We now return to our regularly scheduled program: ABC's soap opera One Life to Live took a break from its normal storylines of backstabbing and adultery to bask in the spiritual glory of Rosh Hashanah. On Monday's episode, the show Nora (Hillary B. Smith) and her son Matthew (played by Eddie Alderson) celebrated Rosh Hashanah and look forward to the start of the new year. They talked about having cast off their sins as bread crumbs into the river, and light candles and say Kaddish for loved ones who have died. During the celebration of Rosh Hashanah, Matthew confesses to Nora that he tried to get her back together with his father Bo Buchanan (played by Robert S. Woods). Besides the fact we don't recite Kaddish for loved ones on Rosh Hashanah -- it's called Yizkor and it's recited on Yom Kippur -- we're wondering what a kid named Matthew is doing at Rosh Hashanah services.
