'Tainted Dreams' Coming to Amazon on December 26 (Video)

Sonia Blangiardo's much-anticipated web series Tainted Dreams will finally be available to stream beginning December 26, and for free on Amazon Video (ad-free for Prime members; with short promotional breaks for non-subscribers).

Tainted Dreams follows the lives of the cast and crew of fictional soap opera Painted Dreams. Creator and Executive Producer, Blangiardo calls it "a soap within a soap...it's like Grey's Anatomy set in a soap production studio instead of a hospital."

Blangiardo has served as a producer/director on five soaps, including All My Children, One Life to Live, As the World Turns, General Hospital, and currently Days of Our Lives.

The show features an all-star cast which includes Alicia Minshew (All My Children), Terri Ivens (All My Children), Grant Aleksander (Guiding Light), Kelley Menighan Hensley (As the World Turns), Walt Willey (All My Children), Bobbie Eakes (All My Children), Natalia Livingston (General Hospital), Marnie Schulenburg (As the World Turns), Michael Lowry (All My Children), Austin Peck (Days of our Lives), Colleen Zenk (As the World Turns), the late great Larkin Malloy (The Edge of Night), Nathan Purdee (The Young and the Restless), Tonja Walker (One Life to Live), James DePaiva (One Life to Live), Ilene Kristen (Ryan's Hope), Dina Manzo (Real Housewives of New Jersey), Anthony Wilkinson ("My Big Gay Italian Wedding" and the new "My Big Gay Italian Funeral), Lisa Marie Varon (Impact Wrestling) and “Mr. PEC-Tacular” Jessie Godderz (Impact Wrestling, Big Brother).

'Surving Sam' Picked Up for Series by TVtibi, Stars Alicia Minshew, Rob Magnotti

Surviving Sam, starring Rob Magnotti and Beacon Hill/All My Children actress Alicia Minshew, has been picked up for series, according a message on the show's Facebook page.

"We are thrilled to announce that TVtibi, a new TV Everywhere channel launching this summer has picked up Surviving Sam for series."

What's in the Gallo residence? Answer: An ex-wife, two children, one dog, two cats, a revolving door of boyfriends for said ex-wife, and a lifetime supply of antibacterial hand gel. This is the journey of Benjamin (Magnotti) and Samantha (Minshew) Gallo beginning with their divorce and ending who knows where. Samantha is a no holds barred high maintenance woman tolerating her OCD ex-husband to raise their 2 children. Ben is trying to survive the storm. It's a cutting edge look into a relationship in ruins tied together by family obligations and residual feelings for one another. A glimpse into the absurdity of love and the range of emotions controlled by it's power.
