Members Noel Posted January 20, 2023 Members Share Posted January 20, 2023 Yeah, Annie was as dull as dishwater. Honestly, if they wrote Annie off before she immersed herself into a beautiful swan, I would've been like, "Bye, bitch!" Yes, I was a personal witness and saw her transform into the beautiful woman she was destined to be. Good times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 20, 2023 Members Share Posted January 20, 2023 If I ever find my scans (if someone else doesn't post it first) I'll share it. She basically just describes it as a low period for her because she was sitting in makeup and they were telling her how they needed her to look old. She was like fine, whatever, as they put grey streaks into her hair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted January 20, 2023 Members Share Posted January 20, 2023 Yes to all of this! Annie’s descent and Dinah’s descent in 1997 were absolutely amazing to watch as two characters who I previously couldn’t stand suddenly became amazing to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members robbwolff Posted January 20, 2023 Members Share Posted January 20, 2023 Reva was known as Rebecca when she lived with the Blume family in Goshen. I believe Buzz also showed up in Goshen and connected with Reva/Rebecca. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Noel Posted January 20, 2023 Members Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Yeah, I remember ghost Reva before her Rebecca excuse. She was at Cross Creek where only Josh could see her alongside with his gorgeous wife-to-be Annie. And while my sweet little Annie Dutton was standing on a throw rug, Reva (the ghost bitch) intentionally yanked the rug from right under her which caused my poor Annie to fall.

Members ~bl~ Posted January 21, 2023 Members Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) In NYC, Santa Barbara moved from the 3 pm time slot years before the cancellation, so it was not against Guiding Light. I was someone who watch GH and SB before dipping my toes in with Guiding Light, and only gave it a chance after SB no longer was on after school and GH the show I watched when I was younger and at the neighbors was truly annoying. Yes I grew up in a house without cable… the first time we saw Cynthia Watros in Gl, she was a quick hook up of Matt Reardon, but nothing really happened, and was supposed to be an unrelated waitress character. Then she was recurring as Nurse Annie, JFP was forced to bring Zimmer back for a short stint hence the ghost, but then JFP was gone to AW the P&G producer switch and Laibson with McTavish as head wronger (intentionally misspelled) were hired. Then Annie and Josh became extremely saccharine with LOWHAD land of wishes hopes and dreams carousel set, while Reva was Amish with a family that wasn’t the Yoders. The audience didn’t seem split pro Reva/Josh reuniting and Annie/Josh together as there was another faction of people who just did not like either pairing as they took up a lot of screen time and neither part of the story was all that interesting during the fall of 95.

Members Liberty City Posted January 21, 2023 Members Share Posted January 21, 2023 Just watching the March 2005 intervention with Dinah... and whew. Gina Tognoni did some amazing work. David Kreizman & Donna M. Swajeski really wrote a good script. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted January 25, 2023 Members Share Posted January 25, 2023 The Guiding Light made its debut 86 years ago today, on January 25, 1937. While all soaps have their ups and down during their lifespans, to me, TGL boasted the longest, continuous run of quality in the genre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
