Kicking off #BlackHistoryMonth celebrating me (Al Freeman Jr.) and my baby Carla (Ellen Holly), the first Black supercouple and marriage (1974) in soaps.

Carla was the first Black lead, debuting on #OLTL in 1968. Ed is the first Emmy-winning role for a Black soap actor, in 1979.

Rest in peace Peabo Bryson, who along with Roberta Flack gave #Days fans the song to one of the show's biggest supercouples, Bo and Hope. Here is the first time it was played on Dec 30, 1983 and the last moment in 2023. It would be used every decade in #Bope's 43-year history!

Happy 76th Birthday, Deniece Williams 🎂🎉🎊

Vocals are perfection....

@DonaldJrPeebles Oh, you will find total support here. It was criminal what Paul Rauch did to Ellen Holly, and Lillian Hayman, firing them and others, it disrespected the foundational legacy of the Grays and Halls. Agnes Nixon, Doris Quinlan, and Joseph Stuart were intentional. He was not. #OLTL

song so good it invented a whole new genre

[Stereo Williams @BeyondTheMemes]

Peabo Bryson, James Ingram, Luther Vandross, Freddie Jackson etc represent a certain kind of polished 80s R&B that it feels like we’ve lost in the years since. Rest in peace to a king of the quiet storm.

RIP Peabo Bryson, who sung the 1980s #OneLifetoLive theme, written and composed by Dave Grusin and Randy Goodrum, and performed it on the show in 1985. 🕊️ #OLTL #RIPPeaboBryson

We in the Black community need to do a better job of celebrating our legends while they’re still here to receive their flowers. Peabo Bryson’s catalog is timeless, and his music still stands strong today. Organizations like the BET Awards, Soul Train Awards, and NAACP Image Awards should do more to recognize and honor the artists whose contributions helped shape the culture. Legacy talent deserves to be celebrated not just in remembrance, but while they can still enjoy the recognition they’ve earned.

@YouSeeTash @LolaLove456963 @niki_smith1 Ok, I hear the perspective loud and clear, and abortion is an option I do support, let me be clear. Either way, as long as it’s written thoughtfully. #BeyondTheGates

[Ed Hall @EdHallOLTL]

@LolaLove456963 @niki_smith1 Well, listen I’ve watched enough soap operas over the years to know that regardless of what we think, the writers are gonna take the approach that they think is gonna service the audience, so we’ll see, but I would not be surprised if they throw us a curveball. #BeyondTheGates

[Ed Hall @EdHallOLTL]

@LolaLove456963 @niki_smith1 I beg to differ. I think, especially because Jessica is wealthy, this would be managed differently than typically, like the grans helping with baby while she go to college. There are a lot of ways they could write this where it wouldn’t be stereotypical. #BeyondTheGates

[Niki Smith @niki_smith1]

Calling it now that both Naomi and Jessica will wind up pregnant. #BeyondTheGates #BTG

Chile…

[Ed Hall @EdHallOLTL]

@niki_smith1 Basically. @GayleKing is the only reason I still watch @CBSNews, and @tonydokoupil and #BeyondTheGates, and #YR once in a blue moon. Scott Pelley was a real one.

[Niki Smith @niki_smith1]

If it weren’t for their daytime soaps, I’d be full-out boycotting CBS. 🗑️

Happy Birthday, Deniece Williams. 🎂

@NatRichonne She wanted a househusband who had a 9-5 security job, lol, not an investigator.

[Nat @NatRichonne]

Genuine question does Naomi actually love Jacob or is she in love with the image of him. sis always ready to cut him loose when ish gets real #Beyondthegates
