On this date in...<br />
<br />
<b>1967:</b> On <i>Dark Shadows</i>, while Willie Loomis remained in a coma, Julia Hoffman (Grayson Hall) attempted to hypnotize David Collins (David Henesy) to stop his prying into Barnabas' (Jonathan Frid) affairs.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><b>1970:</b> ABC aired the final episode of <i>The Best of Everything</i>, a short-lived ABC daytime soap opera that had only premiered on March 30, along with <i>A World Apart</i>, which ran until June 25, 1971. Based on the novel and 1959 motion picture of the same name, <i>The Best of Everything</i> focused on three career girls who became friends at powerful Manhattan publishing company Key Publishing. April Morrison (Julie Mannix, who was later replaced by Susan Sullivan), Linda Warren (Patty McCormack), and Kim (Katherine Glass) soon discovered that achieving "<i>The Best of Everything</i>" was a difficult prospect, as they faced romance, intrigue, and publishing magnate Amanda Key (Gale Sondergaard) in the Big Apple.<br />
<br />
Also starring in the cast were Geraldine Fitzgerald as Violet Jordan, Rochelle Oliver as Barbara Lamont, and Gwenn Mitchell as Ginnie Curtis, and Gregory Rozakis as Squirrel.<br />

<b>1951:</b> Daytime soap opera <i style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.welovesoaps.net/2011/09/loveoflife60.html">Love of Life</a></i>, created by Roy Winsor, premiered on CBS, three weeks after <i>Search for Tomorrow</i> debuted on the network. Both shows started as 15-minute serials but <i>Love of Life</i> would expand to 30 minutes in 1958, and remain a half hour until its final episode on February 1, 1980. None of the original actors stayed from beginning to end but director <b><a href="http://www.welovesoaps.net/2014/12/larry-auerbach-dead-at-91.html">Larry Auerbach</a></b> did. He went on to direct several other New York soaps before retiring the late 1990s. He was among those interviewed by Dustin Hoffman for the soap opera comedy, <i>Tootsie</i>.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>The first episode, with approximately six members in the cast, was produced live at Liederkranz Hall in New York City (it later became Studio 54). The show told the story of two sisters, Vanessa Dale Sterling (Peggy McCay, who currently stars as Caroline Brady on <i>Days of our Lives</i>) and Meg Dale Hart (Jean McBride), their family and friends in Rosehill. Sammy Davis Jr. was a vocal <i>Love of Life</i> fan. Some of the biggest stars that game from the show include Warren Beatty, Peter Falk, Jessica Walter, Marsha Mason, Bert Convy and Richard Coogan.<br />

The CW has given a pilot script order to “Dark Shadows: Reincarnation,” a one-hour gothic horror drama based on the original <i>Dark Shadows</i> soap opera by Dan Curtis.<br />
<br />
The reimagined show will be a modern-day continuation of the strange, terrifying, and sexy saga of the Collins family of Collinsport, Maine — a mysterious, influential, publicity-shy group hiding a ghastly secret: For the past 400 years, they’ve lived under a curse that bedevils their blueblood with every imaginable supernatural creature and horror.<br />
<br />
Warner Bros. Television is the studio, and Mark B. Perry will write and executive produce. Michael Helfant, Bradley Gallo, Tracy Curtis and Cathy Curtis will also executive produce, with Tracy Mercer for Amasia Entertainment.<br />
<br />
<i>Reincarnation</i> is a the third TV iteration of <i>Dark Shadows</i> — the original series aired on ABC from 1966 to 1971. Curtis was also behind a 1991 remake of the horror series which was canceled after one season.<br />
<br />
The original series starred Jonathan Frid as the vampire Barnabas Collins, Grayson Hall as Dr. Julia Hoffman, Joan Bennett as Elizabeth Collins Stoddard and Alexandra Isles as Victoria Winters. Johnny Depp starred as Barnabas Collins in 2012 a film remake of <i>Dark Shadows</i>, alongside Michelle Pfeiffer as his wife Elizabeth and Helena Bonham Carter as Dr. Hoffman.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-73437594028855686782019-09-12T11:27:00.001-04:002019-09-12T11:27:47.252-04:00Tamron Hall Guest Stars on Friday's Episode of 'General Hospital'<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IpJiyG3w-jY/XXpjtokSbgI/AAAAAAAA7LA/utasWvQAq-Y4RHp_-_P4qq9NGWqlPi0_wCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/Tamron%2BHall%2BGeneral%2BHospital.png" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IpJiyG3w-jY/XXpjtokSbgI/AAAAAAAA7LA/utasWvQAq-Y4RHp_-_P4qq9NGWqlPi0_wCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/Tamron%2BHall%2BGeneral%2BHospital.png" width="100%"></a><br />

