All My Children Tribute Thread
I'd be surprised if this hadn't been posted before but someone compiled the entire Michael Delaney story into a 7 hour video. I'm only 30 minutes in but I'm impressed by the frankness and language used. The show didn't seem concerned about making Bobby or Trevor sympathetic, they're both unabashedly homophobic to show an unsupportive point of view. This is the sort of domestic drama soaps have refused to do over the last 20 years. I find it interesting that both Michael and Bianca came out around Christmas time. Did the show do this intentionally knowing more eyeballs would be on daytime this time of year? I don't know.

ABC: ‘All My Children’: Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos Developing Primetime Version
How is this post not 5 pages already? In the All My Children followup, written/executive produced by Leo Richardson (Katy Keene, Star), a young journalist with a secret agenda comes to expose the dark and murderous history of a town named Pine Valley only to become entangled in a feud between the Kane and Santos families. The seres explores all the secrets that come with the Kane and Santos family names. Weird but not weird that the Santos family is one of the families they're focusing on. No one cares about the Santos family outside of Maria (you can't convince anyone gives two shits about Mateo outside of Kelly and Mark's fame).

They probably will but recasting would be a huge mistake. Bring on new people sure but NO recasts. Any eyeballs on this wants to see the familiar faces. You must have Susan Lucci, without her it's not even AMC. Even if she's in there in a very limited capacity. Hell I'd make Miranda the reporter looking into the feud. First of all: I'm internally screaming. I wonder if ABC commissioned EW for that reunion week. It just seems...a little calculated that all these other shows were getting zoom reunion moderated by former publicists and AMC gets one with a major entertainment outlet. I hope this has a season long mystery vibe. That would be neat. But I also hope they don't get too far from Agnes' original vision of tackling social issues.

As The World Turns Discussion Thread
Such a great interview. This Alan guy though starts interjecting at the worst times though. I wanted to hear more about how they felt as black actresses on daytime, they all seemed up for talking in-depth about it. I wasn't watching when Denise or Camille were on but I loved Napiera as Bonnie. She mentioned one positive of P&G, despite the hate she got from some people for being the dark-skinned daughter of a white man and a light skin woman they just ignored it and kept it pushing.

ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?
Reign Edwards, Charlie Gillespie Starring in Wayfarer Studios Drama 'Love You Anyway' (Exclusive) I love her come up. B&B seemed to go out of it's way to waste her. Actually daytime doesn't seem interested in investing in any of their young actors. They give them all such bad, repetitive, boring material to play.

Racism and racial representation on soaps
It's wild to think daytime has only gotten more racist while other forms of media are tripping over themselves to catch up.

Y&R: Old Articles
Do you mean Brenda Dickson? I think showing the old actor can lead to the same confusion, a lot of "who is that?" amongst the audience. I'd avoid as best I could and try to make the story as compelling without the need for flashbacks. I'd rather write a soliloquy with an actor recapping what happened than to show a flashback with a different actor.

One & Done: Actors Who Only Appeared on One Soap
Kim was on All My Children for a few episodes when Anna came back from the dead. She also did GH: Night Shift and (probably) Port Charles. Would those count?
