Here’s the thing though: he may just fit right in at Days. That soap has different standards than what tends to pass on, say, YR or GH.

How a campy 1970s game show became part of Canada's national lexicon: defector.com/how-a-campy-...

Thinking about buying a pet cam just so I can get sneaky footage of my cat using his cat bed when I’m not around. It’s sat in my closet for 2 months since the move and suddenly he’s decided to try it out. 😂

The American Revolution documentary series was well done, I think, but doesn't quite touch my personal top 3 of Ken Burns' work (Vietnam, The Civil War, Baseball). It does make me want to re-listen to the Revolutions podcast. It also makes me wonder if there's a good French Rev documentary out there

Founders on LinkedIn still seem to be struggling with the difference between telling people about their humble beginnings and admitting to straight up committing fraud.

@tallytofu.bsky.social How are you liking 86 so far? I'm assuming you're in the fall somewhere, if you've reached the prison drug ring?

I appreciate Ken Burns' dedication to providing perspective to minority groups - especially the Indigenous groups during the time. It's quite fascinating. BUT, it is always disconcerting to hear 2025 Americans use the term 'Indians.'

The voice cast of a Ken Burns documentary is always top notch - The American Revolution series is no different - but my god is Meryl Streep doing THE MOST lmao

This has felt like an incredibly productive, though boring, weekend - chores, errands, cooked sausage & bean soup and portioned it off for the winter, then made Korean meatballs for dinner tonight off a new recipe and it was amazing.

#OLTL Nov 00. They've managed to pull *way* back on Colin airtime (that's good!) but it's most likely because they pinned him a corner too much and have no idea what to do with him now (that's bad!). I'm interested to see how his murder story gets setup, but my impression is it'll be awhile.

Is there any date yet for Greg Vaughn’s debut on #BeyondtheGates?

I’ve had Creed stuck in my head for like 12 hours now and I need it OUT lmao

Has anyone been watching the new Ken Burns series? I totally forgot it was airing - and quite frankly, have been unenthused about it here in 2025 - but I do typically like his stuff.

#OLTL Nov 00. FOLKS! It's the 'Todd undresses Blair and washes her hands while she admires his floppy hair' episode! For a pairing that was insanely celibate, they certainly had their moments. Plus, crime coverup!

#OLTL Nov 95. Hilariously, Todd's exit in 95 is strikingly close to Cord's exit in 91: - fly halfway across the world - quick last convo w/ spouse over the phone - last scenes w/ new characters (Patrick, 95; Andrew/Blair, 91) - drown under mysterious circumstances 🤷‍♀️

Can you even imagine how many letters they got in 1992-1995 about how much viewers missed the Peabo Bryson Tour of Llanview credits for them to fully incorporate the flashes of buildings concept into the new one? It had to be lots. #OLTL

30 years ago today #OLTL celebrated their 7,000th episode and finally ditched the silk sheets opening for this absolute fucking banger

Shoutout to the preschooler in storytime who, after we finished singing "Head and Shoulders," helpfully added "and nipples!"

My favourite new thing is the tumblr account that's posting tv theme songs with a poll to see if followers know it or not. How are even 15% of people "never heard this before" to the goddamn Price is Right theme ?!?

There are some excellent patented Viki reaction shots in this one.

WHAT ??

I’m howling.

[getting drinks with captain hook] Me: so what’s up are you still in a blood feud with that boy Hook: he’s not — we’ve been over this, he doesn’t age. I think he’s older than me Me: I’m just fucking with you how’s Smee

#OLTL Nov 00. Things I appreciate i this ep: 1) I just realized that Max and Ben got shot in the same place on the body, but the real Buchanan son wasn't hurt at all and the fake Buchanan son ... got shot in the back by a vengeful wife. 2) Max managed to hang on to his martini glass when he fell. 🤣

#OLTL Nov 95. Todd tells Blair over the phone that he needs to change his will because right now the baby gets everything but she doesn't get a dime. I guess that was supposed to be a big plot point for the Tina v Blair fight over the will and The Sun.

Today's CDN #yr. Well, at least we're getting Billy Flynn in black boxer briefs. 🫡

This moment, though, genuinely had me HOLLERING: my girl sitting there STONE-FACED when Mo mentions JFP. 🤣🤣🤣 Mo: “That was a good period!” Literally Genie: “ … ok … ok.” JESUS I shrieked #GH

#OLTL Nov 00. This era was *obsessed* with Erin Torpey as a singer in a way that actually helps me better understand Frank's later obsession with making Kristen Alderson a singing star too.(Woefully misguided, both times.)

#OLTL Nov 95. Alex running for Llanview mayor has always had a certain, uh, stench of realism about it nowadays but Asa trying to weasel his way into the Mayor's office post-Alex-win in order to make renovations really hits in collar-tugging ways now. 😬

I was dancing around the room to Hall & Oates 'Rich Girl' and then a sudden thunder clap and lightning happened and this confluence of issues freaked my cat out so bad that he's taken refuge in his donut hut. 🤣

Also for the Saturday people 👇 #Days #BeyondtheGates #GH #YR #BoldCBS

For the Saturday people ...

I don't think it'll make much difference for users, but I went ahead and created a new #OLTL feed here 👇 and deleted the old one since the original server wasn't including as many posts as it should. This one should be better!

#OLTL Nov 00. Will mentions to Jess that he found a loft to live in! Yay - one of my favourite sets of the 2000s is coming soon!

After a long pause due to moving, I'm finally starting to upload OLTL 1989 - it'll start posting on Monday. If you want to watch 1986-1988, it's all here: www.youtube.com/@ThePalace68...

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

#OLTL Nov 00. How dare they do this to me??

people are focusing on the scary part ("AI-generated") but why, why on Earth, would I want content "from users"

I've headed full steam into season 2 of The Gilded Age because I enjoyed S1 so much. Robert Sean Leonard has just shown up as a new priest of St. Thomas - it's a little wild to see him with gray at his temples.

this is part of Everyone Is 12 Now theory

There were a lot of times in the last 10-15 yrs when I didn’t think Days would reach its 60th. And it’s nice that the show, its cast, & fans can savour that milestone. But there’s also a part of me, especially in the last 10 years, that recognizes going before things got too dire can be okay too.

Joe Thornton absolutely sobbing his way through the part of his Hockey Hall of Fame induction speech about the love he has for his wife was funny, amazing, and absolutely sweet. (Starts at 10:01)

I'm enjoying The Gilded Age so far (it's a lot different than Downton) but omg I just got to Nathan Lane and his ridiculous accent arriving and lmao

I have loved and cheered for aint shit men on soaps, even to be with my girls, ex Max Holden!!! But that was cuz the actors brought a certain charisma and charm to the character. I believed they loved the girl they were with in that scene. Tomas doesnt do any of that. Either recast or 🪓 him. Neow!

#OLTL Nov 00. Andrew's back for his first set of eps since Feb/March 2000 (Bo/Lindsay's wedding, I think). It's a little weird to see him share scenes with Sam/Sykes/Will/Ben - all characters that were gaining prominence as Andrew was sent to the far reaches of the backburner.

I'm finally starting The Gilded Age. I disliked Downton Abbey a lot when it was all the rage, so we'll see how far I get with this Fellowes work. BUT I do love the time period/setting a lot more than Downton's and if I can't get into it, I'll just read more Joanna Shupe romance novels lmao
