Guiding Light Discussion Thread
Even though I wasn't watching GL in real time by then, I was happy that MZ got his long-awaited for Lead Actor Emmy. MZ deserved more wins than the one he got. He wasn't nominated in 1991 but should have been and I think he could have won that year, and I also think he should have won in 1992.

ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?
That's right, Kim Zimmer was pregnant with Jake Weary when Reva was pregnant with Shayne. I don't think I've seen a photo of Mr. Weary, but from what I can tell Jake looks so much like his mother.

I won't be. We all know that the shelf life of a villainess isn't very long. Trisha Mann-Grant is the breakout star of BtG and she is destined for bigger and better things.

Search For Tomorrow Discussion Thread
I feel CBS/P&G got really shaken by 1978-1982 ABC huge rise and domination, thus the changes to the shows. Considering Capitol showed no growth, I wonder if CBS ever regretting cancelling Search for Tomorrow. From the 1980s Ratings thread, Capitol pretty much inherited Search for Tomorrow audience but Capitol ratings were impacted when One Life to Live rebounded in 1985 with Andrea Evans return. Remember Capitol was head-to-head with the second half of One Life to Live. Even if CBS kept Search for Tomorrow, I think it would've ended as soon as Bill Bell had a second show ready. Funny thing is Search for Tomorrow NBC run was only three months shorter that Capitol run.

Best Daytime Emmys
I watched every Daytime Emmy broadcast from 1985-2011 and 2020 onward and the best years were 1985-1999.

I wonder who Andre was thinking about when he was lying in his bed. Kat gives me feels of Y&R early Christel Khalil Lily, and her being a virgin is a throwback to the 1980s prized virgin heroine ie. Y&R Cricket, B&B Caroline, As the World Turns Lily.

B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles
IIRC Storm was a nickname given to Stephen Logan Jr. as he had a stormy temper. Much like William Foster Jr. was given the nickname Snapper for snapping at everyone. I remember an interview with either Bill Bell or Bradley where it was mentioned Bill Bell got the name Ridge from a college classmate of Bradley's. Bradley even said that his classmate tells everyone "I'm the real Ridge". I don't where Bill Bell got Thorne from.

BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread
Vanessa is bordering on nasty ho territory. Normally I agree with you @Soapsuds but not on this. Dani opened up to Andre about her insecurities since the end of her marriage, and Andre listened and supported her. Their booty call hook ups are so turning into love.

Falcon Crest
I did not know that Barbara Bel Geddes walked from Dallas rather than have her episodes cut in the final season. I had always read retirement due to health was the reason she was absent from the final season. Jane Wyman was not looking healthy during the final two seasons of Falcon Crest but I still think budget mode lead to her episodes being cut in the final season, considering that she lived another 17 years after Falcon Crest ended.
