You never know what'll pop up on Youtube. I wonder if this is from 1983? Or maybe during the process of replacing Patty Lotz in 84? It's nice to see some early Ava/ Jack material and her ambition.

Bobby Jindal??
Jindal is a false hope for the GOP. They tried with him once before touting him as a star politician, so they immediately trotted him out for some TV state of the union response and he revealed he has no charisma, no TV presence, a poor ability to give a speech, and a deer in headlights aura.
A democrat can only hope Jindal runs.
It's not like Republicans are going to vote for the opposing candidate (or not vote at all) just because Jindal is a moron.
three words: George Bush Junior

I'm from New Orleans so let me say that if Bobby Jindal is on the ticket for 2016, you better get your emigration papers ready...

very 80's cheesy. I wonder how long he would've stayed if they hadn't fired him

thanks. That sounds like a very roller coaster era for the show

This is so heartbreaking. Her attitude was inspiring when she announced her HIV status.

For me the show ended after season 7 when they got rid of Paige, Jimmy, Marco etc. I still watched season 8 but it wasn't the same. I loved the Alex/ Paige relationship. I loved Spinner becoming an outcast after he reveals that he tricked Rick resulting in Jimmy being shot and paralyzed. He then joined the Christian club and got with Darcy. There was JT/ Liberty. It was so wonderful back then. I don't think I could ever get back into it. A lot of people didn't like seasons 6 and 7 but I thought they were great with Sean and Craig returning.

At 18:07 is outstanding younger actress. I didn't know Noelle Beck was nominated. Loving is such a mystery to me. I think Noelle Beck is a good actress and it seems Trisha was a good heroine. Funny that Noelle and Martha were both nominated.

This is a nice scene between Sophia (in disguise) and Kelly, especially the brief moment when Sophia mentions Channing and her voice cracks.

This channel's been spitting out some 90s AW the in the last few days.

There are a lot of these covers on Facebook. Pretty cool that they have a separate issue for English and Afrikaans. The covers from 2011 looked really clustered but the last several issues look sleek. Much more appealing than soap rags in the US

What I had a problem with in that scene was what everyone had to say about Peter's reaction. They treated him like he was a child, but I thought his reaction itself was natural, not so much the dialogue. Is Jeff the one who did the hit-and-run?
Something about Terry's mother grates me. I feel like I'm supposed to like her but I don't. I think I could like her more depending on what the show has her do.
The highlight so far was in episode 7, when Jeff? and Lori's roommate were in the waiting room and Terry says something like "you are the two who can benefit my daughter the most."

I think the general idea is the show was muddled early on, with all the heavy crime stories. There was also some criticism of the way the religious element was handled, in that it may have been seen as too heavy-handed. Other than the very early stuff, with Peter yelling about there being no God and Lori yelling the same (after she was badly injured in a car accident), I don't think it's been too bad. But there may be a bunch of episodes which are not included in the syndication episodes. Someone told me they skipped a few months of the early episodes, and you can sort of see that with the flashbacks of Lori thinking of happy times with Becky - none of which was shown.
Thanks. I wish they'd started from the very beginning. I thought it was strange that the man giving a prelude to the story. And I also like how Peter and Lori questioned their beliefs. It seems like AL is trying to show that some people struggle with faith. I liked when the parents said that it's easy to be spiritual when things are going good, but the test is when times are hard. I don't know whether that's a common thing that is said, but I thought it was interesting nonetheless. At this point, I want the show to branch out and weave in new characters and stories, but things take awhile in the beginning.

I've always been interested in seeing Another Life. Now that somebody has uploaded early episodes to Youtube, I've started watching. I've seen the first five eps so far. What was it about the early months that didn't work? So far, I'm not hooked but I'm not driven away either. It has potential and surprisingly good production value. I also love the opening. It's like a short version of Sunset Beach's first theme. Around when did the show start getting "good"?
I also think it's fascinating that Roy Windsor helped create it in 1981 when the last soap he created was in 1954 I think. Imagine Agnes making a new soap today

I think she's always been really underrated. I thought she did amazing in all her scenes with Blair, especially when he was in jail. I know a lot of people really liked her work in the DBL storyline. I've watched this scene in particular many times. You can tell she really understood the character. It always baffles me that she was only nominated for an Emmy once..

It says on Richard Steinmetz's IMDB that he played Jeff Hartman on a few episodes of Egoli: Place of Gold. Could there have been an international crossover?? Sry if this has been mentioned

I would have really liked to see that full story. I used to watch the marathon every Sunday but I got frustrated whenever it would jump to some other point in time. I remember being excited because Cherel was about to announce something on her talk show that would sabotage Barker. Then the next episode was something completely different so I never got to see the rest. Cherel is a hilariously wicked character, like Dorian but without as many layers. I think one of the first stories was Cherel killing Barker's son, Duncan. I would have loved to see that.

I would have liked to see more of Farrow. The storyline where Agnes's husband wanted a second wife was hard to watch but I thought it was compelling. Alec's torture was very gruesome. I was shocked that they threatened to rape that man's daughter if he didn't give up the code. I guess they push the limit in South Africa. Too bad the Africa Channel loops episodes because I'd love to see newer eps. Youtube barely has anything.

That's awful. I haven't seen any episodes from after 2008, and I know it went through major changes after that time, but much of the 2007-2008 episodes are fantastic.
I've only seen episodes that have been shown on the Africa Channel but I'm always impressed by stories and some of the acting too. I think Leone was a wonderful character.

It seems like most of the sets were destroyed. I think the miniseries is only temporary.. I hope they can regroup and restore the show.

I was definitely surprised by the raciness! I can't decide what I think of the actress. She is OTT l but I like her confidence. I liked that Ava was taking authority with Jack. I guess they had recently met.
