When are you going to folow in Elizabeth Hubbard's footsteps by playing First Lady Edith Bolling Galt Wilson (1872-1961), first Lady from Dec. 18, 1915 - March 3, 1921? EH won her 2nd Emmy for it. You could win your 3rd.

[Comment From LenoraLenora: ]
Do you think that soaps should move to cable networks? Would that benefit them better?
7:24 Lenora



7:24


Martha Byrne:
The budgets would be cut, but cable would be very happy with the numbers the soaps get
7:24 Martha Byrne



7:25


[Comment From IrishMasonIrishMason: ]
Do you think that network soaps play to the right audience? Do you think their target market is correct? Kin made interesting comments in his interview. Don't worry about hurting my feelings. LOL
7:25 IrishMason

To me I think Kin is right, play for the people who are watching...14 year olds dont watch soaps

[Comment From NoToriousToriNoToriousTori: ]
Hey Martha! If given the opportunity and right conditions, would you move Gotham the Series to a television network or would you keep it on the web?
7:27 NoToriousTori



7:27


Martha Byrne:
I like it on the web, but this is an evolution...no one really knows where these web shows will fall

7:29 Teri



7:29


Martha Byrne:

7:29 Martha Byrne



7:30


[Comment From BrendonBrendon: ]
I noticed someone asked my question about the cable channels, but why would budgets have to be slashed?
7:30 Brendon



7:30


Martha Byrne:
Cable stations don't spend network money because the commercials are cheaper so it is passed on to the shows
7:30 Martha Byrne



7:30

7:33 Martha Byrne



7:33


[Comment From DeidreDeidre: ]
Martha, I just love you. And have to deal with losing you on the show and now ATWT altogether is killing. I was still getting over the loss of Guiding Light when they dropped this bomb on us. But I have you on Gotham so I should be thankful. Is Maura West going to ever join Gotham?

Would love that
7:33 Martha Byrne



7:33

7:33 Alice



7:34


Martha Byrne:
we're working on it. It's a budget as well as a content issue, but the episodes are getting longer
7:34 Martha Byrne



7:34

[Comment From VanessaVanessa: ]
I know you produced a short film with Paul Leyden about a year ago. Do you think you might act in any future independent film projects?
7:34 Vanessa



7:34


Martha Byrne:
I would love that...but I have to say I like it behind the camera.
7:34 Martha Byrne



7:35

[Comment From VanessaVanessa: ]
I am a theatre major and have been hearing lots of advice from professors about committing all my time to my career and to focus on family and stuff later. But being that I'm already married it seems tricky. I was wondering what advice you might have for a starting out, married actor?
7:41 Vanessa

I tell my niece that the web is a great way to write/produce your own projects and show people what you can do. These days you have to do everything.

[Comment From TenaTena: ]
I've been watching you since your 1st day on ATWT and you're a great actress! Always so special. Thanks for the new series. I'm a HUGE Maeve Kinead fan - I even met her once - please tell me she'll be in more episodes!

[Comment From ShirleyShirley: ]
Love you Martha. I love how you are doing your own show trying to rejuvenate this dying genre (thanks to TIIC). Sometimes I wish the soaps over here had backing like the soaps do overseas. For instance, the U.K and their love for Corrie, Eastenders, Emmerdale, and HollyOaks.
7:42 Shirley



7:43


Martha Byrne:
We can learn from the success of those shows. I just read about the show the EH is doing in Holland. The fans weren't watching, so they re-vamped the show
7:43 Martha Byrne



7:43


Martha Byrne:
and their numbers went up..they lisented to the fans
7:43 Martha Byrne

Your eyes are awesome. What mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow do you use? What color lipstick do you wear? You look natural, but always put together great!

[Comment From JaysonJayson: ]
Do you think any of the current soaps on air have been "revamping" themselves or listening to their fans? imho, I think Days has been.




7:50


Martha Byrne:
Days for sure!

[Comment From BeaBea: ]
If ATWT came on three days a week (Mon, Wed, & Fri) and had a 2 week break in the winter like Australian soaps, do you think that could keep the show on the air on another channel?

Yes. Again it's a numbers game

I think it's cool that you think outside the box. It's funny how the majority is afraid to step out and lead. If it hasn't been done, they don't want to be the first. Did you brainstorm with your husband?
