Members John Posted December 3, 2016 Author Members Share Posted December 3, 2016 Well Robin Strasser did say she got paid for what she filmed but wanted the rest of her one year contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted December 3, 2016 Members Share Posted December 3, 2016 Hell effing NO! That person going by Todd was anything but, it's over and done and never to be revisited. I will say Ron did the right thing in the end undoing TSJ as that farce they called Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted December 3, 2016 Members Share Posted December 3, 2016 Leave OLTL & AMC dead. As others pointed out, Agnes is gone and I doubt anyone will be able to grasp her vision of both shows. Also, need I remind those who want a crossover how the Delia (of Ryan's Hope) crossover flopped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted December 3, 2016 Author Members Share Posted December 3, 2016 I hate that Ron & Frank just threw Claire Labine & her creation under the bus by doing that It would make sense only if Ava was the younger child but she is said to be older than Delia's son, Johnno Plus Ron never knew who Delia was. He called her Dee but he was writing Roxy Balsom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted December 3, 2016 Members Share Posted December 3, 2016 Ron was writing Roxy, as John stated, that wasn't Delia. And I can't believe he was allowed to do that. I don't want a supersoap. I don't want any AMC or OLTL refugee on GH whether I want the actor working or not. Howarth and Easton STILL don't fit in. Both still feel incredibly forced. And Kiki remains a horribly defined, poorly acted character. Alderson would still be just as tragic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted December 3, 2016 Members Share Posted December 3, 2016 I just want All My Children and its people to be respected for the 42 years of work they did and 42 years of entertainment they provided. If our soaps were allowed to live after death, then we wouldn't be desperate to see them "return" in the hands of people that we all know would completely and totally disappoint us on a near-daily basis.

Members robbwolff Posted December 4, 2016 Members Share Posted December 4, 2016 Not true. She said that Prospect Park owed her money along with other actors, but she did not say that she never saw a cent from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 4, 2016 Members Share Posted December 4, 2016 Did ABC ever own Ryan's Hope? That crossover--which I completely forgot about, was so badly done. Ron, of course, also made a connection between GH and Loving, which ABC never did own (Nixon's company owned it and The City) and no one seemed to blink an eye, so...

Members DRW50 Posted December 4, 2016 Members Share Posted December 4, 2016 ABC bought the show in 1979. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 4, 2016 Members Share Posted December 4, 2016 Nice to be back! You are one of several posters on here who I have missed. Funny you mention All Her Children--I recently re-read it for a thesis paper I am writing comparing the reception to 1860s Victorian sensation novels and US daytime soap operas in the 1970s-80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 4, 2016 Members Share Posted December 4, 2016 You may enjoy the Danny Hill Youtube channel - a lot of classic audio uploads, including some AW, AMC and OLTL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted December 4, 2016 Author Members Share Posted December 4, 2016 I wouldnt mind The Q's & The Buchanans doing business together at ELQ or even at GH. That way maybe Clint /Viki can come in once and a while. Maybe Bo can consult with Jordan on case. Small arcs but nothing that takes over GH like it did with Todd, Starr and McBain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted December 4, 2016 Members Share Posted December 4, 2016 Aren't majority of those actors retired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted December 5, 2016 Author Members Share Posted December 5, 2016 Erika said she isnt seeking work but would if offered. RSW is but maybe he would do a quick stint. Im not talking long-term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ponds Posted December 5, 2016 Members Share Posted December 5, 2016 Let the dead be! Any attempt to resurrect either soap would be an abomination. Spend the time, money and energy trying to get GH back to its origins. Get rid of the the OLTL & Y&R leftovers on this show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
