Ryan Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Don't get too worked up for Friday because I'm sure we're not going to find out till January.
ste Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 They wouldn't be promoting it this heavily if it was only a dream. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So, we ask ourselves, why would they plug a characters return so heavily if it were only a dream sequence? The answer is this thread itself. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And there's your answer Maybe it's not a dream, but either way they would still be promoting it this heavily. They want people to TUNE IN. That's the *only* point of the promos. They're not obligated to tell the truth, or even hint at what's really going to happen. They'll hint at anything, true or false. As long as it gets people watching. And as long as they don't blatantly lie. They promoted Noah's shooting as the biggest moment in H&A history when it wasn't. They promoted a death when the Sutherlands fell down the mine shaft and they all survived (a random character died). They promoted Scott's "death" when it was just a trick. Your blind faith in the promos as some kind of oracle of truth is kind of sweet.

Ryan Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Eloise actually dies in the week before the Sutherlands fall down the mine (and I still believe she died from exhaustion and not leukemia,
Si-Co Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 They promoted a death when the Sutherlands fell down the mine shaft and they all survived (a random character died). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't remember anyone dying in that storyline, Ste.
ste Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 It must have been Elouise then. Maybe they said something like "a favourite character won't make it" and everyone assumed it was going to be in connection with the up coming mine shaft collapse. Either way... still an example of clever promotion.
Ryan Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Eloise, I'm sure dies in 3641, the mineshaft collapses in 3650.
Ryan Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 http://www.backtothebay.net/multimedia/trailers.shtml I think it's somewhere in this random selection of trailers.
