Fearless Predictions For 2009


TV Guide Canada's Nelson Branco has come up with his funniest "fearless predictions" yet for all the daytime soaps for 2009.

Some of my favorites:
- During an AMC airing, Ricky Paull Goldin (Jake) calls Beth Ehlers "Harley" by accident and not Taylor. The next day, TeleNext and P&G sue for damages. "We’ve got Kim Zimmer for another year," shouts GL EP Ellen Wheeler.

- Barbara Bloom manages to impress even herself when she recasts the role of Craig Montgomery for the umpteenth time. So, who’s the lucky patsy this time around? Jeff Trachta (ex-Thorne, B&B)! "Wanna hear my cabaret act?" Craig asks his stunned siblings Margo and Katie. "You guys look like you need to hear some Liza Minnelli — STAT," he says before bursting into song.

- Desperate for more mainstream PR, Ronn Moss is caught wearing Kyle Lowder’s thong on-air. The guys at THE SOUP literally cream themselves.

And of course...

- [DAYS OF OUR LIVES] Executive producer Ken Corday’s improved golf game almost lands him the cover of Golf Digest, but Eric Braeden (Victor, Y&R) scores it instead. Roger Newcomb is officially convinced there is a conspiracy against Van Hansis and Jake Silbermann landing a cover, or any cover, for that matter. "Nuke can golf, too, you know! A hole in one, and, all that … hello, people," shouts Newcomb loudly and proudly. Later, Jack Wagner (Nick) tells Newcomb to shut up. "Gays can’t play golf, fool," he says. "Now go revive my girlfriend’s career, please. Heather Locklear would be fabulous on SCRIPTS & SCRUPLES, non?"
