26 True (Fictional) Lovers: Pop Culture's Best Couples
Luke and Laura made EW.com's list of the best couples. Abby West writes: "Their love helped put soap operas on the map. GENERAL HOSPITAL's Luke (Anthony Geary) and Laura (Genie Francis) set off a national craze with their 1981 wedding, still the most watched event in soap opera history, with about 30 million viewers.

Susan Lucci starts her vacation on the runway
As a onetime model, soap temptress Erica Kane has clocked her time on fashion's runways. Susan Lucci, who plays Kane on ALL MY CHILDREN - not so much.
"Nerves? Yeah, sure," said Lucci, who hadn't done the catwalk thing "in a really long time." In Gustavo Cadile, she was among a bevy of red-garbed leading ladies to walk in the Heart Truth Red Dress Collection, along with Tori Spelling, Jennie Garth and sequiny Vivica A. Fox.
February sweeps tapings have kept Lucci from the show in years past. "But today is actually my first day of vacation, so I'm going to have a wonderful life experience walking the catwalk in New York," the Garden City actress said before the show. Early today, she'd embark on yet a second wonderful life experience.

FRIDAY NIGHT LIHGTS: Zach Gilford blogs last night's show
"Drama in Dillon. After Smash road off into the sunset of College Station, Tex. (and he will be greatly missed), everyone's lives kept going. Tami is all up in everyone's business, trying to keep Tyra from dating a pill-popping cowboy, and freaking out that Julie got, in my opinion, an extremely tacky rope-heart tattoo. Watching this story unfold was extremely special for my parents and me, because at the young age of 13 the words "pip 33" were inked into my flesh (still there today). These scenes with the Taylor family were so similar to the 'discussions' (me being yelled at) that took place in my house; it felt like I was watching home movies."
