I think what sets SCTV's soap parodies apart from others', aside from SCTV's general level of brilliance, is their pinpoint accuracy.  You can tell they actually WATCHED the soaps they're parodying and aren't just going by what they've read in TV Guide or something.

Exactly.  The camera work and even the pacing are exactly what you would've seen on Y&R at that time.  Just as "Heys of Our Lives" really nailed how DAYS was all about the closeups back then, and "Days of the Week" resembled bits of AW and SFT.

Sharon & Nina have a scene together on May 23, 1996 (episode #5875) : "Sharon, I would like to take this opportunity to also wish you all the best" says Nina at Nikki and Brad's wedding (given that Sharon got married 3 months before). It looks like they already know a little each other, but I can't figure what occasion they could have first met. They are both present at the July 4, 1994 (episode #5403) party held at the ranch, but do not exchange any replies. Also a year later, while Ryan was present at this party, there is a scene of first meeting between Sharon and Ryan, in episode #5640 of June 23, 1995.

Chantal Lebasque's first appearance : April 18, 2000 (episode #6862)

Gary Garver -what a sleaze. Almost felt sorry for poor Brenda having to laugh along at his smutty  'jokes'.

"I made a film called 'Welcome To My Home"

Just classic Brenda along with a bunch of other nonsense.

I want to know how she has supported herself all these years?

She always begins these things with, "I was Miss California!"  

If they dig any deeper, she (reluctantly) admits that she was "Miss California USA", which is evidently a step-DOWN from the Miss America pageant. 

But if you look at the "Miss California USA" winners in the late 1960s and early 1970s, none of them was named Brenda Dickson.

EB from tvinsider:
When pressed to name something he wishes he could have played more in his four-plus decades, Braeden responds, “Well, I kind of regret that there wasn’t this ongoing relationship with Ashley [Abbott, Eileen Davidson] — that could have always been looming in the background — but other than that, to be frank with you, no. I have enormous respect for the writers because I would not want to do what they do.”

WOW.  Has he ever said that before?
