I have a vivid memory of Erika Slezak saying that the scene where Viki slaps Tina for putting the letter in the programs for the Banner Anniversary was shot at 2 am. That was a long day.

I just fast forwarded through 90% of that episode. Stupid, terrible. Why would they do that on Christmas Eve?

I guess that I don't pay attention, lol. I think that I thought that SOD was an e-magazine only and not still in print. I avoid spoilers so maybe I subconsciously ignore anything SOD related. I was a long time subscriber to SOD but gave it up in the early 2000's when there were still 8 or 9 soaps left. Can't imagine how thin an issue is now.

Enjoyed the Christmas Eve show. Very sensitive work from Billy Flynn. The annual Christmas ornament hanging was sentimental as usual.

Didn't even know that SOD still existed. lol And a cover price of $6.99??? Wow. No thanks. Rumors are always based in a tiny grain of fact and then blown up to sell magazines. Regarding blind item #1, I don't care who it is - if that 'rumor' is true, why is it being tolerated? There is not 1 star on daytime who's behavior like that should be tolerated.

I only half pay attention while this show is on. Didn't Sheila get stuck in traffic with the cop right behind her? Why didn't he just shoot out her tires while she as stopped? The whole sequence was ridiculous. And I still can't get over the stupidity of Sheila wearing open toed shoes after cutting off her own toe to make everyone think she's dead. Brad Bell's father wrote Sheila so much smarter than this.

That was hysterical! Sorry Dylan but Griffith is a joke. He really should fire himself.

I haven't warmed up to Krista. She has too much of a shady background that I can't ignore. I don't see anything great that she is bringing to the role. I still see her in those movies that I shouldn't have seen. lol

Sheila wearing open toed shoes on today's episode is SO cringe. She's smarter than that.

Incorrect. These ratings were during sweeps. Not that sweeps matter anymore. lol

B&B is still on the air. I was referring to cancelled soaps. Even ABC passed on a reboot of AMC.

Come on guys. BE REALISTIC. A couple thousand views doesn't mean success. Cancelled soaps will never bring $$ to the owners. They are dead. Gone.

Sharon Gabet is a gem. She posts several episodes from the early 80's on Facebook (and youtube) and responds to comments. She's a treasure. She has a great memory and tells it like it was. Love love love Sharon Gabet.

Thank you. I really am trying to be positive about Ron Carlivati, who has a tough job, but then THIS episode happens. Ridiculous.

Dylan, you're behind the times.

Oh no. Very sad news. He was great on Days and Y&R after his Hogan's Heroes run.

Vee wasn't on the set at that time. SMH.

An incredible loss. Very sad. John Aniston will be missed.

I cannot wait to watch it all unfold. So funny that the always negative poster who says that Ron Carlivati has no talent posts everything that happened at Day of Days. SMH.

Very, very sad news. He will be missed.

Putting sentences in bold doesn't make them true. Sticking to facts, Justin Deas was clearly talking about his time as Buzz on GL, not SB, where they wanted to give him all of the dialogue in 1 episode. The idea was rejected so they instead gave him most of the dialogue for an episode during the 5th Street fire story on GL, which turned out to be about 90 pages of dialogue. Justin was not given 90 pages of dialogue as Keith on SB.

A simple google search or search of youtube credits of early 80's ATWT will easily show that Betty Rea was casting both ATWT and GL for a time. And just to correct the misinformation that Justin Deas was almost given a whole episode of dialogue on SB - wrong. Justin was talking about when he was on GL as Buzz. Not surprising. He took over that show.

I can't speak for the legality of Pam and Jay's relationship. They had 2 kids together. But yeah, Pam totally mis-remembered writing Reva off of GL.

Pam Long has had a couple of WTF moments/interviews. Despite being credited as Pamela Long Hammer during her first headwriting stint on GL, she later claimed that she was never married to Jay Hammer. And during GL's final week on the air, she gave an interview where she said that she wasn't the one who wrote Reva's post partum depression story that lead to Reva driving off the bridge and Kim Zimmer exiting the show in the summer of 1990. Pam was credited as headwriter into early 1991.

Henry Slesar was amazing on Edge. His subsequent shows were blah. Nick Nicholson left him alone and trusted him at Edge. Maybe Henry had a hard time adjusting to an hour format because his OLTL stint was awful and Capitol wasn't much better even though Capitol was half hour. Conboy probably interfered too much. Henry's Edge was masterful.
