Members Vizion Posted April 17, 2011 Members Share Posted April 17, 2011 The first clip doesn't have any sound unfortunately so I didn't post it. There are 6 segments, each about 30 minutes. I'll post them all in the replies William Bell (1927-2005) recalls his first soap opera writing job at "Guiding Light" and his working relationship with creator Irna Phillips, and working closely with Agnes Nixon. He talks about co-creating "As the World Turns," and "Another World" with Ms. Phillips, as well as becoming head writer for "Days of Our Lives" in 1965. Among his greatest achievements, Mr. Bell speaks about his creative relationship with wife/writing partner Lee Phillip Bell, in creating two successful daytime soap operas, "The Young and the Restless," and "The Bold and the Beautiful." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsczFurPlfc&feature=relmfu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5REeadtgTrQ&feature=relmfu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea this existed and never saw it posted here. He seriously talks for three hours about daytime, various shows, and various writers/creators, it's fabulous! With the end of soaps drawing near, I found his comments particularly fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
