Soap Springs Eternal: ALL MY CHILDREN, ONE LIFE TO LIVE and the sweetly human act of caring about fictional characters
"TV has gotten more sophisticated since daytime was popular, and we have gotten more sophisticated in our viewing habits, but deep concern for fictitious human beings is still a major part of the TV-watching experience. This is another thing that soap operas bequeathed us: intimate, long-term relationships with make-believe people. We may mock the soap-opera watcher for her bad taste, but we and our good taste spend an awful lot of time dissecting the psychology of Omar Little, imagining Carrie Mathison’s future, obsessing about Don Draper’s past. Soap operas remind me that I’m lucky TV has gotten better—not because I wouldn’t have watched and cared if it were bad, but because I would have watched and cared anyway. Lesser stories are still stories. In the heart of most snobs is also someone who just wants to know what happens next. I wish AMC and OLTL luck on their space flight."

CBS chief: Hard for THE GOOD WIFE to beat GAME OF THRONES at Emmys
“I don’t think we’re the bastard child of the entertainment business,” the CBS chief said, though later he seemed to sympathize with the overall point Greenblatt was making: “They’re competing against some phenomenal programs,” he said. “It’s hard to put THE GOOD WIFE up against GAME OF THRONES. It probably costs three times as much [to make and is given] three times as long to shoot. It’s a brilliant show and I love it as much as anyone. [But cable shows] get a lot more attention for a lot fewer numbers.”

Emmy Nominee Carrie Preston Poised to Return in Season 5 of THE GOOD WIFE
Fresh off her long-overdue Emmy nomination for playing Elsbeth Tascioni, Preston is nearing a deal to return to the CBS drama in Season 5. To date, she has appeared in nine episodes.
