Wonderful news!

I so disagree with you. We are not all suffering. The people spoke! Loudly. VERY loudly!

Great episode by Ron Carlivati. Glad he's moving on to Beyond The Gates. He writes great gay stories. Today was a phenomenal episode. As an aside, yes, Leo is too old for Javi. But posters on the board are too old for Chandler. lol

It is SO interesting that @Vee who knows EVERYTHING, got this wrong .

@Vee Will you please say on topic. This topic is about Beyond The Gates. Thank you!!

Fantastic news!! Go Days!

I knew that my Ron Carlivati would not be unemployed for long. Go make #BTG the best it can be!

Today was good. Not great. Stephan O. leaving came out of nowhere. Good to see Vivian. But she wasn't as 'out' there as she can be, especially with Ivan. Very subdued. Good to see them both. However, the zaniness wasn't there. Javier will need to improve his enunciation. It was his first day so he gets a pass. Look forward to seeing his story. I continue to love Cheri Jimenez. I've forgotten the name of the previous actress. lol John-Paul Laviosier was pretty campy. He looks good but over the top. Tone the camp down.

Slick, you are truly the BEST! Thank you.

I hope it’s soon. I can’t stand Van.

Tracker is a smash hit!! With old people. Tracker’s demos SUCk! Tracker had 5 million more viewers than Big Brother yet Big Brother beat Tracker in the all important demos. Grannys are watching Tracker.

So Van Hansis got hired because he kept sending in tapes and finally got hired? I liked Ryan Carnes so much better in the role.

Giddens should never be around a soap. Ever.

I get that I am being ageist. Ed Scott is 80. What can he bring to a show/genre that wants young viewers?

Ed Scott isn’t there to make changes.

You forgot John Fisher, “Supervising Producer” who supervises nothing. Yes, he pays bills for the show in the office but he supervises nothing related to story or what we see onscreen.

I don’t see this as a show changing thing. He’ll just be filling a position. B&B cut him. The man is 80. He won’t even be sitting in story meetings. Oversee scheduling, sick calls, a camera or light goes down. Day to day stuff that does not affect what we see on screen. Yes. Sony sold the music rights. It had nothing to do with the producers. Ed Scott cannot get back those music cues.

She is SO right! I spent many hours outside the soap studios with other fans, and yes, we would wait for a ‘star’ to come out and we really would say ‘he/she’s no one’

I still LOVE Leo. He's my fave. That being said, I am finally done with Carlivati. I thought that he would think about stories and where he could take the show during the strike. He didn't. I look forward to the new writers. Carlivati is so out of gas with what is airing now. Boring. Spellman- Drucker is to blame too. She's done nothing to improve the show. She needs to be replaced. The show is boring.

The actor who plays Seth Burns in the ridiculous Body & Soul storyline looks like Albert Alarr. Sorry but that's what I saw.

Thank you for that info. I didn't realize that Ryan is in his 40's. He looks younger.

So Lucas is now in his 40’s? Hopefully this is short term. Van’s acting ticks were annoying on ATWT. Bad decision GH.

Pretty much. Robin returned to NYC in 1992 after having some success on Coach and Knots Landing. She wanted to get back into daytime and met with JFP at GL about taking the Alexandra role. That didn’t go well so Robin called ABC to let them know she was available and Princi’s contract was up and voila. Robin was back.

I appreciate that SON reports these ratings but the reality is that these ratings are USELESS. Instant gratification. They are a baseline. The starting point. The ratings only grow from here with streaming on the apps. I do laugh at the people who think these ratings determine whether or not a story is a success. So much more goes into it than these numbers.

The fact that Wheeler was never hired in daytime again says alot. I’d rather GL ended earlier than the idiotic Peapack crap. Go out with dignity. GL did not do that because of Wheeler. It’s show business. You lose jobs. It happens. I’ll never forgive Ellen Wheeler for what she did to GL. Peapack? How stupid.
