Members KateW Posted March 21, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) 25 years ago (March 20, 1987) CBS aired the final episode of Capitol. The following Monday, CBS premiered Bill Bell's 2nd daytime drama The Bold and the Beautiful at 1:30 pm ET and gave a new time slot to As the World Turns, 2 pm ET. Of note is that CBS would go 22 1/2 years before cancelling a daytime drama, but would end two of them a year apart.

Members DRW50 Posted March 21, 2012 Members Share Posted March 21, 2012 Sad to say I've enjoyed these recent Capitol episodes I've seen more than any of B&B in a long time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The following Monday (March 29) was the daytime premiere at 2:30 pm ET, the time slot previously occupied by Search for Tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted May 2, 2012 Members Share Posted May 2, 2012 This has been on for a few years but I didn't see it until now for some reason.

Members vetsoapfan Posted May 30, 2012 Members Share Posted May 30, 2012 Good grief. Has it already been 25 years? I was there for the end of Capitol and the beginning of B&B, and must say, although it had its ups and downs, generally depending on who was writing it at the time, Capitol had its strengths, and could have run for many more years than it did. For a long time after its premiere, B&B was dreadful. Bill Bell seemed intent on mirroring situations and characters from the early years of Y&R, with pallid results. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted June 10, 2012 Members Share Posted June 10, 2012 In Italiano, natch, but nevertheless, a nice glimpse of the three Myrnas (including the infamous scene where Carolyn clears the guard's desk in the primetime movie, and Marla's first episode complete with recast announcement): Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 10, 2012 Members Share Posted June 10, 2012 SFK if you're going to be here then I had a few Capitol articles I wanted to ask you if you've already read - the main one is a Daytime TV article from 1982 which interviews Carolyn and Constance. They talk a little about when they first met, in the 50's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
