Murray Bartlett Reveals It's "Do or Die Time" For Guiding Light



From the mouths of soap stars.
  Big Sister Ellen Wheeler must not have dispatched her PR minions on Cameron Mathison's Second Annual Soap Cruise, because TV Guide Canada's Nelson Branco actually got to speak to a current Proctor and Gamble soap star. Guiding Light's Murray Bartlett confirmed to the journalist that it is "do or die time" at his struggling, 72-year-old soap opera. In other news, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is a registered Republican.

Squish names. Days of Our Live's Dansea. The Kelly Monaco pregnancy rumors. Betting on when Erica get's out of jail. Helena's miracle baby. Why Danielle hates Greenlee. Baby bumps and twists of fate.

Week 3 Semifinals Voting Now Open!!

Alrighty everyone I'm back yet again for another week of voting. This weeks Semifinalists all have amazing bodies, but I thought I would feature something else they all have in common, AMAZING eyes!! So I hope you enjoy the banner I put together above. It's sure to be an interesting week with a good mix of fan favorites from your ABC and CBS soaps. One thing is for sure this week the Days of Our Lives guys can't dominate, so it will be fun to see who makes it through.

That being said I know that journalism or whatnot is supposed to be unbiased but I will not waste this opportunity. So, VOTE MURRAY!! I had to do it and I'm sure I'll get an ear full about it later hehe. 

Getting back to the basics....again I will post a poll below so you guys can give me an idea of how the Daytime Confidential readers are voting. The results have been very interesting each week so I can't wait to get your opinions. Now remember this is all in fun. It's not a political competition or one based on how talented the actor is. This is all based on who you think is the best looking or if you like their voice or something about him that makes him that much more attractive then all the rest.

Once you've voted here make sure, if you haven't already, that you go over to the REAL ballot at HERE and give your support to your favorite hottie. It's a hard task I know but I have a feeling you guys can muster through it all *wink*. 

Tune in next Wednesday for the results. There will be a live chat at SoapHunks that night starting at 10pmEST/7pmPST. If you can't make it you can check in there or watch here for my blog to get the results. I suggest going though, the chats are always a good time. So that's it for now...all that's left is to rock the vote!!

Guiding Light: Should Josh And Harley Revisit Their Long Ago Relationship?

Josh Lewis (Robert Newman) is set to reach out to old flame Harley Cooper (Beth Ehlers) next week on Guiding Light, when he hires the cash strapped P.I. to find out just who his skanky preacher's wife Cassie (Nicole Forester) hooked up with. Of course the real shocker for both Josh and Harley will be that Cassie's booty buddy is none other than Harley's new boy toy Cyrus (Murray Bartlett).

If I were writing the soap, I'd have it be none other than Harley's scorned niece and Cryus's ex, Marina (Mandy Bruno) who happened upon the news that her aunt's best friend boinked her man. But that's not the point of this post. I know a lot of long term GL watchers really enjoyed the Josh and Harley pairing of the late 80's/early 90's. Since I didn't start watching GL until after the death of my beloved Santa Barbara in '93 I have no connection to Josh and Harley as anything other than good pals. So my question is, would fans be interested in seeing Josh and Harley drive back down memory's lane once their cheating insignificant others are outed?
