I hear rumors that NBC may be thinking of buying OLTL and AMC is it true

If there's a soap God!

From my googling, it does seem that NBC is toying with the idea.

He's not going to say anything until Oprah decides whether to revive Bonanza.

:-D

It isn't happening.

If NBC is actually thinking about buying these shows, I hope any and all negotiations and talks stay as much "under the radar" as possible. Oprah said she wouldn't, and some people were ready to tar and feather her. God knows what they'll do to the folks @ NBC!

It isn't happening.

Oh, Lord.

Well, I just hope not too many people get wind of that. In fact, if I could, I'd let the more delusional ones believe they actually are buying 'em. Otherwise, they'll probably storm Rockefeller Center and turn the building into something out of "Invasion U.S.A."

Send NBC a letter telling them that if they rename AMC "This Is The New Heroes" and OLTL "Why Didn't You Watch Heroes? You Really Liked It At First! Why? Why?", they will become the new hits of the season.

I don't think it's happening. I accept that it isn't...But how great would it be if it DID?

What can they do?? Boycott NBC?? No one watches NBC anymore.....lol

:lol:

If NBC picked them up, they'd no longer be All My Children & One Life to Live..............

I saw you said that on SOC too...But why would that be true? Soaps have moved before and have stayed the same show.

And maybe they could revive Another World and retitle it "Heroes: Back from the Dead"

I can't imagine ABC would sell the shows outright to a rival network and I can't see them letting NBC use alot of the popular characters, definitely not Erica Kane, they'd want to keep that a ABC trademark.

Eh...they cancelled so many soaps already. Why would they pay for two failing soaps?? When they have a dreadful one already....lol Where would they put the two soaps?? Days has the 12 pm time slot that AMC has. This is more people grasping at straws.

yeah what she said...lol

I doubt ABC would care about which characters are used, if selling them made a fast buck.

That's another thing: if AMC and OLTL were to be revived by NBC, imagine how many ANOTHER WORLD fans would crawl out of the old woodwork, pissed off their show didn't get a second chance by the network, while two shows from another network with equally abysmal ratings did.
