It was racier than GH. I also remember the film, Young Doctors in Love with Soap stars in campy and more racier scenes. <br /><br />One scene, Kin Shriner talks about examining Janine Turner's breasts and she asks, "What's wrong this me?" and Kin says, "How should I know know I am a lawyer" !<br /><br />Also Susan Lucci in a Party scene with Topless Hookers! <br /><br />So Yes, it can be done! outviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11463619373631606176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-57661478744064065072013-04-02T18:02:04.897-04:002013-04-02T18:02:04.897-04:00I remember A New Day in Eden.

And the guy who was married to the woman who played Susan Moore on GH starred as Biff. <br /><br />It was racy but not a great story, considering it was written by Doug Marland. Marland is often revered by fans but when it came time to create his own soap, it was a very pedestrian rich family/poor family story set in a college town - much like Loving.
