I've done a bit of counting myself back in the day and some results are a bit different:

why were there only 15 episodes in July this year?

why were there only 15 episodes in July this year?

Because they aired a special week (July 28 - August 1) that had 5 special episodes about what happened during the first 7 months. Also, June 30 - July 7 was pre-empted for Wimbledon.

Did you watch the eps?, or did you do the recaps?, i did both the recaps and i also did a double check on IMDB,.

On Meg, we can do a diffrence:
J F M A M J J A S O N D
19 17 15 15 13 16 13 18 17 16 16 18

Is the counts accurate with yours?
Otherwise it is very hard to find out wich of the lists are ok, i have done many checks and with what i have seen, my list should be ok, but if you are very sure, with your list, one of us is wrong!.......

First 30 eps or so were on YouTube and other Video Serices plus I have old Soap Central recaps (full episodes) plus SuBeRules.

Here is Meg's breakdown:
18 18 16 17 13 16 18 17 18 17 18

But it's definitely true... minor mistakes can happen (I wish I had the entire series so I could watch it all, but I can't).

Here is one thing... DEL DOUGLAS... Your credits say that he appeared 5 times, but he actually appeared 7 times. He appeared 5 times during the first two weeks, then he appeared on the reading of Del's will (videotape) and he appeared once more as a figment of Annie's imagination (her first conversation with Del from Hell).

IMDB is extremly unreliable. Most of the time for the soaps someone just clicks a bunch of names for the episodes especially since their episode feature was just started over a year ago so people weren't watching and keeping track to put in.

That's true. Various episodes listed characters that didn't even appear in some of those episodes.
