On Tuesday, August 10th, ABC and SOAPnet will pre-empt their entire slate of daytime dramas to present "Brenda's Men: A Special General Hospitall Marathon." This means that there will be no original episodes of All My Children, One Life to Live and General Hospital that day - but they all return on August 11th (along with Brenda!).

Vivica A. Fox (who appeared in DOOL, Generations and Y&R) appears on "Lopez Tonight" Wednesday, 7/14.

On soapnet.com and ABC.com starting in July, they will be showing webisodes of "What If?" where characters from various ABC soaps meet up (like GH's Sonny meets AMC's Erica, for instance).  Sounds cool! More info
