I know! People forget about things like that when they get nostalgic for the '80s stories.

From 1982, on Days, the robot was invented by Chris Kositchek, with the help of Eugene Bradford. Alex Marshall used it to poison Kayla.

He appeared in a few 1974 episodes as himself. Can't remember the exact date. He was in the hospital with a broken leg and Laurie was his nurse. Here is a promo picture with Marie Thomas. Toni Kalem is signing his cast. She played one of the background nurses for a few episodes. Don't know the actress in the middle.

Part of a recent interview that Robert Clary did for The Television Academy Foundation.

This is little Tommy from LoL. I wonder whose child he could have been playing?

Recast Linda was one of the worst I've seen. Didn't capture the essence of Linda, at all.

I didn't like Fee at all as Mary. She played her all wrong. I wasn't sorry when Mary was murdered. Leslie James is the character who was involved with Chris. I don't remember Cassie being a major character.

No, I think she leaves (left) in early March.

I believe the picture with Alice Yourman's listing is actually Alice Faye. I wasn't able to post them here but I posted pictures of Alice Yourman at the usual place. @slick jones

Interview with Betty Corday, from 1967.

The Nick-propping was at its worst during the Pollock era. Everything was seen from his point-of-view. He could do no wrong. At least the writers prior to the Pollocks used to have other characters occasionally call out Nick on his bad behavior. If Nick wasn't featured, all the other characters talked about him, even after GG left. It's only since the Pollocks left that he hasn't been mentioned very much. I am not looking forward to his return. Yoking Althea to Nick has ruined her character (for me).

The flashbacks and endless recaps seemed to lessen after James Lipton left the writing staff.

Tim O’Connor (Elliott Carson) has died. https://www.theunion.com/news/obituaries/obituary-of-timothy-j-oconnor/

The description of Julie being sensuous is always how I think of her from that period. Bell wrote Lori on Y&R in a similar manner. I was disappointed with Susan's material at Y&R. Supposedly, Bell created the role of Stephanie on B&B with Susan in mind but she turned it down because she wanted to go back to Days. I guess it would have been better for her career if she had accepted it.

This is an October 1974 interview with Bryna Laub, publisher of Daytime Serial Newsletter. She talks about several shows but the largest portion is regarding Susan Seaforth Hayes and the way Bill Bell wrote for the character of Julie.

This is a 1973 interview with Bill Bell. It’s mostly about Y&R but he talks a bit about Days too.

Interview with Bill Bell from October 1973.

@slick jones A magazine article I have said that Patrick Horgan appeared on the radio version of The Road of Life in its last year (which I think was 1959). It didn’t give his character’s name.

They also played the theme from "Summer of '42" under one of the Mike and Toni scenes.

From 1981.

The Pollocks have made almost every character unlikeable. I also didn’t enjoy their obsession with the character of Nick, which still isn’t over, six months after Gerald Gordon left. Nick could do no wrong in their eyes, no matter how violent, uncaring, and/or misogynistic his behavior.

Stacy is around for a couple of years.

Anna lists her complaints in this article. There are SPOILERS in the article.

I seem to recall that Lauri left town before Hank did. I can't remember the circumstances though.
