, Chuck Pratt, away from the project.

Not to much hate on my Pratt. He just needs to be paired with a vet like Lorraine and guarantee you would adore his AMC.  

I don’t mind the darker tone. It’s the focus on the Santos that would bother me.

I never saw pratt AMC but i really enjoyed his YR.

I guarantee you, this viewer would not. I have loathed everything of Pratt's that I have ever seen.

You and me both. That was the last time I honestly enjoyed YR. He did the impossible and made me Stan for Cricket too, he was giving her Emmy worthy material! Pratt’s AMC could have been really epic if he had an EP who cared, and just educated him on the some important beats, I.E. making Jesse’s daughter 5 years younger and maybe tying her to someone from Jesse past like Yvonne/Vera?! 
 

Pratt is far from perfect, but his canvas was fun tv. I was always eager to watch, and entertained for at least 8 months. He brought the show back to its comedic roots, balanced the show, made it fast paced again, saved the character of Annie, saved the character of Amanda, he made me care for Bobbie Eakes again,  he had some interesting family dynamics(Bianca/Josh), had Erica on the make again, his gay romance broke new ground because from my viewpoint Reese was Bisexual, and they made tv history, he did a story about a war vets, he played his black characters, there was a haves vs the have nots vibe, I even enjoyed the hospital politics between Angie and David before he was let go! For some reason, the soap press was pushing this agenda, that AMC was the worst show ever, and the fans jumped on the bandwagon and eventually got him fired. Even though his writing improved the ratings a bit. I find it interesting that the last four soaps look as bad as they do and nobody is on a Champaign to get them cut!

 

@vetsoapfan LMAO, we can agree to disagree. I just feel if we can give Ron C passes, we can do the same for Pratt!

His Y&R was unwatchable. And at AMC, both the cast and audience hated him.

Just to clarify, I loathe Ron C as much as I loathe Pratt, and give neither one of them a pass.

Eh, I'd say both Pratt and Ron have the exact same issues with writing - they can write exciting stuff for a few months, but are usually unable to keep it up and usually dwindle into nonsensical camp (rather than good camp).

[DemetriKane]

Lmao. Well at least you’re fair about it.

 

accurate.

The last time I could say I enjoyed Pratt was the early part of his GH run with Guza.  They managed to make the show mostly entertaining without being as depressingly dark as Guza solo was.

 

It was trashy, but it was fun trash.  His tone always seemed a terrible fit for Y&R and AMC to me.

It doesn’t seem like she knows much, or just staying mum about it all!

Susan is smart. If "Pine Valley" sucks she wont do it

Would be great if Finn made an appearance on Pine Valley. He is a Martin.
