By now, you all must know that this year’s Super Soap Weekend will be the last as announced by Disney-ABC earlier this week. I expounded regarding my feelings about that in my previous blog. Thumbs down – by the way- in case you missed it. Since I focused all my energy on that bombshell announcement, [...]

It’s been less than 24 hours since Disney-ABC dropped the bombshell….the dreaded news that this year’s Super Soap Weekend – Nov. 15 and 16 – will be the last for the super popular event held annually at Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World. Yeah, you heard me right. Disney-ABC is doing away with THE most [...]

Who doesn’t love Michael E. Knight as Tad Martin on All My Children and Natalia Livingston as Emily (before her demise) on General Hospital?

Remember a few weeks back, when General Hospital‘s Luke (Anthony Geary) was on the operating table – teetering between life and death? At one point he was having those wild dreams and belted out that wonderful rendition of Frank Sinatra’s “My Way?” Well who knew he could sing? But he sure does. And you can [...]

Lame! That’s the first word that came to mind after watching “The Real Greenlee” return to ABC’s All My Children last week.

When embarking on this new adventure three months ago, I never realized the scope of soap-related blogs and sites. And every day, it seems like I discover another.

Well Thanksgiving is over and I hope everyone ate plenty because I sure did! Now we’re full-force into the holiday season.
