AMC and OLTL Canceled!

[R Sinclair]

John: I don't want you to blow it.

Todd: I'm not gonna blow anything.

Not sure if this was posted, Stephanie Gatschet has answered questions and they're posted on her website:

I like this:

Jennifer: Which AMC character, besides Madison, will you miss the most?

Stephanie: I think we'll all miss seeing the iconic Susan Lucci on our screens as Erica Kane.

Oh my god that dress...

As Don Henley & Patty Smythe once said (or sang), sometimes love just ain't enough.

[Khan]

Yup.

It's pretty sad when "Venice" and "The Bay" look better by comparison.

Cue the '80's power ballad/McManning love theme. ;-)

So true.

I didn't know where else to post this but thought this was cool!

That's the only part of this that really pisses me off. For all of AMC's flaws, the main reason I hate seeing people say AMC deserved cancellation is because I don't think AMC deserved to be canceled as much as S&K's writing. The AMC that got canceled wasn't AMC or any variation of it. It was boring, half-assed garbage vomited up by proven hacks. I can't think of a writing regime that was less in tune with what AMC was. (No, not even Pratt.)

...Should not be worn by senior citizens.

[Khan]

PLUS. ONE. ;-P

I've said it before, I'll say it again: this isn't like when GUIDING LIGHT was canceled, and everyone was just relieved it was over. There was still "life" left in AMC (and in OLTL, too!). All it needed was time, decent writing, and a network executive w/o an itchy trigger finger. But if telling yourself that you did everything you could to save these shows gets you through the night, Mr. Frons, then go right ahead.

[Kylie]

Why not? She looked great in it. I don't see why she shouldn't wear it if she still can. I can't pull off a dress like that and she has 40 years on me.

[Khan]

Well, that's what happens when you have an inexperienced EP w/ no sense of how to run a telethon let alone a legendary TV series in charge. I'm not saying a more qualified EP would have been more successful w/ the experiment, but I do think even a Paul Rauch would have done as you've suggested, AMS, and brought over someone who's worked under similar conditions on an overseas soap to guide his team on how it could be done w/o making everyone look like utter fools.

I swear, it's almost as if TeleNext forced the Peapack Experiment on Ellen Wheeler in order to get their shits and giggles, knowing full well she'd flop.

[quartermainefan]

I thought she looked really good. Yes, there is a ton of make up on, but she has the body to pull it off, and Jay Leno seemed sincerely impressed.

[Marley]

I love that the AMC actors got drunk and had an impromptu wake/celebration. The cast and crew seems to get along great.

I am surprised Frons let them take the day off.
