Brian Frons Comments On SoapNet Shutting Down.



Head of ABC daytime Brian Frons was interviewed by TVGuide's Michael Logan. In this interview he makes a few interesting comments which are sure to be a good read to all soapfans.

Here is a quick bit from this exclusive interview-

What does the end of SOAPnet mean to the future of the ABC soaps?
We want the fans to know that we remain committed to All My Children, One Life to Live and General Hospital and that this in no way impacts their future. These soaps were on the air 30 to 40 years before SOAPnet came along and they will continue long after SOAPnet ends. ...we can survive without SOAPnet. What has happened here is no surprise.

What’s your forecast for the soaps themselves? Will AMC, OLTL and GH still be here in two years? In five years?
I certainly think they will be here in two years and I certainly hope they’ll be here in five years.

All three?
Yes, all three.
