What were the biggest, best, breaking soap news stories of the past decade? Well, the list is a doozy and some couldn’t even fit into our top 15! Tv Guide Canada’s Nelson Branco, and On-Air On-Soaps, Michael Fairman in Branco’s latest Soapgeist column finished out their look back at soaps in Y2K with probably the most controversial category of them all.
In at number one, Deidre Hall and Drake Hogestyn fired from DAYS, in second place, Y&R’s Eric Braeden quits after a pay-cut showdown. Third was the decade’s saddest turn, as both P&G soaps, As the World Turns and Guiding Light were canned by CBS. Fourth runner-up goes to Homophobia run wild- Chris Engen walks out of his role as Adam on Y&R and One Life’s Patricia Mauceri kind of did, too! Fifth place, ABC saving All My Children and moving it to LA and keeping the awesome One Life to Live stationed in New York! Six, was the messy Dena Higley-gate at DAYS. In at seven, the notorious writer’s strike! For the rest of the Top 15 list click here!

Julianne Hough Replaces Tyra Banks as New Co-Host of ‘Dancing with the Stars’

After Tyra Banks revealed she was stepping away from Dancing with the Stars, a new co-host needed to be named and it looks like the reality-ballroom dance competition series has found their gal.
Julianne Hough, will rejoin the series, but this time as the new co-host alongside Alfonso Ribeiro. Hough has previously appeared on the dance series as both a pro dancer and a judge.
With Julianne returning to the ballroom, she will be reunited with her brother, Derek Hough, who will be back at the judges table for the show’s upcoming 32nd season streaming on Disney+.
The new co-host has twice won the mirrorball trophy with celebrity partners, Apolo Ohno and Hélio Castroneves, during Dancing with the Stars fourth and fifth seasons on ABC.
As for Tyra Banks, last week, she told TMZ that she felt that it was time for her to exit DWTS and focus on her business and entrepreneurship, and that she would also be producing more TV but behind the scenes.
What do you think of Julianne replacing Tyra in the ballroom for season 32 of DWTS? Comment below.

It was a night to remember and quite the spectacular event, when CBS, Sony Pictures Televisions, and The Young and the Restless, celebrated in style the iconic soap opera’s 50th anniversary.
Over the weekend on Friday, March 17th, cast, crew, colleagues, families, and the press gathered to salute the series at the The Vibiana, a beautiful venue in downtown Los Angeles that used to be a cathedral now turned event space.

During the speeches, none was more touching than when Lauralee Bell (Christine, Y&R) was joined by her brother Bradley P. Bell (executive producer and head writer of B&B) and in remarks, honored their late parents William J. Bell and Lee Phillip Bell, the creators of The Young and the Restless.
