GH to be preempted on Tuesday for MLB playoffs.

GH to be preempted Tues, Wed, Thurs, and Friday.
(Sept 29th, Sept 30th, Oct 1st, Oct 2nd).

for wildcard game process of the MLB (Major League Baseball) playoffs.

Source: ESPN press room:

According to soaps.com,
MLB will air *instead of* GH on those dates -- in most markets.

But in some markets, GH airs at a different time,

so there won't be a conflict.

In those markets, GH will air repeats on Tues, Wed. Thurs.

Tue. Sept. 29th:  Repeat of Tues. Feb. 3, 2015.
Wed. Sept. 30th:  Repeat of Wed. Feb. 4, 2015.
Thurs. Oct. 1st:  Repeat of Thurs. Feb. 5, 2015.

For recaps of those 2015 epis, read Tues, Wed, Thurs, at this link:
https://www.soapcentral.com/gh/recaps/2015/150202.php

EDIT with update:  According to Diagnosis Daytime, the repeat episodes planned for Tues/Wed/Thurs have been scrapped.
 

NOTE:  Regarding Friday, Oct. 2nd:
Originally, soaps.com announced that they weren't sure if MLB wildcard game would air Friday or not.
Several soap sites showed a new GH epi for Fri. Oct. 2nd.
However, The ESPN press room link above now shows MLB for Fri. Oct 2nd.

Also, the cable guides now show MLB for Fri. Oct. 2nd.

(No GH repeat has been announced yet for Friday).

However, other sites are still saying that the need for
a Friday MLB wildcard game broadcast on ABC

is dependent on how the other wildcard games go during the week.

Laura Sulwald....Lisa Fanjoy 82 third Laura found after disappearance

Interesting.

I'd never before seen the last name of the third Laura character (the mystery blonde).

Also I never knew who the actress was.

fyi, Lisa Fanjoy is also known as Lisa Williams.

Lisa worked on DAYS as the body double for actress Eileen Davidson -- whenever Eileen played more than one character in the 1990s (Kristen Blake DiMera, Susan Banks Crumb, Sister Mary Moira Banks, Thomas Banks, and Penelope Kent).

And again when Eileen returned to DAYS 2012-2018 (Kristen and Susan).

Lisa has also worked on DAYS as the body double for actress Stacy Haiduk for the characters of Kristen Blake Dimera and Susan Banks.

She has also been on DAYS as a body double for Deidre Hall for the characters of Marlena Evans-Black and Hattie Adams.

Eileen Davidson has instagrammed about her as a BFF from all the years she played her body double, and Eileen refers to her as Lisa Fanjoy.  Jason47 refers to her as however she appeared in the DAYS credits (usually Lisa Williams).

I never knew she played the 1982 mystery Laura on GH 

who had a resemblance to Laura Vining Webber Baldwin Spencer (now Collins).

Above info edited for clarity.

EDIT to add:
Lisa Williams Fanjoy also played Brady Pub waitress "Lisa" on DAYS.

Tristan said in a couple of his cameo vids that the Holly story was being dropped because Emma Samms has Long COVID.  So they are going on to other stories which he'll be featured in.  And he doesn't think they'll restart the Holly storyline until next year sometime, when (hopefully) Emma is better.

For anyone who missed it, Emma Samms August 17th article, on "Long COVID"

https://people.com/tv/dynasty-emma-samms-talks-long-covid-symptoms/

On the other hand, Emma did tweet this, on the day GH showed Holly on a camera somewhere alive. (presumably this was filmed remotely via video chat or something?)

If Tristan is correct, then maybe that's all we'll see of Holly for now?

I am happy to see Devon Elevon, Nate, Amanda, Lily. Getting more airtime. I hope i'm correct in my theory and nate is playing all of them.

Ooooh, I was thinking that too.

I like Allie's look.  I like that she looks like a real young person who is unconcerned with trendy fashion. But also not old-fashioned either.

What do you mean when you say Corday has nothing to do with it?

Corday said on the Digest podcast Sept 4th that he thinks Ron is great, and he trusts Ron and that he(Corday) stopped giving Ron notes/instructions around 6 months prior to the podcast.  So basically Corday is no longer interfering with the writing.

At about 40 minutes in.

Is it me or did CBS AA just take down all but one classic episode? WTF?

