including the actors! Psst. Want to hear a few juicy daytime secrets? You know, like who's the father of Amber's baby on THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL, or whether Luke and Laura will ever reunite on GENERAL HOSPITAL? Interested? Well, sorry.

Soap aren't the only genre where storylines are guarded like state secrets. Actors in movies by Woody Allen are only given script pages with their characters' dialogue on them; they don't even know what's going on in the rest of the movie until they see the finished product months later. And primetime TV is just as secretive. When it came time to prepare the ultra-hush-hush final episode of MELROSE PLACE, which airs on May 24, scripts were sealed in wax, stamped with individual serial numbers, hand-delivered to cast members and put through the shredder as soon as they were used. And, reportedly, several potential endings may have been filmed to confuse the cast and crew - and spies!
