27 years ago today and just 3 weeks before the shows 35th anniversary, NBC announced the cancellation of AnotherWorld

Darlene is saying with the audience is thinking.

BTG needs to start inserting some P&G Easter Eggs into the show. Have a subtle reference or message that the police department has received information that blood plasma has been reported missing at the following hospitals Bay City General, Oakdale Memorial, and Springfield Cedars. Mention the chief of staffs at these hospitals in passing- Dr. Jamie Frame, Dr. Chris Hughes, and Dr. Rick Bauer. How about Felicia Gallant writing a biography of Anita Williams Dupree for Cory Publishing? Josh or Billy Lewis coming to Washington DC for some type of oil legislation The characters don’t even have to been seen- just mention with a nod and a wink to P&G history.

Was it me or was Jennifer Holliday doing some bad lip syncing today? It looked liked some bad anime program that was dubbed into English - where the lips didn’t match the words. I expected better, but it was nice to see Holliday drop in to support Anita.

Maybe just maybe, Tomas will catch Hayley, Randy, and Lynette plotting against Bill. As he attempts to leave, the trio will accidentally kill Tomas. This would be the easiest way to get rid of the character, and it would be a good plot twist on how the trio of crooks would get rid of Tomas’ body.

Yes- ABC did express interest in AW and when that didn’t happen, they wanted to get characters from the show. That didn’t happen either. I’ve always thought that Disney wanted the show to place on Soapnet, which would debut 6 months- January 2000- after AW’s cancellation.

I got a bad feeling that Naomi’s life will be in danger while Jacob is undercover.

According to AWHP, Gloria Metcalf was played by Rosetta LeNoire, who would go on to play Mother Winslow on Family Matters.

I found it- it was before Season 2 Episode 1- for some reason it was not after the most recent episode….

Anyone having problems watching today’s episode on Paramount+? Today’s episode is missing.

I think the writers having Derek become unhinged is a red herring to throw off viewers. Just guessing but I believe that it will be revealed that Grayson is a bad guy involved in the blood plasma ring. He will turn out to be the one unhinged.

Big BTG and Y&R crossover for June - is this where Martin’s secret will be revealed? https://deadline.com/2026/01/beyond-the-gates-young-restless-crossover-episodes-cbs-1236698917/

On Christmas Eve, Rachel was at the house to clean up and redecorate the house after Aunt Liz’s Christmas tree had started a fire in the house on the previous Friday cliffhanger. Mark Singleton was in a wheelchair and walked when he saved someone in the house from the fire. I’m thinking it might have been Kevin Thatcher he rescued.

AW March 1985- Rachel is shot and develops amnesia

More 1984 AW- December 26th

Some more 1984 AW, including the New Year’s Eve scenes where Carl tried to kill Mac in the KBAY studio.

The one May 1984 episode of AW that has never surfaced on YouTube is the episode where Peter finds out Cecile was in cahoots with Donna to break up his engagement with Sally and that Cecile was marrying him for money. This causes Cecile and Donna to have a fist fight in the Love drawing room. At the end of the episode, Cecile gives her famous “As God is my witness, I’ll never tell the truth again” speech.

It looks like Doebereiner retired from P&G after being with the company for 35 years. She mentions BTG in her farewell post at the link: 35 years at P&G: A career of brand building and creat...Time to say goodbye! P&G has blessed me with an amazing, ever-changing, always interesting career for 35 years! Being an equity and creative expert on industry-leading brands, like Tide, Charmin, B

Anyone know why the Beyond the Gates channel was removed from Pluto TV? The continuous feed of the show has ended. It was always good to catch up on episodes you missed on that channel.

I thought the same exact thing- is this testing going to reveal that Kat and Eva were switched at birth? Especially with the way Kat acted today.

Today, when they mentioned that Anita’s oncologist was a Dr. Bauer, I was wondering if we were going to see a Guiding Light Bauer. Anita’s Dr. Bauer was African American. Do you think BTG should reference the other P&G shows or let the shows RIP?

Portions or most of these episodes have been on YouTube before, but they have been posted from AW’s 20th Anniversary month in May 1984: May 7th- the follow-up to Welcome Home Alice/ David Thatcher murder: May 18 & 21- Cecile and Peter’s almost wedding on Carl Hutchins yacht:

Forrest Compton (Mike Karr, EON) might have worked as a recast Gerald Davis. AW used him a few days a Mac’s brother and Adam Cory’s father for a few episodes.

Yes absolutely. Just saw this message after I posted my message. Gabet and VW resembled each other enough that they could have passed as half sisters.

They should have cast her as Rachel’s half sister, Pammy Davis from Somerset. Made her a schemer who came to Bay City with Rachel’s dad, Gerald Davis.
