Just saw where Days fired the executive producer and hired….

because from what I’ve read about Noel Maxam, he is known for re-inventing a show and his role as Co-E.P. did just that.  Unless, of course, he was hired to get this show back on it’s feet and then, when TPTB thought he had done that, made some sort of agreement with him that Lisa DeColotte would take over as Co-E.P.  Maxam did his job, probably at a much higher salary that DeColotte, and now she takes the reins.  She has a history with the new Co-head-writers, and is known to get along well with staff as well as cast members.  She was loved on Passions, so I’ve read …. AAANNNNDDDD she knows how to stay on a budget.  Now that the vets have returned, the new sets have been built, and everything from the lighting to the use of extras has been put in place, it might just have been time for Noel Maxam to go, because simply his job was done.  Lisa DeColotte didn’t just get off the bus either.  She is the former EP from Passions, true, but she also was a Co-Producer at AMC, as well as working on GH and one or two other older soaps in her past, and from what I have read about her, she appears to be very well liked among cast members and crews.  Let’s just hope that in this instance talk is NOT cheap and she fits right in DOOL continues to climb in the ratings, which it seems to be doing every week.

By the way, "The Chew" is a complete and utter bust and in danger of being pulled, along with Brian Frons, by ABC.  Couldn’t be happier about this after what they did to All My Children and One Life to Live, and possibly now to General Hospital.  The Chew is dropping in audience numbers in the hundreds of thousands, and according to the reviews I’ve read, soon there won’t be anyone watching.  Have to thank em’ in a way, though, their loss has been DOOL’s gain.

they can get the cream of the crop in the way of producers, writers, directors, actors, etc.  (I think they hit the jackpot with Madison.)  That SHOULD make them much better.
