Webmaster Errol Posted August 26, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted August 26, 2008 Boo, lol. I just notice it more at OLTL than AMC. AMC has the advantage of having a bigger studio though. OLTL is stuck in a small building in front of ABC Headquarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Hey, I never said I thought Days was high art. Don't all four West Coast soaps have four contract directors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dm. Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Ah, Buffy and Angel. The memories are just making me take out the DVDs and watch again.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 I did that once the network TV season ended in May. Although I cheated and skipped Buffy: Season One. Sshh... don't tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted August 26, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted August 26, 2008 While those shows were great, what made them great was the overall WB experience, IMO. My gawd, I loved that network to pieces. The started to suck in 2001-2002, but it was 2003-2004 I just stopped watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadZoe Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Jane's too good to work on a soap. Her humor would get lost in translation and re-writes. Her episodes were some of my favorites with the Buffybot one being at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Y&R and B&B tape 4 days a week now, and since there's a mention of an hour long show, I'm more inclined to say Y&R. I think GH is also tapes 4 days a week, but I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 It could be GH. They go to a 4 day taping schedule during the summer. Last year during the first season of Night Shift, they shot the show on Friday's. I'm not sure how it's done this season. I don't even know when GH goes back to their 5 day a week schedule. *Edit: Saw Alvin already said this....adds more* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 But I thought you were the all knowing one? I think GH also tapes 4 days a week now, I've heard Kimberly McCullough and Jason Thompson say they tape GH from Monday to Thursday and then shoot Night Shift on Friday's.

Webmaster Errol Posted August 26, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted August 26, 2008 The four day a week thing as mentioned above is all year-round though, which GH supposedly only does in the summer. However, considering that GH does pre-tape Maurice and Steve scenes where they can get 2 weeks off, and you wouldn't notice, it is a definite possibility there are conflicting elements in this report so you never really know unless they are directly revealed.

Members Cat Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Oh, the MischaBot! What wonderful memories of Barton's interchangeable happy/sad/angry face. Yes, I gave up after Crazy Oliver. Got back in when Ryan's hot as heck brother showed up. Tuned back out when the show became a parody of itself. Love Jane Espenson and the fact that she appreciates soaps (I suspect a lot of Buffy writers did). Thanks for posting this, Sylph. I am also mighty tempted by that ABC link...

Members EricMontreal22 Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 I was thankful for the WB because they kept the shows on longer than a "big" network woulda but otherwise I gotta disagree--nothing about what network they were on (even when Buffy switched to UPN--I was one of the few who loved Season 6 though 7 was a mess) or the "network experience" influ8enced my viewing--in my part of Canada we didn't even get the WB (we did get UPN--woot :S ) for some reason so I had to watch it later in the week on Canadian stations--didn't make me love the shows any less...

Members BadZoe Posted August 26, 2008 Members Share Posted August 26, 2008 Season 6 was my favorite because it was the most adult. Plus with that much Naked Spike, how could they go wrong. Someo thought Buffy was out of character but I thought she just grew up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
