I believe we also need to help keep the genre alive but we neeed to look at a new model for production. I believe the telenovela for mat could work and not the way MY NETWORK TV did it. They just adapted latin american scripts.
Iam saying hire crews, writers and producers of daytime soaps to helm these. Im sure they have new drama ideas
i see these shows airing in the evening on cable stations
They could air two different ways
they could produce four different soaps and air them air one M-F at like 9 or 10pm for 12 weeks and then the same for the second and then the third and then the fourth soap. All these shows together would produce 240 episodes which is equal to one daytime drama
OR
The cable station could give the soaps a night like Friday and produce 3 soaps and produce 48 episodes each and air them weekly. from 8-11pm Once again the total episodes would be 144 episodes a year and be less than is produced for Daytime Dramas
Depending on how these are filmed, they could in theory film them all in the same studio but just change all the sets. This could help cost since they would only have to pay one Crew however, the producing & writing teams would be different
