No Thanks! Deidre's Face may look young but one pick at her Wedding Dress to Stevano and I realized her Fountain of Youth dried up, actually I don't watch a Soap for Nudity I Watch it For the OTT drama, if I wanted Nudity I would Be watching Netflix or something like that

I feel your pain. I remember I was in total shock and denial when I heard of ATWT cancellation. It was my soap since I was 9 years old.

The Hot Gals but I know that doesn't count for you lol There are a few Good Scenes once in a while, but as I stated endlessly I hardly ever get to watch, especially since March when the Torrents stopped appearing, now my hopes are even lower

True. Very true. Not so bad being that it's on a Wednesday, but enough where people were actually blind sided by this. And for how soon the change is happening. There's not even time to "celebrate" the show in terms of how long it aired on NBC. Usually when a show moves from one network (or service in this case) to another, they get to have some kind of celebration for the time they were on the original platform before moving on. Key word is usually.

I feel for you guys, Here in Brazil we don't have soaps so while not the same I know the feeling because during the pandemic "Chaves" something I watched since I can remember was taken off the air, it was painful because never before I realized how much that silly little comedy was part of my life, It really must suck!!!! The only bright side I can see is the possibility of They making classic episodes available

Wow, so sad on so many levels. The last of the NBC soaps. 57 years on broadcast TV. 

It's final broadcast episode should be something special. I'm sure it won't be though. Since its already in the can, is it going to be like a normal episode?

This is pretty much a cancelation. I don't see this lasting on Peacock beyond the year. To see Days of our Lives die like Passions, but with even more of a whimper, just a few years short of its 60th birthday, again, really sad.

Well this is interesting. I have Comcast so as of this moment I have peacock premium so will be able to continue . I started watching in 1965 (yes, I'm old, 79 next week) but know how to stream so will continue watching regardless.  I'd like to see a smaller cast and a lot less of the current Sci fi stuff that's airing now.

There's one bright side. At least DAYS isn't being replaced by a fifth hour of The Today Show even though it is still another news hour.   With NBC giving its stations the option to carry "NBC News Daily" or air local news.

    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
