AMC and OLTL Canceled!

That was Eva Luna. It was a great soap opera. I watched the finale and loved it.

Eric, you cant catch them on youtube?? Or on the Univision website??

They're better off not on Y&R.

Frons: don't expect to see erica kane on gh, I can only see her in pine valley(something to that effect). Thats code for we can't afford her on gh and don't even think about.

Actually if they still wrote for women they might still be fairly successful. I think the bizarre and often virulent misogyny of the last 15 years chased away more viewers than OJ or cable or the idea that women only worked after 1995 ever could.

From the deadline article:

As for the only remaining ABC daytime drama, General Hospital, it is safe "for the time being," Frons said, adding, "We feel very positive about its place on the schedule." GH ranks No. 2 in daytime in the key women 18-49 demographic, while AMC and OLTL both trail the competition. However, don't expect Susan Lucci's trademark character Erica Kane to check into GH. "It's hard to envision Erica anywhere else but Pine Valley," Frons said. He added that he had spoken with Agnes Nixon, creator of both AMC and OLTL, who is now "focused on providing emotional, satisfying ending" to the shows.

Chris Jericho has excellent taste. Of all the soap couples I ever saw, Greg and Jenny towers above them all. They were the perfect soap couple.

Haven't posted in a while, but I've been keeping up with all the rumors and developments. Even though I expected it deep down, this still hurts so much. I'll miss both shows, mainly AMC, terribly. Hopefully they'll get the quality endings that they deserve.

I forgot HBS will be without a job. She is a great actress. Maybe she and CZP can do a reality show...lol......meow......lol

Y&R, snatchin yo vets! Maria be casting eeerrrrybody.

[Marco Dane]

ABC fucked with the wrong fans...

[JNewt]

Yeah that was the name of it, I've watched telenovelas in the past but the only problem was I needed an English button but they never made one like they did with SAP. LOL!

I wish those soaps were presented in English and I wish those ones produced overseas from countries like England and Australia would be syndicated here. I would start moving my soap viewing to those kind of soaps and abandon the American ones completely.

+1.

What's sad for fans of OLTL is when he says the decision to cancel both shows only came within the past week (he says they had already decided to ditch one show weeks ago)...no doubt at that meeting with Anne Sweeney. Since OLTL is the one getting the extra four months on the air, it was clearly the one that was going to be spared until at least September 2012 if they had gone ahead and only canceled one of the shows.

[Ryan Chamberlain]

LOL. That would probably be the only reality show I would ever watch.

Hell to the yes!

[DeeeDee]

Every 40+ actress on that show needs to be worried.
