Members frequentsoapfan Posted February 17, 2013 Members Share Posted February 17, 2013 AMC and ILTL are sister shows. The towns were similar and they had the same creator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Chris B Posted February 17, 2013 Members Share Posted February 17, 2013 I agree that B&B/Y&R & AMC/OLTL are sister shows (moreso for the Bell shows), but I also view PC and GH more as the same show. They took such major characters from the GH legacy and both shows are set in the same city. I just can't help but view it as the same. Kinda like Footballers Wives and it's spin-off Footballers Wives: Extra Time, which has the same setting, but involves the secondary characters from the main show.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 17, 2013 Members Share Posted February 17, 2013 I'm going to take a guess and say he meant OLTL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ChitHappens Posted February 17, 2013 Members Share Posted February 17, 2013 The same creator doesn't make them sister shows, does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 17, 2013 Members Share Posted February 17, 2013 not necessarily but when said creator establishes enough ties and references between the two, I would say they are. The two are set in towns which are relatively close to each other and there have been plenty of crossovers over the decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TeamEric Posted February 18, 2013 Members Share Posted February 18, 2013 I watched both GH and PC. When I hear Tainted Love play on the oldies station, I still smile fondly remembering ME's sexy Caleb and PC vamp story. But, that doesn't mean I ever wanted the vamps to cross over to GH. Actually I much prefered GH's Lucy and Kevin romance and stories to PC's Lucy the vampire slayer and Livvie's dad Kevin. I wanted to watch their GH personas reunite on GH. Lucy, not newbie Sabrina, should be shown regularly in charge of producing the NB. A PC reunion is all well and good, but focusing it all on the vamps stuff just doesn't work for me. Especially when it's written in RC's so every mocking style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted February 18, 2013 Members Share Posted February 18, 2013 no but the towns being connected and characters being connected makes them sister shows. Just like As the World Turns and Guiding Light were AMC/OLTL had stories that intersected alot as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members allmc2008 Posted February 18, 2013 Members Share Posted February 18, 2013 I consider AW/ATWT as distant cousins because some of the AW people went to ATWT but they were on a different network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted February 18, 2013 Members Share Posted February 18, 2013 Irna saw AW/ATWT as more related to each other in theme than to GL with Another World being another As the World Turns. Of course, since Mike Bauer from GL crossed over to AW, this was odd. I saw OLTL and AMC more as sibling soaps than the P&G ones because of the ABC cross promotion. B&B and Y&R were even closer as for many more years they had the same team. Getting back to GH, I never saw it having anything other than spinoffs.

Members R Sinclair Posted February 18, 2013 Members Share Posted February 18, 2013 I don't care about any of that. I was amused by Soapboy's Mr. Vixen's reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
