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.

    • 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!!!
    • The character of Lois has been ruined and trashed. There's no coming back from this mess. The current production and writing team have had no idea as to what made her special to begin with. She had a bit of moral fiber. Her treatment on the show is not atypical though, as most characters will get trashed, even beyond redemption, if it serves the current flavor of the month plotline.
    • No idea if this one had ever been up before or what the exact date is, but it's always good to look at/save the new AMC content while you can. If you're here for the drama there is some delirium with Adam and Erica about 10-12 minutes in.

    • I think there's a story to tell in someone who always believed in honesty and integrity being emmeshed in so many lies, but I agree that it wasn't very well laid out over the last few months. I think if I was more invested in Lois, I would have more of an issue than I do. Few can hold up against Jane. This is one of those cases where I think mentioning who already switched babies or have long-lost children would just take away from the fallout. If Lulu wants to drag Brook Lyn for hypocrisy there is probably still time (if the show bothers). I don't think anyone would claim these are the best GH episodes ever. It may be very lowered expectations at play. But I do think that scenes like yesterdays were some of Tracy's best, as she is a character who is often not allowed that type of moment.
    • You would think that, wouldn't you? I'd almost think they needed the money to get Robert Newman back, but they also had to know Larkin wasn't going to stick around and play second banana either. I don't get what the writers thought they were doing with Calla. Long liked using actors from Texas, but other than Alex/Bev McKinsey, the characters she wrote for them seemed blah.
    • Bo has a bad history with kids named Zach. (too soon?)
    • Christie said in her interview this week -- that before taping this, she had recently started taking acting classes again, and had been doing some work in England, so that helped her to jump into Carrie for this (as well as it being all so familiar, it really was home.)
