She's really good because she makes me loathe Penny, lol!

@slick jones Re Marilyn Maxwell & RTPP, I found an article that said she had been considered for the role of Constance McKenzie, but died before a decision was made.

I don't care for Belle and unfortunately Shawn is mainly seen as her appendage these days. Shawn and Eli are cousins but I'm not sure that's ever acknowledged. Shawn should be around for whatever is happening with Doug (especially since Hope will be a no-show unless there is a recast), but the last time Shawn mentioned him, he referred to him by his first name, rather than Grandpa.

@Paul RavenCarolee's movie was a Sunday afternoon special and, as was mentioned above, it was about the baby having Down syndrome. Althea finally having a showdown with her 13-year old brat, Penny. From the May 14, 1969, episode.

Don't think I would have found the name if you hadn't found the date!

That does make sense. Ron has finally gotten me interested in something anyway, lol.

I'm really happy for Bill. So glad he isn't going to have to play out a depressing dementia storyline. I saw many people thinking he had it in real life. Obviously he does not. I've never seen Doug acting evil in any way before. Even when he was supposed to be "bad" he was more of a rascal than anything, lol. Also glad they've calmed Julie down. Hope that continues.

@amybrickwallace Yes, it is. I'm sure Bill and Susan were thrilled to hear from them too. Great to see my favorites getting so much love lately. And I might be shipping Wesley and Gregg now (have no idea whether they're more than friends of course), lol.

Honestly, the picture amused me more than anything. Victoria especially looks ridiculous. You'd think if they were such a great couple that they'd want to create their own "moments," instead of trying to copycat the original popular Days couples. They've made it all the way back to Doug and Julie now, so I guess Tom and Alice will be next.

🤣 I enjoyed when she collapsed in the elevator and the door kept hitting her! 😜

Well, you know how I feel about Sarah. 😜 I was happy they moved on from her.

Yep, TD did a great job in casting that character.

It is, lol. She definitely had star quality already though. She was only 23 here.

@allmc2008Tom had seen the medical report but Mickey never did (Mickey had been tested for reasons I don't remember). I think Laura asked him not to tell Mickey. Bill read it too and that's how he found out.

I think so. Plus, she really didn't have chemistry with Glen Corbett. Would have been better paired with Colin!

It did for a while. She had the worst writing of the three Nolas. It was all over the place.

I’m not sure.

I was lucky enough to see them all at the same time but it spoiled me for later years, lol!

I know I'm biased because she's my favorite, but Bill Bell himself said that Susan Seaforth taking over the role of Julie (in December 1968) made a big difference in Days gaining popularity. I don't think the previous Julies could hold their own with Denise Alexander.

Aww, how nice. Thanks for sharing!
