I HATED that Olivia became gay. Hated Otalia. It didn’t make sense. And inept Ellen Wheeler is going word for word with those scenes while the entire show Guiding Light is crashing around her and that is her focus??? I have a new profound dislike for Wheeler. She truly killed GL. Add Hurst in there too. She didn’t help save the show.

Wheeler was a total disaster as EP. She killed GL. Peapack??? Worst idea ever. Thank God she never worked in daytime again. An EP should not be crying everyday, as described in Kim Zimmer's book. Wheeler obviously knew that she was in way over her head and had no idea what she was doing, other than killing the show. Firing Jerry verDorn? Unforgiveable.

Wow. This topic has been derailed.

Love me some Leo! Always glad when he’s on. The Jada story sucks.

I want to FREELY unload a ton of VHS soap tapes that sit in my basement. Mostly from 1986 on and I know some of those tapes have kinetoscope scenes from older soaps. There is alot of old stuff out there. People just don't know what to do with it. I'm not going to convert and post them online. Too much effort. Any idea what to do with them? Again, for free. I just want to get rid of this stuff that sits collecting dust.

Justin Deas is incredible. I’ve met him 3 times. He’s actually very shy. I sent Margaret pics from the 1 time I ran into them together. A couple very much in love.

I LOVE Leo & Javi. They have great chemistry. More, please.

Her name was Beverlee McKinsey. McKinsey. Please try to spell it right if you want to be taken seriously. McKinsey.

Donna is constantly WRONG. She has to be corrected on a daily basis. Cringe.

Do you honestly think that Leo was written out on April 25? Greg is still in the studio. 😀

I've met Margaret & Justin. They are very much in love.

I enjoy Leo. He’s a riot. Cannot stand Javi. Bad actor. That whole Lady whistle blower storyline sucked. The actor who played lady whistleblower was beyond terrible. Take acting lessons!

So many errors.

No one asked for JFP’s ratings, but thanks for proving she was the best EP at the end of the show. Successor Savitz was a disaster and Goutman carried the cancellation.

Courtney Simon has always been very approachable. She’s a great woman who always answers messages. I’ve messaged her myself and she answers. And just to be clear, the Headwriters of GL when Maureen Bauer died were Nancy Curlee, Lorriane Broderick and Stephen Demorest.

Notice the uptick in women 18-49 ratings (the most important demo) for AW during JFP’s tenure. AW decimated GL. Thanks kalbir. It was about April 1996 during Jill’s tenure that AW jumped way past GL in the all important Women 18-49 ratings.

Jill Farren Phelps raised Another World’s ratings! AW was beating Guiding Light!

That Javi actor has got to go away. He's awful. The crooked acting mouth thing is bad. Cringe.

JFP has 11 Daytime Emmy Awards. How many do those who critique her have???? (silence) I thought so.

Be very careful about what you believe. A person has spilled her hatred, but not the truth.

Absolutely!!! JFP has so many of those friends!

I didn’t say you made up the quote. I asked for a source. For the record, JFP and Nancy Curlee are friends to this day. Facts matter.

When and where was that quote? It doesn't even make sense. I'm certain you can't dig that up because it never happened! lol I thought JFP dictated everything? That quote implies that Curlee was running the show. Which is it? So much misinformation posted the last few days. Even those who post the most contradict themselves and get confused between facts and gossip. It's entertaining but not factual.

Javi was Leo today. Obviously lusting for someone you know you is straight. Dumb stuff. And that Javi actor has weird mouth acting tics.

Ron probably was fired. Hundreds of headwriters have been fired over the decades of soaps. It happens. He immediately got a job at Beyond The Gates because of his talent. Days is dull these "days". The Christmas show was flat to me. The first year without Bill Hayes and it didn't capture the sadness of his passing.
