AMC and OLTL Canceled! Part 2!

I think it's probably dead. Or maybe just the soaps they tried to prop it up on, apparently assuming all they would need is a few ferns, a standing kitchen set, natural lighting, and operating hours of 4 AM to 1 AM.

No Offense to Cady but she's giving statements based on stuff she overheard from others. Look Cady was not in on these meetings. She has no idea what the unions wanted or PP for that matter. its just more of passing blame around. Thats not gonna bring the soaps back. Plus we dont know what the lisence agreement with ABC said. PP may have had no choice but to produce the shows as is

What I find frustrating is that if PP had taken some of the above advice not only could they have kept AMC and OLTL alive (in sleeker, paired down form), but all of those other proposed PP serials could have seen the light of day.

I'm still wondering... is TOLN dead or is it just that AMC and OLTL are no longer the flagships?

I assume it's dead. Lack of funding means lack of funding for everything. At least that's my interpretation.

Love the spin! This is FIRSTHAND stuff for the most part. I believe it, cause other stuff backs it up, the stuff unions have said, the lack of contact for months with Lucci & so on.

OT: Do people really still think that GH being Canned & Katie taking its time slot On Sept 6th 2012 is a RUMOR. Just got told to stop talking about it as its happening. Thats how rumors spread. I mean really. I saw print ads that Said Katie coming Sept 6th 2012 ABC. Get Ya Heads Outta the Sand GH Fans

I did love Cady's business model ideas. Its what I would do

They were going to fund the other shows by having the casts of AMC and OLTL use rabbit warrens (rabbit-sized) and hiring child labor instead of union crews. Unfortunately, those soap actors would not play along!

And you didn't base your own statements on "stuff" you overheard from others? You cannot be serious.

Cady is friends with many in that cast, she's IN the business, of course she knew what the unions and Prospect Park were discussing. Her post was coherent and made a cogent argument.

When Cady said that she knew about the union negotiations "intimately" I took that to mean that she was one of the actors that was trying to help PP work with the union. Granted that's just a conclusion on my part but she's clearly the activist type, I could see her being active in the union on some level. Like I said we all get to decide for ourselves who is lying, telling the truth or covering their ass. Cady didn't say anything in that post that gave me any reason to question her intentions or information. I can't say the same for the information coming from or about PP. Of course MMV.

Just let it go, darling... let it go... :lol: It's not worth the hassle. Especially with selective cherry pickers.

So psyched to be shooting at Desperate Housewives this week. Can't say what my part is... But I'm having a blast.

That's so 2006. Sucking on the ABC teet once again.

Sigh. You're right.

Cam is a whore and that's why I love him. Money's money baby and if there's a pole, he'll work it. If you want to touch someone in the Champagne Room, he's the stripper you need to ask for. Bless him for it.
