I like how upbeat he is but he really didn't say anything that hasn't been said. Susan Lucci never said no and I don't think Budig did. I am sure most are open to it if the opportunity was right for both sides. But are there really fans clamoring for Ryan and Greenlee as a couple? Maybe more than I think.

Cameron seems like such a sweet guy that it's impossible for me to hate on him. I agree with him about the jumping the show ahiead 5 years. Soras all them damn kids and get rid of the dead weight.

The only people I see clamoring for Ryan and Greenlee are people with a script in their hand asking questions. I don't even think Cameron is clamoring for Ryan and Greenlee.

I don't even hate Rylee, I don't think they are the worst couple that ever existed but in my ideal NuAMC there would be no albatross couples dragging down the show.

LOL.

"Many fans are huge Greenlee and Ryan fans."

I won't deny they probably have some fans, but even after all this time - just no.

Budig didn't say no either in her last interview on the topic of being contacted by Prospect Park, for sure.

If AMC ever makes it back, I really think they should do the jump forward. Same characters or not, AMC needs some sort of reboot like that.

Tomlin is not a good fit really, but it could be much worse, depending on his creative influence. Him and Whitesell (who only really can do camp) is a bad fit... Interesting, LB did write with Whitesell and worked with Tomlin on OLTL and it is not the style I'd want for AMC, to put it lightly, but...

Agnes Nixon seems devoted to having some influence at least at first. I hope that remains true. I guess it's good that they ARE discussing an EP?

And that says it all... And I'm going to try to remain cool and join Marceline on the roof from now on about this.

I admit that I don't have a strong opinion of Tomlin. Didn't he scab/fi-core for OLTL during the strike?

ITA that a time jump would be for the best. It allows for any necessary recasting, sorasing and elimination of characters. It also provides a couple of years that the writers can always go back to for story without spitting in the audience's faces.

Regardless, PP needs to hire somebody soon if they want that person to start writing a bible for the three actors they already have signed (let's not even discuss breakdown and scriptwriters) so the production staff (whoever they may be) can get the show done in time to promote in December (It's not like the holidays will be taking up anyone's attention) and broadcast in January on the website that isn't currently equipped to do anything other than collect contact info for a mailing list, that to the best of my knowledge hasn't been used to share any information,

Yes, he did fill in at OLTL during the strike.

I would rather see Tomlin as a writer again, as I thought he did some good work at AW, long ago. As for him as an EP, I thought his OLTL became a disaster, but then he inherited a disaster, so I don't know. I don't like fake camp. Looking back I do think that brand of camp was better than what we have now, where someone talking to a beaver is apparently the height of wit.

    • Keith D Robinson is 49. Maurice Johnson is 46.
    • I hope they give him more to do than just be a prick as you say. I can see how viewers would like him because the actor is so charming despite the character being such an absolute pain.    I would agree. And there was also the undercurrent of Raven and Draper sort of flirting with each other. The actors play that attraction and it worked so well in that scene. 
    • Daniel Cosgrove is PERFECT as the sleezy politician. This might be my favorite role of his. All of these people keeping Kristina’s secret is so annoying. I really want her to pay.
    • What did happen to Beth between 86 and 89? Did she have amnesia?
    • I actually thought he came off as younger. It's so hard to buy Martin as Nicole and Ted's son unless they had him when they were 12.
    • @chrisml Isn't remarkable that, on a soap whose brand is built on twists and mysteries, that Raven's last straw was as simple as Logan saying that she was incapable of loving Jamey.  In the episode when Raven exit's and leaves Jamey with April, I can remember feeling the subtext that Raven is also trying to talk herself into leaving him behind.  There's so much in that little scene.  She's trying to stick it to Logan for saying she was a bad mother.  She's both granting April's wish, and damning her with the old adage of being careful what she wished for.  And, she's hinting to Draper that she's going to boff his father. It remains my favorite scene, and it still blows my mind that was not the end of that episode.  
    • Oh lord not Drew just figured out it was both Nina and Portia that set him up. Willow WILL never leave this man. Ric taking the case purely just to spite Sonny is [!@#$%^&*].ing hilarious.
    • And in addition to Patti being de-aged, she was no longer a nurse, divorced from Len(fair enough) and her two children were not seen and barely mentioned. So basically she was a totally new character. For newer viewers it didn't matter but any loyal viewers would have been wondering about all the changes with Patti. Sarah Whiting always puzzled me. The writers finally decide to acknowledge Jo's family and do so by making up a never mentioned adopted teen. Why not just bring in Tracey, Jo's actual grandaughter? As for Liza, perhaps it would have been wise to rest the character when Sherry left. They were big shoes to fill and her Liza was so identified with Travis. I don't recall what was going on in the story at that time but if they knew Sherry was leaving, write it so Liza would leave town to care for an ailing Janet and take a breather with the character for a few months.
    • Ahh interesting. Yeah, that's sad for A-M. I will say, he and Nick became fast friends when Susan started working at Spaulding. A-M/Lucy/Nick/Susan had a lot of double dates in those 7 months. A-M was Nick's best man at his wedding to Susan, which now that I think about it, is odd that he wouldn't have considered Fletcher. I remember those two were so close at the paper, and even living together with Ben. Once Tangie left SF, Nick left the paper, and Fletcher/Holly were rarely seen... so I guess they felt that friendship wasn't shown often enough anymore (which again, lazy writing).
    • I honestly don't think Alan-Michael ever really had a friend on the show. Maybe Cameron or Samantha, but otherwise... *Cameron was a high school friend who ended up dating teenage Dinah after she broke up with A-M. Samantha is Phillip's biological sister, who A-M treated like a sister. Interestingly enough, they were born the same week on the show in 1981, but A-M ends up being older than her when she returns to town in '89.
