May 26, 201114 yr Member Susan I'm shocked you would give people false hope. Ugh I think the problem is she's gullible enough to think Agnes and whomever else is fighting can do anything about it.
May 26, 201114 yr Member That's the worst thing she could've possibly said. Susan, honey, didn't you learn from before? Haha, well they then asked her about the rumors and how she proclaimed they were absolutely false... only to be surprised that they weren't. She genuinely believe those were rumors - she went into detail about that on The Talk. But yeah, she was asked point blank how the show will end, and she said Agnes and LB are back, but it's still up in the air as to whether it will really end... she said "maybe not on ABC". But then she did say later at the end of the interview that tons of fan favorites are coming back.
May 26, 201114 yr Member Even if it was true - and I have NO belief that it is - getting the crazies worked up wouldn't help any pending deal any way. It gives the AMC fans false hope and will make the OLTL fans livid. Edited May 26, 201114 yr by marceline
May 26, 201114 yr Member Maybe Agnes can somehow get ownership of the show(s) and broadcast it/them on her website? Edited May 26, 201114 yr by alexisfan07
May 26, 201114 yr Member Didn't Agnes already say they weren't ending it like a final show in the event it would get picked up but to also not close the book but leave people with the impression that Pine Valley was still alive and moving on, not really leaving plotlines hanging but leaving viewers with the feeling that life goes on. I know I am kind of rambling but I thought that was sort of the sense I got. Edited May 26, 201114 yr by JaneAusten

I know I am kind of rambling but I thought that was sort of the sense I got. Yeah she did, I think the issue is with Lucci being seemingly cautiously optimistic about a pick-up.
May 26, 201114 yr Member Yeah she did, I think the issue is with Lucci being seemingly cautiously optimistic about a pick-up. I think that's just a brave face, and also some respect for Agnes.
May 26, 201114 yr Member Yeah she did, I think the issue is with Lucci being seemingly cautiously optimistic about a pick-up. I don't think there is a thing wrong with giving people hope. As a former AMC fan I don't see a chance in hell as anyone picking it up. OLTL who knows. But then JMO of course.
May 26, 201114 yr Member I don't think hope should be given, cause it's going to bite her in the ass big time. There isn't hope of the show being picked up, and I can't believe she'd give people false hope
May 26, 201114 yr Member It would probably hurt her career more if she said "It's over." She's not saying the show will stay around, she's saying it's a possibility. It's a nice way of saying it probably won't happen, but you never know.
May 26, 201114 yr Member I don't think hope should be given, cause it's going to bite her in the ass big time. There isn't hope of the show being picked up, and I can't believe she'd give people false hope Sometimes I think these actors know less than the fans do. Maybe some of the original rumors circulating proven false have not reached the actors. Who knows. I never believed she would be the type to lead people on.
May 26, 201114 yr Member Maybe Agnes can somehow get ownership of the show(s) and broadcast it/them on her website? How expensive would that be though? I think the best case scenario at this point would be DirectTV picking them up and letting Agnes air them on her website the same day. But I don't think realistically it's going to happen.
May 26, 201114 yr Member I don't think ABC will ever turn AMC and OLTL loose. Seriously, I think Agnes would have an easier time launching her own new bilingual novella. If I was a kind, caring ABC Daytime exec, I would throw my loyal soap viewers a bone by commissioning self-contained AMC/OLTL webisodes on ABC.com once every couple of months, advertising them during daytime commercial breaks.
May 27, 201114 yr Member I just watched the interview. First of all, La Lucci looks the bomb. I don't think I've ever seen her look so good. Maybe, it was the studio lighting, but she looked flawless. Secondly, I don't think she was giving false hope. She acknowledged that the show was ending it's run on ABC but that the fans were "on fire" and were wanting to see the show continue elsewhere. That audience loves her! Standing O twice!

May 27, 201114 yr Member Okay so wait a minute. Did SuLu call out Jamey on that show or something? His tweets, which I read for comical purposes: "And then you got Lucci on The Talk saying I'm a blogger with an agenda again. Sigh. I love Lucci..." "It is insane to me that the face of daytime, when asked about her show dying would mention a "blogger with an agenda"." "I've caught major hell for telling the truth, yet Susan wants to go at me, Fight the real enema, er enemy, Brian Frons." "They need to look in the mirror. Own some of the blame for not being more like Kim Zimmer, Robin Strasser and others." "Instead of cooing and tossing her hair, Susan Lucci should have been saying the stories on AMC were b.s. during Pratt." I must have missed it when Robin Strasser and Kim Zimmer actually made changes happen at their soaps This object needs an intense psychological evaluation. Brazen and topical. Boy I fn tell ya. Bitches these days. Edited May 27, 201114 yr by All My Shadows
