WOW. Ed Scott, you suck as a writer. I'm sure his girl pal is the girl who is having an affair with the producer.

Me confused. :shrug: lol

Could that be the reason that the autism storyline has been total filler instead of front and center? So is Ed Scott, Day's "saving grace", the one who has made the show so boring?

Sharongate, bitches!

I can't believe I'm defending Higley, but um, Ed Scott stick to producing, because you can't craft storylines for shit.

This whole thing is really disgusting and unethical.

Sounds like Higley got hosed by the one person we thought would save the show - Ed Scott.

Wow, this IS a clusterfuck!

thats it?
I warned everyone over the weekend - what's a big deal to the fans is very different from what's a big deal to the businessman.

This is actually huge, especially considering the fan outcry for/against Higley, as well as the fan following of Scott and the cast. It sends the business end of Days (which is already in trouble with budget/paying off fired writers/cancellation/the scandal during the strike) into even more hot water. It explains the schizophrenic nature of the show, shows a fair amount of duping over who is to credit/blame for anything that's aired on the show over the last few months, and involves sneakiness on every level, from everyone involved.

So Ed Scott is writing...or re-writing DH's stuff? I'm still confused.

And we still don't know if Dena is gone or not.

Some of what Dena wrote should never have made it to the screen, but I've liked the show better recently, even with it's never ending train ride and slow movement. Hopefully we will find out who wrote what so we can get a better idea of why things were done.

How many divas have the power to write their own scenes?

So Dena(and Rick and maybe even Victor?) have not written, like, in who knows how long?

This is insane.

So now Higley can add whiner, kvetch, and tattletale to her resume.
I wonder who Ed Scott is banging. She has him all tied up in knots.
They got tired of her shitty writing and decided to do it themselves. Sounds resonable to me.

Got on just in the nick of time LOL.

Wow...uh...frankly, I don't understand the big deal but maybe it's just me. Hell, shit like this probably happens all the time and just isn't noticed because no one quits or is fired over it. Hell, I'm sure Corday does it all the time and I'm sure he did it with Hogan based on all the shit Tom Casiello said went down.

I don't know how to feel. Yes, this does explain the lack of direction at times but it's hard to feel bad because I wonder if Days may be worse off had Ed and whoever re-wrote things. He may feel like the quality is being diminished and that the dialogue sucks, which is why he is doing this and having others so it. Having said that, the worst part is Ed may be on his way out. Corday is going to be fuming and it's hard to say I blame him on that accord because he's putting the show in trouble. That and some will find Higley sympathetic now and Corday will feel justified in keeping her and the WGA having to defend her is only adding to that. I guess that is the depressing part. I also wonder about the actor or actors involved and how this could affect them. This could be ugly for Days in that whoever ends up out (Scott, Higley) may take someone with them.
