The Evolution

I hope people outside the US will be able to watch it online. I hate it when I get a message like: "the content is not available in your area."

LOL! People keep telling me that as if that's going to make me change my mind. I LOVE the Hubbards but they aren't the only soap characters I've ever had any attachment to. Angie and Jesse were off AMC for 20 years. I still watched.

Oh, she'll be back.

The Evolution

Awesome!

Me to!

But I am glad there will be no Nielsen Ratings CRAP.

Hey Maybe they might ask MCE to come back. I WOULD LOVE THAT!

"I have listened to GL for a long time but I have no interest in watching it on television no matter what actors will continue to be on the show or what the stories are. Therefore when GL ends on CBS radio, I will no longer follow the soap."

Haters make a left at the corner. That's where you'll find the dry cleaners.

Numerous questions remain unanswered: Will the soaps continue to air daily? When will the new site launch? Will the episodes be free to watch, or will it be a subscription service? One AMC actor, who spoke to In Depth on the condition of anonymity, seems skeptical on exactly how things will work out, even with Prospect Park promising to deliver the programs with the same quality and in the same length and format, per the agreement with ABC. "My personal thought, it won't be the same show," says the setsider. "There's no way they can afford to produce the show like we currently do and make any money from it online. Even Susan Lucci's (Erica) pay for one episode is more than an online show could generate. I'm guessing the whole thing would be low-budget and different. It's just too expensive!"

Prospect Park will essentially have to start from scratch, says the source, since the cast is all released from their contracts as of September, and aren't automatically going along with the licensing deal. "None of the actors' contracts will carry over, and it's not likely that many will sign on to do a Web series, which will no doubt be unable to pay the same salaries as ABC. It's great that someone is ready to invest in keeping serial programming alive on the Internet, but I don't think people should expect that the same show we know, as it exists today, will seamlessly carry over into this new format. Hopefully some exciting new stories will carry on. But let's not assume that we are 'saved.'"

I hate that everyone is making all these assumptions. We just have to wait who stays and who goes.

Sounds like Craputhers.

Ok Stop being a Debbie Downer. Be happy. Who knows maybe Alicia and Thorstan might want to stay

I'm trying to be, this is the same company who is part of Royal Pains on USA who hires alot of soap actor's and I think they'd want to be in New York, so if it moves back I hope TK & AM stay, but it won't be the same, so honestly I have no interest in watching and without LaLucci, it's Not All My Children

LMAO!!! Brilliant.

Considering the rumors for years of AMC constantly being overbudget, then I really wonder what AMC would be like with a competent producer.

AHH! Be positive. Everyone thought AMC/OLTL were not going to be saved. Look what happened. But what Agnes was saying made my day So glad that Agnes NEVER gave up hope and she was right!

Strong woman at such a old age! GO AGNES!

That's why I said that negative quote was Julie Craputhers, Ms.doesn't know how to budget a show.
