2024: The Directors and Writers Thread

[Contessa Donatella]

Thanks! When I saw her name I wondered who she was! Cannot say enough about what a fine job she did. That, of course, applies to the whole company today!

Simone Hawthorne wrote Friday's Days script.

She wrote 32 scripts on Y&R in 2022/23 over a 9 month period and one Ambitions episode (story).

Y&R current writing team with Lisa Connor not going on contract after 7 freelance scripts and Beall's demotion. What an odd assortment of writers.

I have nothing against Jeff Beldner.  He wrote some great stuff for AMC and ATWT.  But I've never thought that Y&R was the right show for him.  DAYS, GH?  Maybe.  But not Y&R.

Wow so no co-HW. Dear God in Heaven...

Apparently Ron's last Day episode is Wednesday, April 23rd. We have 17 more weeks/88 episodes of his crap.

Can’t wait!

We need to have a party on the 23rd.

4 months of episodes to go. I actually am enjoying the show for the most part, until Leo shows up and tries my patience. I don't think it'll be too much of a slog since I thought the promo material looked promising and it was still all his work, right?

[Taoboi]

4 months to go. Wow.

[TEdgeofNight]

Leo is on just as much under the new writers. Paula & Jeanne love Leo. 

[detroitpiston]

That’s unfortunate.

How do you know this?

[Contessa Donatella]

I kinda doubt that it's so. 

Was there a new writer on GH today?

[VelekaCarruthers]

Steve Rosenberg's second script today.
