KEEP THE "LIGHT" SHINING!!!!!!!!!

I've been saying for a very long time BOTH P&G soaps should be 30 mins.

This is what I would like to see on CBS Daytime.

P&G's soaps - 30 mins

Bell's soaps - 1 hour long

Can't P&G sign some deal with the Bells to get them a schedule(below) like this on CBS?

I'm going to use my NYC time as an example.

Y&R - 12:30 - 1:00(1st half)

GL - 1:00 - 1:30

Y&R - 1:30 - 2:00(2nd half)

B&B - 2:00 - 2:30(1st half)

ATWT - 2:30 - 3:00

B&B - 3:00 - 3:30(2nd half)

Or is that wishful thinking? IMO, this schedule would be awesome! It will benefit them all. You're basically making sure they watch all of the CBS soaps.

From everything that I have read though the production costs between an hour and a 30 minute show are not that different despite the time. So if it boils down to a cost issue, cutting it won't make a difference.

I am loving me some Ann. We have similar taste in actors (especially the bad ones. ahem. Farah) and production values.

Right back at you, rangethatrover.

I'm not sure what calling Guiding Light will do - it's not like GL decides if they're going to be canceled or not.

Entertainment Weekly says that an insider at GL confirms the axe is likely to fall within the next month (but it will air until September).

Sad news for the genre.

And then there were 7......

2008- Passions

2009- Guiding Light

2010- All My Children

My guess would be

2010 ATWT

2011 OLTL

2012 AMC

2010 ATWT

2011 OLTL

2012 AMC

I still think all the ABC shows will go at the same time. They own all three of them, and not one of them does significantly better or worse than the other two.

I thought it was pretty sure to be getting renewed, at least it was looking that way. I dont know why but I have a hard time believing this, while I totally knew Passions would be a goner as soon as NBC found something they thought was viable enough to replace it.

Part of me wonders if GL really is a goner, so many steps have been taken to get it in much better shape that I don't see CBS cutting it; I thought this new production model meant it was actually generating a profit?

I am a fool hoping that EW is wrong. It is delaying the inevitable, but I hope that GL gets another year. We'll know by next month either way.

It's going to be "next month" in a couple of days.

Very strange to me that all of these articles are breaking a couple days before April .

Last year, CBS didn't renew ATWT and GL until they announced their fall primetime skeds in mid-May.

So it could take until then (Wednesday, May 20th) before they make any announcement. (Plus, it would give them the added benefit of "burying" the news amid all the other schedule changes).

I feel like slapping that bitch, Lynette Rice for writing such a stupid article. It is nothing but pure garbage. All she does is bash the show when she has no clue what's it about. An insider "confirmed" to EW that the show is going off air? Too bad the "insider" didn't even leave them a comment on what's going on. A typical soap bashing article from a reject.

GL will always have a special place in my heart, even if I just can't get behind what it is right now. However, since many are enjoying it at the moment, wouldn't it be better to go out on top, rather than going out way past your prime?
