ATWT taping in Philadelphia todayFans are invited to watch the taping and will even get the chance to appear as extras in crowd scenes. The crowd scene will be filmed on location in front of City Hall at the corner of Broad and Market Streets between 1 and 5 p.m.
INTERVIEW: ATWT's Lynn Herring (Audrey)
"I had lunch with Jane Eliot (Tracy, GH) and we discussed how the audience was so articulate about Guiding Light and how much they loved the show and were so sad when it ended, and that on GH, Mafia and bad violence has turned people away. The networks don’t get that our viewers are so intuitive and smart. Even GH people, who had never watched GL and are faithful to their show, understood what it meant to lose a show like that. Daytime is a lot classier than people think, and it hurt to be back on daytime and see what has happened in the genre. I love this genre!"
The mystery behind CO77X in GENERAL HOSPITALWhat is CO77x? or co77x? or c077x? A lot of people were asking that question Wednesday. There were rumors that co77x is an upcoming movie. Some said that it might be a new virus spreading aroud the world. Some bloggers claimed that co77x was deciphered in a graffiti wall. Some even said that it was just a hoax which is similar to Kanye West is Dead and Balloon Boy. Some even find this five letter acronym weird and scandalous.
The answer: CO77X topped the Google trends because this was featured in Tuesday’s GENERAL HOPSITAL episode. Everybody is really curious about the meaning behind that myserious code. GH featured a flashback by Dante where he recalled that he spotted a graffiti on the wall that read co77x. So what is the meaning of co77x? It might be a reference to James Franco’s character seeing that they were childhood buddies.

Re: Lynn Herring interview - It's always nice to hear that some in the industry recognize that soap fans are intelligent and discriminating just like other types of audiences. Lynn Herring, Martha Byrne, Crystal Chappell etal. know what the fans want, probably from interacting and listening to the fans. If the producers of broadcast soaps really wanted to save the genre they should be doing the same. There's a huge untapped market of potential consumers willing to go out of their way to find a good story. Bring a good story and a fan favorite like Lynn Herring to play it and they will come.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the CO77X stuff on GH. I find it intriguing and now I'm even more excited about James Franco joining.
ReplyDeleteKudos to whomever decided to use "mad world" as the "main" song. I prefer the Gary Jules version but it is still a darn good song.
