UUUUGGGHHHHH WHY???????!!!!!!

Well, if it is good people may watch it instead of their soap.. lol

It is now proving that our once beloved weekday daytime tv line up is now officially dead, the three original major networks NBC ABC CBS has yet to realize that people want soaps and not talk shows and now this right this minute video show which comes on in my tv market replacing Oprah once she went off the air. I don’t understand why can’t these networks makes and create two 30min soap operas film in NY or outside of NY use as many former actors and actress from Another World, As the world turns, guiding light, all my children, one life to live, I truly believe that these networks ratings would go back up if one if not all of them produce two 30min soap opera shows.

Yawn, we want soaps and that’s all!

Boy, rush right in, anything but a soap! How stupid. This will Fail immediately. The concept is geared towards the 16-25 age bracket and I got news for you, teenagers barely watch daytime and once they go off to college they woudl never tune in to ABC to get their “Right this Minute” news/gossip! Its called TMZ, Twitter and Facebook and it is at their fingertips ALL the time. Dumb, dumb, dumb! SIXTH YEAR on air? I’m a TV buff and I never heard of it? Oh, and if any of these people pictured walked into the supermarket I wouldnt even know they were on TV!

Pathetic. A televised Facebook. ABC should just break down and do just what PP was trying to do and come up with two 30 minute inexpensive soaps. This show will fail too. See, we have iphones that can do this. That’s why people are running from cable and networks, they simply don’t give us what we want.

Will ABC/D ever disclose the miilions they spent on coming up with these lifestyle/talk show concepts?

so I guess a Ron C soap focusing on the children of AMC and OLTL icons kids aint happening!?!
i had hoped for an ALL MY LIFE TO LIVE type soap
focusing on Kendall, Bianca, JR, Natalie, Jessica, Kevin, Joey, Mathew, Cassie, Langston and Star
then their parents could be supporting players

Well I have been working on my reality show idea for a while and by the sounds it, its time may have come— I am going to place a video camera on my lawn and just let it film whatever happens. I know it’s brilliant. What is more exciting than watching grass grow right? I’m surprise no else has come with it— and of course there is the drama of when or if my dog might pee on the camera to really sell the show. I think I could get millions for this idea because it is obviously networks will put on anything as long it isn’t a soap. Of course there will be the sequel — the video camera facing the freshly painted wall in my living room, because watching paint dry is a nail biter.

Sigh. Doesn’t every morning show and off-hour newscast include “caught on camera” and “gone viral” segments already? And usually the same ones across the programs? And it looks like there is a group of people around a table, too, to talk endlessly about the clips. Again, sigh.

what a bunch of dumbasses at ABC……this will be, yet, another failed show……so sad….what will it take to get anyone to listen over at ABC????? Viewers don’t want this when, like stated above, we can get this on Facebook, twitter…just produce a 30 minute daytime drama…..start out small, see how many viewers you’d get and watch as smiles get plastered all across America and ABCs ratings go up and up….keep putting lame ass shows in this time slot and eventually, ABC will no longer exist…..

Still won’t tempt me to watch anything on ABC except for GH!!!!!!

If it’s like the one I’ve seen aired in my market…UGH! Shows no respect for loyal soap viewers over the years. And if cheaper production costs are a goal…well they got CHEAP!

this is dumb. i don’t see middle age women wanting to watch viral videos.

From bad (FabLife) to worse.

What is wrong with ABC, NO NO NO! Listen to your viewers, you guys just don’t get it.

I smell another massive failure.

OK.. this funny !!!!

——— RightThisMinute’s shows a day and two half-hour shows for the weekend, 52 weeks a year, in a Phoenix building turned into a TV studio.

—“I don’t think anyone in TV syndication does that,”—– said Phil Alvidrez, RightThisMinute’s executive in charge of production and a former KTVK-TV Channel 3 news director.————

Besides the show’s fast expansion, it also has been beating top TV shows in the ratings. For example, on Sept. 6, RightThisMinute was the most-watched show all day on Channel 3, 5 and 15 locally for viewers 25-54 years old, according to Nielsen ratings. It regularly beats shows such as the Ellen DeGeneres Show, Dr. Oz Show and Katie Couric’s show in some markets.

NEW YORK (AP) — “Right This Minute” wants to save you time — the minutes and hours you might spend trolling the Internet for interesting new videos in a search you could never hope to get ahead of.

Instead, “Right This Minute” invites you to tear your eyes from your browser for this syndicated TV show (which, available in more than 90 percent of the United States, airs weekdays in two 30-minute blocks; check local listings).

Its mission: to unearth interesting stuff.

“We want to find a great video before 3 million people have seen it. We want to find it when 32 people have seen it,” says Beth Troutman, one of the show’s team of five co-hosts. “Then we add the journalism aspect: We don’t just show the video and laugh and point. We actually talk about the story and people behind it.”

“What we’ve tried to do is bridge the daytime TV audience with the hardcore I’m-on-YouTube-all-the-time world,” says Phil Alvidrez, “RTM” executive in charge of production.

The brisk format is simple: Hosts convene to share with one another (and the audience) videos they like, none of which their fellow panelists have seen until then.

