Members Khan Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 Even better, let's mail orphans to Brian Frons' offices @ ABC. (Get it? Because, the show is called ALL MY CHILDREN?) ;-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RavenWhitney Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 It's sad but the Broderick news just confirms for me that this show will be canceled. She and Aggie will write the end. I will watch; it will be good. I have no love loss for OLTL...it was too Santa Barbaraish for me...Ron can join Y&R. I think he could help MAB and Sheffer.

Members NYC123 Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 This is really sad. I actually have to agree with what Jamey said actually.... OLTL will be gone first because the 2pm timeslot is A LOT more desirable and The Talk is just behind OLTL by only 100k in the demos. AMC's timeslot at 1pm has tougher competition, with Y&R, DAYS and B&B. Well I guess that is it folks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 Exactly. I certainly cannot speak for SL, but I wonder if a part of her sees cancellation as a personal relief, life making a very difficult decision for her. She has bank, she never has to work another day in her life (and I'm assuming it's been that way for years now), no more flying back and forth on AMC's schedule, plenty of time to spend with her daughter's three children, short flights down to PA to do HSN appearances, short fun trips to L.A. for episodic work should she book it. She's done a cabaret act at Feinstein's already, but she could parlay All My Life into an off-Broadway (even a limited tour to small houses) stage production like Stricth, Arthur, and most recently Collins, adding in the cancellation stuff and just maybe a little more juice to keep her audience glued.

Members Bella1974 Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 I think we'll know before the upfronts, because ABC will want to make sure that all of the attention is on the new shows, and not on the canceled ones, especially not AMC and it's biggest star.

Members LoyaltoAMC Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 So where will Kreizman and Swajeski wind up next? He'll probably do some reality show crap. As for her, maybe Frons et al will have pity on her and move her over to the GH breakdown or scriptwriting team. Has she ever worked with Guza before? Surely their paths must've crossed at some point. I really had decent hopes for them when they were first named. Well, him more than her. I always thought of her as rather meh, especially from her tenure at AW which I thought at best was derivitive and unimaginative. Thought maybe his fresh ideas and her longevity in daytime would spark something. Well, at least they didn't do any susbtantive damage to the show a la McTavish, and actually built somewhat of a framework for Broderick to start off with. Just hope she has time to prove herself, but more and more, it's looking like the end is near. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 Richard Simms and Dan Kroll will be addressing the rumors (and most likely confusing us even more) on soaps indepth abc's podcast in about 45 minutes: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/tuneintomorrow/2011/04/04/setting-the-rumors-straight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 4, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 Our luck they'll end up back on the writing staff like the Bears did. I hope someone can post what they said. Richard is a straight shooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NYC123 Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 Also I am not surprised DAYS isn't close to being canceled. NBC has lower standards ratings wise. When you look at their primetime ratings, they are NOT good if they were on ABC, CBS or FOX. NBC has lower standards. I think ABC is doing a huge restructuring. I hope it's for the better.

Members Llantano Incorporated Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 In all honesty, I have never wanted two shows to be cancelled more than OLTL and AMC. At this point, this is just horrible. It is like waiting in a hospital waiting room after a serious accident of someone you love. I want to find out here and not on my Comcast homepage or something while at work! It is time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 I wonder what this news means for OLTL: http://soapoperadigest.com/news/breaking/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 I always thought Days would be the next to go. I think they're renewed through 2013. Someone correct me if I wrong. Whenever that expires, I wouldn't expect another renewal. I think GH will go on a few more years, since they're clearly invested in keepin it around. Sad that in 3 years, only Y&R, B&B, and GH will be around. Very sad but inevitable I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 Ohhhh myyyyyyy goddddddddddd, it's like they keep turning our heads with stuff they know is gonna get fans of both shows talking. "Look, here's a Lorraine Broderick promoted to HW to play with for you, AMCers. And for you, OLTLers, you can have the Roger Howarth returns. Now stop asking me which one of you I'm going to murder." Quit lyyyyying, Frank, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
