Closeted (gay) actors formerly on the soaps
Anyone who doesn’t know that way back in 1975, Susan Flannery wasn’t hiding her sexuality in a fan club newsletter while talking about her ‘daughter’ needs to be educated. Susan Flannery didn’t hide.

Closeted (gay) actors formerly on the soaps
Another thread derailed by you know who. It’s always gotta be about ME. SMH. James Mitchell was always out. Even in his responses to fan letters, he talked about his male partner. Susan Flannery never gave a (blank) about what people knew or talked about her. The list goes on and on. Too many to list and yes, it wasn’t hard to figure out even way back then.

ARTICLE: ‘Live with Kelly and Mark’ Leads Daytime Talk Among Viewers, Ranks As No. 1 Entertainment Talk Show
I wonder why The View’s press releases stopped mentioning Live with Kelly & Mark? The View always claims to be #1 and they used to claim being #1 over Kelly & Mark and now The View still claims to be #1 but they don’t mention Kelly & Mark anymore in their press releases. Just as aside: I have been in the audience at times for all of the iterations of the show and Kelly and Mark are by far, the best in terms of interacting with the audience during commercials. They can’t talk to everyone, but they try.

I remember Soap Opera Weekly doing a 2 Part interview with Laibson and McTavish and they were arrogant. Laibson said “tough [!@#$%^&*]” about a couple that wasn’t resonating. We would just have to accept the couple. Tough [!@#$%^&*] Laibson was replaced by tough Rauch a few months later.

I met Laiby (Michael Laibson) at the GL fan club gathering in 1996. He didn’t impress me. He was arrogant. Why he went to this gathering of fans who loved the show and came in with an attitude astounded me. GL was not in great shape so why the attitude. Maybe because his job was on the line. He was thankfully fired soon after. I do have to say that his wife, Holly, was there and she was SO lovely! She was almost apologetic. Holly Laibson has since passed. She was a kind person. Michael, not so much.

ARTICLE: Daytime Broadcast Ratings for the Week of May 13-17, 2024
Way to go Patrick Mulcahey with the wedding! He only wrote the good stuff and Elizabeth Korte wrote the bad stuff. I bet that Frank and ABC expected a bigger bump than 26,000 viewers.
