WTF!!!!!

EXCLUSIVE: Here is a great holiday gift for soap fans: I’ve learned that Prospect Park has revived its plan to continue cancelled ABC daytime dramas All My Children and One Life To Live online. I hear the company behind USA hit Royal Pains has inked deals with SAG-AFTRA and DGA for the soaps’ production, eyed to begin in the first quarter of 2013.

That's the 50 gazillion dollar question, cause he sucks worse than a hoover.

I was hoping they'd recast with someone who can ACT

The best part of that AMC list? NO Cam/Ryan ;D

So relieved to see Erika signed on. It wouldn't be OLTL without her. Nice to see Vimal will be back with Rama. I pleased with most of the cast so far but not thrilled with AT as Jack and SR as Shaun. I kind of expected to see cady and Michael by now for AMC.

Anyone else think SL might not be interested?

If the show is really going this far I am surprised it wasn't picked up on another network??

You mean like cable? Cuz I can't see a network wanting a soap with swear words... Also, I am sure if there is TV interest they wanna see the first few episodes at least first.

And I'm still worried about viewing this in Canada...

As for Daytime Emmys--I believe they have some special category for online content, but just one (wasn't Eden R's show up one year?0

Oh, Andrew! I can't even be mad! That poor kid, good for him.

Obviously the "casts" aren't complete.

-- This "Luna is dead and so is the baby but we won't show you the body" is so lame, so badly done.
-- NONE of this grief over the loss of the baby resonates -- at all. None of it is sad, none of it is emotional. Lighting a frickin candle doesn't do it, Katie.
-- Today's show was important to watch only if you cared to guess who's taken the most Ozempic shots.

So the story arc with Laura is what the show should have done with Chelsea after her kidnapping arc.

"The end of the affair?"
🔷
Today's commentary will be focused mainly on the Viki-Sloan-Clint triangle. Or as I like to call it - "Anna Karenina in Llanview".
🔷
Like a glass of cold water splashed across her face, Viki suddenly sobered to the reality of what she was about to do couple of days ago. If she went to Vermont with Sloan, that would have meant the end of her marriage and a deep wound inflicted on the entire family. She knew she couldn't do it to the kids. She was their anchor, their constant, their sense of stability. Therefore, she made the difficult choice to end things with Sloan. At least, that’s how it seems... but I suspect that they are merely prolonging the drama and the emotional turmoil. They are taking their time with this storyline and I am thankful. In this moment, it’s hard not to empathize with Clint and side with him. He is a devoted family man who has endured his wife’s emotional affair with another man, yet he still desires to be with her.
🔷
Another thing the writers accomplished, which I wanted to share with @DRW50 specifically, since I recall our conversations about them transforming Clint into a homophobe. Well... they fixed it. And they did it in a manner that felt genuine and not forced. At Sarah's funeral... Clint recognized Billy's significance to the family... reached out to him, almost apologizing for his previous attitude. We saw a transformed Clint, who had respect and admiration for how Billy has defended himself and his impact on his son Joey. This was an incredibly moving moment that allowed me to forgive Clint for the ugliness we witnessed months ago. For some reason, it's not hard to forgive Clint. Perhaps it's the talent and charm of the actor... I simply can't hold a grudge against him. I genuinely LIKE him and have recently found myself rooting for him more than I do for Sloan and Viki.
🔷
Something interesting, that I loved and could relate to. The writers are giving Luna this fascinating internal conflict. She is tormented by anxious thoughts that she might lose everything she loves and holds dear. It seems as if she cannot bear to be happy and fully connected with Max. She has begun to treat him like a fragile child rather than a mature man, so terrified of losing him. I appreciate how the shadow of past trauma resurfaces to trouble her. Personally, I believe that after enduring certain traumatic experiences, people often find it challenging to accept happiness. I see this in Luna, and it's a potential for great drama. I think this will truly test her relationship. Yet, on the negative.... they have transformed her into this domestic figure eager to prepare meals for Max like a 50s housewife... the GIRL POWER Luna is no more, and I miss that... Yet, I am beginning to appreciate this new version of her as well.
🔷
After falling down the stairs (which I'm still doubting if it was not her throwing herself) Blair had no other option than come clean about her lie. But then a new opportunity presented itself to her. Larry, the doctor... just assumed she had a hysterical pregnancy and she embraced that immediately. Now nobody can tell her anything and she is safe till at least Cain or Alex make their next move.
🔷
And of course... Bo is still deep in his mania and rage... his PTSD is incredibly intense and quite frightening to witness - he actually wrecked Andrew's cabinet after Tina brought Sarah's clothes there. Goodness, everything in this show ultimately causes pain to Holy Andrew. Speaking of the reverend - he and Cassie are discussing sex as if he's some sort of truck driver rather than a man of God. Then they ended up on the floor... all sweaty... if you know what I mean... Oh my, Andrew... I suppose Marty was onto something. The reverend definitely has a HEALTHY libido! God doesn't judge!
Overall - 10/10 - what can I say... PURE LOVE.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

ALL: Soap actors that also worked BTS on their shows

No, I think she was a bartender at Company. I haven't seen that era of GL, but this character spotlight gives you a good idea of who Lola Fontaine was. She seemed like a pretty prominent character while she was there.
Oh OMG that unpublished book of hers is WILD. Must-read, even if overly embellished (from what I assume).

Talk about anti-climatic.
The latest B&B make it make sense - why would Luna escape prison to find Will if she secretly lost the baby? The baby was her only leverage.
