Beth Chamberlin on Last Day at CBS Center

This whole thing just really sucks!

I abso/lutely love her. She is really just amazing. And OMG. This is sooo sad : ( I hate it for these veteran actors the most, who love and cherish this show, and are out of jobs, and have to break up from there co-stars and friends. This is their show as much as it is ours. And it is just so sad It saddens me that I won't be able to see these shining faces after 9/18. Oh this is just getting real too quickly :/

I think she would make a wonderful Tina on OLTL!

(

Beth would have made a great Liza on AMC.

This is just so heartbreaking. It is finally sinking in that in a month or so there will be no GL.

I never watched Guiding Light, but I'm sure one day Days of Our Lives will go off and I will feel the same way. Lots of history is in these soaps. That's what makes them unique. That's what makes me come back over and over, even when the writing is bad, I come back. It's about family and history, and that's what I like the most about these soaps.

I would say that she would be a great temporary recast for Adrienne Kiriakis, but Judi Evans is the only Adrienne to me. Ironically, she was a recast for Judi Evans character on Guiding Light, wasn't she?

She's beautiful (inside and out)..I am going to miss seeing Beth Chamberlin ....What sets soap operas apart from other regular viewing is that we see these actors Monday-Friday for years and years and years...I first saw her back in 1989 I believe (?) as the recast Beth Raines. wow...

She would be excellent as tina on oltl wonderful suggestion!

That is really sad, it's bad enough seeing pictures of the finale party : http://www.soaptownusa.com/wrapparty.html but now to read her say that she had to see the sets be taken down is even more sad!
To think in a few weeks we won't even have the show and the characters again. Sadly I won't watch much of the other shows, maybe Y&R, Days (because Crystal Chappell is going there) and some OLTL. Not to punish daytime, but GL was my favorite show and I don't see myself watching the others much.
So long GL!

That screencap has me feeling even more sorry for her. It know that it can't be easy.

I wish that she could have come over to AMC to play Liza. She would have been perfect.

That was such a sad moment. Tina and Frank also let us know it was the last day taping in the studio. They are feeling it too. It makes it real. Most of the cast has so many years on the show.....
I feel for the cast and crew and long time viewers who still stuck with the show.

Mon and Tues taping in Peapack. How odd to end it shooting in a park.

Is it true that the last scenes will be at the lighthouse? I sure hope so. It'd be great if it were a big party again and it was held at the lighthouse. Just like when they had the show's anniversary they had a celebration for the Cedar's Hospital at the country club and the characters got the lighthouse working again. It'd be great if they could go out like that!!!!

Whatever they do for the final scene, it better be good! They had better not blow it - because the scene will go down in broadcasting history and a source of trivia for years and years to come! Question: How did the longest running show in broadcast history end? Answer: ___________

Let's pray it's not Buzz pouring a cup of coffee, turning out the lights and putting a "CLOSED" sign on the door...LORD! Been there with the CHEERS tv sitcom.

Let's pray it's not everyone getting arrested, including Frank and being put behind Bars at the jail...a la Seinfeld.

Or some small child at Cedar's Hospital, being treated for something...and then it is revealed that Springfield was all in his mind! Shades of St. Elsewhere.

Or definately NOT some group HUG at a Save The Lighthouse rally after a new mayor CANCELS the Lighthouse renovation project and fires everyone working on it...Then Reva turns to the camera and says "You are my family"........A la Mary Tyler Moore show.

NO, this had better be ORIGINAL AND GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before they opened Coop's package and found the jewel thief books inside, I thought it would have been cool to just sorta forget about it for a while, tie up all the loose ends, then in the last scene, have Buzz finally open that package, smiling, revealing the book "The Guiding Light" (which the show was based on)..then go dark.

Sadly, it seems the show will end with the death of Phillip Spaulding.

Phillip, the adopted, favorite son of Alan Spaulding. Phillip who showed that family is not about blood but love.

Argh!!
