Members alexisfan07 Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Is it possible the gowns are for the cast photo? That's what I'm thinking. I wonder if the cast photo was formal or not, though. RPG made it sound super informal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Oh wow it looks like SL has turned down PP's offer: Meanwhile, I hear that, after a two-week deliberation, All My Children star Susan Lucci has turned down Prospect Park’s offer to stay on the show. The offer was for a salary identical to what Lucci currently makes at ABC but I’ve learned that she tried to gouge the producers for more money while also asking to work fewer hours and get a commitment for a primetime series. In light of that development, I hear that Prospect Park may reevaluate its short-term strategy for the two soaps and put its muscle behind the higher-rated OLTL, while moving AMC to the back burner. Prospect Park’s original plan was to re-launch both OLTL and AMC online in the first quarter of 2012. Lucci made headlines over the weekend with a leaked new epilogue to her book All My Life, in which she blasts ABC Daytime president Brian Frons over the series’ cancellatio http://www.deadline.com/hollywood/ PLUS: One Life to Live‘s Michael Easton, Ted King, Kassie DePaiva and cast’s doyen Erika Slezak have become the first actors to sign deals with Prospect Park, the company which in June acquired the rights to continue to produce soon-to-be-cancelled ABC daytime dramas One Life To Live and All My Children online. Prospect Park just announcement the pacts with the four actors. (See statement below) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Michael Easton really? Why all this focus on OLTL and not AMC? I think AMC is the guinea pig and they don't care as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 LOL and some of us were saying we wouldn't be surprised if AMC never made it online, hmmm looks like we weren't too far off base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Thank you for sharing that, pretty significant developments. I have no doubt that they will work out something with Susan, in some sort of capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members baller Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Wow. Did Susan really just add to her book about blasting Frons for killing AMC and then demand all that? Pot meet kettle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Seriously. I have no attachment to either show really but more to AMC but if they think they need Michael Easton and Ted King more power to them. I find both incredibly dull and unenergetic.

Members dragonflies Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Maybe she'll be up to guesting. The 5 days a week 52 weeks a year stuff has to GO! They need to make it seasonal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 I honestly see them canceling plans to save AMC. I really do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 I think given OLTL's extra time, PP is probably much more involved in what's going on there. They have more influence on that show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 I am so happy that Erika Slezak and Kassie DePavia are staying. Michael Easton Ted King I thought he would get the Ross treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OLTL_fan Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Easton? Damn I was hoping we would be able to get rid of him. Ted King is boring. Not surprised about Kassie and thrilled Erika Slezak is joining!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 I keep hearing how PP is more concerned about story than actors and not catering to the big names. Well signing on MIchael Easton really? They think he and Ted King are critical? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 Soaps In Depth ABC I'd bet that we either wind up with A) only #OLTL; or B ) a sort of mash-up of the two shows. Which could totally work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted September 6, 2011 Members Share Posted September 6, 2011 No it wouldn't work, it'd be an epic flop LOL so basically we're getting a cliffhanger type ending for NOTHING? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
