Katherine Chancellor's mansion has been used since late 1973 - early 1974.

On DAYS, Alice and Tom's house was used in the 1st episode and it was still the same set when Frances Reid last appeared on the show for Christmas 2007. But it hadn't appeared since I think.

Llanfair on OLTL must have changed since 1968 I guess but I have no idea. Just like GH's 7th floor.

ATWT Nancy's house has not been seen in ages.

The Salem pier on Days has been around for over 20 years. I think Days retired Alice's living room set as Christmas this past year was at Bo and Hope's. That living room set may have been the original since Days started in 1965.

And the Newman ranch even has the leaded glass window from the Brooks house to this day, so that leaded glass window has been around since episode 1!! I understand and may forgive a little chipped paint here and there, but lately, the sets have been DIRTY... and there is NO EXCUSE for such things!

I think AMC did have the original Wildwind set for a while but that has been rebuilt for HD. JHC or one of the producers of the show seems to like to pointlessly remodel and replace sets frequently. I'm still annoyed that they replaced SOS with that awful,cold and weirdly lit Confusion set.

    • Claybon said Samantha and Tyrell were initially 6 and 7, but aged up for technical reasons, first aged up to 10 or 11, and then finally to 16 and 17. Is that the first time soap children have been SORASed twice before ever airing?

      Is this someone you should be dealing with? I got the drama on lock. Leave it to me. You are my sister. You have loved & protected me every moment I've been in this world. It's my turn to stand up for you.

    • I just watched it, it was decent, looking forward to Martin's secret. Glad to get info on why the children were aged up!
    • !!! I felt the same. Martin secret has always been my favorite storyline.  I happen to Andre's wardrobe but it ages him. They have a grandpa vibe.

      , Facts! I would like to see something like that in Daytime. Both of y'all can back up off my husband! Tomas couldn't shine his shoes.
    • Brandy was an odd mish-mash of a character. A radical during her college days, then a journalist/romance writer, I believe? But not so much of a radical that she had a problem chasing millionaire Alan, LOL. The actress, JoBeth Williams, went on to have a pretty good movie and prime time career.
    • Bill attempts to use Smitty to send a veiled thread to Martin.

      Thought I’d share this video featuring Cathy Carricaburu, now Foxhoven, who played Nancy Becker from 1976-1978.

      She talks a little about her acting career starting around the 6 minute mark and briefly mentions Y&R. I’d be interesting to see some of her work on Y&R since it seems to be her most notable role.
    • I believe Henry Slesar intended that the Paige/Nola plot would play out over three to six months and Paige would be the new younger ingenue; but a few things happened. Sharon Gabet didn't renew her contract and the audience didn't like the Paige/Brian romance as it flirted with incest. Kim Hunter revealed in an interview that she as slated for 3 months but Henry asked her to stay on for an additional period. I watched Edge during this period when it originally aired and Margaret Colin was not great in the role. She seemed very green among the vets as was the dude playing Brian. He was poorly cast which was unusual for Edge.  I think Henry started to get pressure from ABC and P&G to jazz up the show given what was exploding under Monty on GH at the time. I loved Kim as Nola and all the stories it generated for others. Miles and Deborah in particular. But the next who dunnit plot in this period was not one of Henry's best (at least for me the culprit and explanation were lame for Henry). 
    • Bill and the performer are the strongest male character and actor on this show.  Yeah, how I see it too. you pair your best young female with one of the weakest screams sabotage to me.  I like this idea, it doesn't make things too predictable. I would buy that!
