Huge "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" News

Brian Frons, President of the Daytime division of the Disney/ABC Television Group had this to say:

 

"All My Children is one of the most recognizable brands in television, and we are committed to continue telling and enhancing the stories of the residents of Pine Valley. The move to Los Angeles enables both 'All My Children' and 'One Life to Live' to dramatically improve the series production models and achieve significant efficiencies while enhancing each show. We had to examine every option on the table to combat the current economic realities, and rising costs of production, and we are doing it in a way that makes each of our shows stronger."

 

 

How about you, gang? What’s your take on this news?

I think if any one leaves it should be david vickers and stacy. They r both caniving creeps. What I want to no is why they wont listen to us when we ask them to get ried of these ppl. And where is shane? With him being so sick then why are his parents fighting over that b**** Stacy. to bad when she fell down the stairs she didnt just lose the baby then cuz im tired of seein her. I started watching the show when I was a teenager over summer breaks and such What got me to watch it in the first place was kevin and joey. They were hot!! Thein they changed kevin and got rid of joey completelly that just makes no sense. I thinki they should come back and fix some things like david vickers they r cousins. lol that would be hilarious

Moving AMC to CA is an INSULT to all the people associated with the show. ACTORS, TECHNICIANS, AIDES. They have to either lose their jobs or move their families to a state that is in WORSE shape than here in the East and has lousy work ethics compared to here. This is almost as bad as moving the jobs to another country.

DO NOT move the soaps to CA. I have been watching AMC since the start and did watch OLTL for a long time.

This disgusts me totally. What a poor and NASTY business decision - hey maybe the ABC big shots should lose their incomes, houses, friends, and family and then they might understand the hardships

I am sure moving to LA may be difficult for Susan & David and maybe they will want out of their contracts. I hope that is not the case. It may cause alot of changes in the cast, but hopefully for the best. I wish them all well in this newest challenge for the program.

I love AMC and especially the idea moving them on west coast. The Agnes Nixon creation will obtain new horizons and new production lines. I think this is great news. But i am a bit mad with some web sites fighting against AMc. Ok people you support GH but we the fans of AMC are equaly a lot and we are not going to abandon our favorite soap.

I have been watching AMC since I was about 7yrs old and I have had the pleasure of running in to some of the actors and actresses over the years since I use to work at 63rd and West End Ave. I am kind of saddened that you are moving and I wish all the best to the whole staff. I hope and pray that all goes well. Good luck!

I think the move to Ca. is wonderful. Come on fans don't be so hard on ABC at least we will still have the show to enjoy. It doesn't matter where they tape it as long as it is on. Lighten up and just enjoy.

I think moving AMC to CA is a really bad idea. And how will it affect real life couple Thorsten Kaye (Zach on AMC) and Susan Haskell (Marty on OLTL)? The soaps will either lose one of the other or both due to this move. How would you like your significant other/co-parent to your children living on the opposite side of the country?
