RIP: In Memoriam Thread
Click to watch A Martinez slideshow tribute to Graham Greene https://www.instagram.com/p/DOF2H94Dt0j/ abonemartinez (A Martinez) ||||||| #GrahamGreene has crossed over. He stands as a giant among all actors. On the day he came to play the Vietnam Vet who pulls his old pal Buddy out of a tight squeeze in Powwow Highway, Graham had endured one of the more difficult journeys imaginable. Not only traveling from Canada on the day he would begin work, but having his flight delayed and ground transportation go sideways to the point where he barely got to the set in time to get into his wardrobe. Despite which, when he sat down in the bleachers and revealed the depth of his character’s wounds –– broken so deeply by his PTSD that even speaking was agony –– his work was simply and utterly magnificent. A living condemnation of all that had dragged him to the moment, yet still a man who would call out his one-time friend for having gotten mean. The movie was transformed. The next year Graham was cast as Kicking Bird in Dances With Wolves, and a groundbreaking career was launched. He spit on pretense, but he could and would play all the colors –– drolly and fearlessly –– which is why he’s held in reverence by those who got to work with him. On the day he went to work on Longmire, I noticed that one of the actors had left his door open in the row of mobile dressing rooms, inviting company. It was Graham, of course… “He will be missed” can’t really cover the scope of the moment. He was a big-time credit to the human species, and tonight I’m grateful for all the years we got to witness the consistently irresistible observations he offered. (1) POWWOW HIGHWAY (2) Kicking Bird in DANCES WITH WOLVES (3) With Kevin Costner (4) Becoming Canadian Royalty (5) Family Man in DEFIANCE (6) With Cuba Gooding in SNOW DOGS (7) With Felicity Huffman in TRANSAMERICA (8) DEFIANCE (9) With Val Kilmer in THUNDERHEART (10) As Maximus in REZ DOGS (11) Spiffy for the Walk of Fame (12) The Young Artist

Y&R: Former 'DAYS' actor joins in returning role
Personally, I thought Lucas Adams' acting skill on DAYS was very dull and uninteresting. Adams seems pleasant in real life but I just wasn't inspired by his acting. But, as has been pointed out, it won't matter if his acting skills are good or not -- because the writing will be dull regardless.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFyaicODiJE Name of promo is "Who shot Drew?" but I redacted it from the thread title. https://www.facebook.com/generalhospital/videos/2029847377820481 https://x.com/GeneralHospital/status/1962832891387220225- GH: September 2025 Spoilers

I don't know why the listings for "CTV Drama Channel" mentioned the repeats. SON article (Link) and thetvwatercooler.com (Link) said "CTV Drama" begins broadcasting new episodes of BTG on Sept 8th. But no mention of broadcasting the repeats on air. Per the announcement: Crave in Canada begins *streaming* all episodes of BTG since first episode effective today September 1st, with new episodes uploaded to Crave the next day effective September 9th.- BTG: September 2025 Spoilers

This is the nonspoiler thread. But that video promo is a spoiler since it shows week of Sept 8 stuff. I get why you posted it, in that CBS broadcast it during a commercial break today, but still, it's a spoiler. For anyone not watching today's live broadcast of the reruns, they wouldn't see that promo.- Y&R: September 2025 Discussion Thread
@JAS0N47 has always made monthly lists of sets used on DAYS. I don't know if the other soaps have done that.- DAYS: August 2025 Discussion Thread
There are many theories about the writers. At this point I have stopped trying to figure it out.- ARTICLE: The Bold And The Beautiful PreVUE For The Week Of August 25-29, 2025
These blurbs provided by the show ... are awful. "night of passion". "escapades". "reckless behavior". Yeah, no. previous week: ARTICLE: PreVUE For The Week Of August 25-29, 2025 (Link) Will <snip> contemplating what would happen if Electra were to find out about his night of passion with another woman, even though he himself has no clue that the mystery woman was actually Luna. FIXED it: Will was raped by Luna, but he does not know that she was the rapist. --------- new week: ARTICLE: PreVUE For The Week Of September 1-5, 2025 Meanwhile, Li (Naomi Matsuda) confronts Luna (Lisa Yamada) about her recent escapades. Tues. Sept. 2 – Li continues to hide Luna and reprimands her for her reckless behavior. FIXED it: Li *should be* confronting Luna about raping Will, but continues to hide Luna anyhow.- Beverly Hills, 90210 Discussion Thread
Sorry I had a typo. I posted Sept. 1, but it should be Sept. 19. Fixed now.- Star Trek returns with streaming series
Sonequa Martin-Green (Captain Michael Burnham from Star Trek Discovery) now starring in new CBS series "Boston Blue" which debuts October 2025. Details on the series (and a video of Sonequa talking about it) behind the spoiler tag. (spoiler tag used simply because this info isn't relevant to Star Trek.) I'm not interested in the police procedural aspect, but it's cool that Gloria Rueben will play her mother.
