He'll team up with existing head writer Jean Passanante. "I am thrilled that Dave and Jean will make up the new head writing team," said ATWT executive producer Chris Goutman in a statement. "Both writers have an incredible respect for the show's rich history and I am confident this partnership will generate the exciting, character-based stories for which ATWT is known. So it sounds like Laiman is out as co-headwriter which is a good thing but don't think this is a good replacement. While I am happy there are changes, these aren't the changes I was looking for. Wonder if this is really just fulfilling a contract obligation. More at the PGP Blog.

By the time they are done with it, the fans won't want it back. Guiltless sabotage. I know the whole soap genre is changing but I can't help feeling that certain key players are rushing it along on a direct route to failure. Goodness knows what they're motives are. Chris Goutman is either (or a combination thereof): 1) not watching the show, nor has he watched - ever 2) drunk most of the time 3) being blackmailed by JP (photos? long lost scandalous diary? WHAT?!?!?) 4) getting a bonus for ruining the show (see my theory, above) 5) among the stupidest executives in TV This show has "Titanic" written all over it.
