Members cct Posted June 10, 2016 Members Share Posted June 10, 2016 I'm not familiar with "Spoonful," but I agree that this was a wonderful interview. He was very well-versed and clearly a fan, but he wasn't overly pandering. As always, La Lucci was gracious and taken aback. Learning about her grandson was touching and brought out a very real side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jonathan Posted June 15, 2016 Members Share Posted June 15, 2016 Thanks! I've watched this particular clip through the years. I think I have it memorized. Love seeing Susan interact with her co-stars. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members danfling Posted June 24, 2016 Members Share Posted June 24, 2016 Do you think that when the show had Dr. Chuck Tyler and Donna Beck marry for the second and last time that the fans were clamoring for a reunion to each other? Over the years, writers broke them up. Both of them were involved with other people. Chuck married Carrie. He also was involved with Devon. Did he and Melanie Sawyer (Carol McCleur) have an attraction? Donna married both Palmer and Benny. She lived with Tom briefly, and she dated Ross. If I left out anyone connected with these two characters, please add to the list. But, I am told that Trisha Pursley (Devon) was happy when Devon was involved with Chuck, but Richard van Fleet told her that it was not good because the show seemed to be writing their eventual write-offs. Devon and Chuck broke up (and she left town again), and he and Donna reunited in a haste before being written off. Do you think that this reunion was initiated by the viewers? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted June 24, 2016 Members Share Posted June 24, 2016 Yeah, I kinda do. They were trying to 'TNG' the show with a lot of new people at this time and there send off was probably a nod to the fans. On a side note, what does everyone think of FMB's run on the show in retrospect? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ghfan89 Posted June 25, 2016 Members Share Posted June 25, 2016 Didn't Chuck leave by himself after breaking up with Devon? Donna was around for a few years without him with Benny. Chuck was brought back later after Emily Ann was SORASed along with Billy Clyde. There was a writer turnover where McTavish took over from Agnes around the time Emily Ann, Chuck and Donna all left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Leoruby Posted June 30, 2016 Members Share Posted June 30, 2016 (edited) I've been watching old episodes on Youtube. There are gaps of course that left me with some questions. Was Dottie still around when Andrew killed Alex Hunter? What were her and Edna's exit storylines? How did Alfred Vanderpool, Bob Georgia and Amanda Cousins leave? Did Benny love Nina or was it one-sided? After Ted and Tad's showdown in Canada what happened to Ted? Seriously, the websites I've been to skip over this part. For all I know he died. Any info on Mimi Reed's family? I'm up to her and Derek's wedding and haven't heard any mention of them.

Members DRW50 Posted July 1, 2016 Members Share Posted July 1, 2016 Found this in an old commercial reel on Youtube and made a promo of it. I wonder if the story itself was this cheesy and overwrought... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted July 1, 2016 Members Share Posted July 1, 2016 This was when AMC tried unsuccessfuly to sell GF's Ceara as a gold-digging vixen, coming between father and son. I don't recall the Ceara/Jeremy/David triangle being as cheesy as that promo, but I DO recall feeling a sense of whiplash when the triangle morphed into a full-blown Jeremy/Ceara romance, as well as with the revelation that Ceara had been abused sexually by her father as a child. In retrospect, however, it made sense for Agnes Nixon to go in that direction. GF WANTED to portray an un-Laura-like character, but I don't believe she had (or has) it in her. But she DID have good chemistry with Jean LeClerc; and that, along with the sexual abuse storyline, fostered Ceara's transformation into a less vixenish, more sympathetic heroine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 1, 2016 Members Share Posted July 1, 2016 Do you think Ceara could have lasted on the show if ABC hadn't put Genie back on GH? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted July 2, 2016 Members Share Posted July 2, 2016 (edited) Frankly, Carl, I don't. IIRC, GF didn't have much to do once Ceara and Jeremy had married. I remember she was in some Enchantment-related scenes with Erica and maybe Jack, but that's about it. (Aside from being brained by Janet with a hospital lamp, of course.) Once Ceara had been outed as a child abuse survivor and had married Jeremy (in a godawful, Geoffrey Beene-designed gown that made poor GF look frumpy), it was as if the writers had stopped writing for her -- probably because, one, Ceara had become almost the total opposite of Agnes Nixon's original vision; and two, her place on the canvas as "'90's businesswoman" had been filled already by Natalie (who was still on the show, I think, but not with Kate Collins) and Brooke. Yet, for whatever reason, GF has said she really enjoyed being on AMC and hated when ABC told her (and I'm paraphrasing) she was worth more to them as Laura Spencer than as Ceara Connor Hunter. More likely, if GF had been allowed to re-up with AMC, she might've stuck around as a supporting player -- not an insignificant character, but probably not as on the front-burner as others -- until she followed Jean LeClerc over to LOVING. As it was, they had her stand-in mop play Ceara (either before GF had returned to GH, or after) for the character's death scenes in order to allow Jeremy to develop new romantic relationships in Corinth.
