Members Mona Kane Croft Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 Any news about where the show will be produced? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1974mdp Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 I still think the show should air after Y&R and then have it followed by B&B to give it the best chance. I feel like B&B isn't even trying to tell engaging, fresh stories at all anymore. The post-Y&R slot gives The Gates its best shot for viewers to sample it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 It’s funny: The Gates has made the existing shows instantly irrelevant to me. I’d love to see the genre fully blossom again, but Y&R, B&B, and especially DAYS are all so easy to ignore at the very moment when eyes are back on daytime. I’m not yet convinced that Mulcahey/Korte on GH will be much more than what Sally Sussman and Kay Alden were for Y&R, in spite of a few promising improvements. Neither PM nor EK are proven visionaries of the long story, but at least they are veterans who studied at the feet of true geniuses (like MVJ has). It at least shows TPTB aren’t completely risk-averse, which is new. Better to try something different (yet smart and calculated) than do the same things that have lulled soaps into oblivion. It’s not like they’re entrusting these shows to novices who don’t know the grind and budgetary limitations of daytime. Will the legacy soaps seriously step up their game to meet the moment? Other than GH (network-owned), do those shows even know what it means to step up their game? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 (edited) I still would love to know the timeline of their hiring. When did ABCD contact EK and PM? Had they contacted anyone else beforehand? And how much time did EK and PM have to prepare before officially starting? My instincts tell me the reason why we haven't seen too many drastic changes yet (aside from longer scenes and deeper conversations) is because EK and PM didn't have a whole lot of time to sit down and draw up major plans OR so much of Chris and Dan's stuff had already been written in advance (and EK and PM are working off whatever Chris and Dan left behind) that dumping it and starting fresh would've been too costly or time-consuming OR a combination of the two. Either way, I'm giving EK and PM time to figure out everything before (Michele Val Jean snaps up Patrick Mulcahey for her writing staff and) I pass any judgment about their work.

Members dragonflies Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 Honestly it's Frank IMO. Nothing is going to change with him at the helm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 I think time (and watching the show) will be the judge of that. I think GH has improved a lot but has a long way to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 Improved is a strong word lol. It's still the Sonny, Carly, Jason show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted April 16 Members Share Posted April 16 (edited) Do you actually watch it these days or are you still just posting tweets? Edited April 16 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