They took it all down.  I was afraid they would. 

Y&R started  Season 48 on Monday Sept 21.
 

CBS never keeps  Y&R episodes up from prior seasons, they wipe the slate clean.  Some deal with Sony distribution, I imagine.

The only prior Y&R episodes left on CBS.com are from Season 47, from the past week or two.  But by October those will be gone too.  They do this every September.  Even if you pay for All Access, you can't see Y&R episodes from prior seasons. 

The pandemic classics were an exception.

Also the official Y&R youtube account deleted all of its clips from the past year. They do that every September, too.

FRUSTRATING! 

Edit to add: CBS deleted everything like they do every September; but I wonder if they were supposed to  delete the classics or if that was accidental?

Clearly, GH is getting paid by the drug company to air the osteo storyline. It has sponsorship written all over it. I don’t find anything interesting about it at all. 

Yup. Nancy Lee Grahn was on The View.  Host Sara Haines came right out and said that one of "our sponsors"  is the osteoporosis drug.

They do - Thorsten doesn’t have a stand and I saw a scene and he kissed Brooke and the mannequin was so bad they didn’t even try to style it’s hair and it was on a little crooked.  Didn’t look like Brooke’s hair at all.  And KKL must not have one either or they’re so different that they can’t. 

KKL kissed her longterm boyfriend Dominique Zoida, while Thorsten Kaye kissed a mannequin.

KKL instagrammed about it in August:

“You know, putting a national lock down, stay at home orders, is like house arrest. Other than slavery, which was a different kind of restraint, this is the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American history,”

Attorney General Barr said, as a round of applause came from the crowd at Hillsdale College.

In the USA, National Hispanic Heritage Month is Sept 15 - Oct 15.
http://www.hispanicheritagemonth.gov/about/
https://www.nps.gov/subjects/npscelebrates/hispanic-heritage-month.htm

• Joe Biden gave a speech Sept 15 at an event in Kissimmee, Florida, to kick off Hispanic Heritage month.  Kissimmee is where many Puerto Ricans settled after Hurricane Maria.
• He said he supports statehood for Puerto Rico.
• He made campaign stops in a few other Florida cities, also.
• Biden sat down for an interview with Jose Diaz-Balart of Telemundo, his first one-on-one session with a national Spanish-language network since clinching the nomination.
• Biden unveiled a plan to create a federal working group for Puerto Rico to help with recovery efforts and economic advancement.

Full report on his Kissimmee speech:

More on Biden's other Florida campaign stops:

---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----

On a side note, for the speech in Kissimmee ....
Before Biden spoke, the following people came to the podium to speak:
Osceola County commissioner Viviana Janer.

Congressman Darren Soto.
Ricky Martin.

Eva Longoria.
Then singer Luis Fonsi spoke. Luis Fonsi ended his remarks by introducing Biden.

Biden came out on stage and started his speech by playing Luis Fonsi's song "Despacito" on his phone.

There have been comments on social media saying Biden picked the song at random. But no it's not random.  He picked a hit song by Fonsi, the singer who introduced him.

There have been comments on social media and on the news, deriding Biden for playing a song whose lyrics are sexual. But he didn't play the whole song!  He played exactly 15 seconds and that's all. (You can time it from the video).

The full video of the introductory speakers plus Biden's speech is here:
https://www.c-span.org/video/?475778-1/joe-biden-speaks-hispanic-heritage-month-event-kissimmee-florida

Trump then twice retweeted a doctored video of Biden playing a song on his phone.

In the fake video, the song playing on the phone was "F*ck the Police" by N.W.A.

Twitter has now labeled the doctored video shared by @realDonaldTrump
 as "manipulated media".
However the whole doctored video shows and
the "manipulated media" label is only on the tweet frame,

The song on the phone is so unimportant,  we have tons of more important crises in the world to focus on!

Just mentioning it because of Trump's embrace of lies to get people to believe Biden hates police.

The implications of this story, if true, are beyond grotesque. But I believe the original source is the Intercept, and unfortunately the ratio of good work the Intercept does vs. insane crackpot editorializing is far too slanted. I can certainly believe this is happening, therefore I am obligated to post it. But I will need more sources than it currently has. If true, the camps should be evacuated and bombed.
