How is RH even allowed to do both shows when he has a contract with ABC? Given the current legal troubles, wouldn't he be out of OLTL after this initial cycle?

He worked it out before the legal troubles. So he ha s alegit contract with both ABC & PP that needs to be honored

Just signed up for Hulu Plus and got the app on my phone. Can't believe it's tomorrow! I am totally getting up at 5 am tomorrow. I usually get up at 530 so whats an extra half hour? ;)

I would have preferred Agnes Nixon as #1 for both shows.

@nelliebranco hey boo, apparently your scoop that PP plans to recast Todd/Starr is not reliable and I should believe *other* places.

Oh, good grief. Of course he's not reliable! Ryan/Omar/whoever used to post here, didn't he? He knows that as well as anyone! Hell, a couple weeks ago Nelson Branco was telling us John Stamos was on GH! Branco's record went south quite some time ago, long before he was fired from TV Guide Canada, which I sort of envision as the last waystation of the netherworld before one slips into the bowels of Hell. Or maybe that's TV Guide Abbottabad. I'd heard rumors about John and Starr being recast, but not Todd. Certainly not after they slap 'im into the opening.

I miss the days when all the barely-employed "online soap reporters" and ol' Branco were hissing and snapping at each other. That was at least entertaining. The conventional wisdom that Nelson Branco could never get it wrong was put to the test at least two or three years ago and found wanting even then.

The only time I heard of Todd possibly being recast was when Errol reported it and that was before Roger agreed to do OLTL

How does that even work? He's a regular on both soaps or a regular on one and more or less recurring on the other? Considering both tape on opposite coasts, commuting and scheduling is something to worry about as it seems like it would be hard to imagine him playing major characters on both since I assume his primary commitment is GH

My impression is that the PP schedule of 5 weeks on/off for each show is what makes that viable.

Lest we forget, both shows will have him onscreen at the same time over the next several weeks, so the old rules no longer apply.

I also believe RH signed a new deal at aBC and that incuded him also being able to sign with PP for OLTL

Could Roger Howarth look any less enthused?

LOL, I'm pretty sure that was on purpose/staged to be "funny"/"ironic," especially considering the upside down 1. I think PP wouldn't have let it go out otherwise.

The other thing about filming is apparently GH has a one-week hiatus in its shooting every month, so that's a time when Howarth could fly back to the East Coast to tape OLTL.

Nelson is also shocked that Trevor St. John "lied" to him about not going back. And he thought the OLTL characters would all feature in the Nurses Ball. So, you know, grain of salt. I could go on, there's a long list of duds he's churned out in the last few years, particularly since he made the big move to pay-per-view Unabomber pamphlet newsletter.

This appears to be the "real" #1, with RH doing the Blue Steel.
