Wow, I so appreciate this. Thanks Jim Warren!

[Just Jim @justJimWarren]

@TVGMLogan Tony respected you SO much. He didn’t need or seek praise from people, but he did often wonder ‘what does Michael Logan think?’

RIP Anthony Geary. Of all the gods and goddesses in the Soap Opera Pantheon, he was our Zeus. Brilliant, iconoclastic and uncompromising, Geary defied his own legend as a heartthrob to make acting choices that were dark, brutal and altogether human. His 8 Emmys say it all. #GH

RIP Eileen Fulton. As superhussy Lisa Hughes on As the World Turns, she horrified (and by that we mean thrilled) millions with her flagrant bitchery and sex kitten hijinks. Many a soap vamp would follow in her Ferragamo’d footsteps but Eileen was the original Original.

RIP Leslie Charleson. This heat-seeking missile of talent gave us a Dr. Monica Quartermaine for the ages — brilliant, ballsy, dangerous when necessary & altogether unforgettable. But her best role was as herself: Thank you, dear hilarious Lester, for being YOU. Happy trails. #GH

[Michael Logan @TVGMLogan]

RIP Days of Our Lives’ Drake Hogestyn, who sparked 38 years of fan euphoria with his dazzling puss and heartthrobby heroics (and that famous Eyebrow of Suspicion!). Off-cam, he was a force field of love, compassion and true-blue decency. We’ll 🩷 you always, Hogey!

Cheers & farewell to Bill Hayes, a first class actor, an even better human being and, as we saw today, a champ to the very end. Let us forever speak his name! Sending love & birthday wishes to his dear wife, the eternal cool chick Susan Seaforth Hayes.

25 years ago today we said goodbye to Another World, a fab, feisty soap that grabbed a place in our hearts and never let go. Here’s my report from the final day of shooting - a day that was sweet, sad and weirdly hilarious.

RIP Emmy winner Marla Adams. What a privilege it was to watch her hold court as Y&R’s Dina, whose slow descent into dementia was an acting tour de force. Off-cam Marla was a hoot—fizzy, fabulous, wonderfully naughty. A truly grand star.

Cheers to @MicheleValJean on #TheGates getting the green light from @CBSDaytime. You’ve earned it! You DESERVE it! The last time one of networks brought us a new soap was a quarter-century ago so this is more than good news. It’s a freakin’ MIRACLE!

It's go time! #TheGates

Extraordinary.

[Michael Logan @TVGMLogan]

RIP Bill Hayes. What a star. What a man. What an inspiration. Bill, to the very end, showed up at Days of Our Lives with pride, spirit and a love of craft that never waivered. To lose him at age 98 is way too soon. Condolences to dear Susan, and to us all. 💙

RIP Bridget Dobson, who gave us the soap of a lifetime when she created (with hubby Jerry) the deliriously radical #SantaBarbara. True TV royalty (her parents created #GH), Bridget was so ballsy, innovative and freakin’ brilliant that she had no imitators. Nobody even dared try.

[Michael Logan @TVGMLogan]

RIP Tyler Cristopher. Oh, wonderful man, I am so sorry you have left us. Your Prince Nikolas was a sublime and exotic creation and General Hospital soared whenever you were on-screen. It was an honor to know you, to watch your exceptional work and to root for you always.💙 #GH

[Michael Logan @TVGMLogan]

Cheers to Suzanne Rogers and her 50 remarkable years as Maggie on #DaysofOurLives! Thank you, precious lady, for gracing us with your fab talent and sweet spirit. Maggie always finds a way into our hearts! 💕

RIP Sharon Farrell, an electrifying actress who never got the awards or the flowers she deserved. She was so memorable as Nina’s hot mess mom Flo on The Young and the Restless, delivering some of the best and wildest work ever seen in soaps.💙 ⁦@YRInsider⁩ #YR

[Michael Logan @TVGMLogan]

If I had enough cocktails in me, I would confirm this. In fact, I still have the email from a certain ABC press agent condemning me to hell for helping Zimmer bruise Frank’s ego. Good times! 👍

[Brandon's Buzz @brandonsbuzz]

> in a chat with Fairman this week to celebrate #TheDoctors, @kimjzimmer mentioned she had pissed off Frank Valentini in an interview long ago and that he has shunned her since. Here, from a July 2011 conversation with @TVGMLogan, is what I’m convinced sent Frankie into orbit. 👀

[Michael Logan @TVGMLogan]

RIP Andrea Evans. The word icon is passed around way too freely these days, but Andrea was an ICON, baby! Her saucy, sensational Tina Lord on #OneLifeToLive was a genius creation and the very essence of soap opera.💙

A bad loss but Jackie was a tremendous force I will so miss her ! @GeneralHospital

[John Was Raised On GH @RaisedOnGH]

For GH’s 35th Anniversary segment on BJ’s heart transplant, they included commentary by actors Jackie, Kristina and Brad to discuss their characters Bobbie, Felicia, and Tony. This is truly the crown jewel story of the show’s history ❤️ 🚨 🚑 #GH 🚨 🚑 #GH60
