If you have Roku, the app is now available. Search "Watch the Doctors" in the channel store. However, I'm having the same buffering issues that are a problem on the website. I've told the person from Retro who has been updating us on Facebook. She implied it was an internet speed issue but I have no issues with any other streaming services that I have. I told her that others are having the same problem. She said she will pass the info to the technical people.

For what it's worth, the website is just a preview right now. It's supposed to be fully functional on this Thursday (Feb. 27). Hoping it will work better at that time. I've been told that Retro is aware of the buffering issue.

One of the first records I had as a child was the 45 of "Quentin's Theme." "#1 at the Blue Whale," was on the B side.

@Brolden There would not have been an NCAA basketball pre-emption in 1956. The tournament was held in March and the show premiered in April.

I can't believe they had Carolee ask Steve who could have sent them that crow's foot. Umm, how about the crazy cult you've been dealing with the last few days, lol. This story seems extra-strange when it's being told alongside the whole death-with-dignity thing they've been doing with Sarah's death.

You're welcome! It was interesting that they only taped ten days in advance back then. The story re having Addie killed in an accident rather than from leukemia has changed over the years though. Apparently, Patricia Barry had leaked the news of Addie's death from leukemia to a columnist friend of hers and the show received backlash from her fans. Supposedly, Bill Bell had Addie killed instantly, with no death scene, to keep her from having time to do the same thing six months later.

Soap Hoppers: The Soap Actors And Roles Thread
@slick jonesI found an article from March 1991 that says he had just finished taping his AMC role. The article also mentioned he had already been on Loving in a non-speaking role but I don’t know whether that was the same as the one you have listed.

The Dark Shadows newsletter, Shadowgram, is reporting that John Karlen has died. SHADOWGRAM UPDATE # 431 Wednesday, January 22, 2020 --Remembering John Karlen ******************************************** An Official Internet Publication of SHADOWGRAM – THE DARK SHADOWS NEWSLETTER ******************************************** ***** SHADOWGRAM UPDATE # REMEMBERING JOHN KARLEN It is with profound personal sadness that ShadowGram reports that beloved friend JOHN KARLEN passed away earlier today at age 86 of congestive heart failure in hospice care in Burbank, California. Of course, John is best-known among "Dark Shadows" fans as the scheming drifter Willie Loomis, who becomes an unwitting servant to vampire Barnabas Collins, eventually becoming a confidant as well as a character with empathy and a moral compass. John also was a longtime, generous supporter of DS fan efforts, readily helping the show enjoy a cult-classic afterlife by attending numerous DS Festivals as well as earlier DS-themed events, dating back to 1971 with John's participation in the "Miss American Ghost" contest to promote the release of the film "Night of Dark Shadows." Indeed, John continued to be a lively, willing, and warm presence across nearly 50 years of the original DS series' afterlife. When KHJ Television in Los Angeles began airing DS reruns in the mid-1970s, John joined a promotional blood drive. In 1977 he appeared as the first – and only - DS guest for the first-ever DS fan convention gathering, ShadowCon I, as part of the overall science fiction / fantasy / horror fan programming at StarCon in San Diego. This soon was followed by annual DS-focused ShadowCon fan conventions held in Los Angeles through 1984. Along with other original DS cast members, John was a regular guest. Subsequently, John participated in the annual Dark Shadows Festivals on the west coast starting in 1987 and he began attending the New York area DS Fests a decade later. At every DS event he attended, John was always a delight to be with, very open, outspoken, often teasing and yet also interested in individual people and shared experiences and ideas. Despite escalating health issues, John last traveled to New York to reunite with DS cast members in celebration of the show's 50th Anniversary in Tarrytown, NY in 2016. He also entertained fans at the DS Halloween Party in Hollywood, CA that same year. He made his last public appearance at the October 2018 Los Angeles sneak-preview of "Master of Dark Shadows" documentary in which he was interviewed. John always enjoyed the camaraderie of his fellow cast/crew members and interacting with fans of all ages from across the U.S, and beyond, including Canada, England, Australia, Mexico, and elsewhere. John loved acting and telling stories of his early days growing up in Brooklyn, his Polish ancestry, his early work on the stage, favorite actors and movies, and his love of sports, the race track, and a good meal. A veteran of the Korean war, John was a passionate man with a long life of adventures and accomplishments. His contributions both in front of and behind the camera will long be remembered by the countless friends and fans he touched along the way. We thank you, John, for bringing so much into our lives.

Yes, I remember that she did now that you mentioned it. Carrie somehow arranged for Eve to find Carrie's earring in Justin's bed and Eve told Jackie about it. Jackie left town shortly after that. I know Eve was around when Jackie's plane crashed, so Janet must have returned for a while.
