GH: January 2025 Spoilers
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.

Your daily (or nightly) thought
Ohhh, Thank you for the explanation. Edit, wow I just watched the trailer. Looks like it has great acting with a creepy premise.

RIP: In Memoriam Thread
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.

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

Former President Jimmy Carter has passed!
"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

GH: January 2025 Spoilers
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: January 2025 Spoilers
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

GH: January 2025 Spoilers
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.

GH: January 2025 Spoilers
@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.

ALL: What are your lost soap media "holy grails" for 2025?
It was so good! I was a child watching it live, so I didn't take notes or realize I'd be discussing it decades later. All I have are memories of how I felt watching it, that it was riveting, but I don't remember specifically anything I saw, except for glimpses of their faces and their energies in my mind, Ellen Holly, Al Freeman, and a vague memory of Carla's mother, but I don't remember anything specific, other than my older sister explaining to me what "passing" was. Would love to see it again. Edit, I did already know what passing was, but I remember discussing the storylines with my sister.

DAYS: January 2025 Spoilers
from TVinsider: "previews Drucker. <snip> and of course, small doses of humor Leo [Stark, Greg Rikaart], Hattie [Adams, Deidre Hall] and Bonnie [Lockhart, Judi Evans], Susan [Banks, Stacy Haiduk] and Vivian [Alamain, Louise Sorel] always deliver." -- Ack! Leo, Hattie, Bonnie, and Susan are not funny. Vivian should not be written as funny.

Y&R: January 2025 Discussion Thread
You have to tell your DVR to record "all" episodes of the show, otherwise it records only new ones. But even that doesn't work sometimes. Best thing is, if you happen to hear ahead of time that an older episode will air, then tell your DVR to manually record that date/time/channel. That being said, Y&R didn't air in the Pacific Time zone January 1st on CBS at its regular time, due to live CBS news reports on the press conference about the violent driver murdering multiple victims in New Orleans. I don't think Y&R aired at all, unless they put it on later in the day? Maybe some channels could air it overnight? But I don't know if they'd bother with a rerun.

https://www.tvinsider.com/1168243/days-of-our-lives-2025-preview-returns-recastings-storylines/ That TVInsider article says "Emily O’Brien will be back as Gwen on March 10, 2025." That's an error, I believe. SOD said: "Digest has learned that she’ll actually be bringing both of her characters back in 2025. Theresa will be seen in March; and then in July, get ready to welcome Gwen back to town." https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/comings-and-goings-the-latest-cast-changes-as-of-november-4/
