BTG: History, Behind the Scenes Articles & Photos

[Vee]

The later ATWT stuff was completely anonymous to me. Just soulless, which is how I've found virtually all of Frank's changes to the GH openings and music.

It's the Michael McDonald background vocal guy who always cracks me up. That and 'soap on a rope'.

Unlike most of Frank's changes, however, ATWT's later openings didn't need trigger warnings for epilepsy sufferers.

There was another random little child added to Frank's pachinko slot machine opening the other day. I just sighed.

[Liberty City]

No one has been added outside of Aiden; everyone else has been in the opening for some time.

It was one of Sonny's little girls, I think. I don't count them as individual human beings. No one under 15 should be in that opening AFAIC. We're long past the days of little Jonathan Jackson or Amber Tamblyn.

Again, you can't beat the short-and-sweet approach:

And hoping she'll be out of it soon, haha.

Late to the party on BTG’s opening but I did like it, the opening theme for the first 10-15 seconds definitely reminded me a lot of the Dynasty 2.0 opening.

As for the later ATWT and GL themes as fun as it was looking back they weren’t worth it.

While I liked the 2002-07 theme ATWT should have just modernized either the 81-93 or 93-99 themes for the 00’s. Meanwhile GL should have just kept Hold On To Love to the very end.

premiering now.

The theme is okay, but I'm going to wait until Monday to really see how I feel.

In some ways I wish they'd gone the Days route which has been timeless and had a quote about gates read by powerful voice and some dramatic Orchestra in the background. 

I think I saw on someone's home the other day something like "Love is the master key that opens the gates." I'm sure they could have come up with something.

I think the show is going for a slightly different demographic than the other soaps and they’re very intentional about that in the way the production is handled.

Trash show, but MVJ’s friends at B&B supporting her nonetheless:

That was classy of B&B.

I'm starting to think Lauren Buglioli (Vanessa) might be a scene stealer. But I'm particularly curious about Kat and Naomi, who I believe are both Nicole's daughters. And Andre!

I wonder who Tamara Tunie was referring to re: ATWT alumni, assuming that wasn't just a bit. Or she could've just been referring to Cady and Jon.

I have a feeling Lauren will be a great standout as Vanessa!

And I think she could be talking about Cady & Jon, but I'm hoping she might be alluding to some other people.
