Color me shocked! SHOCKED!
OUTSTANDING WRITING TEAM FOR A DAYTIME DRAMA SERIES The Bay (Popstar! TV) Beyond Salem: Chapter Two (Peacock) The Bold and the Beautiful (CBS) Days of our Lives (NBC/Peacock) General Hospital (ABC) WINNER: The Young and the Restless (CBS)
How bad could all the other Soap writers be if Y&R is the best?
I'm here to tell you Days of our Lives have 100% better writing and their writing can be weird at times. (weird supernatural - not bad)

I did think it was really odd that Y&R's writing is the best. What the heck? OK, at the time of, say, when Chelsea was suicidal and Billy talked her down, the writing was very good in that storyline and that scene.
I don't remember what else was going on.
But clearly they're not winning an award for the recent garbage. The only way Y&R will win a writing award next year, based on the current writing, is if it is the only soap left.

I was shocked at Josh Griffith's speech (and to receive the award at all). For being the head writier, you would think he would have a way with words but he relied on his phone to deliver a very unispired and generic speech. He also looked very dishelved with his tie drooping down.

I agree, lucygirl. His speech reminded me of Victor Newman reading his lines off his phone. To hear that Y&R received the award for best writing makes me question the whole process. My husband and I also watch GH, and its writing is pretty darned good. Even B&B seems superior to the boring, apparently AI-created dialogue of Y&R.
