ALL: Head Writers

Bradley Bell officially took over the writing reigns in May 1993. He became Exec Prod in December 1995.

It must've been after the Christmas show then, because Bill and Lee were listed as EPs for the Christmas show in 1995. So, I'll just keep it at 1996 for Bradley. LOL

BTW: You listed Jack Smith as headwriter on Y&R way too early. He din't became officially co-headwriter along with Kay Alden until early 2003 after he left B&B. Trent Jones was also never headwriter because Kay Alden had the reigns in the late 90s until 2000s. I think he was more associate headwriter if at all.

And I need to ckeck: but wasn't Tom Langan an exec prod at Y&R in the late 80s?

The Emmys listed Jones as a "Co-Head Writer" for 2005, 2004, 2003 Emmys. I'm not sure about Tom Langan. I think he was just a Producer while Ed Scott was EP. I edited the list. Tell me if it looks more correct. LOL

So Smith was officially named co-HW in 2003? I thought it was in 2002 while he was still consulting for B&B. I'll go with you since you know more about B&B/Y&R than I do. LOL
