Liberty City

YESSSSS

Deanna?

Just now watching the scenes between Hayley Erin & Colleen Zenk at the GCPD, and you can tell Zenk is EATING this story up. In lesser hands this would be more of a mess than it already is.

Yup. Two of us, haha. I also love that she booked it out of Spinelli's "apartment" (which she tried commenting on) when Maxie showed up like she was the "other woman," LOL! And then somehow knew Sonny was at the hospital chapel.

I'm hoping within the next week it'll be a conversation they never have again. I'm MORE surprised it was Ava saying "It's Jason" over Spinelli.

No she's a nurse but we only seem to see her in scenes when Michael comes to visit her, LOL!

They're up from the comparable week last year. Per last year's report: Total Households for the Week of February 20 (Compared to Last Week): (x) Y&R: 2.22 (2.24) B&B: 1.97 (2.07) GH: 1.53 (1.52)

Exactly!

Portia did a lovely job checking Dante's heartbeat in the exam room... when the stethoscope wasn't even in her ears. LOL. And the heartfelt emotion of Sonny? I did not need that. Oh, and how many damn times must we have the same, repetitive dialogue with Maxie re: Spinelli? Spinelli had it with her, then Felicia had it, and now Cody & Sasha! Hoping we're done with it.

I'm praying the casting for this is a mixture of veterans and newcomers. Plus, I'm hoping for more east coast hires than west coast hires for some real rich acting.

It would more so be World Turns fans since The Talk replaced World Turns. Let's Make a Deal replaced Guiding Light.

I'm going to say it: Michele Val Jean wouldn't leave a promising, secure gig for something she didn't have a Bible for already.

My guess? Sometime in the next 12+ months, if not for this fall.

VERY exciting!! Happy that she's back on-set!

Please, no.

YES! I'd kill to see her on this!

The current CEO is Wendy McMahon. 🤣 Be thankful it ain't Les Moonves. Too soon? Haha. We'll see what happens by the end of 2024.

Plus, opposite General Hospital in some areas. I forgot about The Talk honestly.

I have a sneaking suspicion the 2pm hour is where they'd look, and that sucks.

This sounds exciting thus far!! Remaining cautiously optimistic... but could 2024 be a solid year for soaps?

I agree, especially since it seems as if P&G's involvement is via NAACP and now a direct involvement, a-la the canceled east coast soaps. And I am wondering about talent: will we be getting east coast talent?

We should've believed you.

I AM SHOOK WIGLESS!!! Never, in 2024, did I expect a brand-new DAYTIME soap to be in-development, especially at CBS. And with Michele Val Jean as showrunner and head writer?! Wowza!!
