I like the picture, except for what Destiny and Danielle are wearing. It definitely has a darker, grittier tone to it than the AMC one, which I think is going to be very necessary in bringing back the distinctive qualities that set these shows apart in the first place. I want it to be clear and obvious that there are some stories that AMC wouldn't do that would be right up OLTL's alley and vice versa.

When will the option to pre-buy the Season on iTunes?

I am waiting to see the new LOGOS!!

ER Tosh · March 11, 2013

Maybe RH is on "on contract" the same as ER is "on contract" (was it ever cleared up if she is just doing an arc on the show or will she be around full time?)

dragonflies · March 11, 2013

Yeah supposedly ER is on contract with AMC, but reports say it's more a cameo appearance.

I doubt it means he's long term. everyone's probably on contract if they tape more than a week or so
