DRW50

Tina returned briefly in season 2 and Julie was killed off. She's never spoken of the show that I can find, but I guess they just treated it as a gig and Julie as just another of the many women (I guess the first of those women) to be a corpse for Cliff and JR. I do remember liking her work in the role.

Or he's like his niece Daisy and never gets past about 18.

I don't know how long this will last so enjoy it while you can. For April Fool's (I assume) the Weather Channel has put up a "retro" version of their '90s style template, including that soothing soft jazz. https://weather.com/retro/

Thanks @slick jones a reminder to me that there was a Quantum Leap reboot. What a fascinating life Bernay lived.

I edited my post to mention that she does have GL on her credits, even if her IMDB doesn't. I guess this must be her role.

@alwaysAMC It sure looks like her! @slick jones This may interest you. Lea's credits mention GL, even if her IMDB doesn't. Lea Michele | Broadway Artists Alliance

Thanks for watching it. It was new to me. I know that was a whole series (I think Hayley had one of her own, or Hayley and Brian). That's also the Charlie who was briefly involved with Erica.

Thanks @Soapsuds last year I had seen his social media pages but everything seemed to end in the late '10s. Glad he's still involved. I wish they could have an episode with just the Alan Michaels (if the last actor even wants to talk about that mess).

Posted a few days ago but thank you. Sorry I forgot to tag you.

Thanks again @slick jones A nice tribute to Valerie Perrine. I'm glad someone benefited from giving Evan a son and then killing him off. I love that there's an actress named Katie Keane. Everyone draw some clothes and send her the designs.

Oh you're right. That was very clever to tie the two together (and if not for Andrew Lloyd Webber we never would have had Phyllis [or Nina]...).

Instagram GH's 63rd birthday video. I had to watch this a few times. Very fun. I forgot how hard "Birthday" goes for such a silly little song. I especially like the end of the video. Wally Kurth must have been locked in Salem when this was filmed. I'm posting here since (as mentioned in the main GH thread) it has Ethan.

That's a neat idea. Many Broadway performers have been on soaps but I'm not sure we've had this type of crossover.

He truly was forgettable as I think this is the second or third time this has happened (that and many were not watching by then - I didn't start back until the last year so I'll include myself). I suppose that's one benefit of giving Alan a long lost son. (I'm also glad they never had Gus and Alan fighting over a woman - imagine a GL where they fought over Harley...)

Happy birthday to Don. It was lovely to see him on Locher Room last year, even if the circumstances were sad.

Rusty is the one I remember popping up the most. I wonder if Terrell ever talked about why he didn't come back for the end. I assume he was asked. I can't remember if they ever said anything about Rusty's life while he was away or if he just came and went. After all the damage Dinah did to Vanessa it is only right that she helped Vanessa return. Still, what a monkey's paw to get Vanessa back on and giving her some of the material I never thought she'd have regarding Matt and Billy - a shame Ross ended up going.

The Game Show Vault put up two April Fool's episodes for the John Davidson era Hollywood Squares (the one I have the fondest memories of due to childhood). @DaytimeFan You may enjoy this as they use Joan Rivers in a fun way. New Hollywood Squares|Episode #040188

She did, yes. I suppose Rauch or whoever was trying harder for the anniversary. I was so pleasantly surprised when Maeve returned as after the coma months and her exit I didn't know if we'd ever see Vanessa again.

Welcome @Allan00 Do you ever read the Search thread? You may enjoy it.

@alwaysAMC Thanks (belatedly) for your latest recap. I had forgotten Dylan got these nice moments with Susan. I did remember Annie choosing the dramatic moment to end her feud with Reva, but appreciate the details. I wonder if they gave a reason why Trish wasn't there. I was going to say she wouldn't have missed Josh's wedding but then I remembered she only went to one of them. Can't say I blame her there. I'm glad they mentioned Hamp one last time. I wonder if they said he was dead or just spoke of him through the wedding memories. A shame they couldn't bring Gilly back at this time as Amelia Marshall was off AMC or soon would be.

I think the main difference is if Kirsten had been there they likely would have reunited and we would have seen her sense something was wrong, instead of that beat being done in about a week.

I think this was always the plan - KS' absence just put a big wrench in the execution.

I think Grant Aleksander mentioned that when Ron Raines called to tell him the show had been canceled, he had to say it wasn't an April Fool's joke. Kim's over 70 now and recently had cancer so I don't think she would be as heavy in story as she was before. I would probably start with the kids and grandkids of established families - Bauers, Spauldings. A new family or two as well, depending on whether the show is an hour or a half-hour. I might tie the new family to characters who were on the radio show. You wouldn't have to have a big mention, it could just be a tie viewers would know if they wanted to go and look. Of course, you'd have to have the established characters but some I'd just have as guest spots.
