Talk:Another World (TV series)

message: When the article says that Another World was "the first to move from live broadcasts to videotape," what is it the first of?  Is it actually the first television show to use videotape?  Or just the first soap opera, as I'm supposing?  Isomorphic 00:57, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it is the first soap opera to do so. I will modify the article to note that. TheCustomOfLife 01:00, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  We seemed to have dropped the information altogether "The show transitioned from black-and-white to color in 1966 and was the first soap opera to move from live broadcasts to videotape, in the late 1960s." — Matt 19:18, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)

text: No, January 6, 1975 was the first time any soap opera, anywhere in the world, aired hour-long episodes on a regular basis (and not for a one-time special or anything). Mike H. That's hot 18:48, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Whatever happened to the theme song? I haven't heard it on the radio EVER! Did NBC pull it off the charts because it was on Another World?

thread_title: Coffee-table high melodrama

message: I could read the article now, but I guess the intro is to be understood with the rest of the article
:There were 8891 episodes of Another World produced. Another World was created by Irna Phillips to be a spin-off of another soap opera As the World Turns. The shows were on competing networks, and CBS would not allow a spin-off on NBC. Ironically, the show spawned two official spin-offs: Somerset (1970-1976) and Texas (1980-1982). 
So it was created as a spin-off? But a spin-off wasn't allowed? How could CBS not allow it? How did NBC manage to do it anyway? And that's ironic about some show that might have been a spin-off to spawn spin-offs. Oh, you mean that have been official spin-offs of off ATWT? That might make it ironic, but I don't think the text makes that clear.

message: As editor of the AW history page, the Another World Home Page (listed as the first External Link) and somewhat of an expert on the show, I would like to improve the page.

message: This concerns POV tag cleanup.  Whenever an POV tag is placed, it is necessary to also post a message in the discussion section stating clearly why it is thought the article does not comply with POV guidelines, and suggestions for how to improve it.  This permits discussion and consensus among editors.  This is a drive-by tag, which is discouraged in WP, and it shall be removed. Future tags should have discussion posted as to why the tag was placed, and how the topic might be improved.  Better yet, edit the topic yourself with the improvements.  This statement is not a judgement of content, it is only a cleanup of frivolously and/or arbitrarily placed tags.  No discussion, no tag.Jjdon (talk) 22:23, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
