AMC: A lot of Comings before it’s Going

This entry talks about the people who are coming back or are already back on canvas at All My Children. There is speculation along with spoilers, so read with caution, as not all my wishes will come true. This is a compilation post about all the news from the last few weeks.

ATWT: All My Afternoons

Here is my summary of the As The World Turns chapter of All My Afternoons, a book from 1979 by Annie Gilbert. They break this chapter into three parts: one is general information, dressing room drama (quotes from actors on the show at the time) and from the script (one page of script from 1976.)

OLTL: The End of Marty's Reign of Terror

This week Marty Saybrooke (Susan Haskell) ran away from Llanview for good. The character had become unhinged due to loss of her family.

ABC: Katie Couric in Fall 2012, GH Out?

Today the news was made official that Katie Couric is going to have a syndicated show that is currently untitled. It will air on owned and operated ABC stations at 3 pm starting in September 2012.

Days: U-Turns and Upheavals

Last week news came out of the Days of Our Lives offices that things are going to be changing. While we knew about the writing swap, the cast is going to be looking different. This post includes spoilers and such from around the web and speculation based on comments made in Soap Opera Digest and other publications.

Death in Daytime Book

This is my quick review of Eileen Davidson’s book “Death in Daytime”, which was written in 2008. It is her first soap opera mystery novel, (two additional books came out in 2009 and 2010.) Ms. Davidson currently plays Ashley Abbott on the Young and the Restless, but she has also appeared in that role on The Bold and the Beautiful. She also appeared in roles on the soap operas Days of Our Lives (Kristen, Susan and more), and Santa Barbara (Kelly Capwell). My summary/review does spoil some information, but does not give away the killer.

AMC: The Death of Baby Sara

On All My Children, Madison North and Ryan Lavery’s premature daughter Sara died soon after her birth. The little one developed pneumonia and couldn’t fight off the infection. Her death was tragic for all that cared about her.
