Members Marley Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 Because it's unprofessional & bad business. Put out a press release, leak it to TV guide or EW. Having LH announce on twitter to her 6000+ followers is dumb & slightly disrespectful to Darnell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 Lindsay Hartley, the official "All My Children: 2.0" spokesperson. But, up to 3! They said a very popular leading lady, so even with the stretching of the imagination she was really neither on AMC. But congrats to Vasi. She's truly s.t.u.n.n.i.n.g. to look at and still on the young enough side, so not surprising she's getting work. Now, Budig's role in Bad Parents doesn't seem lead, nor does a role in an independent film stand out as a major film role. But I could see this being a case of SOD over-stating something and being a little behind the times - as she does fit the role of leading lady and very popular (although one could argue that last one if they wanted to). True. It typically comes down to age and look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 Yeah it does matter, it's very unprofessional on the part of PP and still makes it feel like they don't what the hell they're doing. Are they paying Lindsay for this? GEEZ. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 You mean the mystery of one gun shot ringing out with miracle worker David Hayward still in town? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 Once again just makes me think that LH and CM were leaked and maybe PP said yeah tweet that because people will get that faster than a PR we can send out. Not saying they wont but Im sure they realize Twitter is faster way to notify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 Cool. I'm inclined to agree. Actors should be allowed to announce their own business. It reminds me of when Strasser told everyone Gina T. was leaving the show. Of course DW has no social media outlet as far as I can see so maybe he's just living happily in his Luddite paradise and letting LH tell his news.

Members John Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 I Mean its not the first time a show goes radio silent because of a cliffhanger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 My point simply is that wasn't much of a cliffhanger - one shot, David's powers. Definitely not something that would on any level require a blanket of secrecy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 John do you work for PP Public relations firm. I think everyone here is happy about PP picking up these shows but that doesn't mean we have to drink every glass of koolaid they are serving. Twitter is available to LH but corporations also use twitter and facebook and social networking to reach out to consumers. Under ABC AMC, and OLTL have facebook pages. Y&R has one, Days has one, Days has a twitter account. They could leverage these or how about creating a PP twitter account or facebook page. THey should be the ones announcing this stuff not the actors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 I shudder to think of what damage will furthur be done to Jangie without Debbi. Will they kiill off Angie, presumed dead or something? I can live with that. JaneAusten PP has a twitter page, they could be on their doing some PR......

Members Marley Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 If that is the case then I'm really about the get worried because who cares about fast? Wait one hour to put out a decent press release that reaches a heck of a lot more people and media outlets than having Lindsay Hartley tweeting it. I hope for PP's sake that LH jumped the gun and announced it without consulting with them first. Angela, As for DV's popularity and status as a leading lady, I definitely agree with you but I could chalk that up as well to SOD exaggerating the importance of a character and actress.

Members John Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 They Could Recast. Angie could go see Cassie Go work In Africa Doctors w/o borders Go on a tour about her blindness Killing her off would be dumb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 I can't. In Africa or South America on a project helping people who've suffered from the same virus that caused her blindness is the only way to go until we get Debbi back.

Members John Posted October 21, 2011 Members Share Posted October 21, 2011 Sorry but I dont need an official press release for every move PP makes. Do Days, GH etc give PR's everytime someone joins the cast. NOPE its usually leaked to a another party who posts it, wheter it be a mag or soap blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
