All Soaps Now On Production Breaks Due To Coronavirus

26
Not to diminish the seriousness of this epidemic, but the only positive from young and restless stoping production would be to return with a new writing team.
Josh Griffith s lack of headwriting has been a plague on the show
Hi Damien, I agree with you %.
Maybe with time off they will have more time for the creativity to set in. But safety first as always.
Damien -You are being too kind here.
Thank you for calling it an epidemic—-don’t know why people are calling it a pandemic, considerng we are human, the words go hand in hand. I am with you here. Y&R has always been my favorite show and the present offerings go against everything that is familiar to me. The characters are not themselves—I can’t stand Chance, or what ‘they’ have done with/to Abby. She is transformed….Do not like her right now. The storylines are insipid, without consequential thought. Written by and for infants. Another thing, no one ages on this show. What gives? Too much plastic—-c’est HOLLYWOOD. Honestly? I… Read more »
Celia! Its been a while Thank you. Hope you also stay safe Its really too bad with all the free time to enjoy young and the restless we re forced upon us the toddler version of my once fave soap. Its true Celia. I cant believe these socalled ‘ writers’ thing what they re coming up with is not mediocre. Its complete watered down silliness. Poor Michelle Stafford must cringe every time she has to pretend Abby presents any real threar to her. Though watching Her and Nick this time around make me cringe frankly. Sharon and Rey s story… Read more »
Hi, Damien, Yes, it’s been a while—-thanks for responding. Believe me, you took the words right out of my mouth, As is typical of soaps, redemption for certain characters is par for the course. However, Chelsea is forever ruined for me. No one is as he/she should be—it’s like watching a completely different show—bunch of marionettes. And, you’re right on the mark about Stafford, as well. What an infantile storyline—–TPTB are making her look like a foolishly frivolous schoolgirl. The same was done by GH’s biggies to Nancy Grahn….both great talents. That short stint of Alexis’ marriage to Julian only… Read more »
WHO called it a pandemic and it is as it is affecting the entire world.
Hi, Momo, I ‘m not sure I follow what you wrote—- Firstly, I am not a medical doctor—-albeit, I do have a doctorate degree in Education. As I said, the two words go hand in hand. This novel virus ( novel is the key word) started as a pandemic where the number of infections was stable until it wasn’t. An epidemic is a health issue affecting the entire world. Nonetheless, the difference is sadly conflated, to the point of people cleaning out shelves of toilet paper and foodstuff. It’s not a famine—ergo, pandemic. But, I say, isn’t litigating this non-issue… Read more »
Celia this is k/Kay here Momo is right that’s why they are calling it an pandemic because it is affecting the whole world! Be safe everyone and yes say a prayer because God is bigger than any disease !!
Good to hear from you,Kay—- I beg to disagree—there’s a fine line here. An epidemic cannot exist without a pandemic. If you read my post, the two words need to coexist, until such time the pandemic naturally “dissolves”—We are in an epidemic—-This is a quote–CBSNews–“World Health Organization says the pandemic is accelerating”. This virus is no longer a pandemic because it has reached the rapid spread of infections globally. If there is an “excess of 15 cases per 100,000 people for two consecutive weeks is considered an epidemic”—-I am speaking worldwide here. Therefore, the pandemic has graduated/transformed into an epidemic.… Read more »
Long time no talk? Checking in to see how your family is doing with the epidemic.
Thank God we are all well, thank you, Mark.
I wish the same for you.
Great to hear – same here.
It had to happen sooner or later…better safe than sorry!!!!
Let’s see if any of the daytime dramas incorporate Coronavirus into their storylines. I can’t imagine these characters practicing social distancing! All the bars and restaurants closing and characters having to “work” from home. It would save on production costs, less sets needed.
Sets? Soaps have sets??
As the sets have shrunk through the years, the 6ft social distancing would only permit 2 diners in Kelly’s.
I was thinking the same thing, Mark. I would welcome the networks to do this —-it would help those watching, who are so stubborn in following safe protocol by going out for no good reason.
However, if the PTB stopped profuction ( indefinitely?), perhaps they do not feel the need to practise the six-feet apart “rule”?
Days has the most episodes. Maybe when new episodes of the other soaps stop running, people will watch Days and realize how good it is and keep watching.
This is all I can say to all of you soap fans please take this in the spirit it is given: Our God your word say you answer and deliver people when they call your name ! So we ask that you would heal and protect those who are carrying COVID /19 virus without knowing it! provide a cure for the Corovirus heal our economy and bring a quick end to this darkness! Wheather healing comes today next week or next month we believe you will heal our world . And we will continue to praise you even as we… Read more »
And trust me he has us all in his hands
This is a difficult time for all of us…I hope that all in the entertainment industry stay safe and healthy! I watch all 4 remaining soaps and can’t get enough! Daytime drama is the greatest! Oh and I’m excited to see that they are actually showing the credits at the end of Days of Our Lives now on Television. I wish it was their beautiful theme but it’s nice to see credits again. I’m sad that the other shows doesn’t show credits unless you watch online. But maybe one day…. I Love daytime!
If they were not able to tape, I would love to see old episodes! Like over 25 years
When will General Hospital return with new episodes? I hope it’s soon. Thanks.
Does anybody know when General Hospital will return with new episodes ? Thanks
