Eric, I apoligize for putting words in your mouth when I referred to "your beloved ABC soaps." However, all of my other complaints never mentioned you by name (and were not even in reference to you). The best lesson out of this is that it is best for both of us not to make any assumptions about the other.

I said before that I thought part of PP's funding was a government grant that was available to persons/companies invested in internet programming or whatever you want to call it. If PP moves away from the online end of it, I would suspect the grant is no longer viable.

I'm surprised LMAD still can't get above GL - I wonder what the difference in production costs was between the Peapack GL and LMAD, considering LMAD gives away cars and such.

I think that AMC/OLTL may have more of a chance on cable since the cable networks won't have to pay to produce them, and unlike some other ventures, like repeats of soaps, these will be new episodes. It depends on how patient the network is. Some of the cable networks, like Lifetime, have less and less reason to expect big ratings for their shows.

I'm not saying whether or ABC was wrong to cancel its soaps or not, but I can say that these ratings your presenting mean nothing, because they're household ratings. They don't make money for the networks, because advertisers don't pay for them. They pay for the women 18-49 demo in daytime, and in that demo, virtually all the current soaps do better than the other programming on network daytime. In fact, only The View really falls among them in the rankings for that demo.
