Soaps and Advertising

Here is some happy sounding news regarding daytime soaps more specific towards my two babies who have been eliminated by murderer Brian Frons. We know that Prospect Park came in and saved the day by purchasing the licensing for the two shows All My Children and One Life to Live. They stated that it would be most likely internet based and at the time there was not an official home. Well according to press releases a new internet company has been formed titled ...wait for it... The Online Network. It is being put together and they have agreed to host the two shows. What is even better to hear is that they are trying methods that have proven successful on Prime Time and that is by having music and advertising on the show. The Online Network (TOLN) has partnered with Universal Music Group (UMG), the world's leading music company, to license music exclusively from UMG's record and publishing companies to new episodes of ALL MY CHILDREN and ONE LIFE TO LIVE, when both series launch online after their run on ABC ends. The licensing deal with UMG allows TOLN to provide compelling recorded music and songs, and artist cross-promotion and integration, to a powerful new audience. How brilliant bring in advertisers and let that pay for the show. Imagine the possibility! I am looking forward to it.

In other news I am going to give DWTS one more try since Cher is going to be sitting in the audience. Ok Chaz is not the greatest dancer, ok he kind of really sucks but for me its more about the judges being fair and providing constructive critism to all the dancers and not just the ones they liked. I believe Julienne Hough will also be performing tomorrow in a FootLoose dance routine. So that will be nice to see.

Stay Tuned
