My friend would immediately said Rebecca Herbst. lol. Even took pictures with her and sent them to me. lol.

 

That said...

 

Susan Lucci

Erika Slezak

Misheal Morgan

Heather Tom

Eileen Davidson

Chris, Nathan, AND Tom...ALL of my Joeys.

Andrea Evans (who my above friend is very good friends)

 

I think those are the only ones that I would be nervous to see and I would push through it that nervous to see. Anyone else, I don't think I would have the confidence. Oh, wait!!! Genie Francis. But I would probably faint. And now that I think about...Jess Walton to get her feelings on how she's written.

I recently moved to LA and was able to meet almost the entire cast of PSNS during the most recent fan event they had in LA and I must say they are all super sweet people and it was great seeing them all at once. I even had tickets to see the documentary premiere that was supposed to be at Universal Studios this year but of course it was canceled due to COVID.

 

This year I had planned to go to the Day of Days event but didn’t get the chance, would like to meet the cast from DAYS next.

Oh yeah, I have no doubt about it. He and his family come across as genuine and gracious (well, except for MAB haha). I was just wondering if you had any info on how he is perceived as a writer and why he is not sharing his position as head-writer with anyone more, let's say, competent. I'd love to see how Lauralee would fare as a writer on their shows.

I've met Mark Grossman, Sharon Case, Christel Khalil, Kate Linder, and Christian LeBlanc last year at Kate Linder's High Tea in Toronto! Because of that, my income tax owing turned into an income tax refund

. All of them were really cool, easy to talk to, and stayed a lot longer than they needed to for the signing since there were so many fans that attended (they must have been so hungry by the time they finished). 10/10 would go again - hopefully COVID-19 will have died down considerably by December haha.

 

Would love to go to the Bi-Annual CBS fan events in Los Angeles - I've always been curious to see what that's like. Would also like to meet the GH cast. Lastly, I would like to meet Gina Tognoni - she seems to radiate positive spiritual energy.

 

I also met Terri Hawkes (ex-Wendy Masters, GH), although that was actually for a fan event for Sailor Moon. Very intelligent in real life.

I met Patty McCormack - not really a soap star, although she appeared on a few over the years, at a showing of her classic movie The Bad Seed.

She was very friendly and warm. I took the chance to mention The Best of Everything, the 1970 soap she starred in. She was surprised that I remembered it and said she had a great time doung it and the best part for her was meeting her now best friend Julie Mannix. I was just reading Julie Mannix's blog and sure enough she mentions watching GH to see her best friend Patty filling in as Monica.

    • That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun!
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
    • On this day 34 years ago the final episode of Dallas and came in at an astonishing #2 in the ratings after two straight seasons of weak ratings. Interesting Knots was #27 for that week as well:

    • Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?
    • I was bummed that 2.0 ended because Mcpherson (headwriter) had really set up some interesting stories and we never got to find out where the stories would go once they resumed production on 'season 2'. I remembered the EP (Ginger Smith) and a lot of the stars gave a lot of credit to McPherson being able to come in on very short notice and come up with stories/plots (I think it was a very short turnaround time of a few weeks).  It was nice that she got to redeem herself after her year long Days stint was not well reviewed/liked.

    • It seems like a setup for failure to review a single episode of a soap, but Cleveland Amory was a foolish man.  His taste was so predictable, that one wondered why bother reviewing a medium he so clearly disliked. (found on Facebook retro TV group) Another case in point of his misogyny from his review of Dark Shadows (Can you imagine the magazine with the widest circulation in the country insulting its customer in this way today?)

    • They could easily be re-created, or even re-shot in different ways, especially if they were re-shooting scenes at some point, as well.
