Guiding Light Discussion Thread
Wasn't the comparison GL vAL and SFT v OLTL? Over his tenure Marland slowly dropped a lot of the Dobson's characters. Elizabeth, Rita, Holly, Lucille, Diane, Roger, Sara, Steve, Adam, Barbara. Some of these were the actor's choice or network dictates. He did have a dilemma with some of the older characters as Barbara, Steve and Adam had no family left on the show so it was difficult to include them and they were probably drawing hefty salaries due to vet status. Marland would probably been happy to weave them in somehow but was overruled. But he kept Alan, Hope, Ben,Amanda, Jackie, Eve, Ross in the mix so the show didn't seem overrun with newbies. The big mistake was dropping Mike, Hope, Ben, Amanda, Hilary, Floyd,Eve, Katie, Morgan, Kelly etc fairly suddenly and turning the show over to Reva, etc. Marland had set up the Reardons as the complimentary long term family to the Bauers but they began dropping like flies also. And the succeeding teams then began chipping away at those newish characters and those from previous regimes until there was mismash of chracters and fragmented families.

Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)
CBS could have moved EON back to 4pm in 75, rather than letting it go to ABC. Viewers would have been more likely to watch it later in the day on the same station than have to find it and follow it on another network.
