It’s how I feel. Ron is the first person to emulate JER’s writing since Sally and the first one to actually pull it off. 


I love that he prefers Bonnie to Adrienne.

I love that he loves John and Marlena, the King and Queen of the show.

I love that he brings back my faves (Eileen’s Susan, Sister Mary Moira, and Thomas; Billie; Bonnie and Mimi; Dr. Rolf; Laura; Jan; Vivian and Ivan; Carrie and Austin; Craig and Nancy; Jay’s Philip; Jack; Shane and Drew, etc). The only ones he hasn’t brought back yet are Patsy Pease and Tanya Boyd.

I love that he writes outrageous, over the top, campy stories with larger-than-life characters like Leo. 
 

I don’t have any complaints about his Days writing. The only thing I hate about Ron is from OLTL when he turned my girl Marty Thornhart into a psycho killer and then, in her final scene, trolled the audience by having Roger Howarth hiding behind a bush behind Marty and not allowing them to interact. I’m still bitter about that. At least the current GH writers fixed Marty with just a quick line of dialogue.

Yes! And, what he did with Challie is criminal. Perfectly good potential girl/girl couple that could have had a grand romance for a good 3-4 years & what did he do? Put them on one day per week, if that, and wrote them more as male fantasy objects than as women-loving young adults! He was breaking them up the week of their 6-month anniversary.

Not trolling. Just pointing out that those soaps were boring. Ron’s soaps are exciting. As I said, he brings the camp and outrageousness that Days is well known for. Reilly is my hero and Ron comes pretty close. 

I had to wait over a decade for my soap to get proper writing again so of course I’m going to be in Ron’s corner.

Dena Higley and the vile Gary Tomlin do not get enough hate on this board. I wish y’all had this hatred energy for them. 

Maybe here but he does have fans across the internet.

Again, your level of hatred for Higley, Tomlin, Sheffer, and Griffith should be much, much higher than your hatred for Ron.

Have you never seen me post? Clearly not, because, if you had, you'd known I've been against Josh Griffith since day one of his return to The Young and the Restless. Once again, enjoy your corner alone. He's a s**t writer. Always has been. Always will be. And nothing will change my POV on wanting his stale, recycled, entitled, self-serving ass to be FIRED!

Nothing’s going to change my mind either. Stalemate. 
 

We will never get Eileen back as Susan if something happened to Ron. 
 

I’m backing the writer who will feature/bring back all of my faves: Marlena, John, Eileen’s characters, Lisa’s Billie, Bonnie, Mimi, Carrie, Austin, Hattie, Dr. Rolf, Edmund, Jack and Jennifer (Missy), Jan, Vivian, and Ivan.

    • That was so surprising to me today. I didn’t see any spoilers that this was coming up so I loved it!
    • Well, VI was leaving, and while Long admits that killing him was stupid...I do agree with letting him go with a big bang...body missing.  They spent a lot of time and money on Infinity, (which I think might have gotten a bit of a better reputation had it not been the harbinger of a total tonal change with the Bauers and Reardon's decimated and its all Reva and the Lewis and the weird people hanging out around Kyle) so they needed it to end dramatically. They could have done so much more with having Alex go after Kyle and Billy, but that ends and she starts moping over weird and boring Simon. With Kurt..what were you going to do.. cute but boring and perfect and with ties to no one (they had a nice little thing where Bea took him under her wing when everyone left but then she did too..) If they had the balls they would have had Rick and Mindy jump in the sack ( I know, Mindy should have learned birth control by then) I would have had it be Mindy who knows about Rick's drug use and she tries to help him...(not that nobody who came and went) of course, Kurt and Roxie misunderstand..that on top of her bad Sampson Girl thing leaves him to leave her temporarily, and in grand soap tradition, Rick and Mindy console each other (again, I would write it that they always really did, and Mindy rushed into things with Kurt) and she gets knocked up, and loving Rick but also Kurt she chooses to believe it is Kurts (which I could see Princess Mindy doing "My life is perfect and I will it that way, this is Kurts kid")But, she had the dumb model thing, then she burned down the house he was building, she tried to get prefers and he dies (but also Kobe was the one who built him up, then she was gone when he was let go.) Ross believe it or not is one of the last of the "old guard" characters, beside Ed (who is now FauxEd) and Maureen, and Henry and Van (who is ties to being the Lewis family mope.) JVD has made jokes that they didn't write him out as they simply forgot that he was there!
    • Excellent! The OLTL-GH promo places this and the RH episode (which I assume aired directly before this AMC) as airing during the week of Aug. 20.
    • Thanks! There's never enough early 1980s AMC around.    The only actor I don't recognize is the actress playing Wanda, Mike's agent.
    • lol he sounds like he's speaking as Randy    
    • Dani going to Bill's house is karma for how he messes with Martin. It is totally separate, but I can't feel sorry for Bill when he's constantly antagonizing a family he says he wants nothing to do with.
    • I understand what Lois did. I can see everyone's side, even if I don't agree with them.  That  proves it's a good story    Lois is far from ruined
    • Oh wow. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
