Members Rocket Man Posted March 31, 2009 Members Share Posted March 31, 2009 TV Guide article Holy Toledo! I'd tell you, I've never seen such rampant press coverage nor a firestorm among blogs, internet and elsewhere about "Guiding Light" these days than any soaps in recent years. For all of this hoopla, CBS should renew GL at least for 2 years! KEEP THE "LIGHT" SHINING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SteveFrame Posted March 31, 2009 Members Share Posted March 31, 2009 There is going to be hoopla over it no matter what. This is the oldest TV show or show in broadcast history. It is definitely going to make news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skiman12082004 Posted March 31, 2009 Members Share Posted March 31, 2009 I am holding out hope that it will survive. But that view changes on a daily basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 31, 2009 Members Share Posted March 31, 2009 I have a friend on the show and I watched it today, I've been trying to watch more often because if it's cancelled I'll wish that I'd watched it more... that's what happened with me and AW. It does not look nearly as bad as it used to. It was actually kinda pretty, Josh was lit very well in his scenes with Reva. I still roll my eyes when Reva "wells up" however, her "I'm fighting back the tears" voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted March 31, 2009 Members Share Posted March 31, 2009 Can someone combine this with the TVWeek article? This is out of control... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 31, 2009 Members Share Posted March 31, 2009 This at least tells us more about what's going on (I didn't know Bloom had dropped hints to them on set that the show would be renewed). That EW article was just terrible and said nothing new, what they did say baffled me, like trying to conflate Y&R and GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoseVioletDaisy Posted April 1, 2009 Members Share Posted April 1, 2009 I think it's important to keep in mind that EVERYBODY so far is only re-printing or quoting the TVWeek article and while the article is certainly true, CBS and the other networks have contracted out development projects in the past with nothing coming of it. CBS would probably be kind of foolish to be entering into negotiations without a backup plan. NBC tried to develop replacements for DOOL and everyone thought that was it for Days but they were renewed less than a week after the development plans were announced. NBC developed a daytime reality show a few years ago, they even hired Millee Taggart as a consultant, but they ended up syndicating it rather than airing it themselves and it was cancelled after three years.
