That's nice to hear about Ted. You jarred my memory regarding the Jameson Parker/Georgeann Johnson pairing. Not only was there the scandal of their age difference, but they lived together without being married!

LOL, that's understandable! But I knew who Barry was first (and had a crush on him) so I don't have that problem!

I remember watching this show but I'm drawing a blank on the plots. I remember my favorite actors on the show were Jobeth Williams, Ted Danson, Audrey Landers, & Barry Jenner. Barry went on to play Evan on Another World, where he plotted with Olive to murder John Randolph!

Same here. Quint & Nola are second only to Doug & Julie from Days for my affections. I'm sure I would have hated it at the time if either Quint or Nola had been killed off. I would have continued watching as long as they stayed. I returned to GL when they did in the 90s, but their characterizations then were even worse than the mid-80s silliness, especially when Nola started being obsessed with Buzz!

The Doctors Discussion Thread
saynotoursoap has a better memory than I do but I am fairly certain that it was Greta Powers who was bitten by the rabbit when she was a child. I thought it was a rabbit that her brother Michael had brought home from the hospital lab. Penny was Althea's daughter. Penny was wrongly accused of murdering Dr. John Morrison (a psychiatrist.

I agree, previously Nola had been quirky and did have a few off-the-wall moments (especially with her friend Gracie)but she had not been slapstick like this. It definitely didn't fit Quint's persona. Still, I think I would have continued to watch them if they had stayed. I gradually started losing interest in the show after they left.

Thanks for posting! I remember some of these stories, and some not. I believe the "strange disease" Ann came down with rendered her unable to have sex! I don't remember Althea being involved with Robert Wilson. Definitely remember John Morrison and Penny going on trial for his murder. He was deliciously evil!

Quint & Nola are my second favorite soap couple ever and I agree that it took away something when Quint's air of mystery was removed. Didn't like it when they moved out of the quirky mansion on Thornway Road and into a house with Henry, Vanessa, & Billy. Nolaerobics was terrible, as was Quint becoming a professor and Quint & Nola taking in that obnoxious boy (I think his name was Jonathan).

We Love Soaps is reporting that James Pritchett has passed away at age 88. I haven't been able to find any more details. Has anyone else read anything?

As The World Turns Discussion Thread
Yes, I've been enjoying your scans! You have posted some of my favorites already, Judith McConnell, Rita McLaughlin, Eileen Fulton, etc. I appreciate anything you put up. I always seemed to favor the Stewart family. Some of my other favorites are James Douglas & Barbara Rodell (Grant & Lisa Coleman), Lisa Brown (Iva Snyder), Renee Props (Ellie Snyder), Kate McNeil (Karen Haines), and Judith Blazer (Ariel Aldrin).

If I'm not mistaken, the woman with James is Connie Wilson (played by Debbie McLeod). She was the aunt of Hayley (played by Dana Delaney). I think James was having an affair with her & Margo at the same time. She wasn't on the show very long & was killed. I think James bore some responsibility for her death through his criminal activity.

I agree that Melinda Fee didn't really seem like Mary Anderson. I might have liked Stanger's Mary better if she was actually supposed to be a bitch but I don't think she was supposed to be at the time, yet came across as one. Karin Wolfe played Mary in the early 70s. She was playing the role when Mary's mother Phyllis accidentally shot her, thinking she was shooting at Julie. I also remember Carla Borelli playing Mary for a short time, I think right before Stanger took over.

Cassie has me drawing a blank! I guess Leslie wasn't a major character, but I always liked her. A coworker of mine remembers seeing her and liking her too. Of course, I was just happy to see Chris get away from Mary Anderson! I couldn't stand her. I don't remember Liz being a villain exactly. She did have an affair with Don Craig while he was married to Marlena. Also, Tony put her up to spying on Doug & Julie. The Dimera's wanted Doug's Place because of the tunnels connecting the club with the Dimeras' previous mansion. I remember something about everyone thinking there were titanium deposits in the tunnel. Doug & Julie were investigating Stefano themselves. I was hoping Jean Bruce Scott would come back too, especially when I thought they were giving Nick a multiple personality disorder. I forgot to mention, Christopher Stone, who replaced Edward Mallory as Bill Horton, also starred in "The Interns" with Stephen Brooks.

Thanks for the new article! Some of the comments from Mrs. Corday about the cuts sound like the comments from her son when he made his cuts. The Leslie James character was one of my favorite pairings for Chris Kositchek. I forget what happened to her. I had a big crush on Stephen Brooks. I had liked him in a show in the 70s called "The Interns." I think he quit show business again when he left Days. He was only in his 50s when he died.

Does anyone remember a storyline in which a patient with a bandaged face is at Hope Memorial (and I think with amnesia) and one of the nurses (possibly MJ) falls in love with him while taking care of him before she even sees his face? And if so, did this turn out to be Billy Aldrich? Thanks.

"Secret Storm" memories.
I saw Lori March (Valerie) during the "The Twilight Zone" marathon that was on the SyFy channel the other week. The episode was called "Third from the Sun." Denise Alexander played her teenage daughter! I'm a fan of both so that was a pleasant surprise!

Wow, I didn't know about this. I don't remember Higgs on Love of Life but I remember him well on the Doctors. His character committed suicide on that show. Thanks for posting.
