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

[Soapsuds]

Pepperman was a good director on ATWT. Again those sources...I doubt this will take off but if does I see it as a total failure. Most of the fans and actors/tech people have moved on. So what happens to the actors who are at GH now?? Not that its a lot but still....there is just too much still left to do and by the time this takes off...well...

[Chris B]

The four actors on GH don't make or break the show, hell Llanview is already going on with them in Port Charles so I'd just keep them there. Chances are the actors won't agree to leave anyway. I don't think the problem is going to be casts. Thinking of how many unemployed actors t here are from both shows, they'll be able to get together a solid cast of returning vets with a few newbies/recasts thrown in. The problem is the writing. I want to know who is truly being considered. If they fail picking HWs then this is dead. I think it will 100% happen at this point, but I fear bad writing will kill these shows and all this effort would have been for nothing. Getting a deal with the Writers Guild should've been the #1 priority.

[Soapsuds]

Of course the new GH actors/OLTL wont leave...I wouldn't either....a soap on tv with a nice paycheck to a soap online which may fail anyways

[Chris B]

If Prospect Park is smart, instead of forcing the characters off GH, they should cut a deal with GH that allows them to keep the characters full-time, but they'd still be able to use them for guest spots if needed. I could see the actors agreeing to this since the only other option would be pulling the characters completely. I think that would be fair.

[Pine Charles]

If AMC does return and Susan Lucci doesn't, I could see them saying JR shot Erica.... Then Erica could be away at some hospital in Europe or something.

I need them to make Brody the father of Liam, so Natalie will have no ties to John McDroopy.

I don't care how many guilds they sign with. I just don't see where the money to cover all the costs would come from. Revenue from web ads isn't enough. Jamey and all of them are pretending like the only obstacle to their failed first attempt was issues with the unions.

[NothinButAttitude]

Maria is gonna pop up on AMC y'all. I'm telling you. . . LOL. And they better not how that talentless hack, Dena. If that's the case, then they can stay dead.

[kylefish76]

According to soapsuncensored they already have the money they need, more than they need. They got it thru Private placement

After leaving ATWT in 2005, Agnes wanted Hogan Sheffer for AMC. Maybe he could go there

[marceline]

So apparently it's more than the shows coming back from the dead?

[Soapsuds]

Yeah I agree...it failed the first time....why would it work the second try....

[NothinButAttitude]

Oh heavens no. He was and still is burnt out since his ATWT stint.

[Steve]

Kay Alden was once consulting on AMC so hopefully they'll pick her and let OLTL have Dena again!

[LoyaltoAMC]

LOL, I could see MAB frothing to get the AMC job. Out of that Ficore list, I believe that James Harmon Brown, Pete Rich, Gary Tomlin and Michael Conforti have written for AMC, so there would be history there. Tomlin is currently at Days, right? I hope it's not Brown...he is such a meh, middle of the road, plot-driven writer.
