Members dragonflies Posted August 2, 2011 Members Share Posted August 2, 2011 I know nothing was said at the FCW, they told people not to ask, cause they didn't know much of anything, so I really doubt Jill told anyone that(not calling you a liar Ron) +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted August 2, 2011 Members Share Posted August 2, 2011 Robin didn't flat out say she wouldn't do it. She assumed she wouldn't be approached. That's what I took from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted August 2, 2011 Members Share Posted August 2, 2011 LOL! Not only that but everything it seems. I'm with you, I hope something will be announced soon too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 Exactly. I think some people want these to fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 $10 a month is a lot going from free and if you want to see both shows, it is even more. As someone who likes to keep favorite episodes for posterity (been going through tapes from the 90s with OLTL)...that is what annoys me the most. I hate the idea of paying for something and then not being able to save it if I chose to (like a major event like a wedding or a funeral). Seriously this will just make people bootleg more rather than less. HBO sells subscriptions for their service, but also sells DVDs for their original shows. I hope Prospect Park will do the same, that way people can archive like me (or gift the show to friends or relatives that don't have net access.) Of course if they do over 250 a year of each show, they need to figure out something else. Wish they could do in the same fashion then as Ebooks, where you buy and can keep forever.

Members marceline Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 I think people are jumping to conclusions. All we have is some second hand report that Jill Larson may have been overheard saying something at the fan event. Given how consistently wrong the soap press has been in its official reports, this bit of hearsay is even less reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 I would be willing to pay $10 total a month for AMC and OLTL. That's my limit and only because I want to see this genre live on. The timing of all this is really unfortunate because we are a couple of years short of a true transition to net based programming (imo) and in the middle of a huge economic downturn.

Members R Sinclair Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 NO SPECULATING ALLOWED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Max Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 That's great news that OLTL is staying in New York. I thought there was a 95% chance it would move to LA. Do we know for sure that Prospect Park is going to charge in order to view AMC and OLTL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 No official word yet, I think folks are just... *speculating*. I don't think we even know in what format the shows will be available, and I'm snickering and shaking my head picturing my eightysomething grandparents trying to get comfortable in computer chairs straining their eyes to watch AMC on a computer screen. Wow, so not gonna happen. There go two 40+ year fans. I'm not bitching mind you, just stating the obvious that some will find that the transition to computer just won't jive with their lifestyles. I cannot imagine my grandparents watching AMC not in the living room while eating lunch but at separate times on their own computers, nor setting up a computer in the family room just to connect to the big TV for AMC. That's why I'm hoping for something via cable/Roku-type device as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hmmmmm...Katie Couric is on the View....lol....talking about her new show..and she is co hosting. Bye..bye GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 That's not new. It's pretty much assumed GH is gone by next fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 They even talked about when it would debut....lol....I guess giving GH brass fair warning...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted August 3, 2011 Members Share Posted August 3, 2011 I think most everyone knows GH is gone by fall. I have a feeling people like Phelps already knows but GH gets the advantage of AMC and OLTL going online first which is a blessing to be honest. GH and Days also seem to have the most online fans so maybe ABC figured they'd have a better chance of succeeding over the other 2 who knows. AS for Katie Couric I actually like her. She didn't work on CBS news because she's not IMO a hard news "journalist". But I thought she came across completely forced and out of place on THe View, very different from her days on the Today show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
