DAY'S Arleen Sorkin has passed away at the age of 67
Thanks everyone for the other obituaries and articles which went into more detail than the more hollowed out infotainment sites provide. I never knew about her helping her father get an idea made into a HBO movie.

You're right. I think Carolee said she ad-libbed much of it, like the conversations with her mother.

Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)
I don't really want to post the video link all over the board, as I already have twice, but if you look in the Classic GH thread, at about 4 minutes, there's a promo for November 20, 1979 - the entire ABC soap lineup.

Hollywood Sexual Harrasment/Assault Thread
Demi Moore's memoir probably tells you enough about Ashton as a person (that and other people who have said he's extremely unpleasant to deal with). I'm already seeing "truthers" on the corpse of Twitter trying to make Masterson their new cause. This is also a reminder of just how much for show a great deal of the high profile human trafficking activism is.

Can't remember if these had been up before and were reuploaded.- From Day Player to Long-Running Character
Corrie: Julie Goodyear appeared in less than a dozen episodes in 1966. Pat Phoenix, then the biggest icon of the show, encouraged her to spend more time on the stage to hone her acting skills. She returned in 1970 and became a huge icon herself for decades to come. Anne Kirkbride appeared in one 1972 episode. 3-4 months later, she was brought back, and remained on the show until her death in 2014. Helen Worth joined in 1974 as a supporting friend to Tricia, a character who was meant to be the hot new thing. Tricia only lasted a few years, but Worth is still there, with her kids and grandkids driving major story for years. Sarah Lancashire had a bit part in 1987. In early 1991, she returned for a part that was only meant to last a few weeks, but the writers enjoyed her work and kept writing for her. She became one of the main faces of the show until Lancashire left in 1996. Lynne Perrie appeared for most of the '70s as a supporting figure/antagonist in the factory. Near the end of the decade, the show decided to expand her part, giving her a son and permanent husband (ignoring past continuity as a result). She stayed on the show until she was let go in 1994. Liz Dawn joined not long after Perrie, also as a factory worker. Her part was also steadily built up, cemented by finally making her husband Jack (played by Bill Tarmey, himself responsible for several Corrie bit parts over the years). Jack and Vera would go on to become beloved by viewers until they left in 2007 and 2010. Julie Hesmondhalgh joined Corrie in early 1998 as Hayley, in what was initially treated as a transphobic joke. The show decided to keep her on and she became a firm viewer favorite until she chose to leave in 2013.- Another World Discussion Thread

I suppose there was also Sharon Crossthwaite, although that was early on.- Dallas Discussion Thread
I thought it looked a bit like Deborah Shelton, but there's no real reason she'd be on there.- The Media/Journalism Thread
I didn't read the article either. I posted the tweet mostly because about as honest as I've seen the Beltway be about why they hate Biden and want him to lose. He doesn't make them money on book deals and there also isn't an in-house group who buy the books in bulk as often happens with the GOP.- The Media/Journalism Thread
A reminder of just why the media hates Biden so much.- RIP: In Memoriam Thread
