DRW50

Thanks. That's lovely.

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Yes. This issue was dated December 17, so probably October or November.

I don't think she was even playing Mindy. It was an extremely weak, limited portrayal. Very difficult to watch.

I had to trawl through Google. That tribute of yours will never leave us though. I don't know if another soap that hadn't been established/dominant for as long as Y&R had would have survived the MAB years. The interviews alone were meme hell.

Yikes. That was my reaction too, Ridge...

A December 1996 SOD mentions ATWT casting an upper-class guy in his 20s named Brad. They said Todd McKee was approached but declined. (Todd McKee was not in his 20s by that time)

Indeed.

Thanks @JAS0N47 . I'd forgotten John Aprea was on DAYS. So many tragic losses.

@Maxim Now there's a B&B horror I remember (I had never seen that Daphne woman - what a clip...). Another I remember from somewhere in that period was when Ridge took advantage of a drunk or pilled out Brooke and this was seen as no big deal.

Indeed. And on P&G as well. I tried to find the actual promo for her arrival and couldn't. I guess it now counts as lost media. Maybe not such a bad thing...

He played Patrick Donovan on Loving a few times around 90-91. The only other thing I remember is an SPW article from the mid '90s where he talked about using videos of some of his work in churches or something along those lines, to help with public speaking.

Thanks for reading. If I ever get a chance I'll dig out some of my other scans, even if I know it's not exactly rare content. That was some fun stuff. And helped explain Maggie later snapping, before that story was dropped.

Donna Mills interview (how did people feel about her arc - was she mentioned when Jane returned?).

Found some old scans. One a Bronson Picket interview. Sorry as I had a problem with my scanner for some of these. I hadn't seen this - an article Bronson's wife Lynn Snowden wrote in 2003 about being with a younger man (IMDB still has them together, whatever that's worth). Dating a Younger Man - O Magazine

@BoldRestless Glad you enjoyed it. Mike was fun for a while there. (I had forgotten he was still appearing up to 2023)

Found some old scans. Sorry as I had a problem with my scanner for some of these.

Here and there. I think her having a baby is mentioned at some point in the early '90s. And I think she is mentioned again when they bring her son Billy in for a year or two. Lyla's sister is the one who was never mentioned again that I heard.

Thanks so much @Franko

@Lust4Life76 Appreciate reading your thoughts on the show. Hopefully more will pop up in the next 15 years...

I wonder how all the "lgb without the t" people who insist if they play into transphobia, they will be spared feel about this. It blatantly says that homosexuality is nothing more than part of "political and religious discourse." They hate us and they don't even need to pretend otherwise.

I reuploaded the episodes that were taken down last year. If anyone knows the exact dates please let me know.

IIRC the Kasnoffs were part of his story projections, so somewhere up to then I suppose.

I would have a murder mystery for Drew. I think there's more for Willow if they play her as a schemer and bitch hiding behind a nice facade, maybe teaming up with Nina to notch some wins against Carly and the PC establishment, but meanwhile her resentment toward Nina builds and builds. Then I would have Nina be the one, finally seeing how much Willow truly wants to destroy her, who ultimately exposes her and sends her packing. Not sure what I'd do with Nina after that. Maybe she would have a breakdown and start all over.
