I'm not Canadian so I don't know. This is the Guardian's analysis page: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jan/06/why-is-canadas-justin-trudeau-stepping-down-as-prime-minister

I haven't been watching but I noticed this comment online elsewhere: They commented that on the January 3rd episode, it was simultaneously Christmas, the day after Christmas, and also some undefined date in January for Drew’s inauguration. I didn't watch but I'm curious because, is this sort of thing common? Or could this particular continuity confusion be related to the fact that the script editor Anne Schoettle hasn't appeared in the credits for a few days and is perhaps gone? (I mean, if nobody at GH is editing for continuity)

Wow, I totally remembered it wrong. I just looked it up and, you're right, of course. Fascinating that I remembered Anna&Robert's backstory as having aired first before Holly arrived, but that didn't happen onscreen live. How did I remember it so incorrectly? LOL. I guess I was such an Anna/Robert shipper that I must have remembered it as the first one to air. LOL.

oh yeah that Serena Mason storyline sucked

I cannot get the search function to work there. I enter a name within the search on your page, and I get random results that have nothing to do with the person I'm searching. Or it gives an actor or character name that's similar to the first name or the surname but not the full name, even if I put the full name in quotes.

What? Maybe I'm wrong, but that's not what I remember at all. What I remember, watching live was Anna and Robert first. They were amazing when they first aired. Then Holly much later as a con artist finding Luke out in the middle of nowhere. Then much later on Robert marrying Holly to give her a green card, and they were written to develop feelings for one another. I always thought of Holly as the interloper. I was always Team Robert/Anna all the way. More random thoughts from me. I truly loathed the Anna/Duke pairing. It was ewww to me. Duke was a mobster and I hated the show writing Anna as always forgiving him. To use a Charmed metaphor, Anna should have vanquished Duke the way Phoebe finally vanquished Cole. Enough giving him another chance! This may be an unusual opinion, but I liked Holly/Luke together when Holly first appeared on GH. That was actually the only Luke pairing I ever liked. I didn't ship them a lot, but I did like them together. I remember being surprised to learn on twitter that there were Robert/Holly fans and that there were Anna/Duke fans. I just never liked either pairing and I had no idea they had followings until I saw this mentioned on twitter accounts. That showed me that my perceptions of shows are only my perceptions and not objective facts.

Yes I think it's likely that the networks will cover the National Cathedral funeral, but obviously not the private funeral later in Plains. If it's only the Cathedral ceremony itself, then it might not impact the soaps. However, I speculate that the networks might possibly? have coverage for several hours around the funerals, including the transport ceremonies as his body and his family are brought on and off aircraft, and the family staying at Blair House (the guest house next to the White House) etc. But I'm only speculating.

Ohhh, Thank you for the explanation. Edit, wow I just watched the trailer. Looks like it has great acting with a creepy premise.
-
I am curious, too, but would prefer not to discuss this on the Memoriam thread. @Maxim would you reply on the Brooke-Valley thread, please? Edit, I went to the link Maxim referenced > link to specific post < for clarification, and learned that it's not KKL or Brooke at all.

Regarding possible preemptions for President Jimmy Carter, I don't know yet. But likely that soaps will be preempted Thursday January 9th? The full schedule of proceedings/ceremonies, lying-in-state, and funerals (in Georgia and in Washington DC) at this link: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/67963-former-president-jimmy-carter-has-passed/?do=findComment&comment=1982932

Ceremonies, public events, and funerals January 4-9, 2025 President Jimmy Carter funeral proceedings began today Saturday January 4th in Plains, Georgia, and then at the Carter Center in Atlanta. His body will be in repose in Atlanta for a few days, and the public is invited to pay their respects in Atlanta throughout this time. Then he will be brought to Washington DC. His body will lie in state at the U.S. Capitol Building for a few days. The public is invited to pay their respects at the Capitol Tuesday evening January 7 and specific hours Wednesday January 8. Funeral at the National Cathedral Thursday January 9. Then he will be brought back to Plains, Georgia, later the same day, for a private family funeral at the Plains church, and burial at home. I didn't quote specific times, so as to prevent myself from making errors that I cannot edit. And just in case the schedule later changes. Full official details with times and specific locations (all Eastern time zone) at this link: https://jtfncr.mdw.army.mil/statefunerals/ That link also lists protocols for the general public at the bottom of the page.

