Members ellabelle Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 Same here. Also: - Greg-in-a-box on AMC - Josh as Erica's unaborted fetus - Tad as murderer - AMC and OLTL both being canceled and canceled on the same day - Prospect Park actually bringing both shows back (even if it turns out to be just for one short season, they still did it) - David being stupid enough to fall for Griffin, Ryan and Zach's entrapment plot in 2011.

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 *smacks forehead* How did I forget THAT? Yes, totally. And then being brought back two years later. The resurrection-go-round (aka Project Orpheus) of AMC's last few months on ABC, 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 More than likely, they haven't been included, because ABC doesn't own the rights to them. (Dan Curtis Productions owned DS last time I checked, and P&G/Televest owns EON.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JellicleCat Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 - Martha Byrne leaving ATWT - Technically this is not a moment, but.... Hunter Tylo's face when Taylor returned from the dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 -Deidre Hall, Drake Hogestyn, Brandon Beemer and Martha Madison being fired -Martha Byrne quitting -Natasha Wylde killing her husband Mark -Niall revealing he also kidnapped John Paul for his revenge against Myra -The murder of Lynsey Nolan and undercover cop Walker letting it happen -Rishi lying to Charity and protecting his son by saying he was the father of Rachel's baby and not her husband, Jai -Will being revealed as Texas' murderer only two days after he threw her out the church window on their wedding day -Vanessa falling in love with her best friend Rhona and not becoming a psycho -The firing of Tom Lister who is everything one could want in a leading man. However, the Cameron story has easily been the best of 2013! -The firing of Deena Payne and the completely shoddy and disrespectful exit they gave her -The thankful firing of Cheryl Fergison as Heather who I never thought I'd get the pleasure of seeing being killed. Thanks Ben! It's just too bad they feel the need to hang onto the horrible Shirley. -Josh Gallagher slowly morphing into a thrill seeking junkie who now has sweet and lovable Bella Cooper wrapped around his manipulative little finger -Nicole Barber-Lane and Julie Hesmondhalgh quitting their respective soaps of their own accord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 IA. It was weird to hear Ronn Moss was leaving, and even weirder to hear who would be succeeding him. It'd be like finding out "Jess Walton OUT! Linda Dano IN!" as Y&R's Jill Abbott. (Okay, not really.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfan770 Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 In the past ten years? --The whole Melaswen debacle on Days that it even occurred. --Cassie's death on Y&R and the downfall of Y&R afterward. --The firing of Hogestyn and Hall and that Days greatly improved 2009-2010 and wasn't cancelled. --Y&R in the year 2009 it was shocking how bad the show became. --Martha Bryne leaving ATWT. --GL having a successful finale. --Eric Braden, Melody Thomas-Scott, Eileen Davidson, and Jess Walton all at one time or another were discarded by Y&R. --The returns of Carly and Vivian to Days, only for it to fall apart. --The return of John Dixon for ATWT's finale.

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 You know, I just thought of this one: The casting of the Very Experienced Charity Rahmer as HorriBelle on DAYS, 2004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted October 25, 2013 Members Share Posted October 25, 2013 Alll of the above + Bianca's rape in 2003 was, perhaps the most disgusting moment I can think of in soap lore. The fact that the writers did this to a lesbian character (one, who was beloved), but used it as a ploy to give her a child caused me to tune out for the remainder of its ABC run. I think MB leaving ATWT was actually the straw - that seemed like the end to me. NB did an excellent job, but that just did it for me. The Fetus in the fireplace and Adam/Rafe was truly a low. I never thought I'd tune into DAYS again after Malsswen, but ED return brought me back, only for her to leave again! AMC being cancelled was a shock to me. I really thought the brand name of AMC was synonymous with ABC Daytime. I figured OLTL would go first. AMC/OLTL being revived and the ratings of the 4 remaining soaps trending upwards during the past two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
