ABC has this great backcatalog of both AMC and OLTL, at this point it seems even more stupid to not make some money off it. I admit while I'm sure it would never make financial sense for them, if there was a pay site to watch daily AMC from 1977 or whenver they started saving it on, I'd be in.

BTW...here is something to think about:

The shows' profitability is determined by the Demos. W18-34 and W18-49. That is what sets the ad buy rates. This past week DAYS and B&B both finished a tenth of a point lower than OLTL in each category. And their respective networks don't own them, like the way ABC does own its soaps. What does that say about where DAYS and B&B stand at the moment, and how bright their futures appear to be?

Frons from the EW article:

“Viewership for the shows is in a decline,” he said. “We had trouble making profit on these shows, particularly on All My Children.”

I'm willing to bet if OLTL had been moved to LA instead of AMC, it would not have been canceled with AMC today. But Frons bet on the wrong horse.

Jackie M is so played out and I think the show finally realizes it as they havent been featured in months. The stuff with Jackie, Owen and Bridget was going strong last year and now its non-existent. Id love to see the REAL Spectras return and not this cheap immitation.

    • I would love if Sarah were already pregnant and then, even with the reveal that she knew about the letter, that she and Xander would work on things to keep their family intact. But I fear that time is running out. Whatever Philip is doing is probably going to mess up everything. I do like that Kayla and Sarah mentioned the Horton legacy with the hospital and that Kayla would much prefer Xander financing it over EJ. Xander is suddenly Horton adjacent. Belle is as usual a massive hypocrite whining about 'everything' Xander has done to her family when EJ raped her sister, kept her cancer ridden toddler from her, helped Nicole keep the baby she had stolen from Sami for a year, shot her dad in the head, and as recently as last year railroaded her innocent teen nephew into prison where he was beaten up. Sure, Xander shot Brady and Marlena but both of them seem to be over it. Cat should have just graciously accepted Xander's apology. I actually like that he treated Felicity like anybody else and did not coddle her. I hope we see him apologizing though. I wonder if Cat knows that Xander shot their granddad Kon dead last year? She might like him better if she knew. I wonder who is calling her? My money is on Gwen for some reason. I feel like Cat and Chad will get comfy and then we will find out Abby is out there and Gwen has had her. EJ and Cat were far more palatable than Chad and Cat, but EJ makes everybody easier to tolerate. Roman and Kate vs Johnny and Paulina... not sure which were more boring. I guess I'll go with Roman and Kate because he speaks so darn slowly now. Philip is entertaining the heck out of me. I hope he ends up the hero who saves Bo. I think it would be hysterical if he managed to get his hands on the Versovix and EJ ends up buying a useless money pit of a hospital.
    • I just start to laugh thinking about the interview where Leslie related its being Tom Donovan who talked her into doing GH & then, once she was settled in & looked around for him, he had JUST vanished!! 
    • We probably would if the writers bothered to write for them... but they've proven unable to write anything for them.  Even though Ashley has potential as a character.   @janea4oldMy theory is that Joey might end up being Ashley's father... but time will tell.
    • But, you have to admit, Dani seems to be, relishing in the fact that she is not the only one in pain, or had a trash husband. That's how it is coming across to me, she is enjoying this too much!
    • I assume not as we would have probably heard, but she could have been a good fit. I could see her being a good Leslie Brooks recast, although by that point the show had fully moved on from Leslie.  I'm not sure who she could have been on B&B, although I could see her playing yet another Beth Logan recast.
    • Are we supposed to care about Ashley and Derek 
    • Yes, I am glad to hear that. I personally feel he shines in other areas.
