Wow.  That is the end of an era.  No more P&G shows.

And, where do the other soaps tape? Are they any left in NYC? Well, we can safely say no more CBS soaps that tape in NYC.

Gotta be a cost cutting measure imho

Wow. While I'm not that surprised that ATWT getting cancelled (it was at the bottom of the ratings, like Guiding Light was last season), this is still pretty big news.

The big question is: is the LMAD experiment successful enough to convince CBS to do more game shows, or will we see the 2 PM ET/1 PM PT slot go back to the affiliates?

I also heard that The Bonnie Hunt show is canceled as well, so there's going to be some slots there for syndication...anyone know when NATPE is?

A NATPE conference is scheduled for late January in Vegas, but in today's marketplace, deals for next year's syndication lineup are set up well in advance.

A daytime Nancy Grace show has already been picked up by 75% of the country.  It will likely be around 90% come NATPE-time.

The only reason Bonnie Hunt even made it to two seasons was because the NBC-owned affiliates agreed to air it for two seasons.  Now that it's gone, NBC Universal Comcast will find something from their production teams to fill the slot for its affiliates, as well as other "Bonnie" stations -- either reruns of Bravo's Real Housewives or the proposed MomLogic, which piloted in NY some time ago with Paula Deen and Kate Gosselin among the co-hosts.

I figured if there were any syndicated game shows in talks, they would have surfaced by now, but I hadn't heard about any syndication-game, talk, sitcom, etc. Other than what James posted re: Nancy Grace, does anyone have any other developments? Not even Broadcasting and Cable mentioned anything.

And even though it allows the Pyramid talks to resurface, I must admit it still sucks to see the two oldest daytime soaps (current, that is) come to an end. GL had 57 years on TV (72 altogether), and ATWT had 53 (54 by its cancellation next fall). However, both shows switched to a similar production style, which has been noted here (mainly by me) as looking like a bad college indie flick. That's no slam on any college students who have produced one; the show made mistakes that even amateurs don't make.

On another note: how is LMaD doing?

Isn't that sort of like matter and anti-matter colliding?  With extra mayonnaise?

The only way I see CBS giving the hour back is if they develop an allergy to money.

Personally (at least in ET), I see stations getting a full hour to themselves at Noon, Young and Restless moving to 1PM ET, and Bold & Beautiful expanding to 60 minutes and moving to 2 PM.

Believe Oprah's people are trying to put together a show for another "Team Oprah" member for fall 2010 -- Nate Berkus.

I also heard of a potential "Doctors" spinoff called "The Lawyers," but talk on that quieted down when the Nancy Grace daytime show appeared.

And as mentioned earlier, MomLogic is also in development.

As far as game shows go, reruns of "Cash Cab" go into off-net syndie in the fall, but that's it.  Haven't heard anything else at the moment.

Confirmed.

The possibility exists if Pyramid gets network pickup that my affiliate could got LMAD/Pyramid/TPIR from 9-noon.
