Put it on in The Revolution’s time slot. At least someone will be watching ABC then, for a change. I hope Roth attends, and that One Life to Live wins emmy after emmy after emmy. He probably doesn’t have the good grace to hang his head in shame.
Brilliant! but I think it’s a two hour show usually – it’s usually on at night, so anytime on ABC at night would be good, cuz no one is watching anything else on ABC! ha! seriously, ABC, CBS or NBC (do they still have soaps?) would be good. I agree that an award show for TV shows should be on TV .. duh! If it’s on the web, a lot of people wouldn’t be able to watch it — namely me! And if they’re going to have specials for AMC and One Life to Live I want to be able… Read more »
Christy,A very long time ago ,werent the emmys on in the daytime?or Am i thinking of the soap opera awards ,what has become of that award show?Your right about no one watching abc in those 2 time slots,so it would be perfect ,as long as it isnt anything like the awards last year, that was a joke and it was on cbs,I will never forget it worst emmys ever.
sorry it took so long… yes the daytime tv awards used to be on during the daytime, but changed to night time in 1991. there have been a few award shows dedicated just to soap opera, think the first was in 1974. Soap Opera Digest used to have one too but it was a bit erratic… I read that they didn’t give out any awards in 2002 or 2004, don’t know why, and as of 2005 they started doing the awards entirely in their magazine. Usually what seems to be an award show for the soaps is at the end… Read more »
Better yet put it on in the Spew and the Revulsions time slot!!! Or even better yet put it on a better network than ABC… one who cares more about the genre! Then let it get on Hulu!!!
I guess I would give in and watch it on abc/disney/the rat channel.Id rather see it anywhere but that network,It sure would bring up the ratings for that day ,the chew and the revolution was a very bad Idea for the mouse kingdom.
I think the whole thing stinks,seems us soap fans keep loosing everything,all my children, one life to live, soapnet, general hospital may get cancelled and now we cant watch the emmys ,Is it because we are down to 4 soaps ?so why bother .what ever the reason they should be televised somewhere ,Its the last year all my children and one life to live will have any chances of winning,I feel bad that I cant watch ,as long as it isnt done like last years which was the worse I ever saw, lets hope between now and june 23rd someone… Read more »
yeah, isn’t there any soap fan/media moguls out there to produce the awards show?? Doesn’t Ted Turner have a thing for Viki Buchanon? 😉 😉 Or Donald Trump? How about Oprah or Martha Stewart? Oh heck, how about Spielberg or JJ Abrams or James Cameron, or many, many others out there?
there has to be someone capable of doing this, not just wait around for ABCDuh, CBS or NBS to do it on their own.
In regards to Greg Meng, I wish he could see that we viewers would love the show to be on television BUT never disregard the web.
I would prefer to see the awards on TV but if that isn’t going to work then I want to see it on the web..
Either way we have to see it ,what a shame if it isnt on tv,the web is better then no emmys at all.
I remember when the event was televised live from new York City during the day. Lovely. The primetime telecasts were good, too, up until the last three years… the Vegas debacles! I would rather have something untelevised but covered well instead of a lame Vegas circus.
OK I cant keep quiet about Peter bergmans comment any longer,Loved you with cliff and nina back in the day in pine valley,But us soap fans we want to see our favorite soap stars win the big award ,we dont want to hear about it the next day.So it may have been nice for you it wont be nice for us.
Here’s an idea. How about Oprah’s OWN picking up the broadcast. From what I understand, her network is not doing too well. It could use a “shot in the arm”.
That’s a GREAT idea…! Tweet it to her.
GO AHEAD!
DONE,I left a little message to her at one of her facebook pages,Its up to her now ,It would be a good Idea for her to show the emmys.and throw in a good word about all my children one life to live and agnus nixon.We should all drop her a line and let her know the emmys will be on june 23rd so there is time for her to do something and possibly save her own network.
Good Idea judy,I went to her facebook page one of them and asked for her help.
Thanks! I’ll do the same. Maybe if enough of us soap fans contact Oprah, we’ll get some results.
The show should be televised on Daytime television to HONOR, All My Children, and One Life To Live for it’s final reception and the last of the attention that those shows will get on Daytime television, history. Just as when the other soaps went off air, they were honored and reflected on-on Daytime television for their final awards ceremony.
I agree! should be on TV!
