I know that TeleNext have their own Youtube page, but it's only up to either late 2007 or early 2008. I personally do most of my viewing of programmes online and the tv is just sat in the corner covering dust these days! I read the article in full and I had to respectfully disagree about their comments re. GL's production model and writing. Yes, GL has had to adapt to the new production model, and the writing just gets better and better, especially with the Otalia storyline. I would love to watch the full programme in it's entirety on the web.<br /><br />And if they want to increase their revenue...they should just get Crystal or Jessica to do the ads..because I'd buy anything they were selling :-)) (I'm sure the demand for peanut butter went up considerably a few weeks back!).Renville68https://www.blogger.com/profile/02200122420293983254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-81963067300324889232009-06-03T12:25:49.200-04:002009-06-03T12:25:49.200-04:00Ooh I forget to add ...

But I watch Guiding Light dvr'd, on YouTube via iPhone and laptop, via TVU, and vicariously through friends' slingbox viewing.

I think you have hit the nail on the head. New Media and diversity along with focusing on good storytelling with a strong vision. <br /><br />Work with the unions to allow paid for downloads of either full shows and couplings so that people can buy the content for use.<br /><br />Drop in some well placed and logical product placements and the genre is bought and paid for!<br /><br />Now if the daytime suits would just wake up and listenChelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09284795159236538447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-12760056912980910092009-06-03T12:15:46.778-04:002009-06-03T12:15:46.778-04:00It certainly does seem like Guiding Light Telenext...It certainly does seem like Guiding Light Telenext have put themselves in the position of leading the way to the next Golden Age of soaps. Let's hope some cable venue sees the potential of this partnership.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01766300327581878838noreply@blogger.com
