  1. Then he and Terri Conn stunk up ATWT and blew up their respective marriages in the process!
  2. I'd be surprised if that ever happens as well (mostly in the context of a GH streaming spin-off). So much of Disney's strategy for Disney+ is built on content that can easily be distributed to a mass audience globally on various international versions of the platform. They're not going to invest in something niche like a soap spin-off, especially since the ABC soaps have never really had much of an international footprint and success outside of the US, when they can invest in Marvel and Star Wars content which does translate well across the world. Then there's Hulu, which seems to be focused on mostly original content.
  3. Much better than what I thought it was going to be, especially for such a relatively obscure comic franchise that even Marvel fans like myself never thought that highly of. Though, I must say, Tony Leung (Wenwu/The Mandarin) was the heart and soul of this movie - in a less racist world, he should be been a big crossover star in his prime. Awkwafina was, once again, basically playing a version of herself and essentially her character from Nora From Queens. I see no real reason she was in this other than because she's currently the most popular Asian-American actress/comedian of the moment. Her character screams of "let's just cast Awkwafina because she's Asian and give her any damn role!"
  4. The funny thing though, I think Erica’s best writing was under Wisner Washam and not Agnes Nixon. Also, Robin Strasser may take issue with this thread, lol. Since her Rachel Davis (created by Nixon on AW) was the prototype for Erica (though Erica had existed before in the Nixon’s initial AMC bible that wasn’t picked up).
  5. I don't think there's ever been any storyline or direction during their entire tenure so far. Absolutely zero vision.
  6. Allan's first tenure was very poor, the show was indeed mind-numbingly boring. Marquess was hired as a direct result of that unfortunately.
  7. I don't know if it's loyalty, or if they just don't care and are content with riding it out until the show is canceled or these folks leave on their own accord.
  8. So, no one at CBS, Sony, or Y&R has made any comments on this yet?
  9. Jeanne Cooper must be rolling in her grave.
  10. No Way Home will lead into Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness - which is of course directed by Sam Raimi who directed Sony’s initial Spiderman trilogy.
  11. Trailer leaked yesterday, so Sony and Marvel have officially released it:
  12. Oh god, I remember folks on here and Jeremy Giddens trying really hard to make that awful actress that played Kristina happen.
  13. All characters don’t need to be connected to existing families/characters. I wish some soap fans would stop with that sh!t.
  14. Barbra's 70's peak is something very special - she was regularly topping both the pop charts and box office at this point in her career. We've never really seen someone since who had such control over both entertainment industries to the same extent. Lady Gaga is trying so hard to follow in her footsteps but does not have the same STAR power or prowess. Here are her Grammy wins for 'Evergreen' - Best Female Pop Vocal performance (very strong category that year with Linda Ronstadt, Dolly Parton, Carly Simon, and Debbie Boone also nominated), and Sony of the Year (which was a tie with 'You Light Up My Life').
  15. A lot of PC was Wendy Riche being a bit over her head - part of the reason ABC ordered it as opposed to something else was because Riche pitched the financial efficiencies they'd get from leveraging the same studio as GH, and using much of the same production and writing staff. In the end, it just never really worked out that well (and GH suffered as well with Riche putting her focus on launching PC).
