Lorraine Broderick Named Head Writer!!!

No April Fool's this time, I promise!!   ABC Soaps In Depth tweeted two great pieces of news... AMC is not being canceled (rumors persist) and Lorraine Broderick has been named as head writer!   This is AWESOME news.  AMC under Broderick is a much much better AMC.  Things are looking up!  (No word on whether or not David Kreizman and Donna Swajeski are out or just relieved of head writing duties).

The Dawn of a New Day

SOAPNet.com has posted the first official interview with the new headwriting team of All My Children, David Kreizman and Donna Swajeski. Check it out HERE.

I don't want to sound critical, but why would a soap in a creative slump hire a man who has seen two soaps canceled on his watch? I'm looking at you, David.

New Headwriters Announced!!!

ABC has announced that Donna Swajeski (former head writer for AW and GL) and David Kreizman (former head writer for GL and current co-head writer of ATWT) will be taking over as Co-Head Writers for AMC. Together this team won a Daytime Emmy for Writing GL in 2007.

Both have a rich history in daytime. Donna began her daytime career working as an AMC program executive. From there she worked as headwriter for Another World and Guiding Light. She's also written for Port Charles and B&B.

David began working at Guiding Light in 1995 as an intern and quickly worked his way up the ranks. In 1997 he joined the writing team and was made Head Writer in 2004. He worked at GL until the show ended last year and then moved over to ATWT as Co-Head Writer.
