CBS Daytime had the best promos from the 90s until Lucy Johnson left.

"Don't blink and don't look away..."

"Quick! Turn on the Light! GUIDING LIGHT..."

Nobody does brothers better. CBS Daytime. (Picture of Michael and Kevin) laugh.png

Joking aside, I always loved the promos that had Clarence narrate the promo.

If you wanna get Young and Sassy, Bold and Brassy, there's one place to get it on.

If you wanna get your whole world turnin, make your light burn, there's one place to get it on.

Go head girl get it on, don't be afraid girl get it on.

Get it on, get it on....

GET IT ON.

lol... so yeah, my favorite of all time was CBS' "Get It On" campaign, though I agree with CSF that the Lucy Johnson era promos were pretty much all great. I don't love Lucy Johnson but promos were one thing she did very well. They were so campy, dramatic, soapy, and over-the-top, and VERY sexy. To me when daytime became a sexless genre, we had a serious problem.

There was/is a great example on youtube of a promo for the last good Sheila storyline where she says "It's sooo good to be bad" and I'm irritated that I can't find it at the moment... grr... BUT here are three great ones promoting Joan Collins as Alexandra on GL:

2002 was a fun year for both GL and B&B. ATWT, not so much lol.
