Prospect Park has been busy securing talent in front of and behind the camera for its relaunch of One Life To Live, which it acquired with All My Children after the soaps were given the boot by ABC Daytime. It also has given its online network a name. All of the deals are pending WGA agreement, which is expected, but the company is being careful not to ruffle any guild feathers on the matter. Here’s the release:
LOS ANGELES, CA – September 30, 2011 – Below is a statement from THE Online Network (TOLN) regarding “One Life to Live.”
Rich Frank and Jeff Kwatinetz of TOLN have confirmed today that a deal is in place for “One Life to Live” Emmy®-winning Head Writer and Consulting Producer Ron Carlivati, subject to a WGA agreement, to continue with the show when it moves online at the beginning of next year. Carlivati has been with the show since 1996 and a head writer since 2007.
Pending a final agreement with AFTRA, additional deals are in place for cast members Melissa Archer (Natalie Buchanan Banks), Kelley Missal (Danielle Rayburn), Sean Ringgold (Shaun Evans), Andrew Trischitta (Jack Manning) and Jerry VerDorn (Clint Buchanan) to join previously announced cast including Ted King, Michael Easton, Kassie DePaiva and Erika Slezak.



Get Roger Howarth and you’re golden!
Thanks for posting this TOLN update on OLTL- made my weekend!!!! Now if only they would bring “Victor” back to life when they relaunch…..
PLEASE YESSSSS Bring Trevor St. John back! Lots more story to tell with his character!
LOL, I was thinking of the old Victor and thought Ewwww. I do not know how his ladies can remember to call him Victor after 8 years of calling him Todd??? Cause I can’t. I hope Starr will be on the new version, she is fantastic.
This is good news as far as seeing the Prospect Park plans actually coming together.
Great news, now get Roger Howarth & Robin Strasser.
Thank you for the announcement TOLN will be hit if you hire most of the cast including Roger Howarth and Robin Strasser.Thanks
The OL news is great, but I need to know what’s happening with AMC signings. Time is running out if they expect to launch in January!
Tonja Walker would be the best BITCH they could come out with as she is beautiful scary funny and so interesting. THAT is who I am waiting for. I am “dorianed out”.Alex has always been my favorite on the show.They need to bring her back for good.
I’m excited about the future for these programs! As long as Roger Howarth is on board, so am I.
If they find a TV network to air the soaps, then I will be thrilled. Otherwise, I will not be able to watch–along with half the audience.
Add a Cable network to air the soaps, Robin Strasser, Ilene Kristen, Kim Zimmer, and Florencia Lozano, and I’m over the moon for OLTL! I truly hope plans for AMC go smoothly as well.
I followed Roger Howarth to ATWT and back to OLTL. I will absolutely follow him to TOLN. I have enjoyed being reacquainted with the residents of Lanview but probably won’t follow without Roger Howarth on board. Get ‘im, PP!
I think that OLTL will have a very cool cult following online. The show is dynamic, campy, funny, and at times very well written. I hope this all works out. Without that Frons lording over every script, the show could be better than ever.
OLTL is the best show on television. Propspect Park needs to get Roger Howarth on board immediately! He is the “headliner”! And while they are at it they need to bring back Robin Strasser and Susan Haskell.
Thrilled that AMC and OLTL will continue. I will watch with whoever signs on.
I love Roger Howarth! I’ve been watching him since his beginning on OLTL. Prospect Park must get him on board. He is truly the best!He is the highlight of the whole show!
I will watch just for Roger, too! He is awesome!
Please bring back Trevor St John to OLTL. He is SO awsome! He is the reason why I watched the show. His character of Victor Lord Jr. would have been so great paired with Roger’s Todd as twin brothers.
Please PP make Trevor a deal he can’t refuse!!
When will Alex be on the air? She has been my favorite for years and I’m watching again because I read she is back.I can’t wait to see Alex is The Best.! Bring her back soon!
If Roger Howarth is not brought back I cant expect anyone to continue watching online. Best actor and character on show. Please!
Watching General Hospital, it looks like Starr is coming leaving and perhaps coming back to her home to be with her friend? I hope so! Her dad along side her to cause problems ofcourse!
