The only thing that makes sense is Corday has a kinky three some going on with Dena and her husband. Both fucking piece of shit writers who are going to finally and utterly destroy my beloved show. Fuck you Corday. Thank god your parents aren't around too see what you have done. Stupid, inept rotten bastard. |

GOODBYE DAYS! I cannot believe this is happening... I'm not sticking around for Rope, Ava's ridiculous schemes and Daniel's endless worshiping...NO THANK YOU! Dena Higley should have been the one OUT PERMANENTLY! Well, DAYS can count their blessings on being renewed for 1 year, because that's all they're going to get(1 year renewal) with Higley at the helm. Truly sad and TOTAL mismanagement on TPTB! |

I just don't even know what to say anymore. My only hope is that Ryan Quan is like a DAYS version of Ron Carlivati. He was just a part of the OLTL writing team when was he promoted to Higley's co-writer. A few months later Higley was gone and Carlivati made me a true OLTL fan. I hope history can repeat itself on DAYS in this instance. We will see. |

Could be. And maybe it was Josh. That wasn't the problem, though. Not in my eyes. That was pretty ballsy and an interesting move for Hope. If it was about her being grief-stricken, losing her mind, it being a crime of passion then it could have worked really well. What sucked (other than KA's acting in that scene) was everything thereafter. It went downhill the moment Rafe came through the door stunk everything up. |

Oh no, let me clarify- I love Passions and I love JER's craziness on DAYS. I just think Quan +Dena is going to be a hilarious result, like campy, supernatural mixed with weirdly "I can't look away" stuff that will be completely out of tone withe verything that comes before it because nobody at DAYS currently knows how to pace or edit a story |

I don't think she's intentionally giving rope bad writing. She really thinks this is what people want to see and root for. It's time for me to part ways with this show, if she's going to be in charge again. She clearly didn't learn anything from her last run, but I did. |

I should be surprised . . . but I'm not. I wouldn't be surprised if Tomlin returned either. What a mess. |

Yeah she does like Justin and Adrienne I remember her tweeting about Lucas so that would be my one last hope. Is her actually writing for Lucas. |

Would make sense if the speculations are right.. That he was mostly responsible of the writing in the fall, then Dena took the rains during December stories (and crashed the quality in a record time). I'd be rather frustrated, too, with the show's current course lol. I'm interested to see if anything changes on screen during Dena's LOA. Does anyone know how long it lasted? |

The murder wasn't where this story was lacking. It was unnecessary to pile on but it made sense in what they had been writing for Hope. It's the cover up that is crappy story and IMO nothing about the cover up is that serious at least where Hope is concerned (she hasn't been a cop since almost November and it's very easy to play back on mental state being off/rage). Most of the general fans probably are wanting them to get away with it.
He could write but he was a huge hack. Edited by AngelaP, Feb 18 2016, 07:31 PM.

Something about quitting the show for the millionth time yesterday felt so right and this announcement cements that feeling. |

Maybe I should rephrase it. She couldn't have picked a better time to leave. Higley still being there kills any hope I have for Days. |

She has delusions of grandeur. She thinks she's a talented writer..she's a back..her and corday can both go to Hell. |

I just did a thorough Wikipedia vs Soapcentral recap comparison of her writing periods and the characters that featured prominently and it looks like her time period was very Ejami vs. Ejole vs. Rafe heavy, a lot of everybody loves Melanie, and I believe prostitute Chloe. I want Lucas on my screen too- he's the first character (along with Sami) who got me to watch this show. The only character I have liked since as strongly is Sonny. |

does her name on scripts mean anything or is that just an official thing? cause i think Beth's name is supposed to go on soon and Dena's come off from what we estimated and I remember from one of the media threads we though we saw a script in mid April with all 3 so if it does mean something... thats 7-8 weeks. |

IMO, December was IMO, 65/35 and IMO with the 65 lean on Griffith. You can go by Rafe/Hope writing. When Hope was dark and ignoring Rafe ... it was more Griffith. When Hope was scurred with Rafe being the big strong man ... that was Higley. You can go by Chase writing. When Chase was playing with matches and kissing Ciara ... it was Griffith. When Chase was giving normal responses to trauma and letting go of his crush easily ... it was Higley. When Daniel was being ignored ... that was Griffith. When Daniel became EVERYTHING ... that was Higley. No Bo mentions ... Higley. Bo mentions ... Griffith. They ultimately were really easy to tell apart. |

Seriously, what the HELL is going on with this show?! How in sweet Jesus' name is Dena still there? She's like a bad penny!! I can only imagine the casting news that's coming in the next several weeks. |

If Steve and Kayla and John and Marlena are gone, I may be too. I just can't with the idiocy of Higley. I was so hopeful in the fall. Now? Hopeless........... |
