May 15, 200718 yr Member Passions Harmony will debut on NBC.com when Passions moves to DirecTV in the fall. "Interestingly enough, daytime staple Passions will also feature a series of new webisodes when the show moves from broadcast to DirecTV." http://newteevee.com/2007/05/14/nbc-mtv-if...r-online-shows/ “Passions†- The popular “Passions†webisodes are back with their third installment, “Passions Harmony.†http://www.mytvisonfire.com/couchpotato/20...line-offerings/ "Coastal Dreams" debuts online this fall: "In addition to extensions of on-air programming, NBC.com will also be debuting the web-exclusive new series “Coastal Dreams,†a new, young soap opera with an attractive cast and all of the drama and excitement of daytime." Coastal Dreams was originally entitled "The Cove" and was to be an online spinoff of Passions. Edited May 15, 200718 yr by RionPassions
May 15, 200718 yr Author Member This is still gonna suck. Why? For those of us who can't get DirecTV, we'll be able to at least see Passions in this form.
May 15, 200718 yr Member They should have just cut PSNS to 30 minutes and aired Coastal Dreams between DOOL and PSNS. NBC is so retarded, no one will invest in an online series. LOL at the fact they are pimping it as a show that will include "the drama and excitement of daytime" when NBC doesn't even believe in daytime.

May 15, 200718 yr Member Why should Passions have to suffer for Coastal Dreams? Passions already suffers because of James Reilly. NBC fans have suffered with that blight on it's schedule for years. Coastal Dreams will hopefully be a better show.

May 15, 200718 yr Member Um, you're kidding, right? Because I was LMAO at this post! Well I hope you laugh a lot because I meant what I said.
May 15, 200718 yr Member Why should Passions have to suffer for Coastal Dreams? Yes, god forbid anyone say anything remotely wrongs about Passions. Stop talking what people say so personally. Everything gets blown way out of proportion with you its like we have to be so carefull to not say anything wrong about Passions or suffer the wrath. Anyway, I have to right to my opinions and yes, I think that a 30 minute Passions and Coastal Dreams would work in your favor because as of September 7th, you won't be able to see Passions unless you move to the USA, and honestly, I wouldn't even be surprised if you did just to watch that show! The DirectTV ensures cast cuts and it will only be on for 4 days a week. With 30 minutes, they'd still be on 5 days a week on an actual network. Also, how long do you think it will last on DirectTV?
May 15, 200718 yr Administrator http://www.mediaweek.com/mw/search/article...t_id=1003579095 Eisner's 'Prom' Seeing Web Success Mike Shields MAY 01, 2007 - Less than halfway through its 80-day run, Prom Queen, the daily teen-aimed online soap opera launched by Michael Eisner’s new production firm, is showing signs of becoming a modest hit, if short of an Internet sensation thus far. According to Vuguru, the Eisner-backed Web production firm that is churning out eighty 90-second episodes of Prom Queen in as many days, the short-form series is averaging roughly 200,000 views a day, and has accumulated more than 5.2 million views since its April 2 debut. While relevant benchmarks are hard to come buy in this uncharted space, the show’s daily audience is equivalent to a low-rated cable series, though much smaller than individual clips of popular YouTube ‘series’ like lonelygirl15, which sometimes yield more than a million views. However, a number that is sure to be encouraging to Vuguru (and the producers of the movie Hairspray, a Prom Queen sponsor) is the 18,000-plus friends that Prom Queen has garnered. MySpace, one of several outlets where fans can stream the show, accounts for nearly 3.7 million of the views generated to date, making the site far and away the leading distributor (MySpace gets each episode 12 hours before other sites do). Veoh, which hosts a Prom Queen channel, has generated the second largest number of views (854,653), followed by YouTube (232,382) and PromQueen.tv. Other sites streaming the soap are StarStyle.com and Ellegirl.com, as well as Verizon’s V Cast platform. (Mobile streaming figures are not included in these numbers.) So, you never know.......Coastal Dreams could be quite popular.

It'll last at least a year longer than it would have on NBC. I'd rather have 4 hours of Passions a week than 2.5. I get it---you hate Passions. What. Ever!!!!
May 15, 200718 yr Member So, you never know.......Coastal Dreams could be quite popular. That's interesting...but how many have heard about "Prom Queen"? They need to market the hell of it (Coastal Dreams). Hopefully if the online soap community gathers and supports the hell out of this show NBC could consider adding it to the schedule. I wish we had more information on Coastal Dreams...whose writing it and starring in it. I just can't get over the fact that they cancel Passions, announce the end of Days of our Lives and then launch a new soap online. Mixed signals.
