Subject: Question?

Several people have mentioned about OLTL getting canceled. Has this been mentioned somewhere? Did I miss something while I was out of the loop for a while?

Just curious!

I think the rumor started when TV Guide posted the following on September 28, 2009:

Insider — “One Life will be cancelled next year!”

They’re calling it Brian’s Choice! A network insider confirms what daytimeconfidential.com has been reporting for the last few months. One Life To Live was thisclose to being cancelled. Thankfully, The Aisha Tyler Show tested poorly with focus groups, which bought One Life another year. The ABC Daytime President had to make a “Sophie’s Choice,” and he chose to save All My Children by moving it to L.A. “One Life will be cancelled next year barring a ratings miracle. Frons will most likely move Trevor St. John, Kassie DePaiva, Michael Easton, the Kish boys, and maybe Brandon Buddy and Kristen Alderson to become a part of AMC. He will not merge both shows into two half-hour soaps.” Enjoy One Life while you can, people! With World Turns facing cancellation rumours as well, we may be down to five soaps this time next year.

Here is the link to the article: http://tvguide.ca/Soaps/Nelson_Ratings/Articles/090928_soapgeist_NB

I pray that it doesn't come to this. I wouldn't be able to survive without my Bo and Nora, especially after they finally have reconciled!!!! :(

We don't bring any rumors or anything here from Nelson's site to this board. You can't go by what he says. Unless we see something from a reliable source which Nelson is NOT, we take everything with a grain of salt. And NO rumors are to be posted here.

Hi Cindy,
I wasn't bringing a rumor to the board. Someone mentioned OLTL being cancelled in the previous post and then the question was raised in this post. I was just trying to show where this had all originated from and that it was just that- a RUMOR. And this topic isn't new. It has been raised on several of the soap websites. I only listed the Nelson link, because that is the link that all of the other websites had referred to when discussing this topic.

I apologize. I was just trying to help. I can't remove the post, so I'm going to ask you to. And I promise I will never ever post anything of this nature again!!!

All of that is just talk right now. There is no confirmation anywhere that this will be happening. All the rumors do is start a panic with the viewers that is unnecessary at this point. All you can do is call the comment line or send letters or e-mails to TPTB at ABC to voice your concern or enjoyment with what is going on now.
