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

[Errol]

No, I said marketing/ad dept. PR doesn't necessarily fall under either.

Hey Errol didn't you say you were going to retire this thread at 300 pages? I think a fresh thread might be nice. Maybe one with a link to the "no discussion" thread at the top. Just a thought.

[Mr. Vixen]

I think he changed his mind to 400.

[Errol]

More like others said NO to me, lol. I'll retire this on February 25th

[MrQuartermaine]

What's the significance to February 25th?

[Scotty]

That's when AMC is said to begin production....with OLTL on March 11.

All the talk in this thread is testament that there is interest in the online soaps and that Prospect Park, leaks and all, somehow managed something right in getting publicity. I know I came back to SON and to the soap world because of the Deadline leaked information back in December and checking out this thread for updates. I have Prospect Park to thank for checking out Days and falling in love with it, in a way.

Just read that AMC/OLTL will get new opening sequences.

[Vee]

Can I get some confirmation on that? I've only been waiting for a new OLTL opening for nine [!@#$%^&*] years.

I didn't expect any openings on Hulu, actually - just the logo and onscreen credits.

[Scotty]

And to think....it only took OLTL getting cancelled and rebooted on the Internet for them to finally get a new one.

I suspect they may only have title cards......but hopefully they will go ahead and to a complete opening.

Where did you read that at....just curious.

[NothinButAttitude]

Aww neat! But I'd rather them do modern spins on their older openings, as they don't have cast photos, which requires updates constantly and potentially cutting from the budget.

Am I wrong in presuming PP could have not allowed those characters to go to GH in the first place? I sure wish they'd been brought on as new characters to begin with. We can debate whether they (the characters) actually benefitted GH or not. Apparently many think GH did gain since theywant tocheatPP out of the characters they own and paid for. And it remains to be seen whether or not PP benefitted from FV's and Ron's peculiar vision of keeping OLTL alive. Don't see how PP got anything out of it but a headache at this point. All pp gets out of the prevailing vision I see from GH fans is that the valuable components belong on the valuable show. Pp should take whatever is left and make do.

I think the time is right to update the old Peabo Bryson opening. Obviously the visuals can change a great deal, but I'd love to see the song updated and covered.

Technically that would be a new opening, wouldn't it?
