Get ready for a serious blast from the past, because the first teaser trailer for General Hospital star Kimberly McCullough's (Robin Scorpio Drake) loosely autobiographical 1980s soap opera-inspired series, Hey Day, has hit the net.
The colorful clip (both in hue and NSFW language) features GH star Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) as the executive producer of a fictional daytime series consoling a character audiences can only guess must be a fictional version of McCullough.

Hey Day also features Bree Williamson (Claudette Bolland, GH; ex-Jessica Buchanan, One Life to Live) as a cocaine-loving former ballerina turned soap star.
"This is a show that I have been conceiving for a while and it all started because as I got older, I started to hear stories from, you know, the soap legends about what it was like in the '80s and it was just a different time," McCullough shares. "Even though I was an actress on the show, I was a kid, so I didn't quite understand the debauchery that was going on -- or rather, I was shielded from it. So anyway, it became very interesting to me and so I wrote the show and I'm planning on pitching it to the different networks.
PS: McCullough asks that fans use the hashtag #80sheydaysoap when sharing the video or posts about the project. "That way, when I'm talking about it to different companies, I can actually say to them, 'These people actually want to see the show.'"
