It's been discussed elsewhere ...

The creation of Texas -Spinning Iris off to the new show and changing her character, in turn weakening AW. The debut of Texas was a lesson in how not to launch a new show.

Along with problems with the writing, both AW and then later TEXAS, to some degree lost fans when "Iris" was gone.

Any fan of RM's Janet will appreciate this:

 

Thank you for this. I was a kid when all this played out so till this day I never realized that Janet was released from jail bc she took place in some experimental plastic surgery procedure. WTF?!? How stupid of the authorities to allow something like that for a convicted killer that was insane

She fooled Dr. Jaffe.

She was still nuts.

I mean its still crazy. No way should anyone with her background even be eligible for that. Like they combed the prison walls for patients? Thats a big WTF. Would have been better off going to a homeless shelter

There was so much wrong about it. EFulton brought up disrespecting AW & its fans. It also disrespected ATWT & its fans & they resented the Bay City Intruders & I never could blame them for that.

Plus it disrespected both the AW actors & their characters! Hot mess indeed! Cass has a signature curl at the nape of his neck, left side & ATWT Hair wanted to cut if off immediately & he had to fight them over it telling them the fans would plotz & they didn't get it at all. And then the ATWT writers gave him a crude joke to tell about Lila that Cass NEVER would have said about any woman EVER. 

That grand PGP idea was a total bust. 

Crossovers are a great idea in theory (and I'm talking all of them, daytime and primetime), but the writers usually aren't able to grasp the nuances for these "foreign" characters. 

That said, I wouldn't give a flying fig about some iconic left-sided curly-que either.

I even remember my Cass Curl name, which is believe me remarkable! I was Cass Curl Guard at the Gate. Our sig lines ran to 4-6 lines. 

TGL: Slaughtering the majority of the fine, existing cast in 1983 and 1984, changing the show's style and tone, and basically cutting off decades' worth of history from pre-1983.

TGL: Amanda Wexler is Alan's daughter. No, wait, she's his sister! (An impossible retcon after what had transpired on screen.)

TGL: Brandon Spaulding is dead (we saw him die on camera). No, wait, he's alive, so ignore what you saw! TPTB do.

TGL: The patriarchs of major families all went fishing together decades ago, long before they even met or lived in Springfield.😑

TGL: Kelly Nelson asks Ed Bauer if Ed remembers Steve Jackson, Ed's former father-in-law, colleague at the hospital, and the GRANDFATHER OF ED'S SON.🙄

TGL: Reva the Clone, Reva the Time Traveler, Reva the San Cristobelian Queen, Reva the Illegal-Immigrant Savior, Reva the Amish Amnesiac, Reva the Portly Sex Goddess of EVERY MAN'S FANTASY.🫢

TGL: Harley, the super-heroine.

TGL: San Cristocrap never ends, and Bradley Cole gets rehired.🤮

TGL: The Santos Mob, with a preacher in the family (Rev, Ruthledge was surely rolling over in is grave), a shoot-out in the Bauer kitchen (JFC!), and 587 weddings for Danny and Michelle.

TGL: Peapack. Springfield is morphed into a muddy and run-down looking Walnut Grove with inferior sound and video equipment.

Whew! I  need a break now, LOL!

The lies that Robert Kelker- Kelly was forced onto Another World is ludicrous!! I can’t say her name but she tries to constantly spread makeup room gossip that just is not true. Epic fail! NBC could NOT force a Days actor onto Another World to play out a contract. Two different show owners. RKK was not in a contract with NBC. Epic fail on this lie.

I have you on Ignore but I saw this because it came up in a search. I posted both a link & a screengrab of the actor detailing that this happened. I did NOT tell a lie. Noel lied about me. Khan lied about me. You lie about me. But, me, nope, don't lie. Furthermore I tell no makeup room gossip.

I am surprised no one brought this one up.  Despite this stinker, I liked GH during this time.

Oh my god... This is borderline Days territory.

I know he's loved... but thank fück Ronn Moss is gone. He couldn't act. At all.

One of the most epic fails of all-time:

Charity Rahmer as Belle Black (with the Karen haircut to match).

Ron Moss cannot act...Drake Hogestyn is rough too, but they served their roles and made it work lol.

BIG FAILS... Y&R Phyllis as Sheila. Why? These characters had no history so how did that make sense? Maybe because Phyllis was the new Sheila in the 90s since Kimberlin went to B&B?  Why end the run of an iconic villain like this? Thank God Brad Bell undid this.

Ronn Moss was as dry as sawdust from day one. I'd compare him to what I compare him to, but it may not be board appropriate. The only time I've liked Ridge is when Lane Davies pinch-hit for Moss in 1992. Such a great relief for a short period of time.

 

This clip deserves it's own shrine in the museum of FAIL.
