Another World Discussion Thread

I don't think I did know about the script. A nice memento.

Regarding  the firings, I saw that the Wikipedia entry for Sarah Cunningham says it is the same day for both but I didn't see that anywhere else and there doesn't seem to be any citation linked. It does seem inauspicious for there to be that kind of sudden turnover in the cast right away but I suppose soaps with their ensemble casts can recover pretty well.

I notice that tomorrow TCM is airing the Julius Caesar in which Douglass Watson plays the small role of Octavius.

Wow, I gotta' give them credit for mentioning the Matthews family as AW's original core family.  Because whether anyone likes it or not, without Jim and Mary Matthews (and their three kids) there would be no Another World.  And obviously, whoever put this publication together was aware of that.  To be honest, that kind of surprises me.  But thank you (whoever you are) for acknowledging AW's history...

Hopefully there will be photos and stories from this event.

As for being blocked, posters are entitled to do that. Just as everyone else is entitled to post freely (within guidelines)

I enjoy most of the posts and those that I disagree with or dislike, I simply move on. Don't think it's worth my time to be annoyed/upset.

Are you talking about someone puttin you on Ignore? Here on SON? If not, blocked where?

But, anyway, their loss & who cares about them, whoever they are. You don't need them. Your post are fine. Screw them is what I say. Keep being yourself. And, now here's the one pic a friend has sent me. Two Jamie Frames!

TIL - from the NYT wedding announcement of Marcia McCabe and Chris Goutman (of course, they've divorced since) - She is a granddaughter of the late Thomas Bayard McCabe, chairman of the Scott Paper Company, and of the late Arthur H. Motley, president and publisher of Parade Publications.  That's quite a pedigree.

And @Mona Kane Croft, keep on truckin'.  Those who ignore you are missing out.  I mean, the show's been cancelled for 25 years, if we're not going to talk about the specifics of history, what's left to discuss?

    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point. 
    • At this point Y&R's next step is to go fully green screen and have the actors Zoom from home.
    • I was just taking about this in the Y&R thread - they desperately need better studio space. 
    • Errol posted that Ed Scott retired
