  1. This one is from a July 1973 Daytime TV (the first page mistakenly associates him with "Return to Peyton Place"):
  2. Thanks for the articles! Coincidentally, I just saw Mark Tapscott on a "Maverick" rerun. Encore Western is a great place to see the older soap stars in their earlier roles. I recently saw Peggy McCay also on "Maverick," and John Lupton on "Gunsmoke." And I never knew until his death that Edward Mallory was married to Suzanne Zenor. Maybe he learned his lesson from his earlier marriage to Joyce Bulifant which seemed to be documented a lot in the magazines.
  3. I remember reading last year that Lisa was directing the webseries "Gotham," which starred Martha Byrne (but I didn't see the series).
  4. These scenes are what drew me back to Guiding Light after not watching for several years. I was channel surfing and "Nola" caught my eye. I fell in love with her right away and rooted for her. Of course, I had missed everything leading up to this, or otherwise I might have been more sympathetic to Kelly and Morgan. Just adore Lisa Brown!
  5. I can't remember whether David found out about Brooke scheming. Shortly after all this occurred is when he had the car accident and was believed dead (while he was actually living with Valerie Grant and her family). I'm also not sure whether Alice found out about the rape. Of course, Tom knew the whole story the entire time but went along with Laura's wishes not to say anything. This story took place over a period of eight years and I do believe by the time the truth came out that the rape had been downplayed so that may not have been a factor in everyone's reaction. Amy, I liked Stanley Kamel on "Monk," too, as well as Days, of course. I think I have a few articles strictly about him. I'll try to find them and post them.
  6. Regarding Julie and Alice being at odds, Julie had moved into Doug's home when she was pregnant with Bob Anderson's baby (nothing romantic at that point). Julie's son David misunderstood something he saw between Doug and Julie and jumped to the conclusion that Doug was the father of the baby. Brooke Hamilton was stirring things up too. Somehow they convinced Alice that Doug and Julie were having an affair while he had been married to Addie (which was false) and Alice was furious with them both. Alice also was hard on Bill and Laura when Mickey had his heart attack (blaming them).
  7. Yes, and she got pregnant. Previously, she had a drunken one-night stand with David Martin, also resulting in pregnancy. Yet she was always considered the "good girl," and treated sympathetically. Shows what good writing and acting can do.
  8. I remember Stanley Kamel playing Eric Peters. I thought the storyline of Susan Martin having sex with a stranger (who turned out to be Eric) in a park was very interesting. Susan convinced herself and everyone else that she had been raped. I still remember Eric's brother, Greg, beating him badly when he learned that Eric was the man in the park. I'm trying to remember how Susan finally remembered what really happened. Maybe in her therapy sessions with Laura.
  9. Deidre Hall with Bill Hayes and Susan Seaforth Hayes at the time they recently taped the Christmas episodes.
  10. Susan Flannery was my favorite Laura but I liked Rosemary Forsythe too. I don't mind Jaime Lynn Bauer but Laura seems like a totally different character than the one the others played.
  11. Looks like an interesting documentary. Susan Oliver was my least favorite Laura (I don't remember Floy Dean) though. She just came across as kind of cold to me.
  12. I was holding out hope that it was a mix-up. Very sad news.
  13. I feel the same. Michael Logan from TV Guide said he's trying to get information.
  14. I'm looking for further confirmation. I found that the Charles Keating involved in the Savings and Loan scandal in the 80s died earlier this year so maybe there is some confusion. None of the soap media are reporting it.
  15. Alicia Coppola announced on Twitter that Charles Keating has died. alicia coppola‏@alicia_coppola Charles Keating has passed. I am so very sad. Along w/ @LindaDano he was my very first acting teacher. The actress I am is because of them. https://twitter.com/alicia_coppola/status/498136070400143360
  16. Make-up artist Dick Smith who did the make-up for Barnabas when he suddenly aged on the series and in "House of Dark Shadows" has died at age 92. That scene terrified me when I was a kid. Smith also did the make-up for "The Exorcist" and "The Godfather," among many others. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/dick-smith-dead-godfather-makeup-720160?utm_source=twitter http://www.collinsporthistoricalsociety.com/2014/07/dick-smith-dark-shadows-make-up-artist.html
  17. Is this the promo? I don't believe this is Robert Webber. I've seen the actor in other things but can't think of his name.
  18. Don Matheson who played Cameron Faulkner (Lesley's husband) in the 70s has died. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/don-matheson-dead-land-giants-716821
  19. Just read that "Dark Shadows" producer Robert Costello died on May 30. He also produced Ryan's Hope, Another World, and Strange Paradise (and many prime time shows). http://easthamptonstar.com/Obituaries/2014626/Robert-Costello-TV-Producer-93
  20. I'm sorry to hear about Michael Maitland. I remember him well on Dark Shadows. His character was a little terror. I'm just a few years younger and I remember that he was a bit of a teen heart throb and was featured in the teen magazines that were popular at the time.
  21. Yes, Nola was still pregnant in the "early months" clips. She started working for Quint around Sept./Oct. 1981 and had the baby in late Dec. so she wasn't pregnant for very long after she met him. I meant to say in my earlier post that Nola was pregnant when they were in San Francisco, not Hollywood.
  22. Nola had already had her baby when they were in London. She had her around New Year's Eve of 1981. It was while they were in London that we learned about Quint previously being engaged to Helena and about his rivalry with Silas Crocker. I think Nola was pregnant when they were in Hollywood so that would have been earlier. Agree about the inconsistencies especially regarding Mrs. Renfield. I think Gracie just changed her opinions based on what Nola was telling her.
