April 14, 201114 yr Member I really hope that we get the good RC in the last few months of OLTL and not "One Twink to Live" RC. I am sure RC and FV will give a great finale. Now there isn't the threat of cancellation and pure panic mode behind the scenes to improve ratings fast with plots and stunts as all of that is over and now they can focus solely on plotting the final months.
April 14, 201114 yr Member Ouch! cathickland Catherine Hickland Because every show Brian Frons touches, dies, does that make him a serial killer?
April 14, 201114 yr Member One thing is for sure, come July 15th it will certainly be a bittersweet 43rd anniversary for OLTL. AMC won't even get to see another birthday The ratings for the soaps have declined since the moment that they aired and it has never been about quality. NO scripted program lasts forever, the audience gets bored eventually. Also, the daytime audience has dwindled due to social changes. It is unrealistic to expect all the soaps to last until the end of the earth. They were going to get cancelled eventually. The UK soaps have all faced those very same problems and tackled them head on. No, no show is going to last forever, but when the people in charge are passionate about the shows, what they stand for, what they can do, and what they mean (beyond just being series), they're willing to do what it takes to keep these shows not only alive, not only relevant, but also very true to themselves. I can't guarantee that there would have ever been a way to keep AMC or OLTL (or my beloved ATWT) on the air successfully, but in my heart, as someone who lives, breathes, and is fascinated by the story of life, I believe that there was little to no effort at all given in the name of protecting the well-being of these could-be very special, very unique, and very extraordinary shows.
April 14, 201114 yr Member JordiVilasuso Jordi Vilasuso 6 more months of really good show! This has been the best group of people that I've ever worked with. I am blessed to have been part of AMC! yet a month ago it was JordiVilasuso Jordi Vilasuso Nothing but rumors:) RT @KendallAMC @JordiVilasuso so what do you think about the rumors that #AllMyChildren might be getting cancelled? :'(
April 14, 201114 yr Member I just hope that both OLTL & AMC can give the fans a good final months..I heard many GL & ATWT fans complain that the shows weren't that well written before going off the air Ouch! cathickland Catherine Hickland Because every show Brian Frons touches, dies, does that make him a serial killer? FREE LINDSAY RAPPAPORT!!
April 14, 201114 yr Member This is so, so incredibly sad. But at least the shows are in the hands of good writing teams. After "Desperate Housewives" is over, I will never watch a show on ABC again. I am THAT enraged. Not because the soaps weren't going to end sooner or later but because they employed Brian Frons as the head of ABC Daytime, someone who clearly has ZERO respect or interest in the genre and turned GH into a primetime mob show off of Showtime.

April 14, 201114 yr Member Ouch! cathickland Catherine Hickland Because every show Brian Frons touches, dies, does that make him a serial killer? Lol, she's going in on him. I can't blame her though
April 14, 201114 yr Member Ouch! cathickland Catherine Hickland Because every show Brian Frons touches, dies, does that make him a serial killer? Bitter because they probably won't invite her for the finale, or because they've forgotten about her PERIOD. Just sayin'...
April 14, 201114 yr Member yet a month ago it was I know, but you can't blame him. He was in the dark like everyone else.
April 14, 201114 yr Member I know, but you can't blame him. He was in the dark like everyone else. Uhuh.
April 14, 201114 yr Member Bitter because they probably won't invite her for the finale, or because they've forgotten about her PERIOD. Just sayin'... You're right, but Tonja Walker badmouthed him too and she still appears on OLTL every so often. He may just rub some actors the wrong way.
