HOLIDAY MIRACLE: Prospect Park Back On Track To Revive AMC and OLTL

[BingCherry]

AMC on AMC? That would be really off-brand for them. On the other hand, AMC does own WEtv, which would be a perfect place to put the soaps on.

Worst cases scenario: Dena Higley is a financial core writer who used to headwrite #OLTL

[LeClerc]

That's what I was thinking as well: Higley for OLTL and James Harmon Brown for AMC

[Vee]

Mama, no!

But seriously, I still don't buy any of this happening.

[dragonflies]

I can see PP doing exactly that, they want cheap, they'll get it at the show's expense

[alexisfan07]

Wow, there's some movement on the AMC front! Looks like whoever said that show was easier to put together was right

[BingCherry]

I'm on the same boat as you, but the more news that comes out the more I'm convinced it's real. They may not have actors yet but they have (most of) the unions, the shooting location and (at least for AMC) an EP. I'll be shocked if they're actually in production by their February goal, but I wouldn't be surprised one bit if this is the real deal.

[Vee]

FV and RC were also attached to OLTL 2.0 before. As were many actors. Didn't happen.

When did they get the unions? Did I miss that? Show me the receipts.

Vee I am so glad you're keeping Whitney Houston's memory alive in an appropriate way. That's probably the most entertaining part of this mess...

[dragonflies]

I'm with Vee on this.....

[DRW50]

Is Agnes Nixon involved in any of this?

[BingCherry]

According to the very reliable Deadline, PP has deals with SAG-AFTRA and DGA, but will be going fi-core.

So far no word at all that she is Carl. I can see them completely leaving her out of this

[DRW50]

Well I won't watch this thing, if it even is a thing, if she's left out.

I will say that based on how AMC treats their creative talent, PP going to them would not be a huge shock.
