I think there is a way to write a story that unfolds for years yet can still be fast-paced. OLTL has told short stories in the last few years that seem to go on forever because they are such a mess and made up as they go along (I can't say with AMC because I haven't watched regularly in recent years).

Frons is such an !@#$%^&*], hes the worst kind of scum on the planet as he killed ABC soaps. What he did was he took away the visionary like the Wendy Riche or Linda Gottlieb away from ABC and got figureheads to do his dirty work. Honestly cancelling both is just like him to do. AMC being cancelled doesn't affect me the way OLTL getting cancelled. OLTL is one of my all time favorite soaps. I used to watch for years and years and it saddens me that it will no longer be here. Its so weird AMC will go before OLTL which means OLTL lived longer. OLTL I am so happy it made it to the final soaps on air. Today is truly the end of a genre and era. Its OVER. Llanview will go off into the sunset forever and I am so tearing up to watch the finale. These soaps will forever live in SOAP legacy. The new soaps on the air are BRAVO'S The Housewives. These are the new soaps on air, we have Real Housewives of BH, NY, NJ and look at Jersey Shore the show has big numbers. Its a reality TV land.

I agree. I really do. But I just hope they don't decide to move these stories even faster which I'm afraid they will to fit everything in. I can't wait to see what RC and FV come up with. I am not sorry I started watching this show lat year and only mad at myself for not getting into it sooner

Wondering if LoBRo brings MCE to give Annie/JR thier happy ending. Or JR ends all alone.

TBQH I think we'll see w/ AMC ending, Lucci's final storyline most likely will be the character's curtain call. That would signal the end of AMC. Erica Kane dies peacefully.

    • What AW stories do you think of as DOOLish? I mean AW, in a very positive way was KNOWN for its comedic elements. From Iris's maid, Vivian, to the naming of plants, to highjinks with Cass, Felicia, Wally & even Lily, plus remember Dee Evans & Tony the Tuna? In a way at one time DAYS had similar with Caliope & Eugene. 
    • Were those reasons to do with having younger children on set? Other shows seem to manage. The ageing up of the kids has been one of the mistakes the show has made.
    • I agree.  Lemay was supposed to start in early 88 and we saw some of the writing on the wall with character reference from the past.  Notably, the core families Frames, Cory, Matthews.  The stupid Reginald Love was wrapped up.  Not even a year later Mary was written out of the show along with Vince and the McKinnons who came and left .  The previous writers tried to introduce a new family that never aspired with the viewers.  1988 was focused on the 25th anniversary of show in 1989 and suspect why Lemay was asked to come back in 88.  Prior to 1988, the storylines were so DOOL stupid.
    • That's true. He may have ended up keeping her on a recurring basis, like Dr. Michaels on ATWT. I'm trying to remember if GL had a similar long-running therapist.
    • Oh in terms of ratings I think it would have been in a dicey place probably even before then. I mostly was just thinking of if the show could have carried on creatively. 
    • Even if by some miracle Knots Landing continued, 1994/95 it would have been killed by ER.

    • Assuming that Marland had been allowed to write the Carrie story the way he'd envisioned, Millette would've been involved in the story. And she might've played a role in Andy Norris' return (if the speculation on that had ever materialized, and Marland loved bringing back bad boys) But he doesn't seem interested in Sara's personal life. And the women of Springfield could only be analyzed so much.
    • This better be something, because as I said, so far it's just cliches and stereotypes -- the story we've heard a thousand times about the homeless person who doesn't want a home and prefers to live on the streets.
    • @rsclassicfanforever thank you very much for the recent uploads of season 13 containing some episodes that were skipped or glitchy on YouTube!  I had a look at 3172 though and there is no audio for most of it? Would you have a copy with complete audio? Fingers crossed! Thanks again!
