Rumour Has It That Lynn Marie Latham May be Out at Y&R
Since the writer’s strike there have been many rumours on the Internet and in some soap magazines that the head writer and executive producer of The Young & the Restless, Lynn Marie Latham may be on her way out. Latham decided to honor the strike even though she is also the executive producer of the show. Word is that her assistant was already let go and that a Sony executive is taking Latham’s place right now. My personal opinion is though I like Latham when she was writing for prime-time shows like Knots Landing and Homefront, I just don’t think her style works for daytime. Since Latham took over, The Young & the Restless just has not been as good as it use to be in the past. Also I have read that when Latham was hired at Y&R, she admitted that she had never even watch the show. You would think the powers that be would have least hire someone who knew some of the history of the show and it characters. If Y&R does plan on hiring a new head writer that should be mandatory. As of right now this is still a rumour, but I am sure after the strike is over we will get more information.
