Thanks for filling me in! I had no idea that Jada had been let go from SS or that they had been written Amy out. I wish there wasn't so much false information out there throughout the first three decades of the soaps.

I thought another actress played Amy after Jada left and stayed into 1968. Is this not true or did they just write Paul and Amy out a few months prior?

I didn't realize Belle was introduced around the same time as Paul and Amy's return. I thought she had come on earlier. Thanks for sharing that!

Thanks Paul Raven! 1968 seems like such an exciting time for Secret Storm.

Does anyone know how long Stephanie Braxton played Laurie? I can't find that anywhere. And does anyone know what month Jada Rowland returned as Amy in 1968? I was wondering if she was back in time for the start of the feud with Belle, with the accidental drowning.

Is the guy in the fourth picture Price Trainor or Bert Skelly? Thanks for sharing more of those photos! Their wonderful!

Can anyone fill me in on the Marcy Vincente character?

That Tom Pelphrey movie actually looks really good. And Melissa Archer is styled a lot better on there than she ever was on OLTL.

Thanks for sharing those photos. A lot of them I haven't seen. It's especially nice to see the 1960s and 1970s ones.

Does anyone know if Zina Bethune's Barbara have any big/leading storylines?

Thanks again! You've been a big help!

Wow, I hadn't realized that either though I had made the connection of the two factory names. I wonder if Michael had made the connection when he created Todd or if Irene had anything to do with the naming of it though she had been dead for years by then.

Wow, I hadn't realized that either though I had made the connection.

Wow! Thanks saynotoursoap, as always. There was so much about that I hadn't even known about. I loved how they tied it into the earlier story of Herb loving Van. Do you know the timeframe of the storyline?

Thank you both so much for that insight and information. Is there anywhere online that has detailed information about the show and particularly, Vanessa? I can't seem to find anything in-depth about past storylines. Can anyone fill me in on the Nell Saltzman story? I know she was having an affair with Jason and dressed in a wig to frame Van, but what was her motive and how did the story conclude?

I don't think she did. I was always waiting on someone to mention him, but I don't think it ever happened. I would've loved to see him return though and be a full-time rival for Clint.

I was surprised by some of the comments in the 1990 review. I certainly agree it was probably one of the worst years of the show though. I will always love Eterna, Buchanan City, etc. though. I was stunned when they considered the casting of Fiona Hutchinson a miss though, but I love her and Gabrielle, so maybe I'm biased. I never thought Michael Palance was all that popular, so didn't expect him to be considered a hit. And Karen Witter was never my personal ideal Andrea Evans replacement.

Christine was playing Viki all throughout that year-long story with Ted Clayton and all then. Thanks for posting those other reviews as well, I can't wait to read them!

That was an extremely harsh, yet well written review. I consider it harsh mainly because a lot of the stuff I consider gold compared to the daytime of today. Id love to have seen the same writer review the show was it was in its final years. Was Christine or Erika playing Viki during the Masquerade Ball? I like Christina Jones, but she is Pamela to me and I can't enjoy someone outside of Gillian or Erika as Viki. That was. A LOT to happen throughout the ball, but over a three week period, I'd imagine that to play out nicely and keep the momentum going.

Thanks so much for posting that review, I love stuff like that. I haven't read it, but I'm extremely surprised that put down the Clint and Viki pairing.

I remember she did a Where Are they Now with SOD in 2009 and said she was so happy and was willing to come back. I can't believe they would run such a serious story as that, with no verification or anything. Did they ever refute their claims?

Those look really nice, thanks for sharing. She mustve had the longest disappearance on a soap.

I know Tina and I think Viki had on fur coats in a scene that around sometime during Eterna. They were at Viki's cabin which had been ransacked by a gold hunter. Itso n YouTube somewhere.

I was thinking the same thing. Its sad how rare that is in daytime when their supposed to reflect the real world.

Thanks! Tina and Gabrielle are dynamite to me, I can't help but wonder how the different the show would've been if Fiona and Andrea had never had to leave. I don't know much about Max and Luna (I prefer he and Gabrielle as well) but was it because of her he moved to NC?
