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.

Some of us do feel PP has to prove themselves and there's nothing wrong with that, just like there's nothing wrong with looking forward to what they could bring to these shows.

I think a lot of us feel that PP has to prove themselves but there's a difference between being cautious and being negative to the point of nihilism.

We're back to this "prove themselves" garbage, are we?

Here's the flaw in this, shall I be polite and call it, logic: You people are soap fans with internet access and limited to no knowledge of what it takes to do something like this that has never been done before. There is no precedent, therefore the only thing you're judging them by is what you think should happen. At this juncture, your whining and moaning is irrelevant. The people that Prospect Park needs to prove anything to are the financiers, the guilds/unions and the people they hire to work on these programs. YOU are not a factor in this stage of the game, therefore Prospect Park isn't concerned with measuring up to your own personal standards of how they should be running their business. The time these people need to prove anything to anyone -- whiny critics and rah rah bootlickers, alike -- is the day these series debut.

Jesus! I really don't get this sense of entitlement. None of us are entitled to press releases. None of us are entitled to know who they're hiring to direct. None of us are entitled to know who they'll even be casting. None of us are entitled to know where they'll be filming. None of us are entitled to know their production schedule. Would it be nice to know these things? Absolutely. But when it's all said and done, these decisions will be made with or without you feeling they've "proven themselves" to you... no matter how negative and depressing you try to make this venture out to be.

Ugh. Now I'm agreeing with both you and Vee.

Nothing makes sense anymore.

We're not mindless robots, if someone isn't all "rah rah PP" then there's nothing wrong with that. The bootlicking of PP by some is nauseating. Some go too far with it, there's positivity and then there's thinking PP can do no wrong....

See differing opinions are GOOD

And the Cartini and McCalivia ass licking isn't palatable to a lot of us. Pp has to prove themselves. It's an uphill battle. And being chastised for wanting to keep the characters they paid for and not wanting to launch without any of the leading men the show ended with is a hardship. One you seem perfectly happy for them to suffer. Because you do not care if they succeed.

guess they don't want viewers we are the number one person they need to prove themselves to

And I don't give a crap about the actors. Sorry. Not an actor fangurl. And Snort Charles fangurls aren't going to watch OLTL anyway. The people who SHOULD matter to PP are loyal OLTL viewers who actually care about OLTL more than a Calivia reunion.

Which viewers? The same "viewers" who are proclaiming never to watch a second of these shows, already dooming the shows to failure? Those viewers? Sorry to say, they overplayed their minimal hand. If there is this need to prove themselves, it's to the people who have faith in this project or the "rah rah bootlickers." Why would anyone waste time proving themselves to people who've already written them off and been so vocal about it?

Again, it's already done! This point is moot. There's nothing for people to get.

Basically.

I've been saying this since July 2011, but people need to sitdeyazzdown and...

WAIT. AND. SEE.

In the olden days, you wouldn't have had a choice. You wouldn't have known who was going to be on the show until it premiered, and you wouldn't have known anything else at all.
