What events/traditions happened yearly or occurred over the course of several years on the soaps? I know GL had the Bauer BBQ for 4th of July and I had another one come to mind but just went blank as I was typing this

It didn't happen nearly enough (I believe 4 or 5 times) but I always loved AMC's Crystal Ball. I think it used to occur in the winter and mostly it just gave everyone an excuse to dressed to the nines.

1966. Clips of the first ornament hanging appeared in the 2001 Christmas Ep(the one that had the 9/11 memorial). I recall for a good while there in the 90’s and ‘00’s the Hortons held a 4th of July picnic as well. 

 

The Snyders on ATWT always did something for Thanksgiving for years although it tapered off eventually.

Some summer events off the top of my head

 

Another World - KBAY telethon (only happened 2-3 times but a great showcase for the singing and dancing talents of the actors and the reappearance of Cass in drag as Crystal Lake )

 

Young and the Restless - The Abbotts or the Newmans usually had a July 4th pool party (mostly an excuse to get Brad Carlton in a speedo)

 

General Hospital - Founders Day, (everyone went to the park, dressed in Victorian costumes, would be slightly offensive in the modern era), served as a cover when Luke broke into mob boss Frank Smith's office and later when Cecilia needed to run into Jimmy Lee.

 

Days of Our Lives - the annual reveal that the local hunk or teen vixen was one of Stefano's long lost children (jk)

      First publicity image of Keith D. Robinson as Ted Richardson.
    • Ok GL friends - Phillip Spaulding is back! (April 19, 1996) Quick questions so I can get up to speed: 1) Why does Alan-Michael hate Phillip so much? Amanda put him on the wedding list and A-M got extremely upset and said he's the last person he'd ever want at his wedding. 2) Who is Meredith? With Blake's current pregnancy storyline, Rick and Ed have been talking about how Meredith (assuming Rick's girlfriend) left with Phillip's son (or something like that)? They also keep talking about how Blake/Rick were at odds over Phillip too. 3) They said Phillip left town to do community service and avoid getting arrested, or something to that effect. What did he do and why did he really leave? Thanks in advance

    • I know you want Sarah to be an evil genius and I'm all for it but their only discussion of it was on Valentine's day when Xander suggested buying the hospital and Sarah quipped that the situation was not that dire. Then recently he asked her what she knew about sepsis but they never discussed the drug, just that he had heard a cure was in the works. Then she only found out he was buying the hospital yesterday from Kayla.
    • Mimi was his beard! Gabi and I have the same taste! Who's that dorky in a cute way guy?
    • He was part of the Last Blast crew. And he dated Mimi for a while. Though I would love for him to save Javi from Leo

    • Watching... How about a Javi and Kevin pairing? Kevin and Doug pairing? Kevin is cute. I've never seen him before. Will and Sonny not wanting to pay for Adrianna ticket? WTF? NO!!
