Members Scotty Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I was just checking things out at abcmedianet.com and ran across this new OLTL logo. The AMC and GH logos on their respective show pages at the site still have the same logos from the present openings, but the one from OLTL that did have "OLTL" in big letters with "One Life to Live" in small type in front of it has been replaced by this: Wonder if this means that a totally new OLTL opening is coming for the show's 40th anniversary on July 15th? I honestly have no idea, but it has made me curious. This was the logo that had been posted on the OLTL page at MediaNet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I hope so. The current one has no focus and looks extremely cheap. I'd design the images around Snoop's theme myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 We may be getting one Scotty (I hope so). Though I'm not mistaken, that is the logo that is shown in promos and during previews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 i doubt it. thats prob just a new logo. i know everyone keeps saying EZ said she taped a new opening, BUT imho that was the new bumper shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scotty Posted May 30, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I'm nearly positive that you are correct, but why would they exchange the logo from the opening with it at MediaNet for only OLTL, and not the other two? And why now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 Maybe the others are gonna be changed too. I hope you're right though. This one is a hot mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scotty Posted May 30, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I know....but I keep hoping and praying that they are working on a new opening....and the 40th anniversary would be the perfect time to debut it. I hope not....but you're right too, this opening is crappy. I like the music, but the pictures are awful. And they were even worse with Snoop Dogg's theme, again all because of the crappy images.

Members dragonflies Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 AMC has YET to get new bumpers like OLTL and GH did. Maybe it's just a new logo but not a new opening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted May 31, 2008 Members Share Posted May 31, 2008 I always did like the bumper images, with AMC and the pearls, GH and the stethoscope, and OLTL and the scales of justice. I like them as simple bumper images, but I don't think they'd work as actual opening credits sequences. AMC needs the damn photo album and GH needs some hospital/ambulance action (you know, since that's totally represented by the current opening). OLTL's symbols is so nonexistent, it's sad. Especially considering they've had three symbols that would have worked marvelously: the fire, the sunrise/clouds, and Llanview itself. Honestly, OLTL should have GL's opening, but with more prominent headshots and a less shitty song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AddictedToSoaps Posted May 31, 2008 Members Share Posted May 31, 2008 I think it's just a promo logo. I would love it if OLTL got a new opening though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted May 31, 2008 Members Share Posted May 31, 2008 I want the show to go back to the Tour of Llainview II Opening. The visuals were beautiful and the music was upbeat and catchy. It's also the OLTL opening I grew up on.

Members All My Shadows Posted June 1, 2008 Members Share Posted June 1, 2008 All of the ABC shows could go back to to their pre-rebranding openings and I'd have no problems about it all. All three were visually stunning and just very beautiful ways to begin the shows. The dark, depressing openings we have now are just horrible. I'd love a Tour of Llanview opening that begins with a sunrise and ends with clouds. That'd tie together two of OLTL's almost-symbols perfectly.

Members detroitpiston Posted June 1, 2008 Members Share Posted June 1, 2008 I actually like AMC's current opening. But the GH opening needs to go. It's nothing compared to the FOTH opening.
