Last night on the September edition of Soap Nation Live with Michael Fairman, we welcomed our very special in-studio co-host General Hospital’s Laura Wright (Carly) for a lively and entertaining, and revealing 90 minute broadcast.

Michael and Laura welcomed their “Soap Nation Live Hottie Night” line-up of guests throughout the show which included: General Hospital’s Ryan Paevey (Nathan), Dancing with the Stars, and former GH star (Ex-Jagger Cates) Antonio Sabato Jr, and Days of our Lives Greg Vaughan (Eric)!

Laura discussed throughout the episode myriad of hot button GH topics including, Carly’s current romantic entanglement with Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Franco (Roger Howarth), and how things really twist and turn in the weeks to come.

The Daytime Emmy winner also chats on Billy Miller taking over the role of Jason, which was previously played by her longtime scene partner Steve Burton, and how important the Carly/Jason relationship is, and how she is looking forward to working with Billy Miller, and that in fact they are shooting scenes together coming up soon!

Ryan Paevey (Nathan) during his segment talked about the scene this week on General Hospital, where Maxie and Nathan finally share their first kiss after stabbing or shooting people, and working with Kirsten Storms (Maxie)! And he reveals what it has been like seeing the overwhelming fan response, especially from the ladies, in such short time to his first daytime soap role. Paevey also shared he hasn’t been privy thus far to the Intel of who Nathan’s real biological father is given the twist this week on GH where we learned it isn’t Victor Cassadine (Thaao Penghlis), and the sexy star shared some cooking tips! He is quite the cook and much more as you will hear!

Antonio Sabato Jr. talked about his debut this week on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars ,and how it felt to have to dance first of all the celebrity contestants for the new season, and live in front of the studio and at-home viewing audience! Antonio also talked about what it’s been like to try to learn the new dance routines with two-time DWTS pro dance champ, Cheryl Burke! In addition, he shared his memories as Jagger Cates on GH and says he would love to return some time in the future if he was asked back. And Antonio, like Ryan Paevey, talks about their construction talent, but Antonio has taken that a step further with his new syndicated series, Fix It or Finish It!

During his segment, Greg Vaughan talks about Eric’s on-air and priestly struggles on Days of our Lives, and recalls working on General Hospital with co-host Laura Wright as Lucky Spencer, and managing a soap career and being the dad of three young boys. He also reveals what he hopes will happen to the former “Father” Eric Brady in the future and much more!

Michael Fairman…I absolutely LOVED this program. Laura was a great cohost…and Ryan, Antonio and Greg couldn’t have been more pleasant and charming!

Ryan: “I’m feeling a bit doughy!” Hahahahaha…that was too funny…and he actually meant it! It was so much fun to hear Ryan (who plays my new favorite GH character, Nathan)…being so sweet, intelligent and personable. He’s not only stunning…he sounds like a sweetheart!

The entire show was completely fun and entertaining!

I’m not sure if I need ASJ back at GH at this point (none of his co-stars is really around, except for KMc), although he had a nice reunion with Robin on the second season of GH:Night Shift.

Oh well, of course there’s Sonny, too, but you get my drift.

DAYS Olympic-Style Promo to Tide You Over Until It Returns

July 24, 2021

DAYS fans know from past Olympics, that when the games begin, the long-running NBC soap opera which gets a two-week preemption leaves its viewers with one hell of cliffhanger and this time they left viewers with two.

First, EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) now knows that Sami (Alison Sweeney) cheated on him with Lucas (Bryan Dattil0) and apparently goes to confront her, but in true EJ fashion he does not let on that anything remiss. Meanwhile, Ben (Rob Scott Wilson) has “kidnapped” Ciara (Victoria Konefal) just before she was to walk down the aisle and marry Theo (Cameron Johnson). Cin fans were rejoicing here!

So, while the games of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics (which are not taking place in 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic) are taking place, NBC delivered their own Days of our Lives promo Olympic-style to hold viewers over till we return to Salem.

Take a look at the promo below.

Now, let us know, which story are you most looking forward to most when Days is back on the air? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

Marla Gibbs Joins Days of our Lives

July 22, 2021

Nearly 24 hours, after beloved TV star Marla Gibbs, almost passed out during her induction ceremony to the Hollywood Walk of Fame, comes more news. Now, Gibbs is set to appear on NBC’s Days of our Lives.

According to SOD, Gibbs will play the mother to Jackée Harry’s, Paulina. Look for her first appearance in the role of Olivia Price on August 17th.

The former star of The Jeffersons, now 90-years-old, was giving her speech in Hollywood yesterday when suddenly she stopped and began to appear to faint. Gibbs’ son helped get her into as chair and some water, so she could recover.

The hot temperatures were to blame for Gibbs’ moment, but it all ended up ok. Her daughter, Angela, told the crowd Marla needed a moment and would continue.

Later after she resumed her speech, Marla told ABC’s George Pennacchio on the Walk of Fame honor: “I never thought it would happen, but here it is. I just got overwhelmed for a minute. I haven’t been excited until this moment!”

Watch a segment from ABC7 on Marla’s Hollywood Walk of Fame induction below. Then let us knowl what you think of Gibbs coming to DAYS via the comment section,
