Calavarti
(HW-GH)

Samms (Holly). Is Emma returning to usher her son Ethan out of Port Charles,
if the talented Nathan Parsons decides not to resign?
It
has been confirmed that Hillary B. Smith
(ex-Nora, OLTL) will be joining the Bold & The Beautiful at CBS in
the new role of a sex therapist. The news comes just hours after ONE
The purpose of this group is simple!
Prospect Park and ABC/Disney are holding the legacies of Agnes Nixon hostage.
Through a so-called “agreement” with ABC, Prospect Park claimed to have the
intention to produce AMC & OLTL on a new platform. The day before Thanksgiving,
PP pulled the plug on OLTL following the pulling of the AMC plug weeks prior.
While soap fan sentiment continues to grow one thing is clear – Prospect Park is
looking for a way to capitalize on their claim to have the rights to both shows.
ABC/Disney made Prospect Park their scapegoat. They cut a questionable deal with
Disney “insiders” just to take the heat off ABC. Sorry, Disney, this doesn’t cut
it. In the end, all roads lead directly back to Robert Iger’s desk. PP wanted to
place these shows online so they could decimate actor salaries in favor of a
“new medium” for the shows while knowing full well they would rebroadcast the
shows on a cable network. They used WGA as the excuse to shelving the shows.
We’ve seen the WGA and AFTRA responses. The “union” buzz words used by PP aren’t
working out as PP expected. All My Children and One Life to Live are a living
part of the American culture! Yes, they are expensive to produce. Yes, the
audience seems as if it is dwindling. The truth is the networks have used
Nielsen ratings paradigms as another scapegoat to create cheap, shoddy
programming not worthy of our time or attention. DEMAND BETTER! We’re
asking soap fans to come together and Stand With Agnes Nixon! We are no longer
“ugly ducklings”. We are SWANs! We can’t sit idly by and watch PP and ABC/Disney
hold an 84 year old woman’s legacies hostage any longer! Agnes Nixon deserves
better than she has received! These shows have brought joy to millions of
viewers. We owe Ms. Nixon for all she has done for the genre! So, please, join
the cause. Stand With Agnes Nixon! Help us insure her legacies continue. Please
