Deadline Hollywood Says AMC May Be A Goner

[Kylie]

^I just read that. But no one here is going to buy it. She's lying. LOL Thanks for posting it, though.

Come on Mr.Lewis who's gonna pay any mind to that woman after the David stuff. She lies alot!

[Clear Drama]

Yes b/c they still dominate storylines. Look over this past few yrs. 3 characters JR, Tad, David. Now see Marissa and Krystal everytime in thier stories. That's only part of it, then there's Rylee.

[leahanna]

that's my guess it is safe until years end and after May sweeps they will make a decision, talk show or AMC

[All My Shadows]

No offense, but this is incoherent to me. First "the Careys," Caleb, Asher, and Marissa, then Tad, JR, David, Ryan, and Greenlee...what are you trying to say about those characters?

[Clear Drama]

I'm trying to say how they don't mesh w/ them. The Careys/Marissa and Caleb and Asher ruin these characters. Fans don't like them. Rylee is the same effect.

I dunno, she might have "lied" but anyone who paid attention knew VI wasn't done. This last time was totally different then the last time he got fired. I still think it was more something storyline (VI needing personal time, as well) dictated and people played along.

It's a lot different to stand before people and lie to their faces about their livelihood. Which if she did, she's as bad as Frons and ABC.

ALL ABC needs to do is say "AMC is safe for now but thee ratings need to go up."

[All My Shadows]

Where'd you read this at?

[Errol]

If anyone ever expects to hear that, they don't know PR 101. Should any soap ever be cancelled in the next few months, few years, no network executive will say anything about the shows performance which caused the decision. They will always say "after ___ years on the air, _____ will end on _____. _____ is known for telling ____. The show was created by _____ after ____ felt the need to showcase ____. ____ was the _____ rated show on TV. In its ____ years on the air ___ will have earned ____ Emmy Awards."

________ ________ _________

I was going to post the same thing. Who would make that statement?

[dragonflies]

Sadly if they get a repreive they'll blow that too. This show has had so many chances to fix their mistakes and never do

I was thinking that too and DV's tweet seemed like it had a sense of urgency

[Southofnowhere]

Now about ABC just saying AMC is not going anywhere! Not talk about rumors but say AMC is Safe!

[marceline]

I love blaming characters and stories for the ratings as much as anyone but if they've really dodged the bullet, the first thing they need to do is get a new EP to get the budget under control. The budget has apparently been a problem for a long time. Fix it. New EP, then new writers.

I hate Rylee too (so, so much) but they are just a symptom of rampant mismanagement. THAT's what needs to be fixed.

[dragonflies]

Nothing's gonna change unless there's a changing of the guard
