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.

I'm going to give MM a chance mostly because she has most of the initials of my favorite AMC writer. Yes, I did say that! *snaps fingers* lol

Wouldn't that be a Koma?

Hopefully they keep the character in the dark about the mom-killed-dad, dad-rapist stuff until the period where they can get Lucci, Minshew and maybe a new Bianca (or ER; CBL is probably too young) on for a while.

Any go around after her initial one had horrible ratings. I usually have a ratings chart but I haven't been paying attention to the soaps in well over a year.

Just because you're a critically acclaimed writer doesn't mean you get great ratings. Just because you aren't a critically acclaimed writer does not mean you always get horrible ratings.

I think certain head writers are more suited to certain soaps than others. Just because they're successful with one doesn't mean that success will transfer to another. McTavish had some success at AMC, but was much less successful at GL and GH. Maybe AMC was the show she liked writing for the best, and was why her ratings were better there, at least for a time.

When I mention ratings and her being my favorite writer, it's always AMC I'm referencing. Same for LB.

Megan was by no means perfect at AMC (she would start out good and then by year 3 be a mess; additionally, I didn't watch her late 1990s return), but even at her worst with story-lines I still think she had a way with the characters. As a conscious viewer and not just a child watching the show, I loved her good work more than I loved anybody else's good work on AMC.

To all concerned, I have not yet been contacted by Prospect Park..as per usual, you will probably have to tell me if I am! #lastonetoknow

I totally agree, but everyone knows that already. I can honestly say that in the ten years I watched AMC, McTavish's first two years and the final year-and-a-half were the best. I don't know if I would have ever gotten into the show as much as I did if 2005-2010 AMC was my first taste of the show.

Also...ugh. I'm not here for five-year jumps. I loathe those things, and I find it especially unnecessary in AMC's case. They could easily wrap up the cliffhanger and jump into the present -- a year and a half is far enough into the future to write out certain characters.

Wow! @prospectpk has some balls!

Why do I feel like they're killing off Bianca?

I think they are recasting Starr, just a total guess based on KA's tweet

Oh that's a good thought too

I really don't think recasting Starr would be a bad thing. I actually hope they do that. IMO it would be a refreshing change that is long overdo.

I wonder if they'd then allow KA to stay on GH as someone else

Here is what Errol was refering to
