Has the Writer's Strike Affected mySON TV networks?

Written by: Striking Writer

If you've checked out the mySON TV network as of late, you will have noticed the changing landscape of the blog scene. Eight shows have appeared to have halted production since November. Could there be behind the scenes changes on the horizon? Have the showrunners pulled the blog on their soaps? Or have some of the head writers on mySON TV chosen to strike with the guild brethren?

Many mySON TV writers are believed to be members of the Blog Writers Guild Association/Fan Fiction Guild Association (FFGA/BWGA), though many believe it doesn't exist. Some shows, through their respective production companies (SONBC and SONOP) have made deals with the Guild to continue production. Other shows, such as "Port Charles," "Cuffs," and "Genoa City" have yet to do so.

More on this to come.......

On August 4 a casting call went out from All Our Lives that stated the show was looking for the following: a male, has blonde or light brown hair, is in his mid to late 20's and has an innocent look. The answer as to who the character was and what actor would land the role was previously announced in the first issue of the DR-TV Insider. Viewers found out that former ATWT actor Craig Lawlor has landed the role of Benjy Hawk, the child who super couple Steve and Kayla almost adopted in the late 1980’s. In the article posted in the Insider it was announced that Benjy would be a long term character. With that news we asked if that meant a return of Kayla was in the near future, for in AOL history Steve is still dead. Michael Amello responded saying that AOL has yet to plan a return for Kayla or Mary Beth Evans at this moment in time.

In even bigger news comes the announcement that Renee Jones a.k.a Lexie Carver will start appearing on the blog soap. From the head writer himself we have learned that she has been given a contract just like Craig Lawlor and will stay with AOL for the foreseeable future. When we contacted Renee Jones herself she had this to say, “I am so happy Michael Amello decided to bring Lexie on his show. It’s great to be working in a major story again.” When we asked Michael Amello why he decided to bring Lexie back to the canvas he responded saying, “Renee Jones is a superb actress. It would be stupid in my mind not to have her on screen. I knew from the first day of production that I wanted to bring Lexie back into the fold and am now happy that fans will finally be able to see her story unfold.”

With this news many fans are speculating if a return of Stefano and Joseph Mascolo is in the cards. Also adding to that speculation is how in episode 12, E.J’s Prisoners are Revealed, E.J was shown talking to Stefano, though he was not seen to viewers. Sadly an AOL rep declined to comment on this particular rumour. Hopefully in time we will get to the bottom of this.

Welcome to the mySON TV Insider!

This has been in the works for the past couple of months. As we strive to improve the blogs and features for it's blog writers, we will come up with new ideas to make things interesting.

Over the coming weeks there will be news, previews, interviews and more posted here and in the mySON TV Forum. We ask that you support this new feature as much as possible. We're always looking for more help.
