Posts: 954 06/03/07 12:15 PM Soap Fan	Tags : None Raven Beauty in her spoiler column over on SOC said the new writers have a new direction for the show, which will involve getting rid of the remaining rarely seen vets and focusing even more on the new and younger characters. Heaven help us. Doesn't inspire me to tune back in! I'm willing to BET this is preceding a move to Soapnet only, doing a GH: Night Shift type show with AMC, and maybe eventually getting rid of AMC. Heck, I think they already did and are just continuing to use the name. Here is a direct link to her column http://www.voy.com/191220/3407.html talk David talk Di

The new writers have a new vision. Some of those lingering rarely seen actors are on their way out. Pine Valley will have a very different look once all is said and done (affecting the 90210 mansion for lost souls most of all)." So yes they are getting rid of some actors we don't usually see... but maybe some of those could be the younger actors at Wildwind are going too? Not Ryan/Annie cause we see them all the damn time... but maybe others like Del? I'm not sure how Wildwind will change but it may not be a huge focus place when this is done.

I fear that they will get rid of Myrtle, Joe, Opal, Palmer and probably Sydney. If you asked me 6 months ago who they should get rid of, I would add Colby. However, I think she has actually appoved a little bit and should stay. I don't think Frons and the AMC people realize how close they might be to getting canned. Now that the Dimeras are back on Days, I expect the ratings to fall even worse. It would serve them right if all the old time vets sued ABC over Age Discrimination. I mean they already got sued by that one chick that Sonny was going to wed on General Hospital. What's her name, Kari something. Hot as hell. Fire Frons Now.

Posts: 849 06/10/07 8:41 PM Soapsite's Bad Boy!	I'm really starting to think they want this show canned. Is there actually anyone that watches this show that likes NUgreenlee? I mean she is just horrible and it's not even her fault really. Fire Frons Now.

I'm not saying I want that format but they wrote some pretty steamy stuff. I know a lot of you were not into PC because of the vampire thing but it was well written.

Posts: 954 06/24/07 1:39 PM Soap Fan	AMC doesn't seem to 'get' that characters make sense and work only within certain contexts (families). Greenlee had Mary, had Roger (I HATE the Jackson is her dad stuff), Leo, David... and an enemy in the MIL Vanessa. Everyone is gone but Greenlee... the forced Rylee pairing didn't work the first time, and it's not going to work now. Especially as Greenlee is now a totally separate entity. Soaps really can't have stand alone characters (look at Julia's return... without any other Santos's ) - but AMC has few families left and until they repair that new writers alone won't work.
