I don't think it was Y&R. Davis was a huge fan of GL and wrote a letter to the show. At the end of the letter, she complimented Lisa Brown (Nola Reardon), saying she "has it."

As for others:

Roy Rogers and his wife Dale Evans were huge GL fans.

Nancy Curlee (former Headwriter) was a fan before she wrote the show.

And then later on, here would go on do appear on OLTL as gambler Chip Warren.

In 1992 (I think), Reba McEntire appeared as herself on OLTL, and I think they made her an old high school sweetheart of Bo. She was also on Luna's radio show as well I believe.

And of course, Rosanne had Clint (the Clint Richie version), Bo, and Cord appear in a fantasy sequence of her show in character where they all fought over her.

Bette Davis was definitely an ATWT fan.SOD had a series in the 80's interviewing celebs into soaps and MS Davis praised the show and the actors,particularly Kathryn Hays(Kim)

Tallulah Bankhead was a fan of EON.Any posters who don't know Tallulah should google her immediately!!

Aretha was into Y&R and wanted to make an appearance.Bill Bell suggested a part in the Nina/Molly teen pregnancy story but Aretha wanted something more flashy.

Liberace was a Y&R fan and later appeared on AW.

Jimmy Carter's mom (can't think of her name)was a big AMC fan

    • 6-3   I almost let my system just delete the episode just like with B&B. I am now questioning if I should have. lol.   I just can't believe that Cole sat there and started to get sick and then only Victoria off and ran off and everyone basically went back to what they were doing at Nikki's birthday party. Cole was too much of a vet character for that. And now story back off-screen.   I did chuckle at how much Victor pay Kyle dust. And now Kyle with this deal and a promise to leave town if he hurts Claire. smh. As if Victor isn't going to make that happen.   It was lovely to see Ashley. And actually (misdressed and all) Abby.    And I liked Claire's dress. 
    • Oh. That. I pretend that never happened.

      I did think of another possibility. Did India ever sleep with Alan? They kind of toyed with pairing them up, but I'm not sure they ever became lovers.
    • While I do love the chaotic energy that is Kat vs Lesile, it is a bit extra. Sheltered, virginal Kat who plays it safe from her man to her wardrobe understands that Leslie is dangerous, but she's out here showing up everywhere and anywhere that Lesile is to be found and actively going to places where she is alone? I mean Kat doesn't even act a little afraid or intimidated by Leslie. Meanwhile, big Ole Derek out here begging for his and Ashley's life to Jacob.  As for Dani, I didn't see it that way. Dani and Bill were together for 30 years and shared a family. I believe there was real love there at one point. Bill is still an ass and Dani is still crazy, but realizing she may lose him and her daughter's may lose their dad definitely struck a chord.
    • Funny I randomly saw Kami’s lengthy post about the 44th anniversary of the Walton’s finale last week pop up in my news feed on Facebook. A few inaccuracies to her post but overall it was pretty insightful and interesting to read. 
    • Well, depending on rewrites...Jennifer Richards potentially slept with Brandon and Alan. It does feel like we're forgetting someone, but then again, maybe I'm confusing that with brothers, which would include a lot more.
    • Maybe it’s me, and the fact that RC isn’t at the helm, but since Cwikly and Ford have taken over I’ve noticed the show doing a lot of things differently directing wise, and since the storyline of John’s demise began, the show has been using different scores, and dare I say better ones than this time last year. It’s interesting and I wonder if the any of it is Noel Maxam’s influence before being promoted.
    • I think Nicole is about to figure out what's going on between Andre and Dani.
    • @Efulton thank you. I don't know how I missed it or didn't recall it.  I'll blame amnesia . Anyway @Errol Could the newer thread be merged to the existing? Thanks in advance.
    • I just finished watching and I have to admit, not once did I find myself wondering who wasn't there. Quick question for anyone who followed this better than I did: was it only Andrew who rescued Cat and John from Clyde, or was Shane involved too? The reactions during their scenes today felt a little off to me. I know it was meant to be vague, but I didn't find it strange that they already knew each other.  
    • Yeah, financially, Luna is in better shape than Deacon and Sheila.   -- Scott Clifton must have decided to chew the scenery in every scene of this "Liam is Dying" storyline. Yikes.
