Former CBS?/P&G? PR flack Alan Locher's many soap star livestreams via zoom on YT (including today's first OLTL one with RSW/HBS, the DePaivas and Tuc Watkins) included an AMC-centric with Cady McClain, MEK and Cady's husband Jon Lindstrom. I believe he also did a long solo one for AMC with Susan (dressed to the nines in quarantine, ofc) and has done/will be doing another. The next OLTL one next week will have the notoriously press-shy Fiona Hutchison, Andrea Evans, Tonja Walker and Ilene Kristen. There's also been several for GL/ATWT.

1987 was considered a strong year for AMC, Eric - due largely to the drama at Cortlandt Manor (the Natalie/Ross affair, and subsequent rape).

AMC hit #1 in the ratings for a week in late ‘87, I think as a result of the rape trial (NOT the Goldie Kane storyline with Erica & Silver).

Soap Opera Digest named AMC the “Most Improved Show” for 1987.

It seemed the momentum was short-lived, however, and 1988 was a bit rocky (until the epic Dixie/Adam/Brooke stuff in ‘89 gave the show another jolt).

I didn't even like half the characters these actors played but this makes me so happy. It says something about AMC's hold on the zeitgeist that it's the first of these to get mainstream backing.

I'm legit worried about Debbi Morgan, who I last saw sobbing and inconsolable about COVID-19 on Instagram. I hope she turns up if not for this event, then soon.


Very classy of Josh Duhamel. I hope Kim Delaney is in a good place to turn up sometime - she was close to Agnes to the end.

Ha I loved him and yes, always had his pink haired clip from Geri's Bag it Up video in my avatar.  A completely useless character who was on way too long, although I would prefer his storylines over Ryan's...

Aiden still looks like this. Damn he hasn't aged. He is 43 but still looks 23. 

 

After Jacob flirted and really laid it thick on Aiden he spilled some tea. Hell all of the guys seemed like they were flirting with Aiden. 

 

Why did Aiden Turner son look like Jacob Young?..lol

 

Genie and Tony weren't happy that Lucky was being recast. Tony grew to love JY in the role but Genie had a drawn out fight with Geary over it with Jacob prezent. She stormed off the set after Jacob flubbed his line. 

 

Justin Bruening wasn't happy that Jacob took his role of JR from him. Justin had been recast as JR but the producers gave Jacob the option of which character he wanted to play.

 

Daniel Pillon insulted Walt Willey during his time on Ryan's Hope. He pretty much told him he was a terrible recast. 

 

Aiden Turner couldn't remember James Baffico last name. He commented on how much he helped him as a director.

All the guys trashed the person who got AMC and OLTL canceled and Jacob mentioned AMC might return in digital form. 

 

Walt commented that it the people had waited a little longer to cancel thermals that they'd still online with GL and ATWT included.

 

There was so much more. The chat lasted 2 hours.

That’s some good tea from Jacob. Did Aiden mention his exit from AMC because didn’t he hate his exit story of Aiden going crazy and kidnapping Kendall? Also random, but I never got why the show spelled Aiden differently. They spelled it Aidan when the actor’s name was spelled Aiden. Why not just keep it the same.

Yeah Jacob spilled a lot of tea. He also talked about B&B and the transgender storyline.

 

Aiden didn't mention his exist storyline. He talked about his favorite storyline and the one that was the hardest for him to do. He still lives in the states. I believe in Georgia. Besides being hot...Aiden came off very sweet and shy(quiet). 

 

Vince mentioned his GL days and working with Beverly McKinsey and Marji Dusay.

 

Alan told him he wanted him for another chat to talk more about his GL time.

Vince mentioned his HW Megan Mctavish was at GL playing Lola when he was there.

      Search For Tomorrow Discussion Thread

      By VelekaCarruthers · Posted

      Erwin Nicholson's last episode as SFT ep was 11/21. Whitesell started 11/22/85. Erwin was on board from March 8, 1985 so less than 9 months. Whitesell lasts six months (approximately) before P&G moved him to AW for two years where he primarily worked with DePriest. Whitesell was replaced on Search by no daytime experience David Lawrence who closed out the show's last six months.

      DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      I assume in name only?  One Stormy Night wasn't exactly steamy.  If it's a literal throwback then Stephanie's writing about sexy times her own Uncle was having lol. Since I am going to surmise it's just a throwback to the name, Night Sins and Winter Heat both sound sexier.  Just saying.  I swear Jamey (and Ron) just google things and land on the first thing they like and decide it's a good throwback to history without watching it.

      I usually don't want Tide placement in the middle of an intense sad scene, but this is an interesting point

      Y&R: Old Articles

      Thanks!   Was anyone watching during this time? Wondering how Peggy’s rape played out onscreen. It just seems cruel to subject the Brooks family to this trauma a 2nd time.   Feels like the writers have already given up on the character of Jennifer, even though she sticks around another year-plus. She should be a passionate and fierce protective mother, but instead she seems just reactionary (and not even mentioned in this recap) This was also the case in ‘73 when Chris was raped. The writers are definitely more invested Stuart as the Brooks parent.

      BTG got another SNL reference at 00:50  CONTEXT (so it isn't misconstrued) in this joke swap segment, Michael Che frequently makes his white cohost Colin Jost read racist jokes written by Che.
