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.

I feel like Florida Evans in that one episode where she keeps trying to convince her family that J.J.'s portrait of "Black Jesus" has nothing to do with their sudden good fortune.

Can someone explain the theme song to that show to me? A temporary lay off is not a good time. LOL.

This "Casting Sit-com people as characters" is a very colorful topic! Better then the pet/animal thing a while back!

How dare you.

Anyway....

Charlotte Rae can play a relative of Myrtle.

Nelson Branco just said:

Real or Rumor: Maria Arena Bell wants to Helm AMC's Reboot!!

That would be an absolute nightmare.

Stephen Nichols wouldn't be far behind probably.

What is Jeff Beldner doing now? He was the writer on the staff near the end with the most history with the show and he did script the final episode....

Stephen Nichols as David's long lost brother. Crazyass Hayward.

The Power of Debbi Morgan.....

I would just like to add that it takes a Debbi Morgan to keep my heart into this project, especially when there is no Lucci news. I'm glad that she's one of the first names we're hearing about.

Absolutely agreed. I really believe, in the final years, she became the heart of the show. I guess maybe it's a no brainer for her--despite relative success in other venues--she lives in CT right, where it will film?

She lives in Maryland.

My stepdad's thrilled about Debbi being back and so am I.

LOL maybe MAB will give Jimmie Walker and Bern'Nadette Stanis roles.

I struggled with getting through the show in Clenshaw's last few years (I had a particular disdain for all the forced camp, what they did with Sonia, what they did with Linda, anything Panesar-related, and the whole Cindy and Knight setup), so I'm not in the same boat as many are in feeling a big decline in quality, but that doesn't mean the show's complete lack of momentum or direction is any less confounding. Clenshaw was better at making the show seem competent whereas Wadey just seems to have no real ability at present to put together episodes. The pacing is along the lines of radio soaps from the '30s or '40s.
I am not even sure what the changes would be if they did panic - my guess is something like Ben returning to reunite with Callum (which is likely happening anyway), Kat sleeping around, and Phil returning to being a cardboard gangster - but I do hope they find some ability to steer the show again. If Wadey can't, and the incompetent people above him like Kate Oates can't, then the BBC should make changes while they still can.

No doppelganger, it's lazy writing. Brad shouldn't have written Luna into a corner. She could have been like Amber or young Steffy but nope had to make her Sheila 2.0

The car hit her cause she ran out onto the road

Under the name CC Matthews, I believe.
What about Randy Holland? Was he writing Y&R at the time he appeared as Rick Daros?

God, I can't stand that friggin kid 😂😂
I was interested in Rachel, Sarah and Brady's scenes today and I'd like to see what this is going to lead to but I'm so tired of Rachel. And the fact that Brady is probably gonna let her get away with this crap is ridiculous. I really thought stuff like this was going to be ended once Ron left. And if Brady's not gonna give her a slap, he should at least have her little demon ass locked up in Bayview with Sophia. With the way that today ended, hopefully that happens.
Speaking of Sophia, she really was the topic of conversation today lol. Gabi using her own history to help Ari understand what Sophia was going through was a good idea. I'm curious to see if Ari knowing the truth about everything now will somehow play into this storyline, and lead to some more conflict for everybody involved, especially since it looks like they might be going there with Ari and Aaron. I'm not completely against pairing them, but I'm still not too sure about it. I can't really see Ari going from older bad boy Doug III to sweet nerdy good boy Aaron lol. Louis Tomeo's acting when Ari and Aaron went to see Sophia was a little... ehhh though, but I still like the character and the actor. And yes Ari, we wish your Dads could be in Salem for the holidays too 😊😊😂
And I'll always enjoy Kayla going head to head with EJ. Kayla finding out that Mark is working at the free clinic and being so insistent on seeing the lab could lead to something interesting happening. I wouldn't mind her, and even Steve and Stephanie being weaved into EJ's storyline as well. And now Mark is beginning to realize that everything at the lab might not be on the up and up, I'm curious to see how his part in this storyline is going to play out.
And once again, Susan was unnecessary. Maybe it's time to kill her, and Dr. Rolf off for good.

August 1988. So it is a strike episode.
Now I'm curious if one of the other scenes from 1988 I thought was un-Marland (Kim telling Seth that Betsy is like a daughter to her, and she hasn't forgotten how much he hurt her other daughters) was also during the strike - maybe not if Seth and Betsy were already a couple by then.

Wednesday and Thursday episodes
How many episodes did Finn spend shirtless just lying around the house on the couch?
Crew Morrow acting was still atrocious and so was the actress playing Electra.
Everyone searching for Luna at night in the fog with just cellphone lights was hilariously dumb.😂
The reaction to Luna's escape was also entertaining. The acting was bad, and Steffy's reaction was over the top. 😂

Do you know if those scenes are on YouTube?
