This seems to be a better quality copy of Bar Girls, Marcy Walker's 1990 pilot, than what was already on Youtube.

If they don't reupload in a while I might try to put some on Archive.

Laura and Susan Keith really carry what I managed to get through of 1980, along with a few others.

That's fascinating. I wonder if it's a reflection of what a malaise ABC was in by this point.

Sorry if this was already posted. I didn't see it but I might have missed it. https://deadline.com/2024/08/londie-favors-dead-the-real-housewives-of-atlanta-porshas-family-matters-1236039582/

I'm going to wait a while to see if the uploader puts the episode back up. If not I may try it on Archive.

Thanks. I am not good at keeping up with all the dates the way you guys are. (and I meant 13, not 12 - edited it)

Appreciate your season 7 rundown @Vee If any of you happen to be watching to season 13, whenever that appears, could you let me know if the Christmas episode has Michele Lee singing a tribute to Steve Shaw? That was cut from the Soapnet repeats. I've never seen it.

Thanks. I didn't realize they had so many floating Lisas in the early/mid '90s. A lot of that time is available so maybe her episode is around somewhere.

I do appreciate the idea of them staying solid as a couple. Unfortunately, I just have no great use for either of them in the last 4-5 years of the show, but I do look forward to how you view them. Philip Brown also had the role of Ben but left due to overwork or not feeling he could play the part.

They tease Mack cheating for years. If there was a veto in place I wonder why they kept trying. Maybe because they ran out of natural story for Mack and Karen a number of years before the show ended. I think the only place I really enjoyed Hunt Block was on GL.

@dc11786 Thanks for all this extra info. I can't say anything about Salem's Children is wowing me. I feel bad for Janice Lynde though.

You're right. It's one of the reasons I am not going to pay a lot of attention to the convention as the narrative has already been written - they are going to will a Trump comeback with their last breaths.

Thanks again!

I read an article a few days ago about them trying to avoid celebrities after having so many at the 2016 DNC. Probably not a bad idea. (sorry, Katy Perry) Thanks. In other circumstances I think they would have had a point about "weird," as it could have been run into the ground, but the GOP responded so defensively and handled the criticisms so poorly, it worked out in the end.

I do think from what we've seen of Nancy that she would not have married again. Some women just won't. I wonder how Helen Wagner felt about the marriage. With that said, when I started watching ATWT, Mac and Nancy were married, and I thought they were a sweet couple. The Alzheimer's story also gave Helen Wagner some chances to act, combining sorrow and grace in a way few others could.

I liked the Billy and Reva friendship because I felt like he knew the real her and accepted her, which Josh never could. He also had a lot of self-loathing, which the show never did a great deal with, but fit him to Reva. I do think Reva got off too lightly with the Lewis family for bedding three of them (and four if Kyle had been HB's son), but as @Mitch64 mentioned before, Reva was more of a man's woman. It's one of the reasons throwing a few female friends at her when she came back never really worked, maybe other than Abigail.

That's awful. I saved everything but hopefully it will pop up again - on Youtube or on Archive. I don't even know what it would have been - maybe the AMC episodes? Or maybe some of the Capitol or GL. I don't know. I know some people just like to report these channels out of spite. And they had content that in some cases I've never seen anywhere else, like the Loving episodes. This is why content is so difficult to find. They don't want to make the material available for fans in any way, shape or form.

Oh yes. Poor Alicia too. I am not sure how that story would have played out if not for how terrific Linda, John and Alicia were together.

I hadn't heard. A shame. He was very good as Lucas - the part wouldn't have worked without his charm or his chemistry with Linda Dano. Linda's lost so many people. I hope she is doing OK right now.

She just has some sporadic IMDB credits as a scriptwriter after Marland comes in - the last I see is Craig and Sierra's wedding.

Thanks for all of the articles. I was hoping one of the other Senate races in Florida or Texas would open up, but it's not likely. I have heard some complaints about the poor race Colin Allred is running in Texas - I believe he's even turned down speaking at the DNC and people have said he's barely running ads. Cornel West's Michigan problems. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2024/08/16/cornel-west-disqualified-from-michigan-ballot-over-notary-problems/74831400007/ I wouldn't be surprised if those who lean to West or Stein will just end up going for Trump anyway, but it's still right to put down this grifter enterprise. Speaking of scum:

That was a perfect scene, especially the end where after he lets her go on about being with Bob and planning to marry him, he tells her he already knew thanks to Dusty. This moment, and the scene with Margo and Dusty, is what I miss most in the Marland era - these authentic conversations rather than the more formal, strained sense.

Thanks so much @Vee love seeing Sheryl there.

I wonder if any also had bad deja vu from GL having a deaf antagonist a few years earlier (well, fake deaf). @Xanthe As someone who hasn't watched a ton of that period and finds some details exhausting, I appreciate the detailed info.
