  1. Thank you, Dan! I know about Beverlee, Macdonald Carey in '65, Dana Andrews on Bright Promise, Rosemary Prinz on AMC & How to Survive but someone has submitted 3 "with so-and-so" supposed openings, for Donald May, Mary Stuart & yes Eileen Fulton. Just got to mark them off the list! Here goes Donald May. 📋✅
  2. Thanks for the info. I tried to get an answer about how to go about this or if to, either one, & I could not get any reply at all from the Academy! We will see. @jcar03 Thanks for posting that list. At least it does show some posthumous.
  3. I have a question about the show opening. Have you ever seen an opening that showed Search for Tomorrow "with Mary Stuart"?
  4. I don't usually post there but I have a question and then I'll be out of your way. Have you ever seen a show opening that showed The Edge of Night "with Donald May"?
  5. I don't usually post here but I have a question & then I'll be out of your hair. (Although I was a fan & do miss the show.) Have you ever seen a show opening that showed As the World Turns "with Eileen Fulton"? Thanks!
  6. Okay, thanks anyway, for replying.
  7. Why do you, or anyone, think Allen Potter fired Jane Eliot? It never made any sense to me that he stopped a major storyline in progress that way. Do the ratings in the new thread back him up that the show wasn't getting enough out of said "3 Carries" storyline? I am woefully behind on the new ratings threads but I know you are up to date.
  8. Usually I ignore your rantings but when you tell lies about me I must speak up. No, I do not spam. Say all the nonsense you want about me but do not tell lies.
  9. Thank you. This is the third thing I've caught Bing Chat being incorrect about AMC specifically! Someone involved with AI programming suggested to me that they weren't given much soap info. I'm sure that is so!
  10. Oh, yeah, I knew that was your point!! And, you might be completely correct! I am sure there would have been Roman Catholic pushback! To me it is just like P&G saying they were going to let Pete Lemay do a gay story way back when & then after preparations were made, pulling the greenlight. It's not that they didn't go forward with the controversial issue, it's how they went about it. So to me they never should have gone along in development as if they were going to do this, that they were already squirrelly about. That's just leading the creative types down a garden path which is going to fall right off a cliff! And, endgame, always drop the story & try to save the show.
  11. It's interesting & it adds a dimension but it really is splitting a hair. Bottom line, once they refused to go forward with those 2 storylines, she was outta there. Also, and this may just be piling on. But I believe that she was quite cognizant that doing LIAMST pushed her over into doing work for the third of 3 networks. She & Fred Silverman were the first to work for all 3. But, once she'd done it, she didn't have to keep on doing it. Very interesting that she was angry with Bill Bell and absolutely sounds like her.
  12. OH! Thank you so much!!! No wonder I didn't tumble to it. Never heard it. Never read any DAYS fanfic. Thanks again.
  13. https://chng.it/JBsh8Y9tkk I am soliciting your vote. This is a petition where we are trying to get a Posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award for Beverlee McKinsey. Thank you for your consideration. And, please pass this along if you are somewhere it would be appropriate to do so.

  15. Okay, I have Kate Roberts Reed Kiriakis Brady Dimera Dimera Brady DOOL So better enlighten me who & what Winograd is because I don't know!! Thanks!
  16. Finally a mainstream article that gets it right about scabs & Fi-core status! https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2023/08/12/scabs-actors-writers-strike-breakers/
  17. Okay, here is an EON website with storyline synopses. I believe they are monthly, not weekly. But still a great resource back all the way to 1956 & only missing one year, 1970, for some unknown reason. https://edgehomepage.com/storylines.html
  18. Here is my favorite picture from the end times. I believe it is backstage at the Daytime Emmys.
  19. I began this just for fun but I think it does illustrate a serious flaw in American soaps. We know that some people ridicule & criticize soaps & when we see something that they point at derisively, it is annoying to think they might be right. Nikki Reed Foster Bancroft DiSalvo Newman Abbott Landers Newman Newman Chow Sharpe Newman Y&R Olivia Spencer Lewis Lewis Spaulding Spaulding GL Katie Frazier Coleman Kasnoff Snyder Snyder ATWT B&B's Brooke is the undisputed Queen Bee of getting married but not staying married! That is 16 marriages! Yep. That's obscene.
  20. At one point Brooke was getting married every year (2001 - 2006 IIRC or the Forrester Jones Forrester Forrester Forrester Marone bit lol) OMG! I honestly had no idea. So Brooke is the Queen Bee of Marrying but not got the hang of staying married? Moving to Erica, Bing Chat says her 10 marriages were in this order: Jeff Martin Phillip Brent Nick Davis Tom Cudahy Adam Chandler Travis Montgomery Jackson Montgomery Dimitri Marick Chris Stamp Jack Montgomery
  21. Thanks! No wonder I didn't remember who Lowe was! And I must say leave it to Oakdale to add the truly complicated twists.
  22. Meg Dale Harper Andrews Aleata Hart from Love of life Blake Thorpe Spaulding Spaulding Marler Marler. GL
  23. Excellent! So good. Fun. Now I have to try to remember who Carly Lowe's husband was! @AMCOLTLLover Wonderful! @kalbir Thank you for nailing down Victor & Nikki! @dragonflies I'll look at her Twitter profile. (Refuse to say UglyX) Even have a blue soap bird!
  24. @slick jones Speaking of deleting, I am my own tweets when I was verbally abusive to Hulu Support. Also, another thing in the works about the divine Beverlee, is that we're going to be mounting a fan campaign to try to get her a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award from the Daytime Emmys.
