I don't believe there has been a topic on here before, but for those who know, when did each soap have their first ever girl fight? The only one i really know is Passions with Faith and Tabitha back in 1999, but when did the other soaps start doing their catfights and who was involved?

Hmmmm...the first one I recall on One Life To Live was between Karen Wolek and Dorian Lord in 1979. Dorian was attempting to remove Larry Wolek from the position of Chief Of Staff at Llanview Hospital. Armed with a screw driver, she was removing Larry's name plate from his office door when Karen cam upon her .

What ensued was most unbecoming for both ladies as they tussled on the floor with each other.

I would guess that the first on GL was the Nola/Vanessa catfight and dress-ripping in 1983. Before then I can't think of two ladies on the show who would have ever done that, as GL in the 70s and early 80s generally had much more enervated and quiet women.

Did Marland ever do any catfights on AS THE WORLD TURNS?

I wonder what Y&R and B&B's first ones were? Jill and Kay would seem like the natural ones, but you never know...

I don't know if it was a Dynasty type brawl but when Susan was sleeping with John when he was separated from Lucinda, they got into an altercation which resulted in Lucinda knocking her off a stool or something, and that's how she became addicted to painkillers.

The first one on AMC that I am aware of is Erica and Natalie fighting over Jeremy. I am sure there had to have been ones before that, probably involving Erica and Brooke maybe?

The first Sunset Beach catfight was between Annie and Meg in Bette's apartment in '97, and the second one I remember was once again Annie and Meg in '99 in Surf Central. I don't know why, but I can't remember any other ones.

On DAYS, I know of Liz/Maggie's and Liz/Marie's, but I find it hard to believe Julie didn't ruffle someone's feathers enough to get someone slap happy. I think the Julie/Susan rivalry ended too soon though. Maybe Julie/Brooke? Or Mary Anderson and someone else is a possibility as well.

The first I remember from AMC:

Thanks for finding that! It's the superb Melissa Leo, as Cliff's sister. Considering how disliked those Nina recasts were by fans, I wonder how many at the time were secretly cheering Linda on.

The clip cuts off right before Nina throws hot water from a kettle in Linda's face.

There was like a new Nina every 6 months. The viewers were not accepting of anyone other than Taylor Miller.

Damn!

All My Children seemingly never hesitated to take a page out of Dynasty's book where catfights are concerned lol

What was the first GH catfight?

GH has never done that many of them, if I recall correctly.

I remember a LOT of Bobbie/Lucy catfights, and some Bobbie/Cheryl....And a couple Monica/Tracy ones. But other than that, I don't remember many on GH.