No word on soap preemptions yet, specifically. But I think it would be likely for the broadcast soaps? (Peacock Days would be unaffected).

"I have one life and one chance to make it count for something. I’m free to choose that something. That something—the something that I’ve chosen—is my faith. My faith demands that I do whatever I can, wherever I can, whenever I can, for as long as I can with whatever I have, to try to make a difference." -- Jimmy Carter, per his niece Kim who relayed the quote > link to source < "I have learned that our greatest blessings come when we are able to improve the lives of others, and this is especially true when those others are desperately poor or in need." -- Jimmy Carter, from an interview with Habitat for Humanity (Link) "Yet although economic disparity is a great and growing problem, I have become convinced that the most serious and unaddressed worldwide challenge is the deprivation and abuse of women and girls, largely caused by a false interpretation of carefully selected religious texts and a growing tolerance of violence and warfare, unfortunately following the example set during my lifetime by the United States." -- Jimmy Carter. An excerpt from a book he wrote on women: book title: "A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power" ISBN-13: 978-1476773964 https://bookshop.org/p/books/a-call-to-action-women-religion-violence-and-power-jimmy-carter/7555734

Just noticed that. I'd been checking periodically. The "on the next GH" previews are uploaded in advance, but not posted, preprogrammed to post onto the social media accounts at 4am Pacific, 7am Eastern. That explains why both the wrong and right tweets appeared, they were both preprogrammed. Yes obviously the staffperson was finally awakened, as you said.
-
GH always labels their "on the next GH" previews as a "tease". They'll televise it at the end of Monday Jan 6 and then repost it online very early in the morning of Jan 7th. But who knows, you could be right, there's always a first time. Their teasers are usually several unrelated tiny clips all melded together. This is one scene. Anyhow, regardless of whatever reason the GH intern posted it, thanks for posting it here @dragonflies
-
Oh wait, they *also* posted the CORRECT tweet preview for January 3rd ... one second after they posted the accidental wrong tweet for January 7th. https://x.com/GeneralHospital/status/1875150123338244282 ------------------------------------------------------------------ But they didn't delete the wrong one. LOL, it's 3 hours later and the Jan.7th tweet preview is still up. Both tweets currently display on their account. The erroneous one has been retweeted 120 times, with 37,000 views as of the moment I am posting this.

I see that the interns posted the correct "on the next GH" video for January 3rd on the GH facebook and instagram accounts. https://www.instagram.com/p/DEXNekaSW3V/ generalhospitalabc Jan 3, 2025 TODAY ON #GH... Lulu lashes out at Dante for blowing her shot at separating Charlotte from Valentin. Plus, Curtis advises Nina and Sonny has a new outlook on life.

@dragonflies, thanks for posting the video and the source tweet from GH. woah! I've noticed for years, that for GH tweets, when embedded anywhere (here, and on other messageboards), the caption doesn't show in the embedding. It's how GH designs their twitter videos. (Oh, I see! That's why you posted the screencap of that caption.) Here's a screencap of all of the tweeted video, showing all of that together - the visual and the full caption that it's for January 7th:

Yes. Lisa Williams also appeared in Beyond Salem 2 for Eileen's multiple roles. And also at Days as Stacy Haiduk's double for Kristen/Susan scenes. (and briefly as Deidre's double for Marlena/Hattie scenes) Eileen said in an interview that she pitched to JG that they hire Lisa as Ashley's alter.