Each of these laptop-equipped curators comes to the table having logged time plundering the web’s nooks and crannies — their efforts bolstered by a round-the-clock team of e-jays (as in “e-journalists”) — while also digging into details of who made a chosen video and why.

“We found a video where a baby cried when the mother sang to her,” says Alvidrez. “This one beautiful song elicited one particular reaction, and the dad picked up his camera and posted the video for friends. They never intended to be YouTube stars.”

Not only did “Right This Minute” bring this video to light before it went viral, he says, “but nobody else called the father except us. We like to find out, What were they thinking? Why would they do that? Who are they? Where?

“Even if a video is already well-known, you might learn something about it on our show that you wouldn’t have learned otherwise.”

Quietly tucked away in Phoenix, “RTM” is flourishing in its fourth season, averaging 6.6 million viewers per week and beating such stalwarts as “Dr. Oz” and “Rachael Ray” in household ratings.

“When you consider that there’s 100 hours of video being uploaded every minute onto YouTube, it’s a pretty big universe to try to make a splash in,” he adds. “RTM” is seeking splash-worthy videos. (And it welcomes viewers’ video submissions on its website.)

I dont watch abc. This is perfect for them. Cheap crap

I can surf the net and find viral videos all on my own thanks. I will end my post in my usual way….ONE LIFE TO LIVE V3 PLEASE.

Just another reason why GH is not going anywhere. Every other new protect that ABC daytime has tried to develop since they got rid of OLTL has flopped in record time. The Revolution bombed out, as did the Katie Couric show, and now Fablife.

The View just had their least watched year ever and the show is a mess cause of the constant turnover in the panel while the Chew is a lousy lead-in for GH. ABC daytime is an absolute mess right now and the fact that GH can still draw three million viewers in a week is pretty impressive given the show lineup that preceeds it.

Bring back OLTL with Bo, Nora, Clint, and Vicky as the anchors. Easton, Archer, DePavia, and Alderson are all free to return as John, Natalie, Blair, and Starr. ABC needs to do whatever it takes to get OLTL back from PP.

So stuff culled from the internet that’s slapped on TV. Yeah, that’s so original.

OMG! My brain hurts just thinking about the lowest common denominator these idiots had to select in putting this show on as a replacement! God forbid they do a variation of a soap. Fools! This will be gone within the year.

Why can’t TPTB listen to what the daytime audience wants? Why can’t they create a show that is sort of a hybrid of all the soaps that are off the air? I can’t help thinking that if they put together a show that ran old soaps in 13-week cycles that they’s find which ones people really want back on the air and capitalize on that; not these insipid shows they keep putting on air. Give us our soaps!

Do people watch this? I am so tired of videos on TV–it’s too much. I watch a few here and there on the computer, but I choose them and if I don’t like them, I can turn it off. I’m certainly not going to watch this show. Whatev.

enough is enough…. abc – what are you thinking… you are ignoring what is right under your nose. soaps will help you restore your daytime lineup, this”right to this minute” will encourage everyone to abandon their tv and use their laptop and tablets and totally eliminate abc from their day…..

oh well I guess this is how the folks on the ‘Titanic” felt when the band kept playing …as they sunk deeper and deeper.

OMG. Fire everyone at ABC.

The problem is that soaps are just not as profitable as they used to be. Its not because of the viewership because Y&R is actually the highest viewed show in daytime. All other soaps have more viewers than most of the other daytime shows.

However, soaps are more expensive to produce so they make less money than those other talk shows, regardless of viewers. Even if this new show gets half or a quarter of the viewers of any of the soaps, it will still make twice as much money because it costs nothing to produce. One set with 5 or 6 hosts who probably make less than a newbie soap star?

I think they should start replaying popular soaps that have gone off the air like Another World or Santa Barbara or Ryan’s Hope like other syndicated shows. Costs would be minimal and they would probably get the same viewership of a talk show so it would be profitable.

Does this mean ABC/D are losing money in that time slot? If so, they deserve it.

Another one bites the dust!!!!! You still don’t get it, ABC/Disney? That’s ok! We’ve got more. Just keep ’em coming and we’ll keep doin’ it. ALL MY CHILDREN AND ONE LIFE TO LIVE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! boom boom boom – another one bites the dust – and another one gone and another one gone – another one bites the dust – boom boom BOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This currently airs at 4:00 am on my NBC affiliate.

H-u-h?!?!? OK…you know what??? VH-1 Classic’s Morning Video Block and (my personal FAVE!!!!!) Totally ’80s is basically video enough for me!!!!! Furthermore, if I wanna watch something else video-themed (or whatever), I’ll watch it on YouTube or I’ll watch America’s Funniest Home Videos on Sunday nights. As for this Right This Minute junk-fest…n-o-p-e. Pass. Next……….

put any soap back on please no viral video another failure for abc

Sounds like “The Daily Share” that replaced News on the HeadLine News network in the afternoons. As has been said…cheap crap.

Not another panel of people. Pick up a comedy show!

Right this minute is the most stupid show I have ever seen

I felt fab life was so fake and the cast was also fake and impersonal. The Chew is successful because they have a great rapport and seem to genuinely love each other. I have nothing against someone gay, but the one guy was over the top. They also seemed to have no domestic or cooking skills. They just seemed so dumb. I wanted to smack them all the time for their stupidity. Good luck guys but this was not your calling.
