@AMEwrestling CBS made a ton of money from the daytime dramas but it always seemed to me that they were embarassed by their presence on the Paley-christended "Tiffany" network. When did abc get their first soap? That was when CBS started running promos. I worked 34 yrs for LIRR and Susan Lucci rode my train; couldn't act in my opinion---high camp
@IstvanN1961 Considering that it has been almost 50 years since this Historically Important Event, I would be surprised to get at least ONE positive response from my comment. And I will be turning 49 in October. I can see your point.
I see all of your comment, and I can't believe what I'm reading. Do any of you not remember that this was the Soap Opera that was interrupted by Bulletins from the assassination and death of President John F. Kennedy?
@AMEwrestling: The Days of Our Lives pilot (and every single episode) exists...they are stored in the same converted Utah salt mine the surviving Johnny Carson-era Tonight Show episodes are warehoused.
@fatmanfiftythousand If CBS "wiped" the pilot episode, they wiped away history. At least give credit to NBC for keeping the Days pilot and ABC for keeping the General Hospital pilot. Wiping the pilot episode the biggest mistake a network can make, don't you think?
That is odd the current Global logo is on the top of the video.

@Jiltedin2007 Duh, some of us were too little to remember that. Most people weren't born yet.

I think that was the special opening when they celebrated their anniversary a few years ago.
