Humor in daytime soaps possible says Ann Marcus
Los Angeles AP reports Ann Marcus cocreator of Mary Hartman and head writer of Days of Our Lives. She notes humor may be hard to sustain in large female daytime audiences but believes a lighter soap could emerge. Marcus recalls early work in The Hathaways and Love Is a Many Splendored Thing. She criticizes Lear's Hartman style as heavy handed but praises its first year. Marcus from Little Falls NY, married to Ellis Marcus, predicts she may create a humorous daytime soap.
