It looks like that is all changing. The fire scene last for hours, yet no one but Stitch [Sean Carrigan] was seriously hurt. And, after all the escaping Ian Ward [Ray Wise] has done over the past year, they are going to presume him and Patty [Stacy Haiduk] as dead? The whole storyline made the fans scratch their heads, for the most part.
Chuck Pratt, Jr. is one of those writers who truly believed fans want to see these catastrophic events on the soaps. Fans don’t want these disasters; they want drama. And by drama, they don’t want to see baby kidnapping, paternity shake-ups, and father and son infidelity storylines. They want real drama like who killed Diane Jenkins [Maura West].

The fact is with Jill Farren Phelps calling the shots; many fans have given up on their favorite daytime soap opera. “The Young and the Restless” has a huge following, with almost five million viewers each day.

Fans are calling for someone who knows how to create drama without the need to kill people, kidnap babies, or switch paternity back and forth.
If you are like most fans and think Chuck Pratt, Jr. should be out of a job, you can voice your opinion at the new petition.

One fact that you cannot argue is that if a big change isn’t made soon, “The Young and the Restless” could face cancellation. Fans must take a stand before it is too late, and the soap is taken off the air.
