Deadline Hollywood Says AMC May Be A Goner

Instead of Nelson vs. Jamey it's Ricky vs. Jamey.

I really wish they would stop trying to be like primetime journalist.

[dragonflies]

I can't wait for Jamey to read that. I think some already have tweeted it to him

[Juliajms]

Of course they did. We're soap fans because we love drama.

[dragonflies]

Yeah that we are I can't wait for his response, this like a train wreck where you just can't look away

[Clear Drama]

YESSSSSSSSSSSS!

I actually think Days will be safe for a very long time. On another site, can't remember which one, they showed the top 10 shows for online streaming and both Days and Y&R had a ton of viewers beating out many primetime hit shows.

The networks have had trouble making money off online viewing but this should change soon. As we move into the era of 'Google TV', soaps will have a far better chance to compete. I was suprised to see no ABC soap on the top ten list. We are coming into an era where time slot will mean less and less when soaps can be viewed on demand with longer term advert contracts.

NBC will never find a cheaper option than Days (100,000 per episode) with a higher return in terms of both TV and web ad sales. No game show will be a better investment due to Days good demos.

B&B's Intl ratings alone whoop both those shows. B&B will be on for a long lonnnnnnnng time.

[Cheap21]

international ratings have no bearing on any of this. Sunset Beach did well overseas and it still got canned. Same was true for other soaps. CBS cares what B&B can do for it. High ratings on other networks in other countries mean nothing to them.

@rickygoldin Hi Ricky, what I am contesting is the notion that it's "malicious" or a "sin" to report on ABC considering cancelling a soap.

Other numbers: ABC/LA is 818-569-7500, ABC/NY is: 312-456-7777. Say want to "voice your concern that All My Children may be cancelled."

If there is nothing I cannot stand more in this world, it is a fat, gay, Black man with a sense of entitlement. And this is coming from one of the same.

It's area code 212, Walt. Someone in AC 312 Chicago is going to be very unhappy to get all those crazy soap fan calls!

[R Sinclair]

It's so cute! He really, honestly thinks what he's doing is "reporting."

[marceline]

LOL! This just gets crazier and crazier.

That's a real estate consulting firm.
