Ok, I know we all know this, but I think I'm coming out of denial --- I can't believe GL is ending. Is anyone else going to pick it up? It can't end.

Read ahead. I haven't heard anything, but they have great posters here that can tell you what they know. I too asked the same question on another post. Let's hope they do have a new home for the show.

Keeping it mellow.

So far I haven't heard anything. Hopefully something gets said within the next week otherwise I'm very sorry to say that the light may be out.

I haven't heared anything yet. I have been going to daytime confidential alot, but no news. I hope it gets picked. If it don't I know that P&G lied about shopping for a new network. So no more pringles and zest soap for me lol.

I don't think they lied, it's just that shopping doesn't necessarily meaning purchasing! I think the low ratings and the expense of putting the show on with all the salaries just isn't appealing enough to networks. It's always about money and the bottom line and I think most networks feel that soaps are a losing proposition not a winning one.

yeah PP you have a point on that one, but I know that P&G had wanted out of the soap business for a long time now. Soaps are not as popular as they used to be, so not too many networks want to invest in one. We will just have to keep our fingers crossed.

Perhaps "CBS", has requested that another network not make a big deal until they cut the deal. That would make sense. CBS has found another show to take GL's placem why would they want us to change the channel?

Perhaps everyone has a few months off to breath. I will say they have only a few wks to bring everything to an end. (if that is what they are going to do)

Let's hope a network picks them up and makes them GREAT!.

If not, they were GREAT!
