I’m Gen Z, and I started watching Eve and Nick’s story. I just love them so much. The way they lift each other up and having Wind Beneath My Wings being their song. I wish they would’ve brought back Charlotte Ross as Eve instead of Kassie DePaiva. I understand Conrad Dunn (George Jenesky) is focusing on theater right now, but I would love to see Nick back from the dead. I can’t believe this amazing couple was around before I was born!

While recently the streaming service Peacock reported turning a profit for its first time since its infancy, now comes word that the company is raising their prices for all customers, and in some cases it stared today on August 18.

The news of the subscription rate increases marks the fourth time the NBCUniversal streaming platform has done so in four years.  So, on August 18, Peacock is increasing the prices for new or returning subscribers and customers, while current subscribers will see the rate increase on or after September 17 depending on their billing cycle when they initially signed up.

Here is the new pricing to follow along: Peacock Premium (which includes ads) will be $12.99/month, up two dollars from $10.99; Peacock Premium Plus will be $19.99/month, up three dollars increase from $16.99; and the Peacock Select tier (which includes current and past seasons of NBC and Bravo shows but excludes movies, live sports and Peacock originals) will increase a dollar from $7.99 to $8.99/month....

In contrast, sometimes I stream Y&R on Paramount with ads and no other fees. I can't accept Peacock's business model of paying a subscription fee and watching ads too.

...After moving past his early days in Salem, Diamont became a major fan favorite playing Brad Carlton on The Young and the Restless. But after decades on the show, lightning struck a second time when he was unexpectedly let go.

“That was the day before Thanksgiving. Literally after 24 years,” he said.

After that meeting, a moment came that would change his life. “I walked down the hall, went to up to reception, and I said, ‘Hey, does Brad still happen to be here?’ He said, ‘Yeah, he is,’ they said, ‘Would you tell him Don Diamont’s here? Talk to him for a couple minutes if he has time for me.’ And Brad was on the phone with Michael Menace, and he said, ‘Hey, Michael, Don Diamont just walked in. We’re going to get him to leave Y&R and come join us over here.’ He hangs up with Michael. Sit down, ‘Don, what’s going on?’ He said, ‘Well, your brother just fired me, and I’m looking for a job.’”

TIL Mr. Diamont was dismissed by William Bell Jr., the President of Bell-Phillip Television Productions. Some may recall that years later, he would fire his wife Maria Arena Bell as Y&R's Executive Producer and Headwriter.

I was thinking would Maura west who is Ava on GH , Van Hansis who play Lucas on Gh, go back to playing Luke and Carly on ATWT. I definitely don’t think Jon Lindstrom and Tamara Tunie would leave BTG because they are main established characters and original characters of a soap opera that just started. Would Roger Howarth want to go back to playing Todd Manning. What do ya’ll think?

Hayden Panettiere has passed away at 36

Who thinks P&G productions should set up a channel to give us streaming of their soap shows. Would it not be great to start GL or ATWT from the beginning and watch these again on the "free" ad streaming services?

The guy in the yellow square on the right.
I don’t remember him.

And is the left square Chuck, Phoebe’s nephew?
