After meeting Chris McKenna yesterday, I had the urge to listen to the One Life To Live Buchanan Kids reunion show. As I was listening, I had to stop 10 minutes into the podcast. Erin Torpey was so quiet that I could barely hear her. Everyone else was so much louder then her. I even tried pulling the video version of the podcast up, and the same audio issue was still there. I am guessing it had something to do with audio on her end of things.

Soap Opera Update - Jun 5, 1999

Soap operas in 1999 weren’t just storytelling—they were resurrection, revelation, and restraint.

Reva returned from the dead. Marlena woke to truth. Erica gave back what was stolen.
And behind every kiss? Seven rules, no tonsil hockey.

Daytime drama: mythic love, human limits. #SoapOperaLegacy #GuidingLight #Days #AllMyChildren #OLTL

Magazine page from Soap Opera Update (Jan 5, 1999) spotlighting Josh and Reva’s reunion on Guiding Light. Headlined “Josh & Reva: Being ‘Dead’ Doesn’t Last Forever!”, the article recounts their mythic journey—buried alive, desert island captivity, and a clone impersonating Reva. Their final embrace, marked by confusion and revelation, becomes a masterclass in soap opera resurrection, identity, and enduring love.Magazine page from Soap Opera Update (Jan 5, 1999) featuring three dramatic storylines: Erica Kane returns Maria’s kidnapped baby on All My Children, Max rescues his twin sons from a black-market baby ring on One Life to Live, and Marlena awakens from a coma to rediscover John’s true identity on Days of Our Lives. A triptych of redemption, parental devotion, and the haunting power of memory.Magazine page from Soap Opera Update (Jan 5, 1999) titled “Secrets About…” revealing seven rules soap actors follow during kissing scenes. Rule #1: “No Tonsil Hockey.” Quotes from Josh Taylor (Days of Our Lives), Krista Allen, Lauren Koslow, Sharon Case, and Joshua Morrow explore the balance between passion and professionalism. A cheeky yet revealing look at the choreography behind daytime intimacy.

OMG! Erika Slezak just signed a short term contract to appear on General Hospital. No word as to if she will be playing a new character or reprising her One Life To Live character of Viki.
This thoroughly excites me. It’s been way too long since we’ve been graced with the talented Erika Slezak on our screens.

I’m so saddened to hear of Jackie Zeman’s passing. She was such a powerful and beloved actress. So warm and gracious. Grateful and blessed that I had the opportunity to meet her in 2019. She will be dearly missed and always remembered. My thoughts and prayers are with her friends, family, and the daytime community. Rest In Peace, dear Jackie.

Leading to a Karen and Marco storyline that riveted viewers for many episodes.
