Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 3 Author Members Share Posted March 3 And, remember that the other day Michele Val Jean confirmed it. I tweeted it to her & she replied "Solo." I can get a screen grab of the tweet if you wish to see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BetterForgotten Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 Korte is listed separately from the AHW’s - there’s a space between her and the breakdown writers, indicating she was a Co-HW. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 3 Author Members Share Posted March 3 Yeppers! Me to her, her reply. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted March 3 Administrator Share Posted March 3 Correct. If we go by what MVJ tweeted and these credits, MVJ was Head Writer while Korte is Co-HW, meaning they weren't equals (like the way Dan and Chris are). Interesting! I always assumed they were equal Co-HWs. Y'all need to notify me when new information like this comes out, so I can update my archive. Please register in order to view this content LOL. Thanks guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 Yeah, Korte was a Co-HW to MVJ, not equal Co-HWs. When it was announced that Megan McTavich was coming to GH in 2001, it was said she was joining a Head Writing team with MVJ and Korte - but we know that wasn’t JFP’s intention at the time, lol.

Administrator Toups Posted March 3 Administrator Share Posted March 3 Found some exact air dates. Guza's material ended on February 2, 2001, and MVJ's material started on February 5, 2001. Will go and find more exact air dates. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 4 Author Members Share Posted March 4 I'm not sure if this should count. What do y'all think? 12-22-23 Susan Lucci, live, said that Agnes Nixon created RYAN'S HOPE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted March 4 Members Share Posted March 4 A lot of info in reference books dealing with the 50's and 60's is wrong ie list of headwriters, cast member dates etc In the Cast List and Character Guide thread in Cancelled Soaps as well as Soap Hoppers posters have made many corrections to rectify these mistakes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted March 10 Members Share Posted March 10 The statement that Y&R was the first to use cast members in the opening. An episode of the short lived 'Road of Life' from the mid 50's shows the cast of the day's episode in the opening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 12 Author Members Share Posted March 12 Several years ago I got extremely interested in these kinds of errors & in correcting them when possible. The first thing was this idea that Beverlee McKinsey was the first to receive star billing on a soap, when actually she was the last one to do so. No one has gotten star billing since she did in 1980 on "Texas." I have found a handful of instances that pre-date that. Very early "DAYS" Macdonald Carey, "Bright Promise" Dana Andrews, both "AMC" & "How To Survive a Marriage" Rosemary Prinz, and the earliest we've found is 1951's "Miss Susan." I thought about posting this today because it is an anniversary for "Miss Susan" which began on March 12, 1951. I include this below primarily because the video is extremely rare. An excerpt from a blog on star billing: Besides this blog, issued & distributed, with 3 versions so far, I also corrected the information on Beverlee McKinsey's IMDb & wikipedia pages. If you try to correct something like this in those places, be ready to persevere. The IMDb took 4 attempts & wikipedia took 3, with editing of the submission in between tries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted March 17 Members Share Posted March 17 Love of Life credited cast members in its opening sequence throughout the 50s, as seen in the several episodes available online, and Paradise Bay credited Keith Andes (and maybe Marion Ross too?) in the 60s, but I haven’t seen anything from that show since one episode was posted on WoST over 20 years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
