She spilled some tea in regards to a former HW/EP and was honest with a lot of other answers too.....

This interview shocked me. Honestly. I just have no words. It's so arrogant.

Ok, then. Good luck YR. I guess I won't invest time in this show anymore.

What other problems need to be addressed?
I do believe it was a mistake to make Devon Katherine’s grandson and leave him with $2 billion. It has left him without drive, without a goal. What does he want? What does he strive for? I don’t think those questions were ever asked, so we need to fix that.
here is an other crapfest which basically have me lost interest in the new regime.
WTF...............no one believe 40-Watt should have inherited Kay's money.

And what about Sharon? What's your plan there?

I have big plans for her and Nick. And Sharon is going to embark on a new goal that surprises everyone in Genoa City - one that brings a new person into her life. That's another problem. We really need to build some longterm romantic couples. You have Nick and Sharon and Billy and Victoria, but neither couple is currently together. Where is the couple that is actually together that we want to root for? That couple doesn't exist. We have to create some. We may need some people from the outside because the cast is so unbalanced right now. There are so many single women and I don't know who to pair them with because there are very few men - Billy, Nick - who aren't attached. Besides you can't just put two people together and call them a supercouple. I'm looking right now for the unexpected, but the problem is everybody's related or connected. There is no wow couple. You could maybe put Phyllis with Neil, and Billy with Hilary or Nick with Hilary. But they would really have to jump off the screen like the great supercouples do.


I really wished these writers would stop considering Billy/Boretoria as a couple. Maybe Sussman will fire AH and then I can get behind Victoria again.

one thing I am happy about, Sussman sounds like she is going to make Sharon whole once again.

Finally a woman who knows her shit!

I loved every single thing that she said. She is 100% right about the previous writers killing this show. I'm so glad we finally have a writer back who is going to do this show justice again.

If she does everything she says she'll do, it sounds like Y&R is going to be getting better and with a lot of fixes in ridiculous SL's.
I'm looking forward to it. :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn:


"You will see a difference right away. The very first scene of my first episode starts with an Abbott family breakfast."

Will Mamie be there fixing breakfast? I miss her, she was great, none of this love quadrangles crap would have ever happened if Mamie was there to straighten everyone out.
I can just see if Mamie had been around when GLORIA was married to John. That would have been a whole other show. :blulaugh:

I really would be afraid to be so arrogant LOL. (it's about SSM, not the poster)

Let your ratings show that you're better than Pratt then brag, not vice versa

There are several "active" stories, the baby kidnapping, Phyliss and Jack, Billy trying to worm his way back to Victoria, Travis and Victoria, maybe Travis and Michelle, chloe and Adam's "death".
And of course, the ongoing until one of us dies feud between Victor and Jack, but Hillary and Devon, uh no, that's barely a story let alone an active one.

Those other s/l aren't "active" in her opinion, I suppose.

She's been with the show before, so I hardly think they'd bring her back if they didn't think she could boost ratings. I didn't see any bragging, just statements.

If I go to a dentist and she/he starts talking crap about my previous dentists' work, I never go there again.

I have no idea why she would say that, unless she was misquoted. I'll have to read it again.

Going to the dentist is much different than Hollyweird.
I don't think she was talking "crap" I think she was talking facts. She was sure on the money about Latham and Maria Bell. lol

She's worked on this show before, she had the experience. Her work speaks for itself. She has every reason to bash the writers who fucked up this show since then.

It's an absolute fact that Y&R has fallen from grace since LML came in and fired all the folks who knew this show. SSM was one of those people and I absolutely respect what she has to say!

Wow I am kind of 50/50 with this interview. I am thrilled about what's coming for Sharon and Shick!! Exactly what I have wanted for years.

However, the rest of it is rather iffy. The Newman/Abbott hour? Like that has really skyrocketed the ratings lately. No mention of the younger set instead lots of talk of the above 40 crowd. There is no wow couple that jumps off the screen currently? That was Billy & Phyllis imo. But apparently that is repulsive to her when she's the one who introduced Phick to us. Let's just go back to boring bland Villy SMDH. I guess I'll wait and see how this pans out.

good point.....at least they should try to be respectful of others in the field.
no matter if they didn't like their writing.

She talked about putting Sharon with someone else other than Nick, don't buy that Bridesmaid dress yet. lol
