ABC May Be Ready To Trim Its Daytime Drama Lineup: Will 'All My Children' Go?

What did Walt say??

He didn't say anything. He just gave out the wrong number to call and show support for the show. It wasn't totally wrong, it was just the wrong area code.

Peeps were calling a real estate firm in Chicago.

But I think you're frankly reaching here to say none of them have story.

I think what many want is not story, but STORY!. Meaning, "OM(F)G, this [!@#$%^&*] is so good, it's actually giving me orgasms just thinking about it!". (Speaking of...? My roommate's girlfriend is having one next door as I type this. But I digress.)

so what do we think is going on? No soap is being canceled now? Did ABC change their mind

I don't know what "we" think but I haven't seen anything that's changed my mind about how this is all going to go down.

When do you think that started? Early '80s? Did people really regard OLTL as that filler show between AMC and GH? Could it be because OLTL has never had a mainstream iconic breakout character like Erica or Luke&Laura?

Anyone who lived through the 80's knows that's not true. OLTL's "iconic" character then was Andrea Evans' Tina, who was everywhere at the time.

I'm dying from this quote courtesy of Nelson Branco. From Matt Borlenghi (ex Brian Bodine):

That demographic — women 18-49 — well, many of them are the same girls that loved Brian Bodine way back then, and would most likely like to see him back on the canvas. I am ready to ‘go home’ and help get the ship back on the water. Just saying ... tell you what: I believe so strongly in the fans’ desire to see Brian on AMC that I’d work the first month for free. Work my ass off, if you want.

Matt! They'll only have you back if you work for free for 12 months. You're not getting a contract.

Isn't he the one who GH hired as a new Cassadine, but it never happened? The story was postponed or something?

Was that really happening? I thought that was just another rumor.

Unless Kelly Ripa miraculously decides to rejoin the soap, Brian is NOT coming back.

I dunno, I thought he was cast, but it got delayed, I think SON even did a report on it

Hey Carolyn, as a matter of fact I had Tina in mind when I wrote that but I specifically didn't mention her because I didn't think she got the mainstream press that Erica and Luke&Laura did, but I could be wrong.

That was happening. He was in the makeup chair when he was told the story had been postponed. It was dumped for ratings flop James Franco.

Actually, the DVR and being able to act as if those people do not exist is why.

Seriously. UGH! I forget they are a part of the show 90% of the time.

It must take you about 5 minutes to get through a whole episode.

Did he really say that? I liked Brian Bodine.... but not THAT much.

Besides, who could return to AMC w/o it looking completely ridiculous? Genie Francis suggests she would return in the latest SOD, and I'm like, "First of all, Ceara's dead. Second, even if we did go there, everyone connected to your character is long gone, too."

Leo's body was never found, but I only want him back with JD in the role. Vanessa's either. But if they brought her back, she couldn't be the crazy b*tch she was before she left. She worked best when she was spoiled, selfish, self centered, and did actually care about her sons, in her own twisted/sick way. LOL

We could bring back Trey, but that's really only storyline for David/Kendall.

I know Zach will be back at one point or another...so, I'm not suggesting him, nor Dixie. IMO, and I know I'll be ducking tomatoes on this one: Cady is over rated and only a mediocre actress. Plus. Dixie has been back from the dead and died again. it's time for her to rest in peace.

I'd suggest Babe...but, I just can't bare the thought of that contaminating our screens again.

Hmmm,who else?

How did Ceara die again? I'm having a mental block. It happened on Loving, correct?

I know Jeremy was turned into a statue or something.
