Just picked up the special SOD/SOW AMC tribute issue...

It's ok but has kind of a tacky look to it to be honest. It recaps key points from every year, has some nice family trees, has the major weddings (Erica and Adam get their own pages), goes through the major couplings (Greenleo but no Rylee FTW!) but most of it is interviews and quotes from stars past and present. I guess that's interesting but it's not what I most look for in these types of "companions."

ETA: It does have some other subsections like famous alums, famous guests, reel to real couplings, stories with real heart, the dual roles, the best villains, on location images, in memoriam, Emmy wins, and what they call the most iconic 10 images from the show's vault.

They can have her she lost her edge after the middle 90s.... What is really wrong with Daytime the constant recycling of used people is really getting out of hand from Writer to Directors. Why can they bring on new people instead of bring old people who really don't know what to do anymore .

I've met JBW and she seemed like a very pleasant lady. She's a Texan and she's got a bit of a drawl, her late husband was actor Trey Wilson (Raising Arizona). Although she's responsible for seeing talent submitted by their representation and presenting her picks to the higher ups for contract roles, we must remember that she is not ultimately responsible for who gets the role. There is pressure from her superiors to make decisions based on superficial reasons and she will admit that the best actor does not always get the job.

    • I think they tended to run the cast list once a week, but I don't know if it had a consistent day.
    • Does Search for Tomorrow ever list the cast in its end credits? I watched about fifteen videos from 1985 to look at the cast credits at the end and I never saw any except for Mary Stuart's credit. I try not to google cast members if there's a chance I might watch a soap so I don't spoil exits.
    • Jeez louise, they overdid it with the music in late 1985. Wendy's self-loathing episode on Dec. 6 is "underscored" (if we can call it that) to the end theme from Scarface, of all movies.
    • It's always hot when he's onscreen 
    • True. So it must be the heat.   LOL. Oh, you. 
    • That's a lousy ad. They didn't even choose good headshots. That's the least attractive I've seen Gregory Harrison look in his entire career. He looked hotter on GH last year! And CBS would keep bringing over ABC or NBC actors (more often ABC) for their soaps, further gutting their identities. Sad all around. Of course, they are the only network to have more than one soap on the air, so who am I to judge?
    • He always looks a snack to me lol!  Yes Blue is his color for sure! Those arms of his are huge *must not think dirty thoughts* 
    • Maybe trying to ramp up the nostalgia factor? The only original characters left on the show were Angela, Lance, and Chao-Li. But FC hadn’t been watched by too many since 1987 and the finale didn’t bring back any old living characters like Emma, Cole, Peter Stravos etc. 
    • 5-13   That was kinda meh except for the coda. Liam figuring out that Hope knows he's dying. And ending it on that. Good acting.   Oh, Luna. smh. But I guess I do look forward to see how she expects to wiggle her way into Finn's life. And uh oh at Sheila and seeing the wheels start to turn again. Honestly, he's been looking like a whole snack the last few weeks. And I can't decide if it's just the heat here lol or if he's just been working out more than usual.  But blue and shades of it has been such a great color on him. 
    • For the Nurses Ball, I don't like what GH has done in recent years having U/5 professional dancers in the back of all the staged numbers -- nobody we recognize but they are wearing medical garb wardrobe as they dance alongside the GH characters. I'd prefer to see only the GH characters dancing and singing imperfectly.
