So, I have learned that some things have leaked from various sources & that frees me to tell a little about the script that was tossed.

A damaged, brainwashed Morgan was to appear. He had been held all this time by a known villain & he had a verbal trigger & it was the words "Susan Moore". 

And that's all I can say. It matters very little since they were fired & the whole script was thrown out. 

Edit: I have never claimed to be either an insider or an expert. That is silly.

So I guess the insider was wrong. again. Oops.

Well, now that O'Connor and Van Etten might be out the door officially, I'm sure one or both will land on Ron Carlivati's staff at DAYS in no time.

Probably BOTH! 🤣

Yeah...watching this last week...I feel like there are 'signs' of the incoming party and 'tracts' of the departing party. 

I want to say similar happened at Y&R, too. But I sure can't think of which HW team.

For Y&R, I remember that for more than one of the past few HW changes:
The credits showed *both* the old and new Y&R headwriters during the transition period of a few weeks.

That sounds like a really smart & fair thing to do.

I know from Mal Young to Josh Griffith that aired because it was well-known that Griffith went into Young's scripts and re-wrote some things, due to how in-advance Young had written material.

Pardon me for not reading all 43 pages of this thread, but have they done an exit interview? 

I don't know which outlet would do it, but I'd like to know their 'Jason returns' pitch and their perspective on the timeline of their dismissal.

No interview.

That rarely happens.

Yes, although Pam Long's fiancé's exit interview with SOD was pretty juicy, so I wish it would happen more often.  With only four soaps, there's not much to lose by spilling the beans on their ex-employer.  And, California outlawed NDA's for fired employees.

Soap media, especially today, is likely too scared for an exit interview. Gone are the days of Michael Logan.

The last exit interviews I remember are Shelly Altman & Jean Passanante (via Michael Fairman) and Sally Sussman (via Daytime Confidential).

I'd bet Errol and/or Toups could get the job done

BTW, a thread on the most memorable exit interviews of all time would be fun.  Melanie Smith's (Emily Stewart) exit interview from ATWT was a masterpiece for the genre (I've never looked at Greg Beecroft the same).  And Edie Lehmann's (GH Katherine Delafield) made me wish her character had as much spunk as she did.
