That's better now.

One Life to Live" begins filming on Monday, March 11.

Okay. But I don't buy it and IMO it's not going to happen.

I got that. Just thought I'd put it out there and hang on the rim (its March Madness after all).

Go FLGC.

When is the debut?

Who is Michael Fairman btw?

I don't know a thing about sports, I'm afraid. What is FLGC?

Right now, I'm wondering who the two actors were PP got down to as a Todd recast, since it looks like we'll be needing one.

When is the debut?

Of AMC and OLTL online? April 29th. Or did you mean something else?

Love the pictures in the thread today, from shooting as well as of the actors when not shooting. Finally Shenaz Treasury! And looks like awesome Clint/Viki/Jeffrey/Todd/Matthew/Destiny hospital scenes coming. Corbin Bleu radiates charisma, as does Robert Gorrie. The chemistry positively fizzles from these pictures between them and the vets like Erika Slezak and Roger Howarth. Good stuff ahead.

As for the the whole GH3 situation ... Thom Racina seems really positive about whatever the resolution is on the PP side so I'm going to be optimistic. I guess this is "2 for the price of 1" ... In the long run it may be better. GH keeps its actors, the actors stay on TV with its probably higher pay, OLTL keeps its characters, and the actors have more roles to choose from once their GH contracts end. They can try to stay on GH or go back to their old character on OLTL (assuming the character hasn't been recast with someone who's done a better job already), vs just having one possible character to play.

Some interesting commentary I found when checking the FB page for Jeff Giles's upcoming OLTL interview tome, Llanview in the Afternoon, which is now adding an updated section re: the show's revival.

Brian McAndrew

Anything on the Alderson's, Kelley Missal, Carmen DelPetro?

Llanview in the Afternoon: An Oral History of 'One Life to Live'

I've interviewed Kristen before, and she's terribly sweet, but I kind of think it'd be a waste of time. Her answers are always very cheerful and very friendly without necessarily revealing anything, if that makes sense. Besides, judging from the response I got when I tried setting something up with Michael Easton, I think the "GH" Llanview contingent is being very careful about what they say in public these days.

Update from Errol Lewis:

Sorry peeps. 2 exhausted. Sum version of #OLTL news ABC: no announcement at this time, PP: RH is taping as Todd, RH rep: playing Todd on GH.

Here's a pic from Shenaz. Mmm, who's the guy on the right?

Gorgeous

Random but does that read as "Ho in the Shade" to anyone else?

Anyway, I love the TV Guide pictures. So glad the show is coming back looking this good.

I know this is from hours ago but I did a double take. I wondered if cheap21 had written a musical.

Hmm, more confusion after what ABC had said, but I had figured it would make sense for him to go back to GH as Todd since PP was already okay with having him go back as Todd from before.

Guess we'll get confirmation if this is the real story is in the next few days. (Not to doubt your sources, Errol.)

More from the great Shenaz. Rama and Cutter appear to be hanging at a club called "Shelter".

Another of her posts is titled "Rama's new single life," and along with these others it does suggest Rama is back on the market despite Vimal still being in town. She could be playing it up posing with the guys on-set, though. I'm sure there's still story to play there together or separately.

While I often found the Aubrey/Cutter/Rama, etc. shenanigans to be a tiresome time-waster with the show's final months on ABC ticking down, I did like JK and ST with Amanda Setton, and I found that that whole area of the canvas - with Cutter, Kim, Rama, even Aubrey/Christine, who I couldn't stand - had brought back the 'outsider' element to OLTL again that it always returns to, of people of different backgrounds and histories sometimes living on the fringes of polite society. Rama was a social climber and schemer who also wanted to be a good wife; Kim was - well a lot of things, and she and Cutter were the all but orphaned con artist children of a madwoman. Christine, no one really knows if she is Katrina Karr's kid or not. I'm glad two of those characters - two of the ones that worked for me - are back, because I do think they contribute to that renegade texture OLTL has always had. And Indian characters are so important, and so hard to come by.

Yeah I guess ABC could've put the kibosh on it but I don't see her as willing to do it, either

I'm not a KA fan but I'd be really shocked if she turned down a 1 week reunion with KDP, KM, FL and (TSJ?) and all her OLTL family. She seems very attached to being Starr Manning and 1 week isn't much to ask.

I really believe the problem is PP wanted some bigtime $$ for letting GH use the characters another year. These fights are always about $$$ more than anything.

Unexpectedly done with work early(at 11pm)and bummed to be leaving the set? Ha if that's not a sign I love my job don't know what is. #OLTL

Despite having a serious case of the Mondays I can't help but feel so blessed. Back at the studio for another busy week of shooting!
