Members Mona Kane Croft Posted April 28 Members Share Posted April 28 The Contessa is absolutely correct. If and when new soap operas are developed, tptb are not likely to look backward and reboot classic soaps. And even if they did, only AMC and OLTL would stand even a snowball's chance of that happening. Tptb are going to look forward and create new shows. And those in charge are going to want credit ($$$) for creating each new soap. Why would anybody go to the trouble of rebooting an old soap opera, and then send Agnes Nixon's estate or P&G a big check for the rights?? My biggest hope is that the new creators use some wisdom and consider what types of soap operas might actually survive in todays media market. Personally, I believe it would be wise for each new soap opera to premiere as a 30-minute five-day a week show; on broadcast, streaming platforms, and International syndication. The new shows should only expand to 60-minutes if and when there is clear evidence that the audience will continue watching, and the network and platforms agree to continue buying the show -- which I feel is unlikely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted May 1 Members Share Posted May 1 Larkin Douglass Watson III (February 24, 1921 — May 1, 1989) was an American actor. He was best known for his portrayal of Mac Cory on the daytime soap opera Another World. On May 1st, 1989, Doug Watson got off a plane & went to a dude ranch for a week of R&R. The first thing he did was join an exercise class & then dropped dead of a massive heart attack. AW was all set to celebrate Cory Publishing anniversary, all about his character, Mac Cory. There went 18 months of story.

Members Mona Kane Croft Posted May 1 Members Share Posted May 1 Does anyone happen to remember the maiden names of Mary Matthews and Liz Matthews? Ada Hobson's maiden name was Lucas, if I remember correctly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Xanthe Posted May 2 Members Share Posted May 2 On the AWHP character guide for Liz it mentions without explanation that Liz's maiden name may have been Hill. I did a little poking around and found that the source was the scripts used for the 1966 daily synopses. See the note on April 8. http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/aw1966.html There is nothing mentioned for Mary on her page in the character guide. I started looking through the AW Bible on the AWHP but haven't come across any hints so far. I will refrain from attempting to start the rumour that obviously it must have been Russell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
