Oh wow, never thought about that. We could get a flood of news over the next few days then. And maybe people will speak out, unless they signed something not to until the final episode airs. I wanna see someone unload all over Frons' and Co's arses. And not in the P.C Susan Lucci way. I want nasty slurs, insinuations and outright insults!

Carruthers seems to be projecting an awfully chipper demeanor. Dear god, PP didn't do the unthinkable and keep her ass on did they?

Yes they did hire her. When I heard she was going my excitement diminished a lot but I hope beyond hope its transitional and they end up dumping her.

And IA I want to see someone unload. Something inside me tells me MEK would love to but he will be classy and clam up. Thorston Kaye I bet might say more than he already has. I don't think he has any love for ABC or any of the rest and once this is done essentially so is he.

ABC still owns the shows. PP is licensing them.

Damn! Its hard to keep up with all the PP news when that thread grows by pages per day. Seems to me I did see that in passing, but I guess for my sanity I blocked it out. MEK I think has been "done" with it all for a while now and has stayed on for 1) financial security and 2) he is an honorable guy who feels the need to keep Tad going for the fans and the show. I sincerely doubt he goes to PP though, although he will be staying LA based so who knows? I don't expect him to speak out, he's too classy. Thorsten would be a good candidate as you mention.... I think RPG is a possibility.

Thank you! Yes, that helps. Clearly the liquor stores at ABC Daytime are as open as Julie's access to All My Children's finances have been over the years. PP better cut up the credit cards. They'll be downgraded faster than you can say Barack Obama.

THey will be produced by PP so I assume the producer is change to PP come online. Using Days as an example which is not owned by NBC or produced by NBC, their credits all list Corday productions and Sony as producers. But they also own the shows too so I assume ABC's name will remain in the credits in some fashion, but they will no longer be running the shows.Hopefully all the Fronsonian pets leave.

IA with this.

Yeah, October seems likely. OLTL will be wrapping production for ABC in November, and continuing immediately with PP. October is when, IMO, the AMC studios would have to be lit up again to start production for a January launch, although they could technically start taping in November.

October feels like the best timeframe, though I'm hoping we hear more (and I'm sure we will get tidbits) throughout September. We need to know who's continuing with AMC and what their storyline plans are, who will be new, if they are bringing any familiar faces back. And for OLTL we need to know who the new EP and HW will be plus the cast that's remaining, though rumors have led us to believe most of the cast will continue, whether true or not (I see more of them staying than AMC's cast). Though I'm sure Michael Easton will bolt. Bree Williamson is out. Rumors persist that Florencia Lozano is out but I read somewhere that she knew someone at Prospect Park and was interested in continuing. I'm almost certain Kassie DePaiva will continue. I think Erika Slezak will. HBS and RW are the iffy ones. Hillary B. Smith does websoaps so I don't see why she wouldn't stay. RW could probably go either way. I'd like to see JVD stick around, and I have a feeling he might. Let's be honest, for the veterans, there aren't a lot of soaps on television who are angling to get them. A paycheck is a paycheck ... though some might just want to retire and do episodic and stage work. I think OLTL staying in NYC will help them keep some stars that might have otherwise bolted.
