I didn't know that about LIAMST. Yeah, your right about Days. Wasn't it Laura ? I remember someone said they showed her pearls break and spill on the ground. Bill Bell wrote that storyline too.

I have read that Chris Brooks rape on Y&R in 1973 was shockingly graphic and violent for daytime TV. Anthony Geary played her rapist George Curtis.

All the soap reference books list ATWT and EON as the first half hour soaps. They don't get into which aired first, which seems moot to me. They were both P&G shows and launched on the same day. For my money they should jointly share the honor as first half hour soaps.

Was GH the first official summer in the run storyline with Luke & Laura?

Did anyone mention Katherine getting a facelift on camera on Y&R?

Or the famous Nixon storyline on Guiding Light where Bert had a cancer scare? I've read that was the first medical storyline (minus birth and death).
