On January 25, 1937, Irna Phillips' iconic radio soap opera The Guiding Light premiered on NBC radio.

She had absolutely no idea the impact her serial drama would have on a closeted adolescent named Paul Gosselin, living in small town Vermont, many years later. All Paul wanted in life was to be a part of Guiding Light and so he did everything he could possibly do to achieve his dream. He wrote fan fiction online hoping his stories would find their way on his favorite soap opera. He joined the Official Guiding Light Fan Club to meet other equally obsessed Guiding Light fans. Then after high school, he moved to New York City to pursue what he believed to be his life’s purpose, become a star on Guiding Light. In 2009, Guiding Light was canceled and with two unsuccessful auditions to be on the show, Paul’s mission in life came to a dead end. At a crossroads, Paul left New York City and moved to Los Angeles. Misguided, the online comedy web series, follows Paul’s journey upon arriving in Los Angeles.

Part II of Misguided begins on February 22, 2017 and a new episodes will be released every Wednesday for five weeks on YouTube. The cast for Part II of the online comedy features Emmy nominated actresses: Jean Carol, Stephanie Gatschet, Crystal Hunt and Jacklyn Zeman.

WE LOVE SOAPS: You grew up in Texas and were a theater major in college at Stephen F. Austin. How early on in life did you know you wanted to be an actor?
Brad Maule: I didn't know exactly what I was going to do but I knew from the time I was two years old. When I plowed my parents never worried about me because they could hear me singing in the field. I was always a show business kind of person; I just didn't know how to manifest that.  I always felt different. I wanted to wear slacks when everyone else worse jeans. I wanted to live in a brick house and not a farm house. Just weird stuff. [Laughs]

Jacklyn Zeman is returning to GENERAL HOSPITAL as Bobbie Spencer, according to Soap Opera Digest.

"I am so pleased," Zeman told the magazine. "Literally, every day I am getting stopped on the street: 'Are you coming back?' It's a complicated question to answer because I always want to be positive and support the show, but at the same time, you don't want to lead people [on]. So I would say, 'Well, I haven't been invited yet.' Now, I'm so happy that when people ask me, I can say, 'I got invited back!'"
