Agreed. Dont get excited till whoever it is proves themself to be good. We've had 9 head writers over the last 9 years ...
Not because of that, Drew. But because DH might not be out at all.

Nothing is confirmed yet. This could go a lot of different ways.

My eyes about bugged out when I saw the title of this post. Quit? Wow! I wonder what's going to happen now. And I wonder how this will affect the show - whether we'll get better or worse.

After all... tomorrow is another day!

whoa. I was no expecting this. How is it that Corday is apparently always on vacation when his show is in trouble AND he is the root of all evil with the show for his constant meddling? I'd think those things would be exclusive but I guess a boss still could meddle from afar.

Who would even want write for DAYS after the Brash/Cwikley, Highley, Railly, Sheffer, Highley fiasco. The different writers already tried everything from total campy show to ultra realistic character driven storylines. Nothing helped.
Corday has been the problem for most of the people you've listed.

Though Dena Higley has proven over and over again how untalented she is as a writer. But who knows, maybe now that she's unemployed she'll actually start watching the potential shows she wants to work for, and will get a clue how to write for them if anyone else is stupid enough to hire her.

Looking at how well promoting from within has worked for One Life to Live, I'd almost suggest that, cept I dont trust anyone they have on staff to do a decent job at it. Victor Gialanella is Higley's right hand stooge, Rick Draughton's dialogue has always been unimpressive, most of the others were groomed under some of the show's darkest eras (Langan/Reilly). Is Beth Milstein still there, or was she one of the ones they fired to give this scab the job?

Hopefully they dont go for the recycling of daytime's washed up head writers routine. Harmon & Brown, Reilly, Latham, and McTavish are all currently unemployed ... be afraid.
Milstein has been at B&B or Y&R long before the strike. She was fired awhile back under Hogan's regime.

I love that Higley quit because she just can't work with Ed Scott any longer, LoL. I mean, the entire Days cast has nothing but praise for the man. He's obviously very good at what he does. Why am I not surprised that he and Higley never saw eye-to-eye? One has talent, the other doesn't.

If this is a power play by Higley and Corday allows her to come back at Ed Scott's expense, I'll knock his fucking head off.

I know that Days is constantly hitting high points and low points in rapid fashion, but we've been at a low point for long enough now. It's time for a high point, even if it doesn't last. Give me a new writer!

Sometimes, it's scary how in sync our minds are, LoL.

Ugh, you know I'm having horrible flashbacks to when Marcus Patrick was mistakenly announced to be leaving. A couple of months later it turned out to happen so sometimes this stuff breaks early (I guess) but it was so horrifying to find out out that first time the report that Jett was gone wasn't true.
