There are usually at least two sides to every story and I think we need to hear the other sides of this before we pass judgement.
I think we are ALL trying to make sense out of all the news....I think we are all too confused to be passing judgment. :laugh:

Just had a thought. Brenda Dickson didn't exactly say the nicest of things about Scott in her recent blog post (including giving all the good material to the girl he was boinking) and was also mentioning that sometimes what Bill Bell had written wasn't exactly showing up on screen the way it was written. Most everyone just dissmissed Dickson as being a whackjob (which still may be true), however, in light of today, I think it bears further consideration.

I'm sorry, something doesn't jive here. I'm having a hard time believing that Ed Scott who has been in the industry for decades is so blatantly breaking union rules. There has to be more to it than what we've been told. I've heard that it isn't uncommon for scenes to get rewritten whiile its being taped, so how do we know that this isn't the case? How do we know that this isn't some smoke screen from Higley to try and make herself look like the victim especially since she and Corday are under investigation for their actions during the strike.

There are usually at least two sides to every story and I think we need to hear the other sides of this before we pass judgement.
Exactly! I want more information before I condemn Ed Scott. It would terrible if he's sleeping with one of the drugged up actresses and/or letting her write her own story.

It just doesn't sound real. Sounds like whatever did happen has been blow up out of proportion.

Wow, this thread keeps popping.

Thanks Nelson for chiming in. I can't wait for tomorrow. I suspect tomorrow will shed light on whether Higley is still gone and what may or may not happen to Ed Scott. I don't expect names. I'm not sure if we will ever know who the actors or actresses were. I think it was Tammy who said that it is more likely we can make educated guesses off any upcoming firings or recasts. I think they will want to keep the actors/actresses under wraps.

Thanks OBK for the info you provided too. I just want to ask to see if you could clarify but do you know if they said a Y&R executive producer AND writer was coming to Days or an EP/HW. If it's two people, then that would suggest Scott is out. That is why I ask.

One thing that I have to question is why Ed Scott would be this stupid. He's been in the business for years. He has to know what can and can't be done and he doesn't strike me as one who would do something that could get him in hot water if he is caught. That alone is shocking to me. Also, the diva and other two actors/actresses who were involved to me have to be people who aren't industry savvy, which is why they have to be quite young to me. I just can't see a vet whose been in daytime for years doing something stupid like that because they should know the rules and what can and can't be done. That is why I can't see it being SN and MBE. They've been rather open about how the ad-lib and tweak things so I would say they know how far they can go if they've been doing it for so long.

Nelson, I don't expect details and don't want to hound you. I appreciate everything you've done and the info you provide. I just want to know what to expect tomorrow. Is this going to clarify some things or is this just going to give us more info and give us even more questions? :laugh:

Phoenix, the way they worded it was "Days is getting one of Y&R's writers and executive producers." That sounds like it could be one person, sounds like it could be two people. I'm not sure. :shrug:

According to her, she is committed to other projects and the role of Ava was intended to be short term.

Does anyone honestly think that Ed Scott would risk the wrath of MTS just to get a piece of some sweet young thang?

Actually yes, to be honest with you.

Midlife crisis or whatever. No one is perfect.

Matt, I think you may be on to something, maybe this could be the thing to REINVIGORATE her CAREER!!!

Terry is probably contacting Ken Corday for the position and considering it's Corday he may consider it :laugh: .

One other thing...I still have this odd feeling Dena is involved in how this was exposed. Hell, I wouldn't even put it past her to make this into a bigger deal then it was to save face and to make her look good with the WGA and give herself an out and also get rid of Ed Scott and maybe return to Days without him there. I mean, it feels like we only got one side of this and that we are missing quite a few pieces. Whoever exposed this and turned in proof, to me, has to be someone with an ax to grind. Why else would they put all this in motion?
