Members dragonflies Posted January 22 Author Members Share Posted January 22 yeah but Sam is basically a supporting player now. They've even backed off Sonny a bit. People are saying it's gonna be "Carly's world" with Korte at the helm lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 22 Members Share Posted January 22 Sonny is on every single day. He is even just wandering around the hospital at times or hanging out, waiting for Nina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 22 Members Share Posted January 22 Nope. Of interest. Frank recently had a contract renewal. Little things about the writng: Recently the "big boss" was a woman, midway changed into a man. There was a serial killer "The Hook" who was right handed at first, later used his left hand, even later supposedly when revealed was a woman, not a man. Inconsistencies like that all the time.

Members MichaelGL Posted January 22 Members Share Posted January 22 (edited) Chris and Dan's writing is almost similar to Josh Griffith's current tenure at Y&R. It's allergic to drama and raising the stakes in a storyline. I wouldn't rate it as bad as Y&R, but both regimes have the same problem. For Chris and Dan they make story decisions that come out of nowhere, and those decisions never tend to be beneficial to the show in the long run. Was there a need to really tamper with Trina's paternity? Was there really a need to drag Willow's cancer out for months? Was there really a need to make a long winded story based on Nina ratting out Carly/Drew to the feds? And if you look at the reason behind they made these decisions; it was to prop the favorites of ABC/Frank and it was done in the most unflattering of ways. I'm not even excited about Liz getting better writing because ultimately I believe Frank is to blame for the lack of screen time and focus on Liz and her family. And don’t get me started on the dropping of storylines and picking them up later on when you’ve finally come up with not even a plausible reason or climax. Harmony killing Alexis’s doctor boyfriend? Huh? Edited January 22 by MichaelGL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 22 Author Members Share Posted January 22 Yep I agree, tis why Liz's parent's coming to down turned out to be about FINN. Liz was an afterthought and IMO that was due to Valentini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 22 Members Share Posted January 22 (edited) But, with the scab writers we had shorter story turnaround, better overall pacing, ... Personally I would guess that the contrast may have been a part of today's decision. Edited January 22 by Donna L. Bridges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 22 Members Share Posted January 22 I wish I could be thrilled about this news, but until Frank Valentini is gone as well.... Okay, why, lol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 22 Members Share Posted January 22 Okay, but if not for Frank, at certain points, possibly just for production & budget reasons, maybe, GH would have been canceled & that has to count for a fair amount in today's soap climate. Because then he wouldn't be at DAYS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted January 22 Administrator Share Posted January 22 Wow! Patrick Mulcahey is back at GH and gets a shot a writing storylines instead of scripts (I wouldn't be shocked if he occasionally writes scripts). My guess is this is ABC making the move because I don't see Frank coming up with the decision to fire Dan & Chris. I'm a bit sad to see Dan & Chris go because I've enjoyed the majority of their work and they've been the best HWs in daytime these last 4 years or however long they've been HWs of GH. I'm also going to guess they're probably going to stick around as breakdown writers. In any case I'm excited to see what Mulcahey and Korte do.
