Still better than GENERATIONS'.   

I'm excited to see more of the sets; from the teaser, they do look quite well-done. And I love that there is colours/hues/textures included.

Talking about intros... this has been my ringtone on my phone for the last few years. 🤣

I'm a big fan of soap symbols: hourglasses, photo albums, lighthouses etc.

Same.

The shorter promo was featured during yesterday's episode of TPIR.

Or even something like Love of Life's later opening which was similar to Y&R's with the cast photos.

I adored LOL's last intro. The music and the images.. amazing.

Well, MVJ stayed through all of Phelps era and she's clearly close to Guza. Did she leave because of Garin Wolf? Or when she learned Valentini / Carlivati were coming in?  Who created the toxic environment? Was Varni there in 2012?

It's a shame Brad didn't retire and make Michele the HW at B&B.

Out with the old (The Talk), in with the new (BTG). 

Now the countdown officially begins!

Pretty much everything that immediately replaced canceled soaps has been canceled itself.
