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

[NothinButAttitude]

But it doesn't have to be Peapack again. They could get a cheap studio outside NY too. Like Atlanta! Sell the damn rights P&G!!

Is that quoted from somewhere? And so they are airing together? That means we wouldn't see any episodes until Juneish

To Recap: moths are pointless, heineken is semi-gross, and I wish Prospect Park the best.

Finding good writers is the most important thing tho..If we're gonna resurrect these iconic shows, lets please do them justice. that is all

She's making some damn good comments

The number of episodes of each and how long they air came from Soaps Uncensored Issue 57

The rotating of filming has been all over twitter and was even talked about last time. It would make sense to share studio and crew (Camera, audio, lights eyc) can save $$$$$

I bet episodes of both soaps could start airing as early as May

[alexisfan07]

Thanks! Was that issue after the one where he first detailed everything?

[John]

i read it in issue 57

Now that I understand that they are only rotating filming I must say that's a good idea. Instead of paying for two studios and crews we just pay for one. I only wish networks had realized this. There were many ways to save the soaps and trim costs. CBS could have done this with ATWT and GL or trimmed them to 30 minutes. ABC could have done this. LOL Prospect Park is proving that the whole statement of "there just aren't any options." isn't true even though it's been said by all three networks. I don't think we will have to pay to watch will we? I remember they said we wouldn't in 2011.

[John]

Given that they air on #TOLN first I doubt we will pay. I could see PP say you have 7 days to watch this weeks AMC & OLTL before they move them to HULU PLUS like place where u then have to pay to view them.Then release the next weeks episodes and repeat the process. Then hopefully down road, a cable station airs them

[DramatistDreamer]

They will be filming in Stamford, CT.

I wonder if there will be a distributor involved.

I was reading about Jerry Seinfeld's online venture-- some web show about comedians, in cars, drinking coffee (I know haven't seen it, has anyone else?).

The show has been 'picked up' for additional episodes. Even though Seinfeld owns the show, Sony is the distributor.

The show is streamed both on the show's website as well as a Sony created website.

I mention this because I wonder whether Prospect Park will follow a similar model (assuming this all pans out).

If PP produces with USA, perhaps NBC/Universal (or whoever owns USA these days) will be the distributor.

You know that actually does make a lot of sense.

[Cheap21]

How soon after filming will these make it to air?

The 5 weeks of work and 5 weeks off sounds very attractive and I can see actors signing on bc of the freedom this type of schedule gives them

[doolfan]

I wish I had a job like that. Work five weeks, off for five weeks. LOL I'd sign!

[SFK]

Seriously. I think that's what's made B&B very attractive to its actors, I believe they get a lot of downtime.

[alexisfan07]

I'm not totally sure this is his facebook but this is what I saw in my feed

Lets keep our fingers cross to the return of one life to live and hopefully David Vickers to our lives.

[John]

Id say we could both back on in May

Im sure they will want to complete 5 weeks of prod of both soaps before starting to air them

[SFK]

Certain portrayers of certain characters are really trying me.
