Members MarkH Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 It's actually quite impressive that ABC is investing in HD for all. That's actually the biggest sign of hope for these shows, I think. Their look is being modernized, and they will be around for at least as long as needed to pay off that investment. (I guess the equipment can be used for other shows too, but not really--how many HD videotaped programs requiring big studios are there?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 All Eden said was she was worried the depts would change, i.e. the existing NY hair/makeup/etc crew would be out of a job. There's nothing remotely scandalous about that. I'm sure everyone at AMC right now is thinking of their crew, some of whom have been there for decades. Those people work like dogs in a thankless industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 TK did Port Charles. Yes, the bicoastal thing sucks...but I see no reason for him to stay in NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 If that's it, then they're probably renting CBS Studio Center, where Passions used to tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Oooooooooooooh. Didn't that used to be called the "Radford studios" or something? Hesser knows that place like the back of her hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted August 4, 2009 Administrator Share Posted August 4, 2009 Ah..okay....it's probably old info then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hair and makeup become like friends or family to many cast members, they're always there if you need to talk, or need your space, or anything. I can see how upset some might be if they're losing their jobs, some people keep those jobs for decades. I don't even know what to think about this move. I keep thinking about that episode 25+ years ago where Erica had her photo shoot in New York and everything seemed so alive. Now whenever I see AMC, I hear Taps.

Members Sylph Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Like I said, I might have misunderstood, but her wording... Suggested she said something different. Nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 You may be right. Some of her tweets annoy me. I was just thinking of some of the old backstage stuff they used to have for soaps and the hair and makeup people were clearly so loved by cast members.

Members dragonflies Posted August 4, 2009 Author Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 What a nice present for these people for the holidays, they get to lose their jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scotty Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 You know, the odd part of alll this is, they are expected to start moving in December and taping in L.A. on Jan. 4th, one day before AMC's 40th anniversary. Guess that means no big celebration then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PAsoapfan Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Finally a chance for some of this awful cast to leave AMC Alicia, Cameron, Thorsten, Denise, Brianne etc. On the goodside we may see Walt Willey actually stick around since he lives in New Mexico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Cameron, Alicia, and Thorsten are three of their stars, so I doubt they will go. Denise and Brianne are probably dirt cheap, so they'll probably stay. If I were AMC I would cut MEK loose. Tad is done as a character anyway. I know Bobbie Eakes has worked in LA before, for many years, but I won't be shocked if she goes either. Pratt clearly hates Krystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CassieFan Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 I highly doubt we'll get rid of Ryan Lavery's presence in Pine Valley. Alicia and Thorsten possibly. Denise and Brianne - DEAR LORD PLEASE!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PAsoapfan Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Well atleast i hope/dream that the ones listed leave it would make this viewer very happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
