Cady McClain as Pamela Curtis, a model whose love life has taken a tabloid-worthy turn as a result of her divorce, she is best friends with Dani Dupree and together, the women will stir up some trouble.

Re Cady McClain, I'd be curious to know who approached whom. Did the BTG producers recruit her or did she make the first overture? She's become a known show-hopper so I'd be surprised if she stuck around beyond the next sweeps period if that long.

But anyways...All My Children fans represent for Dixie!

Cady is very big and surprising news. I liked her as Dixie on All My Children well mostly I hated when they paired her with Brian.

I mostly enjoyed her on As The World Turns. She had a horrifying scene where her and Roger Howarth played with water glasses and it was so irritating I switched the channel lol.

Tamara Tunie was on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night. I was stunned and impressed with her regal and imposing bearing. It was almost like she was staying in character as Anita Dupree. Colbert usually manages to crack a joke or two with every guest no matter how important they are, but you could see he was not gonna try it with TT. (Also, word may have come down from the CBS bigwigs not to say anything remotely sarcastic or negative about BTG.)

Well I have set my DVR to record this but honestly I don't know how I will fit in an hour long show, 5 eps a week. That's the schedule right?

I am a soap fan, but that's a big commitment now lol. More than anything thst might affect how long I stick with it.

Are there any shows that maintain that type of schedule anymore? I guess the current running soaps, none of which I watch. Those soaps I assume are existing on long time viewers.

But series tend to run shorter now, even reality tv shows. I wonder if they've considered that impact in trying to get a new audience.

This is how I feel every year with Love Island USA- and that is 6 eps a week, each with a longer running time than 60 minutes. I'll probably end up watching a lot of BTG episodes on the weekends, or even Sunday nights, when I am usually light on shows to watch. 

I'll say again-- I'm so glad to see a new soap on a major broadcast network and the amount of publicity it is getting (I think I saw on Twitter that there is a huge Times Square billboard for the show). I've never watched a soap from the beginning, so this will be great.

I have a feeling this will be me after the first week or two. But with streaming, it still gets counted. 

The advantage BTG has is that it all will be new and shiny. The existing soaps are really tired.

I guess this is technically Anticipation since it was presented on the eve of the premier: The Paley Center for Media had a sit-down hour with Sheila Ducksworth, Tamara Tunie, and Daphnee Duplaix.

Some good behind-the-scenes and backstory stories of how the show came about.  As someone noted above, even in a less formal Q&A format, Tamara Tunie REALLY commands a room.
