KA might as well sign with GH. I don't see her acting career going any where after the soaps. If there is consensus that a woman is not good looking, she needs to be considered talented to get even minor roles. KA is neither. Her only hope is one of those celebrity reality shows.

I'm always going to be on KA's side by default, as I loved her as a kid and feel like I grew up with her, so I do have a bit of an attachment to her as Starr. That being said, yeah, I'd be surprised if GH makes it past September. Nonetheless, I wish her all the luck in the world. Lord knows she's lucky to be so young and getting paid for doing something she loves--as someone who graduated college about a year ago, I wish I could say that right now! laugh.png

Speaking of which, I don't think I posted this here yet. This YouTuber, DamnTingTong, posts a lot of OLTL related cartoons made in the style of amine, using computer generated voices. The same voice is used for this special video she (he?) made when it was announced that these OLTLers were going to GH. I think you guys might like it!

ETA: KDP said on her FB page last night that she spoke to KA on the phone recently (she called KA her "daughter"--AWW wub.png ), and KA told her she was LOVING it there at GH and that Kassie would too. I've always loved the bond those two have! smile.png

Agreed, but perhaps once her soap life is over, she will be wise enough to take classes to really show her how it's done. By then she will have the means and the experience, so one never knows...

She's not the only one to go that route. Linda Dano anyone?

As much as I'd like to see KDP still acting, you can't fault her for taking the opportunities she has and running with them. I give her props for being a smart business woman and going for it.

I absolutely loved Linda Dano on AW for years. With acting opportunities not only dwindling in NYC but for women in general after a certain age (unfortunately), I am glad to see this woman still able to be successful. I'd rather see her doing this than reading a story about her being unemployed and out of money.

And to be fair, Kassie did that infomercial long before cancellation.

Speaking of infomercials, I actually sat through the Jack Wagner/Krista Tesreau one a few nights ago and it was a lot of fun hearing those hits of the eighties. tongue.png

Absolutely. And I think she's still doing the Daytime Divas isn't she? (although they might have to change their name since none of them are in daytime now)

Please don't take my comment as a slam - you work where you can find work. But there doesn't seem many doors open for aging actresses, especially in those from soap land. Sad really, because soap experience should be measured in dog years.

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      By Broderick · Posted

      Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol

      The Golden Girls 30 years later

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.

      @Maxim Great to see your mini-reviews again. There are a number of clips on Youtube of Janice's slow mental breakdown, especially as we go into January 1980. Christine Jones is just superb. She played the hell out of that role. Something which isn't referenced as much later on is how Mitch pushed Janice's doubts and mental instability for his own ends...until suddenly he didn't want to anymore (I guess he caught on with the audience and the show became wary). I don't want to post a bunch of clips, but this one has a very good confrontation between Rachel and Janice.

      This has a good scene around 7 minutes in where you can see Janice struggling internally with her need to identify herself so much by the men around her, all of which helps lead to her crackup.

      It really made Oscar the Doorman seem like an imbecile.   I think the show's unusual format & subject manner is what makes EON often seem less "dated" and "old-fashioned" than other shows from that time period.  It never attempted to be especially "trendy" or "modern" -- and its film noir style is pretty timeless.

      Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      Dallas, Dynasty, Knots and Falcon Crest all had good runs but by 85 they had seen better days. I think they were a victim of the format. After several seasons seeing the same characters front and center viewers were bored. What was once fascinating grew predictable. JR, Alexis etc had to be front and center and after a while their schemes and shtick grew repetitive. JR remarrying Sue Ellen, Alexis constantly trying to get he better of Blake etc Unlike daytime, there wasn't the flexibility to bring in other stories and characters and maybe let the likes JR go backburner. That same mentality also invaded daytime with characters like  Sonny and Victor still peddling the same stuff after decades. I guess the same could be said for MSW eg every week Jessica encounters a crime and solves it,but I think viewers come to that format with a different mindset.

      Daphnee and Trisha did a live stream on Instagram and confirmed they find out if the show gets picked up in May. This pretty much confirms they're on the primetime schedule like the Bell soaps. Fingers crossed we get a multi-year renewal announcement soon!  https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJSsYb7PDv8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

      I don't think Lois the character was there.  The Lois we knew from the 90s has pretty much died with this  Gio story crap.
