Very little about Roger this time.
Parts follow:
"a very reliable inside source that ABC is in complete panic mode right now (hence the now infamous meeting that took place where ABC addressed the staff and crew of AMC). If everything was fine, a meeting would not have been necessary (damage control from the inside is rather telling). If there was no truth to the rumor, ABC would have laughed it off as they have done in the past, and we would have heard nothing further."
O Boy, jives with what I heard!
Also:
"What they do not dismiss is snail mail, telephone calls, and e-mails."
And the thing we are asking about...every moment:
ou can get fifty correct, but it's the five that never happened that are all that certain fans become fixated on. It's inevitable. If I were to treat my sources in the same manner in which I have treated by some of you (thankfully not the majority who have been nothing but lovely to me since I returned), I would never hear from them again! They would be disgusted, find me incredibly ungrateful, and never give me another morsel! It's why I do not ask them every week if they have heard anything new about Roger Howarth! If they did hear something about him or anyone else we have discussed out here, they would tell me, and I would tell you! If you do not see something in my column that you wanted news on, it's not that I am suffering from Alzheimer’s! It's that I simply had nothing new to report on that item in question, which is why it was probably not addressed.
Old timers know about the 3-month rule (and it's actually mentioned in two recent columns archived here). Once more with feeling, I get early rumblings on things! Most of my casting scoops usually take at least three months to come to fruition as they typically do. My sources are getting tidbits from behind the scenes (not when it's ready to be confirmed, and put out as news)! Huge difference! Scripts written today, do not typically air for at least three months. That's why I write a gossip column, and not a newspaper! I told you that Roger was in talks with the show, and that long time fans may be finally getting their wish, and that was not even two months ago! I know it seems like a year to some of you, but Geez! I understand that you are excited at the prospect, and for you a few weeks may feel like a year, but a couple of months is nothing in this industry! I adore Roger Howarth, and want to see him just as badly as you do! I can only imagine what Soap Opera Network went through when they declared that he was returning in August of last year. I put this out only two months ago, and every few days I am asked about this! If you don't want an early heads up, and are only interested in the news as it is about to be announced, you should probably not read me, and go find a newspaper instead. Just being painfully honest with you. I love you guys and am blessed with many wonderful readers out there, but sometimes this stuff can make you a little crazy! If you don't believe me, try it sometime! "
LOVE that ROGER takes PRESIDENCE over TSJ!
More:
"I've seen negotiations come down to the wire. Let us not forget when I told you that Melissa Archer was out many years back. Daytime agent Michael Bruno confirmed this as well. She was as gone as anyone can be considering the fact that the show had already held two rounds of auditions to recast for the role of Natalie! She was out! They came to terms in the 11th hour in the midst of auditions no less! They may have an ace up their sleeves on this one. In fact, my source told me today that things are not what they appear to be. Don't count Trevor out just yet. The 11th hour has yet to come. Some feathers are ruffled, and with it, a heavy dose of angst is in the air. Let us wait for official confirmation on this. It's going to be a very bumpy ride.
I could repeat what I told you above, but frankly, we are merely awaiting for official word at this point one way or another. I can tell you that I hear that he is still filming, but again we need official confirmation on his contract status, so there is really nothing new to add just yet......"
Not worried, nor do I care about ANYTHING that has to do with him!
