Members NothinButAttitude Posted July 23, 2022 Members Share Posted July 23, 2022 @victoria foxton, I NEED to see this episode. Who's arm do I need to twist to see it?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Yes, it's the same person. Just sent you a link to the group. You're welcome. You're welcome. It's surreal that they don't want to make money. Out of the treasure trove of vintage episodes they possess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 23, 2022 Members Share Posted July 23, 2022 You mean P&G? Or the collector. Unless episodes are in HD quality, I Don think episodes would sell very well, at least not consistently. This is why B&B is streaming their classic episodes on their own YouTube channel and even there, people often complain about the poor visual quality. By the standards of today, I don’t see many people buying anything less than 1080p quality. The SoapsClassics people understood this, which is why every single DVD that they sold was in such clear visual quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I meant P&G. You made a great about the quality. Let's say P&G came out with a streaming service for their soaps. And it was in HD quality. I do think P&G would make money out of it. I do know all of us SON members would subscribe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Joseph Posted July 23, 2022 Members Share Posted July 23, 2022 You said it! That's true, I would if I could, of course restoring such episodes would take some time but I'm pretty sure it would be worth it, isn't The Doctors Proving it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) I love Retro TV for restoring The Doctors entire run. Edited July 23, 2022 by victoria foxton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrenchFan Posted July 23, 2022 Members Share Posted July 23, 2022 I would pay to see soaps from the 1970s’ in all their glory ! Why can’t networks get that they are sitting on a gold mine ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 23, 2022 Members Share Posted July 23, 2022 It’s very interesting because Netflix lost nearly a million subscribers this year, but you know what type of streaming service is doing very well? Free Ad-Supported Television A.K.A. “FAST”. The Pluto TV and Freevee type streamers. P&G could be doing their own version of FAST and running ads for their own products. They could even run retro commercials on a regular basis and fans would watch. It would be akin to comfort food. Have soap stars film a brief introduction to announce episodes that were really groundbreaking or were a fan favorite. Have fans vote for their favorite episodes beforehand. There are genuine possibilities to make use of the P&G library. Hell, even the music for pivotal scenes, have segments where the musicians talk about how a certain song was used for episodes or characters. Do you think Jermaine Jackson or Billy Ocean will turn down the chance to remind people about their hits? We all have seen an artist’s catalog get reactivated because the music was featured on a show. Who wouldn’t want to hear about Gloria Loring’s creative process and how “Friends and Lovers” came to be? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted July 24, 2022 Members Share Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) I don't think anyone is unhappy. I think people are pointing out the lengths they have to go to to see a vintage episode that other genres would have already put out on DVD years ago.

Members Joseph Posted July 24, 2022 Members Share Posted July 24, 2022 I do get that, I for one thing know that better than some, but i really think can't do much about it, It's all on the dumb Hands and heads of P&G executives 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
