Administrator Toups Posted February 10, 2010 Administrator Share Posted February 10, 2010 Word. Reilly-1 will always be my favorite soap era. 1993-1997 was masterful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 10, 2010 Administrator Share Posted February 10, 2010 I miss that, the long days. A lot of it had to do with saving money. Sets would stay up for long periods of time, less money of wardrobe. I've always liked that strategy of having long days. I know if I ever HW a soap, I would have those long days.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 10, 2010 Members Share Posted February 10, 2010 Same here, though we got out at 2 on Fridays. But soaps all do this--OLTL is having yet another high school musical in May--why not wait for the Summer if they must? The official USA School system page said this about hours there: "The school day in elementary schools is usually from 8.30am to 3pm or 3.30pm, with an hour for lunch. In high schools, hours are usually from 7.30am to 2pm or 2.30pm" Jesus--I found starting high school at 8:30 (7:30 if we had any morning extracurricular classes) hard enough...

Members catsmeouch Posted February 20, 2010 Members Share Posted February 20, 2010 My favourite soap of all time. I am glad that JER got to finally execute his true vision for the show when it moved to DirecTV. He could finally tell outrageous stories without having to kowtow to NBC execs.

Members Khan Posted February 20, 2010 Members Share Posted February 20, 2010 But - and here, I have to give JER some credit - I think JER loved daytime so much that even those cancellations must've bothered the heck out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 21, 2010 Members Share Posted February 21, 2010 I know nothing of this time for Passions--you mean stories becameeven moreoutlandish and ghoulish than the hermaphrodite,bisexual, incest loving serial rapist?

Members catsmeouch Posted February 21, 2010 Members Share Posted February 21, 2010 Yes! Valerie the hermaphrodite convinced Julian (her father) to sleep with her...Julian didn't know they were related. Later, Valerie shifted into Vincent, and Vincent gave birth to their baby! Also, Viki cut off Julian's "Little Julian", and a drugged-up Eve sewed it on backwards, upside down, and with some of it cut off! But in the final episode, Kay used her magic powers to repair it. Passions was sooooo crazy on DirecTV! I loved it! You couldn't miss an episode because it was so wild! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
