What an amazing show Guiding Light. I just don't get it. This beautiful ensemble piece gets caneled, but they leave the other tripe they call "reality tv" on forever! What the ell?!?
Why would he sing 'Downtown'? It's such an old song. Did the Pet Clark song really come on or was it added by the person who uploaded the video? Kind of strange... don't you think?
Years ago I also asked him for a picture but he never answered... same for Fiona Hutchison (ex-Jenna). I know that he hates to do publicity, but we can try to ask him again..., maybe for 2 of his greatest fans he makes an expeption...
Justin will be the only one who I'll miss when GL ends. He's magic. E enjoyed her portrait of GL since he arrived in February 1993. On my estimation the Best Character & the Best Actor Ever.
Hi, proud2Bprude! Nice to meet you online... I guess that many people loves Justin... The greatest actor on daytime. He has everything: look, talent & charisma. Ciao.
Hi there! I've created my Youtube channel for Guiding Light fans who want to come onto Youtube and revisit some of their favorite scenes/see some montages, not for ex-Guiding Light fans to insult the show and wish it was already off the air. If you don't have anything positive to say about the show, please don't comment on my Guiding Light videos in the future.
Justin Deas is definetly one of the best in daytime. He deserves an Emmy not ony for this show but for his work the entire week after Coop died. In real life your grieve for awhile and Buzz conveyed this. He didn't say goodbye to Coop and then go on. He is still grieving.
what's happened to the production values for this show. I hear they shoot it with handheld cameras, i haven't watched in years as I live in the mid east now. I have tuned in after hearing about its demise. Can someone fill me in.
Guiding Light shoots all of their scenes digtally. They have tripods but unless it's a fairly still scene the cameramen hold them, which is why you see the slight swaying. It's a fraction of the cost of what the old format used to be, and if it weren't for Ellen Wheeler (EP) coming up with it, the show would have been cancelled last year. Telenext is looking for a new home for Guiding Light, it's off CBS but Guiding Light is still far from over. :)
I hope to God that GL will live on, but only if it returns to THE REAL GUIDING LIGHT. Every single thing about my all-time favorite daytime soap is horrid now! I don't give a damn about budget cuts. As I said in another comment, go out with a bang and ON TOP! Now, the ONLY saving grace that GL has is the return of Grant! I am thrilled that he is back, but I haven't seen any of his scenes b/c I have them recorded but I can't bare to watch.
Y&R would NEVER DREAM of using digital cameras! Yes, Y&R has a terrific budget, but soap operas are supposed 2 LOOK & SOUND "pretty," even when the worst things are happening. I love Justin D. & he is amazing in every scene, but Coop's death was as terribly unaffective as the death of Gus. I didn't FEEL anything! Back track to the deaths of Hart, Richard, Tammy-Those scenes were rip-your-heart-out, damn-good drama! Even the new theme song is wretched...So sad...
You would have to have a cold heart not to feel something watching Buzz shut off the machine on Coop like that. I don't get misty eyed often, but I sure did this time. When he shut off the machine, and he got weak in knees, so sad. There is a reason Justin Deas has all those Emmys, and he sure needs another one after this!
First of all well done GL!! I loved how GL didn't do the "normal" opening....everytime I was this I cry just as much as the day it aired!! Justin had better get an emmy! RIP Henry Cooper Bradshaw. Good luck John Driscoll!!
omg i was hysterical, i totally agree he deserves a emmy i woudnt be able to lay still there i was emotional just watching it it was definititly heartbreaking when he said see you later alligator.
If only he had made it to that last photo shoot I'm overly disappointed about that, I have had and lost some cast member photos but still have quite a few, however NONE at all of Justin. It's ok I guess I just wish he'd sent me one, But he never has. *sigh*
justin's best work ever!! 5:34

He sings "DownTown" because he called Jenna "Petula" when they first met because she reminded him of Petula Clark.

Off the subject, becaus we ALL know what a great actor Justin is! He has been
a favorite of mine since 1975 - Ryan's Hope! But it is time to cut the hour soaps
to half an hour, one hour is just too much
for the average working person, even if you tivo it, thats five hours of tv on the weekend, plus anything else one might
watch. It would cut the production cost
in half, and people like me, could tune
in daily. I think its time for to rethink
the dayime soap format again.
