They Need a New EP. Id Nominate Gary Tomlin

If I were a betting man, I'd say we won't be seeing AMC or OLTL 'til springtime 2012.

Nah, they may as well just kill both shows if that happens. Jan could be premature (for both shows, frankly), but...

For AMC? It's not unlikely given his ties with FV, but he wouldn't be even close to my list--he's not a good match, not that that matters it seems.

Gary is the EP that First Got OLTL Under Budget & Is The EP That Got Days Its Two Year Renewal

I like Gary Tomlin but there is more to being an EP than budget and I really dont think his style fits with AMC. Wendy Riche would be my choice.

Ehhhh, I'm not so sure. His work at OLTL and Days left a lot to be desired, but he was terrific at Sunset Beach and as a director at AMC. Maybe if he sticks to directing I could see it.

If they were smart they would sign on Lucci and give her another show or involvement in one. Arent they also doing reality shows? Why not some

sort of makeover show with Lucci hosting. She is the queen of managing you image for success

I'm pretty sure when she signs with PP it will be a multiplatform deal with her doing the soap and a primetime show they have in development.

JHC is not as useless as some think. Wasn't she the person who spearheaded the 6 months on 6 months off model to keep Port Charles afloat? Back then that was very forward thinking. I think if given the opportunity to run the show without being micromanaged JHC will do well. The cast loved her and with FV I think that will do wonders for her. I am being optimistic.

No That Was Barbara Bloom

This just looks to me like things got a little too quiet so Jamey decided to stir up some [!@#$%^&*].

I agree. I dont buy what Jamey is shoveling. Not entirely.

I don't think this is all Jamey, Some of it came from SOD. It doesn't necessarily make it more accurate.

As much as some folks don't like JHC, the actors appear to adore her. Having her on board might, like Lucci, spurn more cast signings. I also for some reason did not know Darnell was willing to get on board. It was be interesting to see him without Angie. I don't think it's good for PP to put all of their eggs in Lucci's backet, though. AMC can survive without her. It might be hard at first, but it can.

The show can go on without Lucci. The show didnt survive with her on the show. It was cancelled. For me as a viewer the internet is a totally different animal. How many people are really going to watch online?? How many TV viewers will even know about it going online?? ABC hasnt mentioned it to this point. Well the viewers be there in January? So many questions...stay tuned as the AMC turns.....lol

jams as a hater to Z/K/AM/TK (or lover of RB) is a little like the poster formerly known as ZF as a lover to Z/K/AM/TK (or hater of anybody that is put as a threat to them). Both on the extreme side. No offense as I think we all have a nudge of the extreme in our systems.

Yes my Zen hate is extreme!! I'll freely admit it!! BUT.. The brunt of it was brought on by their fans, born from their insane antics! But unlike them that as you pointed out will turn on any and all threats to their couple. I LOVE all of AMC ...I won't bash the writers ...I won't demand I get my way..I don't hate characters solely b/c they interfere with my favs...yes even if it's Greenlee (that the character is a threat to!)

And no offense taken ...yes most of us have that extreme side. I can appreciate being exterem in the love or hate of a character. It is usually what can make these boards fun or terribly annoying! (usually fun)

Jams are you still at it? What'd they kick you off of SOC again?

hehe...no I'm not banned from there, But 'Zendall Fan' can you say the same? I see, just as you do on SOC, you have the same problem here....directing your comments at the poster...as opposed to the topic. BTW.. Are you still at discussing me on various social networks ....needing/requesting back-up and plotting with others on what to say to me?

You must be obsessed and/or in love with me. Awww wub you too! BTW I think we could be a match made in cyber heaven if only we agreed on Zen/AM/TK....we seem to agree on MANY other things!

I am sure TK is a decent guy but I haven't liked one character hes played going back to his days on PC. They are always the same, dark, brooding, and overwhelming.

Exactly! He plays the same character.... with different names and hair.....he's said the same thing himself. ONE NOTE if ever there was one! Like a overwhelming suffocating black cloud of doom and gloom.

I never understood the appeal of Thorsten Kaye as an actor. For me, he's Walt Willey with an accent.

LMAO!! So true but ..... What a slam on poor WW! Hey... At least WW can put a bit of inflection in his voice and his words are not mumbled grumbled jumbled. He can also look at others without it seeming like he HATES them! For TK/Zach he looks at everybody like they're crap on his shoes! Especially "muh wife" Kendall.

We're back to the "It's not the characters -- it's the bad writing" defense? You've called every single head writer that's written for Zendall (or any soap for that matter) "hack(s)." You scream it from the rooftops two minutes into their tenures,

It's way too convenient to say Zendall are horrid because they've been written by SEVEN HACKS IN A ROW! It has nothing at all to do with their being largely unlikeable characters.

Every writer who's written Zendall is a hack, yet Zendall is a fantabulous supercouple, one of AMC's best and most-loved of all time (of ALL TIME, yall!).

I don't get it. I never did.

THANK YOU! (Both) Oh & don't worry....you won't ever get it, b/c it doesn't make a lick of sense!

Gillian's return being 7-10 seconds long was kind of wrong as you literally could blink and miss it, but the scene itself was really, really good IMO. Very effective (although it could have been stretched out a minute).

Oh I so Agree!! I still think there was going to be more Gillian but was rewritten due to PP picking up the shows. But even that brief scene packed a punched!

I saw Greenlee from her inception and I thought she was cold, bitter, and asexual from the start, devoid of a purpose, grafted onto various characters who had to listen to her latest whines and tirades, only warmed up when a handful of her leading men managed to make her look like more than a dead fish washed up on shore.

Any "good" Greenlee story involves a better leading man propping her up. I can't remember a time she did anything to support any other character or make them shine.

LOL Well that's your right ….but you're wrong....JK! RB/ Greenlee was well received on her own. She predated Leo/JD and was liked and given a full contract before her relationship with him. RB is talented and did not need a pairing to make her liked. Her fiery spunk did that.

IF PP thinks SL will take a 4 yr deal with no outs, they are truly freaking insane

Some OLTL actors got one year deals, why are they offering AMC actors 4 year deals with no outs? Hmmm

I'm hoping that is just BS …..it doesn't add up that they want the AMC actors to sign on for 4 years. If so, then yes, you're correct ..they are insane!

Jamey's still saying on twitter that one AMC actor refuses to do AMC online cause of the EP. LOL nothing has even been confirmed about the EP

Maybe they know more than we do?? And am I mistaken or wasn't there a blurb that JHC was going on as EP..around the same time that it was said LB & AN were going on as writers?? Or....Did I imagine that?
