Members LeClerc Posted May 18, 2013 Members Share Posted May 18, 2013 Hmmm maybe I didn't see any of the ads last night because they don't run the ads during 30 Rock, which is what I was watching. I still think they have dropped the shows (why else delete the show pages?) but I should clearly retract my statement that the ads have stopped running. I have been checking out American Horror Story as well as that was the commercial they kept running last night and it caught my interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted May 19, 2013 Members Share Posted May 19, 2013 #AMC and #OLTL fans imagine how the fans of other canceled soaps like #ATWT, #GL, #AW feel, I'm sure they'd gladly take 2 eps. a week over 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 19, 2013 Members Share Posted May 19, 2013 Not if they were being produced by Prospect Park on such a ridiculous production schedule. But that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ~bl~ Posted May 19, 2013 Members Share Posted May 19, 2013 I've lost many soaps over the years, and I'd be worried and disappointed if any of them came back and the same thing happened that is happening with AMC and OLTL as I'd fear for their survival. I've mourned for them, and if they came back and things got messed up I'd have to relive that loss. Please don't say that every P&G fan or Santa Barbara fan, Generations, Sunset Beach, Passions etc viewer thinks alike and as we're all unique. If I was told we'll get one special episode, a movie or miniseries of any soap I once watched I could happily accept it like a reunion special for example. I'm not sure if every fan of any of those shows would be cool with being jerked around. I'm hoping for the best, that we'll have these shows for at least the 110 episodes and even more, but I am not holding my breath as I've been let down enough times to know better. That said regardless of what happens, I am glad for the people who got to work again due to the revivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 19, 2013 Members Share Posted May 19, 2013 Corrie was 2 a week for almost thirty years. Eastenders for about eight or nine years. I think in some ways two a week is almost better, as long as they manage to get everything together and get the audience. I guess that's the question. (I realize that isn't exactly profound) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted May 19, 2013 Members Share Posted May 19, 2013 I can live with it. I think it's viable. I'd rather have at least 3, but first I'd rather they make it to the one-year mark and hopefully beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted May 19, 2013 Members Share Posted May 19, 2013 but are American audiences the same as their British counterparts??? I don't think so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted May 19, 2013 Members Share Posted May 19, 2013 I still worry, though, about the pace at which they're writing and producing these shows. Even if they were to produce just five eps per week (a little over two weeks' worth of episodes) that would be so much better, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
