Glad it's finally official. ITA -- AF definitely holds her own against the power actresses. She'll be a boost to B&B, based on what I've been reading. It's too bad that CBS doesn't force B&B to expand to an hour and then create a half-hour game show to replace ATWT. The show has so much history and they cast strong actors, but then squander them (e.g. Lesli Kay, who will be available again after ATWT wraps).

Yep.

If the Bells had any sort of business sense, they would have went an hour about ten years ago. So, when CBS cancels B&B, they are still selling their product in half-hour chunks to Italy well after the show meets its demise here in the states.

Something tells me The Bells, even if they did agree to forego the staff's long vacations for an hourlong format, would never want to foot the bill themselves to go the full hour. Would cost way too much money and it's always been about ownership of the product and brand with them, which would be difficult to maintain in this economic environment. Just ask the Dobsons.

Very good points all around.

The Dobsons set the precedent for getting screwed over by selling control and it seems the Bells took the opposite approach and preferred the control the half hour has given them. They've got plenty of business sense, they own miles of LA real estate, but any talent when it comes to soaps died with Bill.
