'Guiding Light' goes out today
The “Guiding Light” gets extinguished today. The winner of 69 daytime Emmy awards over 72 years, the low-rated soap opera is one of the last of the fading genre to go.
The show’s dwindling fan base has remained dedicated. A solicitation for readers’ thoughts on the cancellation resulted in a pile of e-mail messages from fans, including several profiled in this recent column.
The final episode of “Guiding Light” airs today at 2 p.m. on CBS. If you miss it (or desire communal closure for the saga of the Bauer, Lewis, Cooper and Spaulding clans) the Alamo Drafthouse is hosting a final episode watching party at its Village location tonight at 10 p.m.
Here is a promo for the final episode:
