AMC and OLTL Canceled!

[dragonflies]

I don't ever remember AMC taking that much time off, are we sure it's not VI taking 3 weeks off?

[Becki]

Me too. Only I hated Caleb and loved Rafe. PC is my favorite soap of all time. It kept my attention, for the most part, throughout it's run.

I've often wondered if it were on the air in the last couple of years whether the whole "Twilight" craziness would have helped the ratings.

[DeeeDee]

Ew.

[Kylie]

I'm pretty sure, he said "we" as in the show having a 3 week break in July. Maybe he just meant him? It seemed like something they normally do. I don't know. Maybe I just understood it wrong.

The only one I loved from Port Charles was Brian Presley

:wub:

[Khan]

I've seen that theory tossed around on more than one occasion; however, I really doubt whether the "Twilight" craze would've had much of an impact on PORT CHARLES's ratings. And really, if I had been a PC fan, I don't know whether I would've wanted those fans "invading" my show just b/c of that connection. To me, it's almost like people watching GH just b/c James Franco is a recurring guest star on it.

[dragonflies]

I've seen it said that they normally take like a week off in July, but 3 weeks? Never, ever have heard of that ever.

[DeeeDee]

Jamal/Ali/Jack/Livvie.Yes.

Ali/Caleb/Livvie/Rafe. No.

[Becki]

I get that reaction on almost everyone I love from ever soap I've ever watched, so I'm used to it. :lol:

Very true.

[Ann_SS]

Agreed. I was heartbroken when Jamal and Ali were broken up so she could be tedious Rafe.

[DeeeDee]

What made it worse was how marginalized Jamal was in the aftermath & that Hershey/Gaskill had NO chemistry.

[Ann_SS]

Yep. Jamal basically disappeared. It was amazing how much I loved Jamal and Ali. They were such a wonderful couple. Their love for each other was seem genuine compared to other overly dramatic soap couples. I loved their arguments and their loving scenes. I'll never understand how anyone could prefer Ali with milk toast Rafe, but they had tons of fans on the soapcentral and ABC boards.

[Ann]

I liked Jamal and Alison the best, too.

[Vizion]

How ironic, today's Oprah Behind the Scenes is about the soap stars episode (partially)

[dragonflies]

Yep I disagree completely LOL. Rafe & Ali had mega chemistry, she had it with both Jamal and Rafe and I loved both pairings
