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

  • Member

WTF!!!!!

EXCLUSIVE: Here is a great holiday gift for soap fans: I’ve learned that Prospect Park has revived its plan to continue cancelled ABC daytime dramas All My Children and One Life To Live online. I hear the company behind USA hit Royal Pains has inked deals with SAG-AFTRA and DGA for the soaps’ production, eyed to begin in the first quarter of 2013.

When was Mac on recurring?!

For about a year and a half. He was taken off contract in November 2001 and was eventually put back on in March 2003.

While I understand Prospect Park's methods, I think it's utter crap how they've handled things thus far and most definitely the first time around.

Do you think any of the OLTL actors on GH will do PP? I don't think they will, is it bad that I feel bad for them?

i think ABC & PP will work things out. They will stay on GH but Visit OLTL when story warrants

Yea I'm inclined to agree with this but we shall see

And I think PP, believing that these characters can bring a sizable number of eyeballs to the OLTL reboot, will play hardball with ABCD, who will be forced to relinquish them. Whatever story plans Ronnie might have had for them at GH will have to be dropped, the characters will transition to OLTL 2.0, maybe they'll be as successful and maybe not (that is, if the damn show ever premieres), and when it looks as if they might be available again for GH, either GH itself will have moved on, or they'll be cancelled, leaving RH, KA and ME screwed as !@#$%^&*].

But that is only what I think.

I agree and I think ME and RH are smart enough and been in the business long enough to know this, that is why I think they won't be doing any "favor" for PP, I think they will be released and look for new jobs, maybe they will sign with another soap

The thing is I think they have been working on this for a while & I Believe they will come to anagreement where they will go to OLTL for the relaunch, then back to GH and then will Visit OLTL when needed. This will benefit both shows.

will the actors agree to that, being away from their homes for months to do PP, make less money, i am not sure

First off we dont know that it would be months could be less. No one has to move all they have to do is get housing for that time in CT. As for money I would gather ABC would negoiate with PP that for the episodes that they do of OLTL, RH, KA & ME get paid what they get paid for an episode of GH

Scotty, I forgot about the bumpers! I'm smiling just thinking about them now in my head smile.png Viki's took so long to come out, especially given the fact that she didn't end up posing for one haha. But yes, I agree with your sentiment about the title card/that musical cue. Would there be rights issues though with the music?

I sure hope they retain Ilene on recurring. Honestly, if I were her, I'd just approach them and be like "I'd be up for it! Do you have a place for Roxy?"

Brett.....how could you forget about those bumpers? LOL I loved how they did those....except half of the ones they did were for characters that no one really cared about.....lol. And I didn't think that they would ever get to Viki's...her's should have been the very first one they did.

And I'm not sure if they would have issues with the theme music or not. I have been wondering about that though.....

What if David's blonde mystery patient isn't Babe, but a very much alive Di Henry? Why would David have Di? Because she's not who she says she is. Di's biological mother is none other than...Rae Cummings.

Why would this matter to David? Because, in her time away, Rae has taken up with a man named Roger Thorne, who just so happens to be a major part of Project Orpheus.

In late 2007, David learned the truth about Di and who her mother was. After Di was "killed", David swooped in and saved her, though she is in a coma. He never tells Roger that he has Di, as he hopes she will one day awaken and he will be able to use her to blackmail Roger out of Project Orpheus, as he feels that he is very evil. He knows that Roger does love Rae, and feels he will step away from Project Orpheus if it means reuniting Rae with the daughter she never knew.

David begins to panic, because Di goes missing. Who could have taken her? Well, who else but her long lost half sister Skye Chandler?

Skye blows into town and blackmails David, telling him she will expose his lie to Roger if he doesn't get her access to an experimental drug she needs to save her very sick daughter.

David eventually gets Skye the drug. Skye promises to give Di back to him, but when they arrive at the hospital where Skye was keeping her, they find she is missing.

They eventually receive a video from Roger revealing that he has kidnapped both Di and Rae, and that if they don't get him 25 million dollars, he will kill them both. Skye and David begin the search for Di and Rae, and eventually piece together enough information to figure out that Roger is actually the long forgotten and lethally dangerous Bobby Martin.

They inform Tad, who is unaware of anything to do with Bobby. Tara and Joe Martin return to Pine Valley and fill in the missing pieces of the puzzle: many years ago, Bobby went away to ski camp where he was in a very bad accident, and presumed dead. Because of the immense pain this caused the family, they agreed never to speak of it again...Until now.

Skye and David receive another message from Bobby revealing that if he does not get his 25 million in 24 hours, he will kill them both. Skye, Joe, Tad, Tara and David put all of their funds together and head off to pay Bobby.

Upon confronting him, Bobby reveals that the owners of the ski camp "adopted him", telling him that the Martins no longer wanted him. They tortured and abused him, causing him to run away from home at 18.

They give him the money, but Bobby is unwilling to turn over Rae and Di, as he refuses to go to jail. He takes them, as well as Tad, to his car at gunpoint. The rest chase after him, resulting in a car crash. Bobby is arrested, and Joe agrees to take responsibility for him, to have him committed.

Bobby is committed to Oak Haven, where he runs into his old friend...Janet Dillon.

I love it too! I really think they wasted Di. She could have been a great, long lasting character.

Though at first, before I started reading it, I saw Bobby and assumed you were talking about Nina and Cliff's son, and I was like "he's psycho?". OOPS.
