Thanks for the article.

It'll be very sad for those of us who like to watch dramas on prime time, if CBS, the only one of the three networks which has always been very serious about producing prime time dramas and still continues to be, disappears off the face of the earth.

Guiding Light went dark because of many years of mismanagement of its resources by Guiding Light Producers and Writers. Even Crystal Chappell had said in one of her recent interviews that she was surprised by CBS pulling the plug now only because she thought they had one more year. One more year, just one more year - think about that.

It is be impossible for me to wish that any American Corporation (that had not shifted all its work to be done overseas) simply close its doors and swell the ranks of the unemployed, especially with all the non-stars and low-wage workers CBS would be employing.

I do not blame CBS for closing down GL. The messy way of telling stories that GL did for the last several weeks, let alone for the last several years, is reason enough, as sad as life without GL is for me.

I have to accept reality. GL had been tarnished by many years of shoddy work. I cannot and will not blame CBS, as much as the loss of GL hurts.

One of my favourite companies, Macy's, is on that list. I have got so many bargains there, we even bought our wedding rings there when we were very poor students, that it hurts me to think that Macy's has fallen on hard times. Sigh ... I hope they get "The Miracle on the 34th Street" and do not end up closing their doors.
