I care more about Robert S. Woods. Bo Buchannon is a character I miss A LOT!

Just a little too late I just don’t know how they’d pull it off too many have moved on and OLTL is a mess now with the destruction of the end because of some of the actors going to GH and John geez his character has been totatly turned into sleeze not to mention I doubt ME will leave GH to go to PP which makes that huge story go puff! AMC i didn’t watch the last 8yrs or so I don’t know what that wouls in tail but it wasnt messed with on GH so its in better shape……and the actors I doubt they are going to go for it after they were burned.

Would love if this were true but don’t want to get my hopes up to be let down again. :/

Time will tell

I was wondering when the actors reports and probably tweets would start to come out about this PP do over. The plot is thickening. Still on the fence about all of it. Already burned once. I wonder how the actors feel, getting the rgts to both shows, on what channel (hopefully on cable),etc.. will come into play. Sounds like a lot of hurdles, but it would be a great Xmas present and start to the New Year. I’ll remain cautious but fingers crossed.

Thanks Mr. Fairman for keeping us updated.

I think PP is making a mistake trying to revive both soaps at the same time,pick one and see what happens,if enough people watch,then revive the second soap.

I think if Susan Lucci is smart, she will agree to do guest spots on any online version of her old stomping ground. I think for her career, having AMC canceled has been the best thing for her.

Just seems wierd that they are making movement at the last minute here. I want to be excited but I just am so suspicious of PP. I wish they would have given our soaps back to Agnes Nixon for free. IMHO that would have been the right thing for ABC to do. I am sure she would have found a good steward for them. OLTL was the best show ever! I would love to see the casts and crew of these two shows have their jobs again and am very interested to see what will transpire.

What are the odds that the resurrection talk is surfacing now because ABC plans to cancel GH and is hoping to dangle the online option again, like it did through the OLTL & AMC cancellations, only to withdraw after the shows went off the air? I’d love to believe PP has good intentions but after hearing about ABC’s reality GH, I think the ABC execs have no intention of keeping GH on the air and wants to piss off the least amount of viewers it can.

Has anyone from PP commented?

If these rumors of reviving AMC and OLTL are true, that would be the best news ever! However, we soap fans had our hearts broken before, so of course we are very leery about believing anything that PP or ABC/D might say. I don’t doubt that Susan and the other actors are sceptical, too!

Hope this comes to fruition BUT since I don’t want my heart broken again, I’ll believe it when I see it. Until then, I will try to be cautiously optimistic.

Unless somebody has some money hidden in a safe that our politicians can not get to it is not going to happen. Please start living in realville. I know this household has given all it is going to to the takers of this country.

I think we all would love AMC and OLTL to come back – but in good form, not done poorly, professionally and with integrity. I think we all are curious, hopeful but cautiously optimistic considering what happened last time.

First, soap operas while in trouble are still a part of the culture.

Second, yes, they need to secure the big stars – Sleazak and Lucci as they are the heart of the shows like it or not.

Third, which soap to bring back first or either – both at the same time. I see diehards on this web page say OLTL need to be on first though some concerns about the GH crossovers which has ïnfluenced the OLTL history and story scape. Like it or not, desite ABC butchering in the end or dying years of AMC, it is still the much higher “brand”” of the two soaps. Sleazak may be the better actress but Lucci would slaughter her in brand and image. LIkewse Robert Woods versus Walt Willey or David Canary wouldn’t have a chance. It is hard to be objective but tv q rating show the difference. I do not favour either soap but they both should come back and maybe look at a new format and no. of days as people have suggested with a smaller cast that you can relate too.

Fourth, hire good writers and smart ones with relationship oriented stories with a little added drama for escapism. Good sets and clothing sadly help too.

Fifth, rumours are going around this is Prospect Park’s hope to clean up their image – say they are trying to get it on air in some format and blame Lucci if she doesn’t or CAN’T sign on. It could be they are trying to contractually keep their license agreement as suggested or it could be a ploy to blame it all on Lucci. Remember folks she has a contract for Deadly Affairs and Devious Maids. She might not be in the best of positoins to sign another contract for AMC forget about she is getting on in years and may not want too or should not be working so much. Susan will have a lot of pressure and guilt knowing that whether she likes it or not jobs are on line for not only the actors but production employees. There is still a chance Devious Maids will fail but there is already 13 episodes which I don’t think all have been shot as of yet. The other problem Devious Maids is shot in Atlanta, Deadly Affairs New York and AMC is usually LA. Because Lucci is a soap star maybe Deadly affairs and Devious Maids can treat her more like a soap star one show per day and that way she could do more – but it might mean shootling Lucci’s scenes out of sequence ie. she shoots 5 weeks of shows in 5 days..

Sixth, I am pessimistic considering what happened the last time. I can’t see how PP can get all the money. Sure desperate out of worksoap star and production people (the actors could cut their already reduced salaries say in half but that is still a lot of money. I still think Lucci in particular is important for PR – her name sells comparatively (look how people reported PP contacted her – I don’t think Robert S Woods on his own would garner much attention – without Lucci’s name his name wouldn’t have been mentioned I bet that PP had not contacted him. (WAs he joking when he said maybe PP didn’t know how to get hold of him – wouldn’t the union be able to help?)

I sure hope AMC comes back for real this time! They are all such great actors. How about making an All My Children movie also!!!!!! That sounds terrific to me to! I, and all the rest of the fans miss watching every day!
