OLTL Back In Production! Kassie DePaiva Tweets First Images With Erika Slezak & More!
Courtesy/KassieDePaiva
Today is a historic day for soap operas and for the beloved and iconic series One Life to Live, which was taken from us way before its time when it aired its last episode on January 13, 2012, after ABC made the decision to cancel it while it was on a ratings and creative high.
Now today, production begins anew thanks to the efforts of Prospect Park and all those behind-the-scenes to bring Llanview back to life in their new Connecticut studios!
Kassie DePaiva (Blair) has been our “Johnny-on-the-spot” getting images of this exciting day and tweeting them out to all her followers and One Life fans. The one that struck us the most is pictured here – seeing six-time Daytime Emmy winner Erika Slezak (Viki) returning to the role she loves so much, along with DePaiva.
In addition, there are images of balloons, her on-screen son Andrew Trischitta (Jack) and the younger set: Robert Gorrie (Matthew), Laura Harrier (Destiny), Kelley Missal (Dani), Cordin Bleu (Jeffrey), plus one of new executive producer, Jennifer Pepperman!
What do you think of the images coming out of Llanview today? Excited as we are? Share your thoughts!

I wish them all the luck in the world but it will be an uphill battle.
You get the best LlanVIEW when you go uphill.
so excited to see the pics….I was hoping Kassie was gonna be ‘on duty’….love that her first pic is with Erika….two very classy ladies!!! Welcome Back #OLTL….
Who wouldnt be exicted, except for maybe ABC and Brian Frons!!!
You have a point, JIm, and screw them both.
I have one word for Brian Frons…Idiot!
DITTO!!!!!!! It’s his loss!
OMG this is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO exciting! Thanks Kassie for the pics! Love the one of you and Erika! April 29th can not come fast enough!!!! Long Live One Life to Live and All My Children!!
thank you stars, prospect park and the others who have made this day come true for the fans. we cant wait to see you all again playing our beloved characters.
What a Beautiful, Beautiful, Picture, I am so happy that I soon will be watching One life To Live again.
Me Too!!!!!!!!!
I will be so happy when OLTL is back .
So happy that its back!! I also hope that our Canadian friends will get to watch it too. My cousin who lives in Canada told me that Canadians don’t have access to Hulu, and therefore won’t be able to see either OLTL, or AMC. In a way it won’t be a true celebration, until all fans on either side of the border get to see our beloved shows.
Check the internet, there is a link for Canadians to watch. It was posted earlier.
Im in the u.s. and for some unknown reason cant get hulu, and i even had a computer wiz try but i might get someone else…im not giving up yet.
TELL TOUR COZ TO CK ITUNES
Soo excited that the show is returning. Screw Brian Frons and ABC for turning their backs on this wonderful show.
I agree!
I’m so excited and I’m on vaca in Florida I had to take a down day today just to get on the internet and see whats happening! I wish all the staff, actors the best and can’t wait until April 29th!!
It has been a long time coming!! Can’t wait to see my beloved OLTL on the air again!!
Oh, how I have missed OLTL!!
So did I !!!! Miss OLTL!
I THINK WE IN CANADA WILL BE ABLE TO SEE IT ON ITUNES . I’M ONLY WILLING TO PAY IF TREVOR ST JOHN IS ON,
I will only watch if Prospect Park releases Michael Easton and Kristen Alderson back to ABC and General Hospital!
Oh that is a real mature attitude both of you’s have!
Raise your standards Ms. Caps.
I am so thrilled and I want to thank all involved for bringing our beloved shows back to us! Just could not be any happier! What a glorious day it is! Thanks for the pictures.
Love this pic! So exciting! <3
I’m so excited to know the show coming back. I can’t wait!!!!!!!!
April 29th can not come soon enough! I am so excited that both AMC and OLTL are coming back. Everyone, please, please tune in so that ATWT and GL may come back as well!!
Canadians can you watch it on theonlinetwork.com?
I’m so excited that OLTL is back on air! Ready for April 29th at 12:00 on Hulu!
I am totally excited that all is going back to normal….I have missed One Live to Live that I have watched with my mother when I was a kid…..I am so glad the family is back together.
who says that bringing AMC and OLTL will be an uphill battle? it will only be and uphill battle if the soap fans don’t watch online and I don’t think that’s going to happen! Every person I know that has watched in the past says that they will be watching. Have missed these shows and looking forward to their return… can’t wait for April 29th to get here!!
i am so very happy that one life to live is back.it never should have left WELCOME BACK
I can’t wait to see OLTL!! I missed it so much!! They just need Michael Easton now!
Kassie and Erika are both wonderful actors – I am SO excited for 4/29/13 to get here! – and they are both very nice people. They brought doughnuts and hot cocoa to the fans outside the studio. 🙂
How do you know? Where you there to receive doughnuts & hot cocoa?
Yes I was.
You are so lucky ! How does everyone look in person? How do Kassie & Erika look
face to face? That is a treasured memory!
They are both beautiful in the pic above, but they were all made up ready for filming…so they were extra gorgeous! I was in awe…
Fantastic!
This is great news! I am SOOO looking forward to One Life to Live! Love this show. It comes across as being a real family. I can’t wait to see Bo, Vicki, Cassie and the rest of the cast. I am not sure what the casting departmnent was thinking with the new Destiny but I will give the new actress a fair chance. I hope Prospect Park and GH can work together. I think this would be in the best interest of all of the soaps.
I agree.
Me too!
