OWN Orders New Soap Opera To Series!
27
I know Jamey has worked hard so kudos to him he will be missed at DC he made me laugh hysterically but he deserves this!
He proved you work hard you can live your dream!!!
Time will tell…the best primetime soap was Peyton Place with Knots Landing a close tie…also liked Dynasty and Dallas-the originals!!!!…did watch Empire for some time but lost interest!!!
Never saw Peyton Place the soap-loved the Movie with Lana Turner. Wish they would re-run Peyton Place-and the other classic soaps. Loved Knots-also Falcon Crest was delightful.
Jim really!! How old sre you?? Lol??? Peyton Place??
Jovin there’s a lot of us old fuddy duddy diehard’s still hanging about. LOL. I was 7 when One Life To Live started and 8 when All My Children began. Our father worked days, our nurse mother worked nights. During the summer it was watch her stories or go outside. I chose the soaps and haven’t looked back. My aunt and uncle used to argue over how true to the novels Peyton Place was. And if you were visiting one of three other aunts you ran the range from ABC to CBS to NBC.
maybe.
Good for Jamey!
And
Good for us!
Do not know where else to post this but we lost a First Lady yesterday Barbara Bush I read President Obamas remarks they were very gracious do you think maybe we might just stop with the hate on both sides just for once and try to come together as a nation their have been many Presidrnts that I have not agreeded with but maybe we might try to just for a day stop the hate. If we do not we are going to be lost as a nation let’s quit yelling at each other and try to find solutions for… Read more »
We also lost Harry Anderson-star of 80s sitcom Night Court…
There was another “coincidence” the same time of Barbara Bush’s passing. I wonder, is the universe telling us something? The British were celebrating the 92 birthday of Queen Elizabeth. You may not agree with some of their politics or decisions, but here were two women about the same age, both having grace, dignity, love for their family and country, and having adapted to changes throughout their lives. You won’t see many of their kind again.
Thought I should add re the comment ” You won’t see many of their kind again.” With Barbara and the Queen I meant persons like them that were brought into the public/political arena by circumstance or lineage who became good role models. But I’m sure many of us have those in our own lives to whom we can say the same things. I know I can. But wonder how they would adapt to many of the changes if they were here now. Hard enough for us who are here now. Sometimes a lot of culture shock here in micro seconds.
It is Not a soap opera,, It is simply another series with a continuing story which is the same as all the other tv series with a continuing story all considered to be soapy by continuation. * OWN is not a big enough network to create and maintain a soap opera. A soap airs daily– – series air once weekly with a set amount of episodes per season. IF, OWN could maintain a daily soap it would have taken on AMC or OLTL that came with a huge ready to go following (and still has its’ audience) ”Ambition” is simply… Read more »
su0000, simply, you’ve nailed it!
In your remarks here and the remarks below regarding the current status of soap boards…
No! Not all soap operas air daily… Primetime Soaps have been around for quite sometime and were even featured in SOD in their heyday! That being said this does sound more like a soapy continuing drama NOT a Soap Opera! The fact that the network even stops short of calling it a soap speaks volumes!
I hope Oprah knows what she’s doing and that Jamey Giddens is a much better writer and producer than he is a co-host of Daytime Confidential’s podcast. I always support Oprah and her network though so will give it a chance despite the often obnoxious, aggressive, talk-over-your-cohosts petty critiques I have heard from Jamey on DC in the past. I have heard enough of his podcasts to know the ideas he pitched on there were not my taste. They were often of the Carlavati-inspired school of soap.
Wow, congrats to Jamey Giddens. That’s probably why he’s not as active in Daytime Confidential lately.
hi James .. All the soap boards are failing.. We, checked out the soap boards this weekend, a look-see to check out the situations All were quite absent from posters and enthusiasm. The big posting board around the corner is the same old speak.. It’s referred to as – Groupthink . Same people posting their carbon copy remarks, it seems to be the same group, mainly for the past decades. Even here, my favourite place .. It used to be updated 3 times a day, now once every 1-2 days, usually. Why?? there is no new news to get excited… Read more »
Hi Su- I am thinking the reason things here are not updated so often is Fairman is busy with launching his new site, plus the emmys nest weekend is a huge amount of work and planning-and often he is involved in the production end of the program. I don’t know what the big posting board around the corner is? This is my favorite place-the scoops are always 100 per cent true and accurate and way sick of those sites that put out totally false or misleading soap news or lure you in with clickbait titles and then nothing. Hate that.… Read more »
Hi Phyllis, I totally agree with you
Im hoping we get some veterans fromOLTL and or AMC/GL. Also, kinda of hoping for a priest! I know, a bit weird but love the idea of havinf somebody know all the secrest via confession!
Thanks, Oprah.
No.Winfrey stated that ‘there is no money in soap operas’ when she was previously asked to produce the now defunct One Life to Live and All My Children.
Yep; that was my first thought!
I can’t take on another soap, but good luck!
Good for him can’t wait and i’m sure Jamey will be casting some of our daytime faves
It is Not a soap opera unless it airs 5 days a week.
If it is a once a week then it’s simply another ‘continuing series’
A real genuine soap opera, it will not be.
but- it’s worth a look-see..

According to Deadline, The royal couple filmed their cameo roles back in March.
EastEnders cast member, Kellie Bright, who plays pub owner Linda Carter, and appears in the key scenes, shared on Charles and Camilla adventure on to the soap: “They didn’t really know what to expect. I mean, it must have been nerve-wracking for them and completely out of their norm. So I just hope they enjoyed it as much as we did.”
The series EP Chris Crenshaw stated: “It was an extremely special day that will go down in EastEnders‘ history.”
So, what do you think of the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall making an appearance on the popular soap? Comment below.
