The opening seems,,,well fine. It's not mind blowing, but just fine. The logo SUCKS. I hate that font. (GL wins in that department) It looks like what they would use for the the current promo sequence, not the opening for the show. The version I heard during the mid show bumper reminded me of the music they used during the 80s. The opening music needs tweaking.

my biggest problem is the pairings. i actually dont midn the new opening because it is way better. actually i like the concept of it. i kinda the farm theme in the back and all that. and i like the pairing of the couples thet belong together. but i dont think everyone needs to be paired. people like Katie that gets a new man all the time should be solo. People like Luke with no real romantic pairing should be alone, same with Alison, so i guess i can see why they paired them together.

i guess it can work as long they update it every few months, but we all know they wont.

I've watched it several times and let me just say this...

Standing alone, the music and the visuals are WAY better than the last one. Really like it.

With the history of AS THE WORLD TURNS, it just falls flat. This opening has absolutely nothing to do with the title or the premise of the show really. And adding old clips doesn't make it recapture its identity. The opening just doesn't fit this show.

So, as far as opening title sequences, it's really REALLY good. Make no mistake about that. It just doesn't have a damn thing to do with AS THE WORLD TURNS.

How I long for "Jelinda's Theme" and the changing seasons.

Multiple versions of the opening are expected to be aired.

We saw the "full" version of Opening A yesterday.

Today we saw the "short" version of Opening A.

There should be a "full" version of Opening B.

As well as a "short" version of Opening B.

And there may be a "C" opening which features the characters who don't appear in the short versions.

      Yes, Nicole. DRAG HER!
    • Writers: Teresa Zimmerman Lynn Martin Director: Steven Williford
    •  Yeah, he is still dressed like Martin. He looks great, though.  Cute picture. Sober up, cause we need the tea.
    • Well, Claire did rig Rick's test results, but it was to flunk. They actually managed to get his correct results back after they were thrown into Cedar's furnace...I think? Everyone knew Claire changed them and Rick passed so that rewrite never made sense.   I agree. Pratt always seems "edgy" on screen (and her Locker Room interview prooved that it came from her personality.) I liked Claire causeing trouble and love Meta ringing her beads. Its just too bad that Abby left and they kinda just forgot Claire existed. 
    • Oh so they did sleep together. The retcon was just the medical boards? That makes sense. I think Susan Pratt, while a good actress, was just an unlikeable presence onscreen and soaps wrote to that most of the time. There was some potential for more with her when she returned in that stint, as Pratt was at least interesting to watch and caused some conflict for the stifled Bauers. Instead of pairing her with Alan and then disappearing I might have had her hook up with Danny. I think there was a lot of flirtation with Bolger's Philip, but they never crossed the line.
    • I haven't seen Melchior in the role, but it would be astounding if she's worse than Linn. Her rivalry with Stephanie was sidelined IMO because Linn was one of the few actors who didn't have chemistry with, nor raise her game, when paired with Susan Flannery. To be fair, she did show some signs of life in scenes opposite Darlene Connelly, but way too little too late. It feels like Bell finally woke up after the Thorne switchover and sidelined the Kristin character with Mick to 1 or 2 appearances a week. As a result, the show improved by leaps and bounds after she was inexplicably at the center of the show for most of 1989. Margo is so much more enjoyable when not tied to that albatross. Even Clarke is watchable with less Kristin interaction. She can't exit stage left soon enough. As for the new Thorne, I agree that Norcross feels like a Forrester a lot more than Thrachta, even if the latter is a better actor.
    • The cast said that scenes were filmed over a few weeks, with a preplanned hiatus in the middle, and it was all out of order.  I would *guess* that they used Chandler when they could get him? They also had to work around Leo Howard getting married around the time these episodes were filmed, but I guess they worked it out since Tate appeared.
    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
