Background: Errol is one of the premier voices covering all five daily daytime dramas, including "Beyond the Gates," "The Bold and the Beautiful," "Days of our Lives," "General Hospital" and "The Young and the Restless." He began watching soaps in 1993, around the time Luke and Laura Spencer returned to “General Hospital,” but they weren’t what got him watching regularly. “It was Lucy Coe and her duck Sigmond,” he says of how he got started with soaps.
He received his BA from Baruch College, double-majoring in English Literature and Journalism, and double-minoring in Communications and Psychology. He also holds an AA in Business Administration.
Robert Guza Jr. has exited “Beyond the Gates” as executive producer and co-head writer. Tracey Thomson (“Secrets of Sulphur Springs”) has joined the soap as EP.
Heather Tom and Lawrence Saint-Victor from “The Bold and the Beautiful” and Sean Dominic and Courtney Hope from “The Young and the Restless” will attend this year’s Monte-Carlo TV festival.
“One Life to Live” alum Renée Elise Goldsberry and Darren Criss (“Glee”) have been tapped to host Pluto TV’s live pre-show “The Tony Awards: Act One.”
Starting Sunday, June 1, Shout! TV will stream hundreds of episodes of the popular British soap opera “Hollyoaks” for free on AVOD (ad-supported video on demand).
Scott Padgett, chief meteorologist for CBS Texas, is heading to the New York market to join CBS New York’s First Alert Weather team, starting Monday, June 30.
With the Nurses Ball, “General Hospital” marked seven-week and eight-week highs among Women 18-49 and Women 25-54, respectively, during the week of May 19-23, 2025.
After 28 years as a standalone brand, Soaps In Depth has merged with Soap Opera Digest on the same day the latter brand overhauls its website.
Amid a competitive landscape, “Days of our Lives” stands out as one of Peacock’s most-watched original shows, even surpassing some high-profile rivals on other streamers.
On Monday, May 26 (Memorial Day), CBS will broadcast the first official repeat episode of “Beyond the Gates.” The show returns with originals on Tuesday, May 27.