Carol Lynley, best known for the 1972 disaster movie <i>The Poseidon Adventure</i>, died on September 4. She was 77.<br />
<br />
The actress, who was born in New York City, died “peacefully in her sleep” at her Pacific Palisades home.<br />
<br />
Her daughter, Jill Selsman, said in a statement the actress “loved the industry and she was equally a great fan of the movies.”<br />
<br />
“She loved working in film as much as she loved going to the movies. I saw everything as a child with her,” Selsman, a director, said of her mother’s love for film and television. “She was curious about the world around her, loved to spend time with interesting people, of all stripes and was generally a very peaceful person. Very live and let live.”<br />
<br />
Lynley was also a “life-long fitness person” and a yoga practitioner since the 1970s “when everyone still made fun of it,” Selsman said of her mother.<br />
<br />
“She loved to dance, going to the ballet, seeing anything on Broadway. I basically lived at Lincoln Center as a child because of her,” Selsman said. “She had an easy approach to life and always took the good with the bad. She was a bon vivant. There really was no situation that couldn’t be improved or ignored because there really was so much fun to be had, why dwell on things you can’t change.”<br />
<br />
“Which is what I think she’s doing now. Clearly, you can’t change death, but if there is a world beyond, she’s dancing with her great friend Fred Astaire and enjoying her new life as much as she enjoyed her previous one,” Selsman said.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Lynley began her career as a child model and later pursued acting after appearing on the 1957 cover of <i>LIFE</i> magazine at the age of 15.<br />
<br />
The actress turned heads in the controversial 1959 drama <i>Blue Denim</i> in which she and costar Brandon deWilde play two teenagers who deal with an unwanted pregnancy and pursue abortion, which was illegal at the time.<br />
<br />
Lynley received her first Golden Globe nomination for most promising newcomer.<br />
<br />
She followed that role with parts in <i>Return to Peyton Place</i>, <i>Under the Yum Yum Tree</i>, <i>Bunny Lake Is Missing</i>, <i>The Pleasure Seekers</i>, <i>The Cardinal </i>and <i>The Poseidon Adventure</i>.<br />
<br />
She performed the Oscar-winning song “The Morning After” in <i>The Poseidon Adventure</i> (however, her singing voice was dubbed over by Renee Armand).<br />
<br />
In 1960, Lynley married publicist Michael Selsman. The two had one child, daughter Jill, before divorcing in 1964.<br />
<br />
A year later, the actress posed nude for <i>Playboy</i>.<br />
<br />
While Lynley didn’t live the wild Hollywood life of so many of her contemporaries, she did have an 18-year, on-again, off-again relationship with British talk show host David Frost.<br />
<br />
The actress shied away from commenting on their relationship, but did say she was in a period of “transition.”<br />
<br />
“I’m playing middle-aged parts, which is a good idea!” she said. “Eventually, I want to make the next transition, to where I’m playing snowy-haired old ladies, my Helen Hayes period.”<br />
<br />
Lynley’s last film role was in Sylvester Stallone’s 2006 short-film <i>Vic</i>, which was co-written and directed by Stallone’s late son, Sage.<br />
<br />

<b>1938:</b> Radio soap opera <i>Life Can Be Beautiful</i> premiered on CBS, starting a successful 16-year run. <i>Life Can Be Beautiful</i> quickly became known to radio insiders by its initials, and widely referred to as "Elsie Beebe." It was the story of Carol Conrad (Alice Reinheart, and later Teri Keane), a disadvantaged child who--still in her teens--ran into the Slightly Read Bookshop seeking shelter and a hiding place from Gyp Mendoza (Waldemar Kappel, and later Paul Stewart), the town racketeer. The kindly old book dealer, Papa David Solomon (Ralph Locke), would soon become one of the great philosophers of daytime radio. Carol became "Chichi" and was installed on a pallet in the back room as the old man's ward. Fifteen years later, she was still there. The show was billed as "an inspiring message of faith drawn from life."<br />
<br />
<b>1960:</b> On <i>Search for Tomorrow</i>, after talking things over with Joanne (Mary Stuart), Alison (Anne Pearson) endured an uncomfortable evening with her in-laws, the Metcalfs, who came over for dinner.<br />

<b>2006:</b> MyNetworkTV, an upstart network launched by News Corporation, launched two with nightly serials.

The second pair of soaps, <i>Wicked Wicked Games</i> and <i>Watch Over Me</i> had decent ratings but not as successful as the debut telenovelas.

When the series ended its run on September 17, 2010, Hastings fittingly spoke the last line as her son, Bob ("Goodnight."), a role he had played since 1960.<br />
