Lenz has never publicly spoken about any particular cult, though she did previously appear to allude to cult-like behavior at the Mosaic Church in Los Angeles, sharing that she attended the church on and off for two years and calling it out for alleged abuse on Instagram in 2021. "The level of control displayed, particularly by [leader Erwin] McManus," she wrote, "was disturbing to me and to many other people who have left Mosaic for that very reason."

I think it makes sense that there are a lot of cults in the entertainment business because they depend on others for success and careers, actors are attracted to the idea that they could control their destiny, so that are easy prey for these types of organizations.

Llanview's own Nathan Fillion (Joey Buchanan, OLTL) is joining the latest attempt at Superman from James Gunn. Fillion will play Green Lantern Guy Gardner.

^Just spitballing ideas and I could come up with storylines for Reed, Ana and Ravi without much effort…isn’t that something?

Speaking of Reed, his onscreen dad JT played by Thad Luckinbill is in a Paramount+ production called Special Ops: Lioness starring Nicole Kidman, Morgan Freeman and Zoe Saldana.

Lori Cardille (Winter Austen, EON) and Terry Alexander (Troy Nichols, OLTL) turned up on the season finale of Shudder's weekly horror marathon The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs tonight, discussing their roles in one of tonight's movies, George Romero's classic Day of the Dead. Not my tweet:

 

I haven't seen it all so if I don't know if they discussed their soap work. Joe Bob often brings up the soaps when having horror stars on like Barbara Crampton, etc. who worked on them and is surprisingly knowledgeable and respectful.

Alerted to Ben Hogestyn (ex Lucas) on the GH thread,

https://benhogestynmalibu.com/

Just checked out his website- a few nondescript caps and t shirts, a leather tote 'sold out' and some pics of previous sculptural works N/A.

A couple of tweets from years back.

Doesn't scream success to me. How many similar entrepreneurs are scrambling to make a buck in LA let alone the rest of the country.

To be fair, he's also managing the Ralph Lauren Double RL  store in Malibu, which is a huge store and kind of a big deal.

Also, fun fact, he's obviously Drake Hogestyn's stepson, but he didn't take on the Hogestyn surname until he started auditioning for parts in the entertainment industry.

    • If you ever make it to the Paley Center in NYC (fka Museum of TV and Radio), in their viewing room, you can watch Days 1/1/73 featuring Denise Alexander as Susan. It’s her last month on the show before switching to GH.
    • Overall I was impressed with this week and fall out from the revealation.  I am looking forward to seeing the Nicole/Dana showdown next week.  I do wonder if June is going to be tied to Hayley.  
    • I thought Adam and Sara got married? Although I do not remember any mention of her when Adam returned for Blake's weddings. But MA certainly got the short end of the stick storywise, as Marland's obsession with therapy reared it's head. 
    • Didn’t Meg Bennett return to SFT as a writer in the last few years. I always wondered if they tried to get her back as Liza.
    • Millette Alexander got the short end of the stick once they killed off Joe. The Justin thing was a non-starter. Then she was briefly married to Alan's corrupt lawyer and HE was killed off. She was paired briefly with Adam and that ended because she believed Holly over Roger about the rape. Definitely, Marland had zero interest in her except as the therapist for the many, many of his female characters who needed therapy. It's not odd she left the show. One of the rare 1978 episodes on YT shows Alan going to Cedars for a physical check-up. He ends up with Sarah as his doctor. In between making mysoginistic comments about women doctors, he also openly flirts with her. It's very obvious they were chem testing Sarah and Alan. It's a really good scene. Bernau is both obnoxious and charming and Millette is amazing, trying to be pleasant and profesional without rolling her eyes at him, but at the same time maybe a LITTLE bit attracted to him. An interesting what-might-have-been. So it appears the Dobsons were actively looking for someone to pair her with, they just never found the right one for a long-term story.
    • I'm happy to read whatever you provide, @Paul Raven.

    • First, let me say I love reading all of your takes and thoughts. They always provide a different point of view... a breath of fresh air... in this sometimes stuffy topic.

      You've inspired me to add my 2 cents about this product placement debacle.  I absolutely HATE the way they are doing product placement in BTG. I really hope this doesn't catch on or evolve into more and more of these moments. It's incredibly off-putting to place them in a highly dramatic moment where we are still on the emotional journey with the character. What is next - Dani spraying the house while having a nervous breakdown? It makes me not want to buy the product they're selling. LOL. That's just me.   
    • I always get the vibe that Martin/Smitty have an emotional abusive relationship set up... but I doubt the show will really go there with that element given that Martin is a Dupree (and we can't have the Duprees be portrayed in a negative light), and because it's a gay male relationship.   Even though abuse in the physical or emotional sense is a huge thing in a lot of gay and lesbian relationships. The Ashley/Naomi scene reads off to me for one reason....  Ashley was talking about the new scandal without any sort of mention and/or subtext.. considering she knew both Silk Press Sheila and Eva.  I'm not sure if the writers have forgotten, if Jen Jacobs isn't able to play subtext, or what.   It's just apparent the writers do not know how to write a young white millennial couple.. and perhaps they need to get a younger white script writer to be on staff... or let the actors play around with the lines to make them more natural/realistic.
