The Online Network (TOLN) was an online TV and interactive media network. It was founded in 2011 as a division of Prospect Park Productions. On September 27, 2011, it was announced that Prospect Park would produce new episodes of the daytime soap operas ''All My Children'' and ''One Life to Live,'' which would begin to air on TOLN in January 2012. The launch of the network and the relaunch of both programs were delayed several times. 〔("HOLIDAY MIRACLE: Prospect Park Back On Track To Revive ‘All My Children’ & ‘One Life To Live’ After Deals With SAG-AFTRA & DGA" ) from Deadline.com (December 17, 2012)〕 On January 7, 2013, it was confirmed via press release that TOLN would launch and that ''All My Children'' and ''One Life to Live'' would serve as anchor programming. The soap operas premiered with new 30 minute episodes on Hulu, Hulu Plus and iTunes on April 29, 2013.〔('AMC' and 'OLTL' casts revealed at photo shoot ) MSN, March 1, 2013〕 ''All My Children'' and ''One Life to Live'' premiered with new 30 minute episodes on Hulu, Hulu Plus and iTunes on April 29, 2013.〔('AMC' and 'OLTL' casts revealed at photo shoot ) MSN, March 1, 2013〕 On April 18, 2013, Prospect Park filed a $25 million lawsuit against ABC over ''One Life to Live'', alleging ABC failed to honor its part of the licensing agreement. Among the issues named in the lawsuit are allegations of ABC's attempts to sabotage Prospect Park's revival of the soaps by killing off ''One Life to Live'' characters loaned to ''General Hospital'', failure on ABC's part to consult Prospect Park on storylines involving ''One Life to Live'' characters, and claiming that one ''One Life to Live'' character was actually a ''General Hospital'' character.〔(LEGAL SOAP OPERA UPDATE: ABC Calls $25M Prospect Park Suit “Baseless” ) ''Deadline Hollywood'', April 23, 2013〕 On June 6, 2013, production of both shows was halted due to a labor dispute with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees labor union. Production resumed in August, 2013.〔(Prospect Park Halts Production to Soap Operas Over Union Dispute ) ''Enstars'', June 6, 2013〕 In September, it was announced that production of ''All My Children'' and ''One Life to Live'' would be suspended until the lawsuit with ABC was resolved. On November, several ''All My Children'' cast members announced that and that the series had been cancelled again. On March 10, 2014 Prospect Park announced that it had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection while it continued its lawsuit against ABC. TOLN was dissolved later that year. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Online Network」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
