Victoria Wyndham was so well spoken. Very intelligent answers and commentary from her!

I've watched soaps since I was 5, and I learned the right lessons from them. I learned not to lie, not to cheat, etc. etc....

I love Victoria Wyndham. She was wonderful on Another World. A true class act!

This was wonderful to watch! I really loved Victoria Wyndham, Frances Reid, and MacDonald Carey but they were all wonderful here. Jeanne Cooper is a hoot here!

I remember watching this live and I am so thankful seeing it again. So nice reliving a time when daytime dramas ruled the airwaves and not newscasts and chat shows. My goodness Victoria Wyndham is a stunningly beautiful woman. Nice to see a rare appearance by her along with all the veterans.

This whole interview is the reason why we appreciated the hell out of our veterans as a soap audience. Because when they spoke, we listened. They were bold and beautiful in their talent (all if not most established on the stage or screen), to offset the young faces and their restlessness. This was to be the natural progression of stories that had already been told for decades, how else are we to see change, hope, poetic justice? What would have spoken to me at the end of "All My Children", would have been Erica Kane's realization she didn't ever really need a man to make her happy, she had always had herself... OR instead of a character's trauma like Viki's on "One Life to Live", that was groundbreaking become a gimmick. Victoria (Wyndham, not Lord) was right... the youth of the writers think that's all we want to see tinged with solacious sex scenes - and it's not, it never was. Keep it adult, not adult-rated, but to the point that if it was a kid watching during the summer, they couldn't wait to grow up and be independent someday and marry someone dynamic.

My heart swelled a bit because all but Victoria are no longer with us. I've watched every single one of them at some point and I just want to wrap our veteran actors up in bubblewrap and keep them safe forever.😢

Amazing to see these stars all in one room.

I don't rembember the Horton's having twin beds-but I remember Mike and Nancy Karr getting rid of their twin beds back in 1983. Vicky Wyndham is the only panelist still alive in 2023!

Fantabulous 😊😢😮🎉😂❤

This boardcast may be nostalgic, but the opinions of the actors on the direction and content of daytime plots @ the time is absolutely relevant for todays soaps currently.

Helen Wagner was a TOTAL gem and a history-making daytime performer. Sad that she didn't quite make it to the very end of ATWT's long run. She passed away two months before the final episodes were taped. (In 2010!) I wrote to her in the early-1990s and got a wondrous, hand-written letter back. When I wrote her again, she replied in the same way again. Just a classy, savvy, bright person. It was great that she could sometimes take part in stories which concerned the young actors. In its hey-day, the writers used all generations to tell their tales. Later writers either lacked imagination or were steered to focus solely on the wildly overrated newbies. (I do have to laugh, though... my mother was always glued to "Another World" from the late-1960s on and she never got over Robin Strasser leaving the role of Rachel. Any time she did anything else, she'd see her and exclaim, "There's Rachel!" Poor Victoria had the role for SO MUCH LONGER, but my mother just could not accept that change....) 😉

MacDonald Carey was a doll when he was young and old!

It's funny to hear them talk about soaps being too sexy and the actors from Days Of Our Lives had no idea their show was heading towards a devil possession🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Rare to see Vicky Whyndham doing an interview. Wish they had Erika Slezak though.

When it comes to daytime viki whyndom...even in 2023 is the greta garbo of daytime!!! ...i recentley asked a you tube interviewer that interviews of hlen gallagher and whyndom would be gold...he said possibly gallagher but whyndom not going to happen he cant even find her lol

The vets were the best!

Soaps today leave nothing to the imagination!

this is so cool to see this

MacDonald Carey is probably rolling in his grave over the state of Days now. It couldn't be anymore removed from reality and core families.

Met Victoria at a food show her and her Another World husband was doing a play at that time

FUN FACT: Helen Wagner starred opposite a young Lauryn Hill on ATWT in an literacy storyline.

I highly doupt the title of this episode was over the hill on soaps!! Lol

Oddly, the whole basis of Y&R was to push the envelope and be more racy than the other soaps before and around that time.

I didn't really think of Victoria Wyndham as "over-the-hill" on AW. I guess it helped that most of my favorite characters were over the age of 40 ( Donna, Michael, Iris, Lucas, Mac, Carl).

If only they can see the state of soaps today and what is served up to the viewers 💩🤮

what year was this broadcast, please?

The irony is that now soaps are bringing the veterans back (and giving them storylines) because the demographic has shifted. They've realized that the young people aren't watching because they have too many other options.

who is this host?

McDonald Carey was already in decline, you could tell.

I thought in the 80's and 90's really showed off things and TV today is way more conservative... Thought VW was a bit off the top and looking at her Cue cards in her hand. Harding Lemay hated Jac Courtney for that reason but yet praised VW who im sorry is not a good actress. I have watched all the 70's, 80's, etc. and she constantly looked over or down to remember her lines. i loved how the host, when VW interrrupted her questions to the audience that she more less ignored her
