If that’s the case, then please explain why it is “allegedly” that the Academy and its producers felt the need to poach Herman’s entire team when Melissa, with all her illustrious credits, certainly must have her own people? It sure exemplifies the confidence in her abilities as their new replacement. I do agree, Trueblood possesses a mid-level background, but this is the Oscars. Which, at one time used to stand for something. It’s blatantly apparent that producers are now covering themselves in part due to the naivtgee grumbling filtered through the pipeline in regards to Melissa’s lackluster performance and reviews on Emmys. Another genius move, Hudson…besides the RatnerMurphy fiasco. More mess to clean up.So, praise for being “kind” is indeed an admirable trait, but it does not qualify for experience nor gives credibility in undertaking the enormity of that show. How do the Academy Producers rationalize that one? Apparently, by coveting someone else’s team that were groomed by the previous predecessor in order to make the “new generation” choice appear competent. Granted, Herman may not be the warmest of people, but when did that become the criteria for professionalism? She paved the way for many who have since gone on to become producers in their own right through her guidance. Anyone who has lasted this long knows it is part of the business. What does elegance and grace have to do with the qualifications of the job? If this is what we have to look forward to with this “kinder generation”, give me old school anytime. Each of us knows plenty of shrewd, no nonsense male and female producers who rule with tight iron fists. This is not a popularity contest and clearly these niceties are rare. Danette developed and maintained relationships with the “Gatekeepers”. An unspoken word that we knew through our time invested in her that our A+ clients would be taken care of, their confidentiality held intact and would be fair on placement. I’m sure with enough time put forth by Melissa she can find her own groove. For now though, it’s a bit hard to be validated or taken seriously when she has yet to master the craft and stooping to use someone else’s seasoned team…so again “Anonymous” we’re all to believe its just as simple as “returning phone calls?” Therein lies the difference of someone still needing to pay her OWN dues. Therein lies the difference of someone still needing to pay her OWN dues. In this card game ladies and gentleman, Aces always trump Queens.
