Wow. Sad.
We are devastated to announce that our wonderful husband and Dad, Mike, has collapsed and died while in Melbourne for the Aus Open. For 38 years he lived his dream covering sport all over the world. He was a truly great man and we will miss him terribly. Lucy, Sam, Ruby and Joe.

Javier Bardem and Chloe Sevigny have been cast as the Menendez parents opposite Nicholas Chavez (GH) in his Ryan Murphy miniseries. Some very A-list heft to work with the newbies:

Emma Stone is already doing the “I don’t want this—Lily deserves it” routine that Cate Blanchett did last year when she collected a few of the precursors before Michelle Yeoh ultimately won:

Insane to me that time and time again J. McEnroe goes on air and just admits he has zero clue who a player is. (Today, bergs, 120 atp) just says to the world, hey guys, I’ve done zero research for my job and I’m just going to disrespect someone who’s top 150 in the world at a job

I remember reading Tom Shales’s reviews and columns many years ago. A dwindling generation:
Tom Shales, a Pulitzer Prize-winning television critic for The Washington Post who brought incisive and barbed wit to coverage of the small screen, died at a hospital in Fairfax County, Va. He was 79. https://t.co/libqO6gIR0

I legit haven't watched an entire episode of GH in decades, not since Claire Labine left as head scribe. I've seen clips and partial eps here and there, but nothing that satisfied me or made me want to tune back in regularly.
That being said, I've actually sat down and watched the last few episodes (it helped a lot that so many vets were featured prominently).
I'm shocked to admit that I was pleased with today's episode (January 11, 2024), and felt it was an honorable and touching send-off to a beloved actress and character.
And it made me cry. A crusty curmudgeon like me, who hasn't shed a tear over a soap since Maureen Bauer (TGL), and BJ and Stone (GH) died in the 1990s!
Hell has frozen over, LOL!
Good job, GH.
Totally agree and I admit I came in with a lot of skepticism. The way the episode came together was beautifully executed, and the “journalist interview” actually managed to be a smart device. It was like a little self-contained movie. I even teared up when Carly and Felicia found the woman who’d been trafficked. (Talk about making a lot out of a minor character!) Makes you wonder what these people can do with more time, thought, budget, and care, as they managed an episode so powerful even within the limitations of the show.
I do think GH does tributes to its departed performers well. This was better the Sean/John Reilly tribute, which had a similar feel with the self-contained WSB story with Reilly’s real-life daughter. GH employs these personal touches in these tributes that really resonate deeply.
Brighton Hertford looks so much like JZ. She’s beautiful. And a fine actress.
Ryan Carnes really nailed it. He’s the real deal as an actor. I wish they’d find a way to keep him, but then you realize that day-to-day GH is absolutely trash. Love him, but his talents would be wasted.

RIP Bill Hayes. What a star. What a man. What an inspiration. Bill, to the very end, showed up at Days of Our Lives with pride, spirit and a love of craft that never waivered. To lose him at age 98 is way too soon. Condolences to dear Susan, and to us all.

Robin slapping the ever-loving sh!t out of LW/Carly will always be profoundly satisfying. That looked like it made real contact, haha.0 -

RIP Bridget Dobson, who gave us the soap of a lifetime when she created (with hubby Jerry) the deliriously radical #SantaBarbara. True TV royalty (her parents created #GH), Bridget was so ballsy, innovative and freakin’ brilliant that she had no imitators. Nobody even dared try. pic.twitter.com/3h6hq75odf

The best of this genre are leaving us so quickly.
I’m devastated to hear we lost Bridget Dobson. I loved her. She was instrumental in my career and a great friend. A soap icon and a wonderful effervescent person. I don’t have words. My heart is

I have not seen an official source, but Michele Val Jean posted on Twitter that Bridget Dobson has passed away.
I was just coming here to see what people were saying because I saw someone post it on IG. What a sad loss to start 2024.

Wow, with Pitchfork getting downsized and absorbed into GQ, the LA Times laying off workers, and now Sports Illustrated firing their entire staff, it’s been a brutal week for print media and online journalism:
