Members dragonflies Posted March 1 Author Members Share Posted March 1 Same! I could get behind MM for Lulu, I never cared much for JMB's "ShrewLu" and I guess I'm like the only person who thought EM was okay as Lulu lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Liberty City Posted March 2 Members Share Posted March 2 She really would! It's why she's my top choice. Emme Rylan, talent-wise, could have worked for Lulu but the lobotomized her⏤like most female characters under the "writer's" regime⏤and weakened her by making her a mom. Same thing happened to Maxie, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aragorn Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 I think the decision to fire the writers was made during the writer's strike. They couldn't do it then because they weren't legally allowed to. Instead, when Chris and Dan came back they were told to finish their storylines and prepare a story for Jason's return. The producers never intended to use their Jason story, and when they presented it that was the point of their firing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 There were things that happened during the strike that set up certain circumstances. We can be safe figuring that included fan reaction to scab writing. Also the way things did & didn't happen at the studio. Dan & Chris returned. They began doing things in their usual way. Their first decision was for Chase to propose to BLQ. This was sometime before Christmas. A bit after Christmas Frank started seriously thinking about things. All this time Dan & Chris are doing their thing. They had scripts go to air sometime before Christmas. Not long before. Jan. 17 Jason Re-entry Script turned in. Rejected. Orally told they were out. Fri. dotted i's & crossed t's formally fired. 1-19 Mon. press notified. 1-22 Now, believe this or not. Entirely up to you. I don't care. But, I'm not going to argue about it.

Members Chris B Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 Considering how convoluted their stories are, is it any surprise their story for Jason’s return was turned down? I can only imagine how insane and over the top (not to mention, dragged out) it would’ve been. In general, i think Jason is a character they really struggled with. I don’t think the show wanted to waste such a big return on a bad story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 (edited) In fairness any story featuring a 'brainwashed' Jason as Sonny's attacker (which appears to be the trajectory here) is over the top by definition. But after the Two Jasons mess it's not exactly off-brand. I just hope PM doesn't go deep into brains on USBs and microchips again.

Members Liberty City Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 @Vee That does not sound like something Mulcahey would do. If anything, I'm more-so thinking he's about to ground the canvas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 It doesn't, but I'm betting rn that for the purposes of this story, Jason was the shooter in Puerto Rico and again this week. It's not like there isn't a background in brainwashing for both twins now and PM did inherit this ridiculous sci-fi setup. I really don't care what the story is tbh so long as they don't come up with a Q triplet. Just get Jason back and move on so I can see what the rest of the show has to offer.

Members Liberty City Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 I concur. Just, at this point, pull the fücking band-aid off and let us experience something no one asked for to happen, LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 4 Author Members Share Posted March 4 Van Etten & O'Connor were credited for today. SO I dunno why people on other sites think their last episode was Friday lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted March 4 Members Share Posted March 4 (edited) They may be credited because their contract cycles were still in play but that wasnt C& D. Today may have been all EK. Edited March 4 by John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
