Daytime Dish: Eric Braeden Discusses Young and the Restless Return
While it was inevitable that Victor Newman’s character would return in some form, fans of The Young and the Restless should be happy to know that the actor hasn’t changed.
After nearly a month of negotiations with his bosses (and public discussions with the media), soap opera vet Eric Braeden has agreed to return to the long-running CBS drama. The 68-year-old’s change of heart came just one week after telling Entertainment Weekly that he was done for good.

Ellen DeGeneres hasn’t started appearing on episodes of American Idol yet, but Hollywood is lining up to wow her with vocal effects. Or, Jennifer Aniston was just promoting her new film The Goree Girls. Either way, how many opportunities do you really get to hear this actress singing a ditty on daytime?

CBS Brings Game Show Antique to the Network
With soap opera relic Guiding Light going off the air, CBS is looking at a daytime programming gap they haven’t had to worry about for six decades. You see, Guiding Light is so dusty is used to run on CBS radio. It’s been on CBS TV since 1952. That is a long-running show.
Time to hit the panic button now. So what’s CBS going to do to fill the gap left by this extremely old (and obviously highly successful) daytime drama? How about dredging up an almost equally-ancient game show and shoving it back onto the schedule?
And I’m pretty sure that’s how the pitch went when the network decided to breathe new life into Let’s Make a Deal, that “choose a door” delight once emceed by the irreplaceable Monty Hall. Will you ride away in a brand new car…or get stuck with a goat?

Oprah Dives into Chris Brown/Rihanna Mess
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Daytime, Reality, Talk Shows, CBS, Oprah Winfrey Show, Gossip, Video
Daytime icon Oprah Winfrey recently jumped into the fray and media frenzy surrounding Chris Brown and Rihanna on her talk show, speaking out against domestic violence and speaking personally to the singing star.
“Love doesn’t hurt,” Winfrey said more than once, contradicting several famous rock songs and more than one long-revered poet. “If a man hits you once, he will hit you again!” She stated passionately.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Drama, NBC, News
One of daytime’s popular soaps has just been hit with two of the most dreaded words today: budget cuts.
In hopes of keeping Days of Our Lives up and running for at least another 18 months, the sudser’s producers have been forced to make a few difficult decisions. Unfortunately for fans, that means saying goodbye to two of the show’s longest-running characters: Marlena Evans and John Black.
Despite some work on other projects, actress Deidre Hall has been with the 43-year-old NBC program since 1976. Her on-and-off daytime husband, Drake Hogestyn, joined DOOL back in 1986.

Watch Shepherd’s Fight with Hasselbeck on The View
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Syndication, Video
Although Sherri Shepherd was once known Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s conservative ally, the comedienne has been started to drift further away from her co-host politically.
On today’s episode of The View, the ladies questioned whether certain events should be dredged up in the presidential campaigns. Needless to say - they had very different opinions on the matter. (Things start really heating up around the 3:45 mark.)
Daytime Dish: Vincent Pastore Comes to General Hospital
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, ABC, General Hospital, The Sopranos, News
If you’re still trying to recover from the loss of The Sopranos, you might be able to satisfy some of your mobster cravings with a little General Hospital. Later this fall, Port Charles will welcoming one more criminal into its borders. Actor Vincent Pastore will be transitioning from his years in New Jersey to become the latest gangster in the New York town.
Vincent will play Maximus Giambetti, a mobster whose two sons, Max and Milo, currently work for Sonny Corinthos. He comes into town mistakenly believing Max Jr. is the head of operations in the area. He will then, of course, find out that his boys are only bodyguards. (I envision some tasty scenes with Diane trying to defend her loyal beau.)
Look for Pastore to enter the scene in October.

Whoopi Goldberg Makes Elisabeth Hasselbeck Cry
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Syndication, Gossip, Video
Regardless of whether you agree with the topic at hand, it’s always a great day on The View when a co-host ends up crying. It’s even better day when Elisabeth Hasselbeck is the one doing it.
On today’s show, things became quite tense between Elisabeth and Whoopi Goldberg during a discussion about the “N” word:
Daytime Dish: Port Charles Welcomes Back Tristan Rogers
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Drama, Prime Time, Cable, General Hospital, Gossip
As if Robin needed more stress during her pregnancy.
Last week, we told you that Antonio Sabato Jr. would be visiting SOAPnet’s General Hospital: Night Shift this summer. His character, Jagger Cates, would serve as a reminder to Robin about her first love, Stone. Now another figure from Dr. Scorpio’s past will be checking into Port Charles: her father, Robert Scorpio.
When Season 2 of Night Shift premieres, GH alum Tristan Rogers will find himself admitted for “a major health issue that’ll have him grappling with his mortality.” (That ‘health issue’ must be going around; I think Luke Spencer caught it last year.) His stay at General Hospital will not only allow Robin to bond with her dad/patient, it will finally give Robert a chance to address his daughter’s HIV-positive status.
Could Tristan Rogers’ appearance also mean a possible reunion between him and Finola Hughes (Anna Devane)? Let’s hope! General Hospital: Night Shift kicks off sometime this July.

Signs It Might Be Time for Regis Philbin to Retire
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Editorial
After endless hours of daytime television viewing, I have come to an unfortunate conclusion: Regis Philbin needs to start planning his retirement. (At least from non-scripted fare.)
Although I do still regularly watch Live with Regis and Kelly, Philbin’s frequent errors simply make me cringe. While he has the charm to pull some of them off, I sometimes wonder if he has any idea what he’s talking about at all. If it wasn’t for Ripa’s amazing ability to overlook senior moments, her co-host would often come off looking quite sad.
