Members RobynIsHere Posted July 8, 2008 Members Share Posted July 8, 2008 Perhaps Sheila could be revitalized by a stint in Oakdale or Springfield. But Kimberlin lives in Las Vegas and liked the easy commute to LA for B&B and Y&R...dunno if she'd want to return to the East Coast again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 9, 2008 Members Share Posted July 9, 2008 Oakdale is now in the same universe as Y&R (since Y&R's Michael Baldwin visited a while back). But what about GL? Has it ever had ties to any other show? It is kind of cool, because ATWT ties to AW (both in original creation, and in the movement of Jake Mackinnon and others to Oakdale after AW was cancelled). Then Y&R ties to ATWT (through Baldwin), and B&B ties to Y&R through shared characters. I like that all these shows inhabit a common universe. We know (thanks to Skye Chandler, and also Linda Dano and others) that the ABC shows tie together. Of the current universe, does that mean only GL and DOOL have no ties to other "soap universes"?

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 9, 2008 Members Share Posted July 9, 2008 GL has ties to both ATWT and AW. Two Bauers crossed over to AW in the 70's, and GL's location, Springfield, is mentioned on ATWT from time to time and Oakdale is also mentioned on GL from time to time. Stephen Schnetzer, who portrayed Cass Winthrop on AW, has crossed over to both ATWT and GL as that same character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 9, 2008 Members Share Posted July 9, 2008 Oh, perfect! That leaves only DOOL alone, I guess. Which is fitting, given its orphan status on NBC. I'm such a nerd, I'd like to see bridges between the ABC and CBS universes. But given the *feud*, I doubt that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 9, 2008 Members Share Posted July 9, 2008 I remember hearing that the location of DAYS (Salem) and the location of AW (Bay City) were mentioned on an episode of Santa Barbara, so they all exist in the same universe, I guess.

Members RobynIsHere Posted July 9, 2008 Members Share Posted July 9, 2008 It's funny to think that a story like AW's Lumina takes place in the same universe as B&B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
