Last week, P&G Productions said they're still trying to figure out a feasible way to bring Guiding Light back, and this
week, a P&G executive said they're working on bringing GL back as a web series! So it's unlikely that GL will be coming back to TV, but there is no
reason why GL couldn't come back as a web series! We just need to let P&G know we'd watch! They could begin production right now using the
cast members who are available, and then other cast members could return later. Everyone please send e-mails asking for GL as a web series to:
Jeannie Tharrington, Procter & Gamble Productions External Relations:
tharrington.jm@pg.com Lucas Watson, Global Team Leader, Digital Business Strategy at P&G:
watson.l@pg.com Dave Knox, Brand Manager, Digital Innovation at P&G Productions:
knox.d@pg.com Write your own e-mail
if you'd like, or if you'd prefer to just copy, paste, and send a
pre-written e-mail (which you may edit as you see fit), you can find one
here. Please be sure to include your age in your email because we need to
let P&G know that people of all ages love GL! LET'S GET GL BACK AS A WEB SERIES!

Jordan Clarke (ex-Billy Lewis) recently suffered a mild stroke while
working on the web series "Venice" in LA. His prognosis is good and he's
expected to fully recover, but he will be in rehab for six weeks. You may post well wishes on his fan club's
message board at www.jordanclarke.com or send a get-well card to OJCFC, PO Box 73, Bloomingdale, GA

Event in Las Vegas on December 5.
Congratulations to Jeff

the Daytime Emmy Awards held in LA on August 30, 2009.
