I think it's more important to preserve what's seen as the internal consistency of the online soap fandom and that whole press circuit. If it's not in the club, it's not okay. A lot of these people seem to see OLTL and AMC going away after not being done "the right way" as righting some sort of balance where they all felt very out of sorts.

All I can say is watching three different soap operas masterminded by the same old network and, ostensibly, the same two dudes - which, BTW, is absolutely not going to happen - would get very old very fast. But it's what a lot of people know and are comfortable with. It's the landscape they understand and feel versed in. And it's dying out.

Whatever happens, happens. I always said if I got one good time out of this whole thing I'd be happy; the productions they put on were far more than I had hoped for so soon after cancellation. I've given up guessing the future. I'm just going to go watch some movies and screen the rest of this mess out for a while.

AGREED. If PP cant get more seasons out of AMC & OLTL, then what this will say to other companies is dont try. It didnt work and if these soap blogs that feel ABC getting AMC/OLTL rights back will help the four remaining daytime network soaps, they are moronic

I feel like so much of this antipathy stems from that moronic situation with GH because otherwise there's no excuse for it. PP didn't take any viewers from the network soaps. I know some people tried to say that they did but that was just myopia and ignorance. At the same time I wonder if the soap press would've been supportive even if there hadn't been that stupidity. If PP had brought back AMC and GL and there hadn't been this ridiculous hostage crisis would they still be standing outside Stamford with a gas can and a lighter waiting for the chance to dance around a bonfire? I actually think they would. It's not PP they hate, it's change.
