VCR ALERT- no specific spoilers--- just some interesting tidbits.
Read this today in my TV Guide
CBS ATWT will turn 50 on april 2 but don't expect and staid homages. 'Rather than embalm outselves we're going to have fun" says producer Chris Goutman. We're taking the history of ATWT and turning it upside down and sidways. He means that literally.........
On April 3, the soap will air what Goutman laughingly calls, " 'The Poseiden Adventure' on wheels." It's a flashback packed episode that has Oakdale's seven grande dames taking a trip to Chicago (pictured are Lucinda, Lisa, Barbara, Kim, Emma, Susan and Nancy!). On the way back, their bus goes off the road and later flips over. There's a killer bear and a gas explosion but that's nothing compared to the battles among the stranded divas. "their past feuds and rivalries are going to resurface," Gourman says. "All the old wounds will be opened."
In the same episode, Licinda will announce that she's publishing "Oakdale Confidential" a scandalous - and anonymous- novel written by someone in town. What it reveals about Mike KAsnoff's secret past will shake up the show for months! Viewers can also read Confidential- Pocket Books will have it in bookstores April 4. (I'm so buying this!)
Five decades of sex, love and unplanned pregnancies get a send-up March 31 when the soap's teen set tried to sort out the complex Aokdale family trees for a school assignment. Their solution: think of the barious clans as characters in classic sitcoms. That'll have the ATWT cast spoofing everything from I Dream of Jeannie and I love Lucy to the Beverly Hillbillies and the Munsters.
I think we are in for some funny stuff!!!!
