Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Passions, the cult soap opera that cast its spell on millions of viewers in the late '90s and early 2000s, was unlike anything else on daytime television. With supernatural twists, shocking scandals, and jaw-dropping storylines, it captured hearts and built a devoted fanbase that still can't get enough.At the center of it all was James E. Reilly, the visionary and fiercely private head writer whose bold, rule-breaking imagination made the show unforgettable.Step behind the scenes with candid stories from the writers, cast, and crew: the chaos, pranks, heartbreaks, and creative mayhem that made Passions as wild off-screen as it was on. Relive forbidden romances, spellbinding mysteries, and outrageous twists-from Tabitha, the 300-year-old witch, to Timmy, the living doll.These moments became cult favorites long after the final episode aired, resurfacing in unexpected corners of pop culture, syndication, and even on loop at a New York City gay bar.Whether you're a longtime fan reliving the magic, a newcomer curious about a millennium-era phenomenon, or a television historian fascinated by risk-taking storytelling, Passions: Sins, Spells, Secrets is your front-row seat to one of the most unconventional, scandalous, and unforgettable experiments in television history-and the story of the creative mind who believed that melodrama could be divine."This book argues that Passions, like the best and worst parts of life, was outrageous, emotional, flawed, and eternal. It was a beautiful, chaotic experiment that changed daytime television forever-precisely because it refused to follow the rules."- Tray Burch, author of Castleton
