Topic: If ONTL and AMC take off on the internet, do you think GL could be resurrected?

Additional Comments: I was just wondering - if these two soaps do well on the internet, do you think there could be the slightest chance of resurrecting GL and/or ATWT? Or have too many of the actors/actresses gone to other soaps? Just a thought.

Like Fee said, I believe P&G would have to approve that.  I know a number of the actors tried their best to keep the show alive.  They said as much at the fan gathering at the Goodbye Springfield tour, I went to here in Pittsburgh, a year ago.  Sad.

It won't be, Mama! Not because they couldn't do it or it wouldn't work, or the actors. But because P&G would have to approve it, and there's no way they would. They hate soaps and they hate soap fans. They've proved that over and over again. And they hate GL fans more than any other fans. Fortunately, ABC saw that they could make some money while getting rid of the shows at the same time. P&G knew they could do that, too, but they refused. I HATE P&G!!!! I DO however, LOVE OLTL! Haven't watched AMC, so can't say on that one. But I will follow OLTL anywhere, and I would pay to watch it, just as I would have paid to see GL. I can't believe how great OLTL is, and how much it reminds me of GL back when it was a great show. fee

  • OLTL SUCKED, it sucked since around late 2003. Stopped watching completely when they canned Catherine Hickland, killed off Renee Goldsberry's Evangeline, yet kept the vastly overrated Farrah Fath and John Paul Lavoisier and their loathsome beast characters.
