AMC: The Prospect Park Era (old production thread)

But Debbi also played Angie on LOVING and THE CITY, so maybe he would be able to use that character (with Creative Horizons' permission) so long as he didn't refer to her history in Pine Valley? I don't know how that particular situation might be resolved.

RC and his sycophants should stop focusing on sticking it to PP and concentrate on getting that no-talent hack to focus on the show that he supposed to be writing. It's time for him to stop throwing other characters and past shows into the creative woodchipper that is his writers room.

I don't watch GH. Never have. I was a GL girl. If you look at my comment I was saying that Ron should concentrate on writing GH.

This isn't about Carlivati vs. Guza, It's about Carlivati being a lousy writer and an unprofessional egomaniac who doesn't have the decency to keep his hands off of other writers' characters and stories. He's pissing all over the ABC soap legacy like a hound peeing on every tree in the neighborhood. You may like the smell. I don't.

Now can we please toss the discussion of The Hack back to the OLTL or GH threads. Thankfully, he was never able to incorporate AMC into his fanfic and, good Lord willing, he never will.

Wow so negative around here. AMC & OLTL were schedyuled to film 17 weeks total and alternate filming which allows a lot of down time to do film & Primetime TV.

I doubt VI being on one episode of Homeland means AMC and OLTL are doomed

Logan automatically assumes it's bad news. Typical I guess. If this is true, honestly, I am glad the announcement will be sooner rather than later whether it's good news or not. If it is bad news, I do think it would be nice to do something to end the shows once and for all from a storyline perspective.

I used to respect Michael Logan a little, but I'm not sure he could have been more thirsty for this over the last year. He had a brief stab at impartiality, but when the shows went on hiatus he went a little HAM on twitter and haughtily declared that he "never drank the Kool-Aid" i.e., bothered with the shows.

Whatever happens, it was a good run. And despite the clusterfuck of PP's management, it was a product that was produced and conceptualized outside the incestuous bubble of the soap media and the usual hands they're comfortable with, which is what I think really set a lot of these guys off. It felt different to me. And it proved that soaps can be new, modern and different while still having the classical building blocks, utilizing both soap veterans BTS and new blood who don't have the same old ideas, contacts, interests. I could talk more about how that played out on both AMC and OLTL very differently, but that's another post.

The PP revivals didn't restore my faith in the future of soaps, because I always had that. I knew they'd be back someday, and I still think many of these brands will return sooner or later, hopefully sooner, in some form or another. It did prove to me that there's still an active and viable market even today. And I think it restored a few other folks' faith, both offline and online, and in the public eye, and that's what's most important to me.
