Loved that music! I really REALLY miss my daily dose of Guiding Light.

[SharonTateFan4ever]

Lovely and hypnotic. Just as I remember.

[krystlerita]

Is that not beautiful music?

[Cyclops236]

I've never heard voiceovers that played at different times during the same credits.

Great memories. I'm going to remember Guiding Light for this era, and not the disaster it became under Ellen Wheeler and her "production model."

[disabled1955]

@antonzap even though that 'production model' stabilized with less jerky camera movement, i still wish they hadn't 'tried' that..it ain't been done since and i'm 99.9% positive it won't be done again.....

Too bad there weren't more black characters on the show. That happened in the early 1990s and ended in the late 1990s. The resurge of black characters on Guiding Light happened when Rick married that young woman, Mel. That was in 2002.

@DarthSnoopy96: Yes, that was one of the actors who played Hart. I forget his name but he left the show after being in a serious accident and was unable to work anymore.

I was 4 years old at the time.

[DarthSnoopy96]

Who is that nice-looking guy at 1:55?

I went and read the cast list carefully and it appears they omitted him. Was that the actor who played "Hart Jessop" at this time? I do remember his face...

My sister was born four days after this broadcast. Whoo!

[scoot1105]

Wow!! This was shown on my 20th birthday!!

[swimboy1982]

wow, this brings back memories.  I've forgotten about lots of these people. It changed alot after Maureen Bauer died.

[jiveturkey25]

Yeah, many said so.
