That was fascinating..
Goes to show; soaps are very expensive to produce, very expensive..
Many crews to pay and the sets alone are extreme dollars..
For daytime TV the soaps go through millions..

I have never watched B&B but have tuned in for a look-see, and I dunno but the characters all seems so phony ..
For the fans of B&B– long live your soap!!!

Seems a bit tacky and pretentious to name a studio after a sitting Executive Producer. Just sayin’…..

Fascinating!
How long did all that actually take?
They don’t have to do that every day, do they?
Maybe only after another production has used their studio for a while.
Anyone know?

Wow, great video. Soap fans are lucky any of these shows are still being produced, the cost must be exhorbinant.

A soap has a great many sets the crew is awesome to get them up and going in a very little time..
One thing they never build-
a kitchen ..
Most all families and friends sit in the kitchen with coffee and the deep conversations, it is in the kitchen where the action in a home takes place..
But- soaps have no ”real’ kitchens..
I always found that to be weird ..

B&B has a kitchen at the Forester manse. There have been quite a few scenes in the kitchen. On Y&R, Avery has a kitchen and it was featured prominently (too prominently) in a recent storyline. We’ve also seen Jen’s kitchen on Days. So I don’t know what this is about no kitchens on daytime.

What a beautiful video. B & B have the best & most beautiful scene’s compared to any of the other soap’s. Even the outdoor scene’s are breath taking. This is my favorite soap.

Do they have to do that everyday? That’s a lot of work. Congrats on 7,000 eps. Seems like we just celebrated 5,000.

Corbin Bernsen to Reprise His Role of Arnie Becker in ‘LA Law’ Revival Pilot

October 18, 2021

Corbin Bernsen (Father Todd, The Young and the Restless) and the son of Y&R’s late great Jeanne Cooper (Katherine Chancellor) has signed on to reprise his signature primetime television role of womanizing lawyer Arnie Becker in the upcoming LA Law revival pilot.

This makes Corbin the co-lead of the series alongside Blair Underwood (Ex-OLTL) who previously signed on to the pilot to reprise his role of Jonathan Rollins. ABC has greenlit the pilot.

According to Deadline, it is believed that Bernsen and Underwood will be the only original members of the mid 80’s-90’s legal drama on NBC in the pilot, but more may guest-star if the show gets picked up for a full-season order.

In the premise of the reboot, the law firm of McKenzie Brackman, now named Becker Rollins, reinvents itself as a litigation firm specializing in only the most high profile, boundary pushing and incendiary cases. The show will feature familiar characters working alongside new ones on the most hot button issues of the day. As for Bernsen’s Becker, now in his 60’s, look for him to struggle with a rapidly shifting sexual and political landscape.

The original LA Law ran for eight seasons from September 15, 1986 to May 19, 1994 on NBC.

So, what do you think of Corbin taking on the role of Arnie Becket in a revival of LA Law? Would you be intrigued to check out the show if it makes it to series? Comment below.
