NIGHT SHIFT was a huge, huge success. Not just in ratings for SoapNet, but for call-in’s, PR and letters to the studio. So much so, SoapNet is considering a full time 30min show, all year (save a few week hiatus). How does Scrubs work into this? Not sure, no one is sure. I hear some of the recent unhappy campers from GH (not getting storylines) may move over there. I also hear some bigger names may be going as well. They will do double-duty for awhile but slowly, move over to SoapNet. The network recently expanded into a bigger market as well, setting the stage. They’d like to get it “the go to show” for that 18-24 year old set. Does that bode well for vets?

That thought scares me a bit. I guess it would depend on who is not "happy" at the moment. This could end up being just another mob story.
I call the patriarch role for Robert/Tristan!

Ditto...
If NS3 is a mobsters sleaze and glittering hoo-has from hell spin-off, I'll stay away, have no fear, y'all I will stay clear from it, on the other hand if Sri pens it and if, IF Tristan brings Robert back to it, alongside Anna, Robin and baby grand-daughter and IF they're written in character, I'll be there watching, you can bet your bottom dollar on it!

18-24? WHAT?!? What is wrong with TPTB? Let me think a moment... is that who was watching NS2? Not to my understanding. Let's see... the mob crap on GH, ... working? Not so much, so ... so why the heck move the non-working crap to the spot where NS2 worked? Hmmm, I can find no logic in that. What was the demographic for NS2? Who is purchasing DVDs and buying the iTunes epps? Who took time to write/call/email with thank yous and good comments re:NS? 18-24? Can't imagine that.
Pardon, while I bang my head on the wall...

ICAM with both posts Robert bring alot of energy and excitement to any scenes on show he did it on NS2, so it'll be wise to have him and while they're at it bring on a Son for Robert TO PLAY OFF and he could carry on the Scorpio's name, The Scorpios are gold,the best family on daytime.I think they need to bring on more.
What I didn't like about NS2? too much focus on the newbies and not enough on Robert, his scenes was always far and few and very short imo that's the only thing really irked me about NS2.

OH I totally..and I have said for years that a ROBERT JR should pop up someday so as to carry on the Scorpio name...it could easily be done, this is a soap..in fact, Robert was gone for 16 years. So who is to say he didn't 'sow some seed' in that time...
