Topic: A Serious Question for All Longtime GL Fans

Additional Comments: If there was a possibility that lobbying for full episodes of classic Guiding Light, starting in, say, January 1983, would get them posted online for us to watch free of charge, would you participate in a campaign to let TeleNext Media, which owns the show, know there is a large audience for these classic episodes?

    Absolutely! Then people could watch a REAL show... a great show... unlike the CRAP they've been showing for the past ten years!

    I really wish they would deal with SoapNet to run the classic episodes.  They did it with Another World for awhile....if P&G still has the tapes in succession, I say start with as early as they have, and go through the early 2000s....

    I too would love that! It would be nice if you could try to ensure that these were not just available to viewers in the US though - much of what was offered on the CBS site was often not available to those of us non-US viewers (for myself, in Canada).

    I'd love that.  Might want to start earlier though.  Would love to see the story leading up to Rogers fall off the cliff, so maybe 1979.  That way we'd also get to relive Kelly/Morgan, Quint/Nola etc.  Man was this a great soap in it's heyday.

  • I'd like them to start in the late 70s also. That would give us a really good set up to the really golden age of GL. eom/kk
  • I definitely would like to start earlier, much earlier. If 1952 is too early to be realistic, how about 1966 (when GL went color), or 1968 (when it expanded to a half-hour), or 1977 (when it went to full hour). 1983 is too late, sorry, GL did not, NOT start with Reva.

    I would love it! And that's exactly where I would want to pick up the show as well.
