  1. Isabella Santos RIPS APART Brooke and slaps her in the face "It should've been YOU who died in the plane crash, NOT Maria!"
  2. But it is amazing she still remembers Megan McTavish's name!
  3. All of Maureen Garrett/Elizabeth Kiefer scenes from the Holly/Ross/Blake triangle As Guiding Light "Ripped from the headlines" the Woody/Soon-Yi/Mia farrow scandal
  4. 25 years later, Amanda Seyfried (Joni) encourages people to "ask Megan McTavish" why she was sacked from All My Children. Because she is still puzzled about why she was let go. StreamableWatch as2 | Streamable
  5. Because Alan is such a fan of "World Turns" and said he avidly tuned in during the time of the Kasnoff Brothers, it was puzzling to see that he didn't ask Alex Walters about his working relationship with Alyson Rice and the Mark/Connor/Cal triangle. That was a very hot storyline that caused plenty of controversy. In addition, the Alyson Rice/Susan Batten switch was not addressed. I would have expected those two topics to be at the forefront of the interview. I suspect that Alex Walters requested not to discuss Alyson Rice or the storyline as a condition for his appearance on the show, for reasons unknown. (Maybe he doesn't remember specifics about his time on ATWT and didn't want to look like an idiot in the Locher Room?). It is highly unusual for Alan to refrain from discussing past storylines or the prominent actors a guest has collaborated with.
  6. Kasnoff Brothers reunion on the Locher Room!
  7. If they were going for a Marcy Walker/Robert Newman romance, it would've made more sense for Marcy to play a recast Morgan. As that that was Marcy Walker biggest complaint, her character was not tied to anyone. Nor did it have any backstory. If she was Morgan, that character had a history with Josh and was connected to both the Bauer and Spaulding families.
  8. Awards for Justin Deas are not the most important thing in the world, it is his family that is the most important thing to him. He could be a huge star, but he put his career on the back-burner to be a house husband and father, so his wife (Margaret Colin) could pursue her career.
  9. This is somewhat off-topic, but when Tony's daughter BJ died and her heart was transplanted into her cousin Maxie in 1995, soap critics anticipated that Brad Maule would win an Emmy for his efforts. Justin Deas of Guiding Light defeated Brad Maule, causing a huge upset, ultimately winning six Emmys. Well, I recently saw an interview with Deas, and he has moved from his house to a new condo. He revealed that he gave away all six of his Emmys (including the one he won over Maule) to the movers because he wanted to "declutter." I can only imagine what Brad Maule would think if Deas just gave away his Emmys like that!
  10. Watch this first (compilation of scenes between Iris & Paige) that will get you warmed up fast. Then try to start with episodes when Paige marries Dennis. That will get you hooked fast, because it goes straight into a murder mystery. Actually when TBS reran episodes of Texas, they started with the episodes of the murder, as P&G felt the quality of the first 13 weeks was not up to snuff. If you manage to start with episodes of the murder mystery and go straight through to the end, you can always go back and watch the beginning episodes. which would be more of curiosity than entertainment value
  11. Watching this episode of Family Feud with the cast of Guiding Light from the 90s One of the questions Frank Dicopoulos was asked was "On a scale of 1 to 10, how good looking are you" Frank replied "8"
  12. Erik Stone started following TheyStartedOnSoaps
  13. Its amazing how every CBS & ABC soap had their own local Disco. Wonder why NBC soaps never joined the Disco craze?
  14. In a new interview with Monti Sharp, he says the role of David Grant went down to the wire between him and actor Flex Alexander - below video of Flex if you are curious about how he would interpret David Grant
  15. HBS loves Gregg Marx, and often tells the story about how difficult it was filming bed scenes with Marx, while she was six month pregnant. At the time the show chose to hide her pregancy, but HBS was big. She used to joke that it was three in that bed (her, Marx and her stomach) and since Marx didn't much experience with pregnant women, he didn't know how to coordinate his body over hers to hide her stomach. Which HBS found hilarious everytime they had to do a bed scene.
