In reply to: Pilar 's message, "Writing was atrocious, dreadful, and so much worse I can tell Jillyvision has struck w/music replacing good dialogue, SPDs galore & bitchy, stupid females worse than ever. As for ratings drop, I think Jilly is blaming them on Riche/Guza still... personally I think some GH fans headed for hills noticing signs of train wreck approaching. But heck Shapiro loves Jilly she pisses off fans, & you know ABC daytime thinks angry fans still watch." on 01:30:42 03/09/01 Fri

My big question is what will Shapiro do now? My gut (and past history) tells me she'll sit back and twiddle her thumbs, and Jill will slither out of yet another mess.... Does Eisner read his mail? LOL (NT) -- Megan, 01:43:26 03/09/01 Fri
- Oh yes, Shapiro & JFP in 99 were quoted as saying angry fans are caring fans still tuned in, they earned TIIC titles for that idiocy. Ratings tanking much faster than Soapnet can make up and still do NOT get stop pissing off fans, give us what we want as C Hinsey said you would think they get msg by now. (NT) -- Pilar, 01:52:15 03/09/01 Fri
  - My guess is Shapiro will do nothing. Jillly will excuse fight as SB wanted to leave anyways, don't need her anyways... we have Jensen Buchanan, the new star of GH to come. Eisner apparently loves Jilly from what I've heard... I guess at this point Jilly is kissing Geary so much cause only him or a Lucci have enough clout w/Shapiro to win a battle.

    - So you're saying fans are screwed? :) (NT) -- Megan, 02:10:05 03/09/01 Fri
      - ABC daytime fans, including GH fans, will remain screwed as long as Angela Shapiro remains president. She gives Jilly carte blanche to wreak her havoc. FMB, under Shapiro, is NOT fan of Jilly NOR McHack, I'd love to see her promoted... problem is Shapiro is big on marketing ideas which appeals most to Disney, not producing creative programming. If someone handed me a memo that said Shapiro was charged w/destroying soaps on purpose I would believe it, that's how bad a job I believe she's done. (NT) -- Pilar, 02:41:32 03/09/01 Fri
  - I guess basic logic escapes them, hence the major mess they're in right now. It's ludicrous beyond belief! I just keep asking myself what it'll take for them to realize what they're doing. (NT) -- Megan, 01:59:17 03/09/01 Fri
