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

[marceline]

I'm not counting tweets as confirmation unless they come from the source. I'm not trying to be bitchy but I simply don't consider Twitter a good source of anything but drama. Who/what confirmed Hartley? Because unless it came from her camp or PP, I consider that rumor.

[Errol]

Understandable. Here's a recent Tweet from Hartley herself on January 3rd.

Lindsay Hartley ‏@L_Hartley

“@Savesoapgenre: Congratulations @L_Hartley for signing with PP for AMC See the article http://www.tvguide.com/News/Vincent-Irizarry-Lindsay-Hartley-All-My-Children-Reboot-1058382.aspx … via @Savesoapgenre”thx! Xo

MEK and Bobbie Eakes had some of the worst anti-chemistry I can remember on AMC.

[marceline]

Ahhh, thank you. I admit to being way too suspicious of PP news but I'm just not accepting anything but "official" verifiable information as fact. I consider anything else rumor.

They could make Tad interesting again though he has kids. They don't even need to make him an irresponsible parent type. They need to explore layers and maybe re-explore him and Opal's early life together. Erica never really lost her edge after the birth of Bianca. They could have Tad a caring parent that puts his kids first. Maybe the next "Joe Martin" but with a temporary edge. I would like Damon to return because Tad having to raise a gut who is in his late teens/early twenties would be able to evolve Tad by having him see things through Joe's perspective. Though I really hate that Damon repeated Tad's mistake with Liza because that seemed forced.

Here is what I mean about Tad seeing Joe's persepctive:

I'm with you. That's why I didn't report on the Prospect Park news until I could confirm things on my own, which is why I posted something on January 1st and not before.

@MissCoolwell Unfortunately, haven't been given an exact start date yet. However, I know there goal is to have us in production B4 March...

If this is real, I'll be fascinated to see what kind of new characters are added to the canvas. IMO, that will be just as important as who returns.

I have to say that I am enormously grateful Cartini didn't try importing AMC actors/characters to GH but I can't help but enjoy the delicious irony of the fact that their insistence on trying to resurrect OLTL by any means necessary is probably going to screw GH, nuOLTL and the actors involved with both.

If this actually happens then PP should try to rig up some type of little event with that pilot Josh Duhamel is doing about a dying soap. He was on AMC, after all, and they'd get some free publicity.

[alexisfan07]

If they have flexible filming schedules, I can't see the issue with landing someone like Josh Duhamel for an 'arc.'

I started a Embarrassing Soap Confessions thread!

[Cheap21]

okay? What does that have to do with OLTL/AMC coming back?

[allmc2008]

That thread was inspired by a discussion we started yesterday on this thread.

[dragonflies]

I think they could say JR ended up shooting himself(and dying) and Dixie and Tad moved away cause the memories got to be too much

TK lives in Connecticut so if the film their, it's practically in is backyard, I can see him doing it, but probably not full time, same with Lish cause she was ready to leave the show anyways before it was cancelled. Doesn't David Canary live in CT as well? maybe we'll get some Adam occassionally

[allmc2008]

I hope we will have closing credits formatted the way before the mid/late-90s
