Members dragonflies Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 I was thinking about this the other day, what that ending would have been like. Damn I wish somehow we could still get that ending, I know it won't happen, but one can dream LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 Not surprised at all. As much as I want to blame PP for the finale, I blame Agnes Nixon. PP could make all the requests they wanted but they had no control over the show at the time. Moreover, the final episodes had already been written and she could have told them there was no time or money (the latter of which was probably true!) for re-writes. They wouldn't have known any better. I certainly hope that those 5 AMC actors who were reportedly working with PP to make a deal with AFTRA (and, according to SOD a few weeks ago, were disappointed at how low a priority the AFTRA negotiations seemed to be for PP) have stopped their efforts. Let the OLTL actors do the work. Oh and I can't wait to see what Lindsay "It's happening....and SOON" Hartley says now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 Same here. I feel bad for fans who really wanted it, but I've let go. I can't say I miss it that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 Didn't Josh film some other scenes we never saw? I think people like Babe, Gillian, Leo would have been alive. Not that I would want a plethera of back from the dead stories but for fans of those people it could have been a satisfying ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 LOL! I can hear contacts being deleted from cellphones as we speak. *delete* "Prospect who?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 I refuse to get carried away until we know for damn sure, but this is some doo-doo if true. Even if they manage to wrangle up the cast for a 2 hour cliffhanger resolving movie, and subsequent movies a la Dallas, it wouldn't really make up for this... who feels like saying goodbye all over again? And again? And again? Fans have every right to be upset if this is true, a HUGE pick-me-up, and an even huger let-me-down. If AMC and OLTL are both no go, I wonder if they'll retain FV to oversea their initial plans for new serialized dramas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted November 10, 2011 Webmaster Share Posted November 10, 2011 Honestly, this piece doesn't seem to be based on much more than guess work. Additionally, Prospect Park confirmed Darnell Williams, so SID and/or SOD still saying only Hartley and Mathison are signed for AMC 2.0 (if it happens, of course ) need to get off their butts and get in touch with the right people and confirm things. You don't know how happy I was that we confirmed Darnell with Prospect Park while everyone else continued basing that report on Lindsay's tweet.

Members dragonflies Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 Why did Darnell seem surprised, cause I remember reading he was surprised, cause he didn't know it had been confirmed he had signed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 Breaking: David A. Gregory (Ford) will not be joining Prospect Park's #OLTL. (via Gregory's facebook) Thats why u shouldnt run story til u have all the facts or if its a rumor say its a rumor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 LOL that's all we've been getting anymore, nothing confirmed one way or the other. Someone shouldn't have to say rumor. Sorry Errol, there's so much that fits with what Richard says, the actors about the AFTRA stuff, and the lack of AMC actors being signed and so on. I think there's alot of truth to it. and yes I'm skeptical, and I don't give a damn what anyone says about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 Well I think we already knew from the WSJ article that PP was having issues getting funding. So AMC being dropped is not a stretch based on that. I think most of us assumed AMC was a longshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 I remember how quick some were to discount that LOL. No it's not a stretch at all. I just hope OLTL fans at least get some kind of closure just in case OLTL online doesn't happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 10, 2011 Members Share Posted November 10, 2011 At this point I would keep AMC over OLTL, mostly because I have no idea how to continue OLTL at this point. Of the cast they hired the only ones I can see viable story for are Natalie and Viki, and they are tied down to loser characters. Tea and Blair are both so heavily tied to Todd, and I doubt TSJ or RH will be coming to PP. AMC has less actors signed on but also has more room to grow, and also doesn't have a writer who fetishizes rape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
