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.

    • In a way, it's a shame that Lynne Adams decided to leave the show when she did, because I think Mike and Leslie were positioned very well to become GL's tentpole couple.
    • Correct. Lynne Adams (Leslie) decided she wanted to leave the show, as Leslie hadn't been given much to do since Adams returned as Leslie in 1973 (and now everyone can witness her first scene returning as Leslie in 1973 on YT - unreal) I don't think the Dobsons tried to stop that from happening, as I think they wanted Mike single again. I agree, @DeeVee - they should have let Mike and Leslie have a child together. I wonder it they thought it would be too strange to have two siblings that could also be cousins

      . As far as Ed and Holly go, at least they allowed Ed to show up at the end of TGL and take Holly on a "trip around the world". IMHO, I don't think Peter Simon had as much chemistry with Maureen Garrett as Mart Hulswit had, but I'm glad the show gave them a final scene together.
    • IF this gets a renewal I can't see LY sticking around    
    • Well, I'm glad to know Devane and I are on the same wavelength, lol.  But seriously.  I don't believe there's any other word to describe the machinations that the producers constructed in the name of keeping Greg and Paige apart.  Greg and Paige made Sam and Diane look mature by comparison! Which would have been just as well, since a character like Greg Sumner didn't really belong in the '90's, as the storyline with the task force proved only too well.  If KL had returned for another season, it would've needed a MASSIVE overhaul, including ditching Greg, Paige, Claudia and Anne.  Mack and Karen would've needed to be there for the sake of continuity; and maybe some mileage could've been gained from exploring Gary's new life as a widowed single father.  (I still would've loved to bring back Julie Harris and have Lilimae help Gary take care of the twins).  Otherwise, it would've been a new era for KL, one without The Sumner Group, or stories like Wolfbridge and Empire Valley.

    • Didn't she know when she involved him in her scheme, before the character was introduced? I thought she tracked down Janice's son and poisoned his mind against Rachel in order to get him on board.  It's a bit confusing because in the summer of 1988 we get a lot of Drew Marsten (whom I had forgotten was Nicole's ex) and mentions of a mysterious Countess and also Reginald working to undermine Cory. Drew disappears around the same time Evan arrives, and gradually we get the reveals that he is in cahoots with Iris, Janice's son, etc. 
    • I apply totally different standards. For Felicia & anyone else in Bay City it's reel as opposed to out here in the universe where it's real.
