All My Children AMC: The Prospect Park Era (old production thread)

I thought MCE quit???

[Vee]

Fired, quit - either way they should never have let it happen. They could not afford it at that point.

[alexisfan07]

Amen. She MADE the show at the time, so integral to my enjoyment.

I'm excited to see

again. He has so many ties to the canvas and always makes me laugh. I just hope the David hate insanity is minimized.

[Ryan Chamberlain]

Do we know when Season 2 will start filming yet? And, if MEK will really be back then?

Don't tease me with the Thaddeus stuff and not play it out.

[Jonathan]

Well, I hope he shows up just for you! I know you're a fan.

[Vee]

There's no way they teased Tad and used MEK's voice if they aren't going to use him and he's not going to show up. He recorded the lines himself. It's not really a debate.

[greens_dupres]

Agreed PP may not always make the smartest moves but there is no way in hell Ginger Smith is going to dangle mEK out there for fans who have been asking for him all season if she knew they couldn't follow through. She's no fool & wouldn't invite that kind of wrath.

And like Vee said, they used MEK's voice and credited him. he may not be in ep 1 of S2 but I do believe he's on the way.

[EricMontreal22]

It reminds me of fans who were so sure PP must have filmed and then cut Kendall's very brief return.

SOD is claiming that AMC has been targeted to restart production on October 21. http://soapoperadigest.com/content/amc-return-production-october

Seriously October...and how long from then would it take for them to release these episodes....lull/lag...

[Chris B]

I hope they film an entire season (and hopefully a good amount of episodes) before releasing it. I also hope they do the same for OLTL, but we'll see.

[John]

Given that AMC had no scripts approved that could be why while OLTL did have approved scripts for s2. Maybe they are shooting the full season of AMC at once

[Vee]

There had been some scuttlebutt before about the shows possibly not returning til January.

I don't care when AMC (or OLTL) come back so long as they take their time and do it right. There really was no time for Season 1. OLTL in particular needed more.

[LeClerc]

Neither Eden nor PG will be available then right?

[marceline]

Yep. Besides given the fact that two actresses are in an advanced state of pregnancy the extra lead time is probably a good thing.

Ha! We were thinking the same thing. ER said on MORE that she was 5 months pregnant so she's definitely out. I think PG is due in November so she's out too.
