Members All My Shadows Posted March 29, 2016 Members Share Posted March 29, 2016 He played Bill Winters. Their storyline was on the frontburner for several months in the reruns. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 29, 2016 Members Share Posted March 29, 2016 I didn't realize he was still alive. He was so typical of soaps of that era, even though the rest of the show was somewhat atypical. I think his one-on-ones with Althea were the best use of the character, although I did like the end of the adoption story with Ruth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dave_01 Posted March 30, 2016 Members Share Posted March 30, 2016 The cable channel FamilyNet started airing Benson reruns a few months ago. It's the first time I've gotten to see the show in years. James and Robert Guillaume worked so well together, and the show is still fun to watch. I liked getting to see James as Dr. Winters in those 1st few weeks of Retro's TD reruns. Those lengthy dialogues between Winters and Althea were great. RIP, James. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 26, 2016 Members Share Posted June 26, 2016 I think this has been around before, maybe on saynotoursoap, but this channel has a lot of soap material so I assume it's theirs. Seeing this again after finally getting to see more of Carolee Campbell makes me see what a good (if very somber) recast Jada Rowland was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted July 3, 2016 Members Share Posted July 3, 2016 I wonder if that is saynotoursoap's DM channel. Is that strike material? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted July 3, 2016 Members Share Posted July 3, 2016 I was thinking it's his DM channel too b/c the person there uses the same icon pic as he did on YT. I started following them earlier this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted July 19, 2016 Members Share Posted July 19, 2016 Sad to hear. I wonder if his family have watched any of the reruns. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted July 19, 2016 Members Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) Sorry but Danfling is confusing the Pollocks with Jerome and Bridget Dobson. The Pollocks wrote Brighter Day,Love of Life The Doctors,General Hospital and Dynasty. Edited July 19, 2016 by Paul Raven 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted July 19, 2016 Members Share Posted July 19, 2016 Yeah, I was about to say, I don't recall the Pollocks having anything to do with SB, considering they were knee-deep in Dynasty at the time. It's actually pretty interesting to me as I'm watching both their Dynasty and their Doctors sorta concurrently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
