Members DRW50 Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Logan seems to have mixed views on rape (he agreed with those who defended GH turning Jax's rape into a hahafest), so that may explain the placement. The PC vampire story was a shock value moment, and attached to a soap (GH, since they brought that crap over this year) he is always a big fan of, so that would probably explain it. I do think the initial moment was good, before Michael Easton stopped caring (after about three months), but I wouldn't have put it on the list.

Members Eric83 Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Vincent getting pregnant by Julian is on the list?! Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Wait...what did AMC do? (CBS girl here.) These lists are all kinds of bogus---and definitely one that doesn't include "Hello, Barbara". As per usual, there's a heavy ABC/DOOL focus. GMAB.

Members DRW50 Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 On AMC in the early or mid 70s, Margo Flax had a facelift, as the actress (Eileen Lechtworth) had one in real life. I don't think we saw her in surgery, as we did with Katherine, but they showed her afterward. I do think Katherine's was a bigger moment in soap history, but not something I'd have put on the list for Katherine. I agree that more P&G should have been there. It seems like it's a list of shock value as much as actual quality. Stuff like Vincent is what caused viewers to flee soaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 To me a list like this isn't just the greatest moments, but the most memorable and some memorable moments are rather insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 I don't find Ridge's paternity a particularly engaging or memorable moment. It just got a shoulder shrug from me. It's not like it was discovered that Ridge had Spectra roots or something...the Marrone's weren't a huge deal. Had Massimo been on the show for 4 or 5 years or at the beginning like Bill Spencer or early on like Sally Spectra, it might have had more impact. As the story played out, it didn't seem particularly stand-out from where I was watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Sure was! I remember the cutting edge ad campaign touting Laura's return. "I dream of Genie With The Light Brown Hair" was tearing up the charts and GH scored a major coup when it got it for the show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members teplin Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Me too -- though Rachel killing Janice should have outranked it. I can also think of a number of AW moments that should have made the list instead of Ryan & Vicky reuniting in heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members allmc2008 Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 I am shocked they mentioned any before 1990 let alone TSS/SFT/RH. I was expecting the Oldest Clip to be L&L's Wedding. I am very surprised SFT was mentioned!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jam6242 Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 I think I saw a little over half of these in real time. Some I agree with, some not. Too much Reilly for me, except the one from him I actually liked---Vivian burying Carly alive! I was pleasantly surprised to see Doug eloping with Addie on the list. Don't hear that one referenced very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 1.Luke & Laura's wedding-GH 1981 (Laiman/Racina) 59. Luke rapes Laura-GH 1979 (Marland) This just proves to me what a hack writer Laiman really is/was...marry your rapist...ugh...even though the ratings were the highest for any soap.

Members EnglishTea Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 I'm sorry but Brooke discovering Laura's death on All My Children is one of the most classic moments of this show, and it certainly ranks over Erica's over-the-top throwing herself on Mona's grave.
