I know it is Nelson but he has been right about many things. Anyway, has anyone bought this issue yet?? It is regarding the lawsuite. Not sure if I should buy it or not. If anyone has can you send us excerpts??

It sounds like specifically this is more about OLTL--and at least some of the papers shown are ones we what seems ages back

[John]

whats the readers digest of the court papers

ETA: Read the lawsuit and it seems by the expert in SOU that its too early to tell what wuill happen RE PP Vs ABC

My beloved Rock Fittruck has shown up on Masters of Sex in a recurring role as a male prostitute. Sex scenes, but (shocking for a Showtime show) no nudity, sadly.

[Vee]

That's disgusting.

[allmc2008]

How is that AMC related?

[CBRVA83]

Do you mean Finn Wittrock, who played Tad's son Damon Miller on AMC?

[marceline]

Indeed he does. Eric is referring back to the way we used to mangle his name here. My faves include: Dash Riprock, Twink Slapdash and Fjord Spitball.

[Vee]

No, Rock played D'Angelo Martin.

[allmc2008]

Oh Ya!!

Ha, I couldn't remember them all.

Ha, I couldn't remember them all.

LMAO at the first comment.

Oy @ that "news report"

And haven't we all heard ratings were fine? I mean, maybe it wasn't HUGE but I also blame PP/Hulu in dropping the ball for advertising. And not to mention the mishandling on OWN.

And we can "assume" it's budget, but we have no idea until PP says something. (Of course, I personally believe too that it's budget and they didn't make the money they wanted, but frankly, I blame PP for not doing more)

I guess maybe the Globe (LMAO at that source) would know since they were all over this from the start?

PP kind of has themselves to blame for this debacle overall, IMO. I think they mishandled a LOT of aspects of this from the start, whether it was a startup production or not.

[marceline]

Whatever. The type of people going crazy over that are the same crackpots who go crazy over everything.

Geez that cast photo. They couldn't even bother to try to find a pic from this century?
