April 15, 201115 yr Member WOW there is a bigger supporting than i thought.. MSN posted an article about this (it's my homepage) and it got over 1,000 comments. Wouldn't have expected.
April 15, 201115 yr Member Having lost GL and ATWT as well as Beach and AW back in the day my deepest sympathies to the fans of AMC and OLTL. I don't know enough of the ABC situation, and I could never get into the ABC soaps when I sampled them but I understand the influences they have had over all of daytime history. Amazing in a few short years we went from nine soaps to four. Certainly daytime's darkest day and perhaps the final death knell for the entire genre. You just said EXACTLY what I've been feeling today, Soapfan.
April 15, 201115 yr Member April 14th Special Message: Early this afternoon, Erika shared with us the news that OLTL and AMC had been cancelled. While we will be interviewing her next week for the newsletter, she asked that we share the following with you now. "Please tell all our fans how deeply sorry I am to be losing this wonderful show that has so much heart and so much life. I will miss my work, my friends, my OLTL family so very much. I consider this to be a terrible loss to the television community and especially to the New York community." http://erikaslezak.com
April 15, 201115 yr Member These shows will get 500,000 max. The Biggest Loser is a WEEKLY PRIMETIME show, that is LOSING viewers. IF people dont want to watch it ONCE a week at night...WHY would they want to watch it FIVE DAYS A WEEK when they're not even home? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! THANK YOU! Nobody is going to watch these cheap talk shows. If people want to watch a COOKING show they'll watch the Food Network OR Rachael Ray. I pray these shows bomb. By the way, your banner is amazing, makes me shed a tear.

By the way, your banner is amazing, makes me shed a tear. I agree. The Food Network is what people will watch. And Rachael rae, like you said. Thanks for the banner love. I felt I owed it to my two old friends.
April 15, 201115 yr Member The main issue is...Television itself (Network TV at least) is running out of ideas. Wooo Hooo Hoooo...It's all been done. (Yes, shoot me. I'm a BNL fan)
April 15, 201115 yr Member Like I was saying Soap Dishes The Cook Book is sure to become a collectors edition. We had know idea how the landscape would change so much in Daytime but are very glad we got 35 of the top stars together in one book to benefit a charity we all believe strongly in. I just got off the phone with Derk and it seems with the news of OLTL & All My Children being canceled that the books are going faster than ever. It seems people know since this is our last Re-print of the book they want to make sure they have a piece of Daytime History Forever. We just got news that the books are done printing and will be shipped no later than the 20th to anyone who ordered a book. Of course in time for Mothers Day. I don't want to sound like we keep saying the same thing but the coupon and the cancellation of the shows is causing quite an ordering frenzy so if you want to make sure you get one click the link below and get copies reserved for you and your friends. http://twitter.com/#!/1steveburton
April 15, 201115 yr Member EWWWWWW! AMC is going to end with Ryan and Greenlee's wedding. I predicted it a few weeks ago and with AMC ending in just a few short months I am POSITIVE that this is how it will go down.
April 15, 201115 yr Member I have to agree that the replacement programming isn't going to do much for the network. If ratings for scripted programming aren't good, other types of programming is going to be even worse. I wouldn't be surprised if ABC ended up like FOX and CW, allocating most of their daytime hours to syndication and local programming.

Yep it sure will, and if anyone but LB and AN were writing the end, Ryan would get the last scene not Erica
April 15, 201115 yr Member I'm still speechless... I really don't know what to say. Big hug to all the AMC & OLTL fans, actors and people behind the scenes.
