All Things About

2014


It’s New Year’s Eve and we all know what that means. Millions, if not billions, of people across the land will make a resolution that they plan to stick to when the clock strikes twelve as a new year brings a new day, but on CBS’ “The Young and the Restless,” Jill Fenmore Atkinson (Jess Walton) isn’t planning to just eat healthier, go to the gym or lock down a man (she’s already got Colin), she’s out for some sweet revenge!

“General Hospital” will be celebrating its 52nd birthday in 2015, and in honor of the continued success of the series, the official “GH” fan club will be holding its annual weekend where fans of the daytime drama series can meet and interact with the entire cast.

“General Hospital” is littered with talented individuals who can not only act circles around anyone who may appear next to them on screen, but they can also sing as well, as evidenced by the Nurses Balls and even ABC Daytime’s now defunct Broadway Cares charity events. Jason Thompson, who portrays Patrick Drake on the daytime drama series, is no different.

In an newly released promo highlighting the goings on in Port Charles as it gets ready to close out 2014, and enter the prospect of new beginnings in 2015, ABC’S “General Hospital” is kicking things off with a bang in the New Year as several characters hit the sheets, some expected and some very surprising!

“In the immortal words of Cher, you better sit down, kids,” wrote soap columnist Carolyn Hinsey, who has penned her final “It’s Only My Opinion” for Soap Opera Digest magazine, which appears in the January 5, 2015 issue. “I’ve taken another job, which means I have to give up this column and I am really sorry about that.”

As previously reported, the entire cast of the South African based SABC1 soap “Generations,” not to be confused with the American soap with the same name that aired on NBC, were fired following demands of better pay.

Retitled as “Generations: The Legacy,” producers kept their promise of replacing the cast with a new set of actors and stories as the series returned earlier this month with a story that brings the soap two years into the future.

Celebrating 26 years as daytime’s most watched drama series, “The Young and the Restless” is hotter than hot as it gets ready to kick off a new year of jaw dropping twists. In a newly released promo highlighting some of the things television critics have been saying about the soap opera, CBS touts the series as “explosive.”
