This Friday is the last episode of Another World. A show beloved by a significant number of fans of all ages comes to an end after 35 years. Another World will be missed so much. It was a show character and story driven. Sometimes silly, sometimes touching, funny, and poignant. The love affair between Mac Cory and Rachel Hobson was one love story that could have lasted forever was cut short by Douglass Watson's untimely death. Vicky Wyndham has been the courageous matriarch of this show ever sine 1972. She has made Rachel Cory Hutchings, from a plain outcast to the lovable socialite. I'll miss so much about Another World. I think Cass WInthrop, Frankie Frame, and Kathleen McKinnon would have had such a wonderful threesome together. Felicia Gallant was truly another fun character. My favorite moments are with Carl Hutchings and his son, Ryan. Before the truth of Ryan's parentage, their relationship was great. Then the truth, I wished I had saved those episodes of the realization and Ryan's reluctance to accept this criminal as his father. He arrested his own father and that night in prison together. I'll also miss Grant and Cindy' s relationship too. I wished that I had saved those tapes and watched them from the beginning. They were my favorite couple to love and hate one another at the same time. So long Another World, you have a very special place in my heart. Right now, I will never forgive Mayor Rudolph Guiliani who allowed his former wife to make a cameo on the show but never bothered to save the show itself. 35 years of television history in favor of another Law and Order spin off. I don't care that anybody thinks I'm crazy for not forgiving Mayor Giulani for not lifting a hand. Now there are only 4 one hour daytime dramas filmed in New York City out of 9 on American television today. Every time, a show like Another World is cancelled, cast and crew members lose their jobs and face unemployment like the rest of us. Of course, a daytime actor lacks respect and payment compared to the wining babies over at ER. Sorry, Mayor Giulani, I can't forgive you for not saving this show from cancellation. But I guess you really wanted to host Saturday Night Live which is only live 20 times a year. Another World had an average of a 180 episodes per year.
