Episode Notes
Anthony, David, Candice, and Ashley
Special Appearance: Carolyn 🌈
Last night on Next Generation Entertainment Soaps, we celebrated Pride Month with a heartfelt and lively conversation about queer representation in daytime television—from the trailblazers of the past to the possibilities of the future.
We revisited landmark characters and storylines that changed the soap landscape forever:
Billy Douglas on One Life to Live,
Bianca Montgomery and Zoe on All My Children,
Luke and Noah on As the World Turns,
Will and Sonny on Days of Our Lives,
and Maya Avant on The Bold and the Beautiful.
We showed some love to “Teriah”—Mariah and Tessa on The Young and the Restless—and explored the emotional depth of Aiden Spencer’s quietly groundbreaking coming out on General Hospital.
But we didn’t stop there.
Our conversation turned bold as we tackled what’s still missing in daytime: more expansive trans and non-binary representation, more relationship-driven LGBTQIA+ storylines, and a broader reflection of the real diversity within our community. We even sprinkled in some thoughts on nighttime dramas and what we hope to see across all platforms in the years to come.
And of course, we wrapped up with what you come to love from us the most:
🔥 Suspense
📺 Spoilers
🎭 Casting shake-ups
💬 Snark
… and full recaps from:
The Bold and the Beautiful
The Young and the Restless
Beyond the Gates
Days of Our Lives
General Hospital
Next Generation Entertainment Soaps is live every second and fourth Monday of the month at 7:30 PM Eastern on 20-20 The Beacon, and available on-demand wherever you get your podcasts.
