Members jacks Posted December 27, 2007 Members Share Posted December 27, 2007 New Opening Sequences? Does anybody know if the P&G Soaps will be getting a makeover and new theme songs and or opening visuals when the new year comes? If they are going to update their look with their new sets and everything to look like MTV's the Hills, the current openings may not fit very well. I think it would be cool to see GL with something different from the hands thing but if ATWT changes, we would have never seen the alternate versions with other cast members. Change is good though sometimes I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted December 27, 2007 Members Share Posted December 27, 2007 I think GL needs a new opening ASAP. Please dear Soap Gods, let GL get a new opening! The ATWT one is still pretty new, so I don't think that will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sedrick Posted December 27, 2007 Members Share Posted December 27, 2007 Lord knows WORLD TURNS needs a new one ASAP! I like the music, but the visuals aren't attractive to me...something about all that orange on top of cornfields... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stenbeck212 Posted December 27, 2007 Members Share Posted December 27, 2007 Well, this can't be happening if the "we're so poor that we're collecting television welfare" spiel from P&G is true. I have come to appreciate the fact that GL's opening reflects the credo of the show, and not an exercise in vanity for the actors. ATWT has criminally excluded many veteran contract players from theirs for months, but I'd scrap performers and the golden haze for good if the globe would turn in space again.

Members UKBoi Posted December 27, 2007 Members Share Posted December 27, 2007 Maybe GL will resurrect the opening that ran up until the 70th anniversary, the one that used clips from the show mixed with the CBS promo shoots and it was a montage type thing with a blue tinge...it was really nice and didn't run for long enough. That could be updated as I thought the one with the hands was only supposed to run for a year...has it been a year yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Matt P. Posted December 27, 2007 Members Share Posted December 27, 2007 I think that they should use a fan opening. There's tons of professional openings that look amazing. One for example is this one: And with ATWT, just update the character shots. The 6 second black background with no theme is just really dissapointing!

Members stenbeck212 Posted December 28, 2007 Members Share Posted December 28, 2007 As far as I'm concerned, slideshows of stills only work for AMC, so I'm not quite on board with that one. But I do agree about fan ingenuity. There's a YouTuber named BigSingh who has kicked ass with amazing credit sequences for ATWT. I'm dying to see his take on an opening montage.

Members Chris B Posted December 28, 2007 Members Share Posted December 28, 2007 Ellen Wheeler said GL will get a new opening for the new year, but it will include elements of the current one. I'm not sure what's going on with ATWT. I think their opening is horrible and it's so odd that it debuted missing half of the cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jacks Posted December 28, 2007 Author Members Share Posted December 28, 2007 Chris, do you know if that will be starting next week in the new year? If so, I better start watching! Where did you here about this? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted December 28, 2007 Members Share Posted December 28, 2007 It was in SOD's preview for the new year. She was tight lipped, but said they have lots of exciting changes planned and will be keeping the Find Your Light thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAYJAY Posted December 30, 2007 Members Share Posted December 30, 2007 I like Matt's idea. Maybe GL should hold out a contest for a new opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I like about the ATWT one is the music, there's something about it that I just love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted December 30, 2007 Members Share Posted December 30, 2007 I miss the spinning globe at the end of the show. I hate the half credits. Why did they get rid of the closing? Oh yeah to give more promos to primetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
