details of the current Health Secretary RFK Jr's insane beliefs - Doesn't believe that germs cause illness; suggests HIV doesn't cause AIDS; suggests antidepressants are behind mass shootings; believes that vaccines are harmful; suggests chemicals in water are changing children's gender identities... and is quick to promote supplements to prevent and treat diseases, such as recently recommending vitamin A for measles and falsely claiming children who die from the viral infection are malnourished. https://arstechnica.com/health/2025/04/rfk-jr-s-anti-vaccine-stance-is-rooted-in-a-disbelief-in-germ-theory/

Tamara Tunie is a goddess in my opinion. She can totally bring the mesmerizing acting, when Anita is written for in an active way. Anita is less interesting when written as a talk-to or a reciter of past events. I think she'll be more in an active role at some point in the relatively near future? Pretty sure Daphnée is going to bring it soon!

The EW spoiler article is on the May spoiler thread. (I'll quote the only non-spoiler thing) "Beginning Thursday, Beyond the Gates is set to plunge viewers into a three-episode arc" That arc airs Thurs. May 1, Fri. May 2, and Mon. May 5. Then BTG has two days off for soccer Tues. May 6 and Wed. May 7. Thankfully we'll have the three big episodes before that soccer break. It's the same set-up on May 6 & 7 as last week: BTG fully preempted on the soccer dates everywhere US and Canada. Y&R and B&B partially disrupted in some cities, but airing overnight, and/or on sister channels, and uploaded online without a preemption. And no disruption to Canada/Australia broadcasts of Y&R and B&B.

One Stormy Night was the name of the January 1992 Days primetime episode. https://www.jason47.com/days/episodeguide1992.html From jason47 bio of Jeanne Marie Ford: when I was in high school, my best friend got me hooked on 'Days.' She first worked on the "Days" staff in 1992 as an unpaid intern and soon after became the show's writer's assistant from 1992-1996. https://www.jason47.com/days/writersinfo.html

Reminder for Tues. May 6 and Wed. May 7: Due to UEFA European Soccer Champions League Semifinals Y&R and B&B may be partially disrupted in some timezones, but it's not an official preemption. (Same procedure as Tues. April 29 and Wed. April 30.) This soccer coverage will be broadcast live in the European evenings, which is 3-5pm Eastern USA, plus a 2-3pm Eastern prematch show. Total timeframe: three hours 2-5pm EDT on those four dates. On CBS only. BeyondTheGates: This fully officially preempts BTG in all timezones in USA and Canada. Tues. April 29, Wed. April 30, Tues. May 6, and Wed. May 7.

Because Y&R and B&B air fully in Eastern/Central time, it's not an official preemption, and those shows will be considered to have aired -- so you'd need to watch on another time/channel or online, or you'd miss it.

After listening to the songs that Michele Val Jean co-wrote for Deniece Williams ... (youtubes and info are a few posts upthread) . . . I wonder MVJ contributed to the music or the lyrics? What type of songs did MVJ's real-life girl group The Articulettes sing? And what did Anita's fictional Articulettes sing?
