No, not this particular episode. I was pretty young and was honing my vcr skills at the time lol. I have of course seen the edits of this a million times though. I think this is a great montage, but if I was ranking mob related montages I would have Clink Boom and Amazing Grace ahead of it.

I am pretty sure it's May 12, 1995 and @DeliaIrisFan is referring to the Lullaby Massacre where Luke/Laura's house, Luke's club, and Sonny's apartment get shot up while Laura is singing a lullaby to baby Lulu. That channel has the full episode, which I have never seen and is a rare gem, but the actual ending montage is pretty famous because Brenda gets shot at in the shower and Stone gets shot leading him to tell Robin he has AIDS and has been circulating around for years.

Well, if it makes you feel any better the group and website has been gone for years and years now. I think the entire messageboard and website were deleted by the owner. I don't think you can find much, if any of it, on the web anymore. Anyway, it makes us talking about Finola Hughes's hair and protein intake seem like small potatoes.😂

Their peak insanity was during the Sexis stuff. I feel like the whole group fell apart not long after because the crazy started showing. The whole argument about VM and her son was hoping he got ill or didn't react well to Vanessa's schedule so she would leave. The group did have some insider info and spoilers for awhile there though. It's funny to think Sonny/Carly had such a passionate fanbase back then and the characters are still around now and everyone's basically whatever about the pairing lol.

I personally preferred SM as Trina, but I don't think TA is doing a bad job. SM wasn't give a ton to do so I am not sure she could have handled the emotional or romantic material Trina has since gotten. I just thought SM and NAC had really great chemistry. Anyhow, I thought TA was okay yesterday as well. A little rough, but it didn't take me out of the scenes. They should go for Trina/Dex lol. @VeeThe No Ordinary Love Carly/Sonny fans give me nightmares still. What a nutty fanbase and for awhile they had inside information too. I remember the Kristina stuff, but I also remember them wishing harm to NLG and her daughter and hoping VM's son would get ill so Vanessa would leave the show.

I know I am going to regret even responding, but I have longer hair than Finola and it's probably similar thickness/texture. I have never had extensions. People just have different types of hair and texture. You can say you have talked to a million hairdressers, but her hair looks real to me. It would be thicker if she had extensions. Unless we physically examine FH's head we don't know. And if you are suggesting Finola should wear her hair up because of age and the fact you don't think she eats enough protein is just strange.

I think LW has fabulous hair. It's curly and thick and the show straightens it. That's why there is so much. LLC/Olivia also has a great head of thick hair. Laura and Lucy's hair has never bothered me, but Anna's does look a bit flat and stringy sometimes-not always. I wouldn't hate if she cut it. I think it's more of a texture thing than an age thing for me. KMC/Robin's hair would look like that as well sometimes near the end of her run. I personally like Tracy's hair. I think the grey and the up dos she has look distinguished and unique. It works for Tracy, IMO. As far as KS/Maxie, I have honestly been down that road too many times and I think everyone knows my thoughts by now.

You have a good point about changing the show. I think I am more frustrated the show has managed to screw it up so bad thus far. I really don't care about Lois/Olivia and Lois supporting Brook Lynn in her snooze worthy wedding nonsense. Of course at least we have hope things will change. I like Blaze. I like her and Kristina. I think the story has some potential. Of course, if she left I wouldn't miss her or anything, but I think the character and actress are pleasant enough.

It's clear to me that GH just jumped to get Rena with no plan. Rena/Wally are adamant on Ned/Lois not reuniting and that's pretty much the story Lois/Ned fans have been waiting for all this time. So this means you have to a solid idea for Lois outside what was her main story previously. I don't have a problem with her moving on from Ned, but I don't know who on the current canvas I would pair her with. I think there is some way to incorporate her career and move Brook Lynn out of Deception and the two of them could build something in PC together with that with Blaze maybe? Hopefully, the new writers will figure it out. I honestly love Rena/Lois, but I am not sure she actually fits on the current show.

Yeah, the two Pierce's on the same network and similar time period align with that. So I think Bradley White played the part initially then Youngblood may have been the recast briefly and we moved on to Tuc Watkins. Wiki says Dorman had ties with Damian as well and I don't recall that at all.

I think you are right. I just briefly glanced at the dates for each actor and I don't know enough about any of them besides Tuc to accurately make a judgment lol. Looking at pictures on the internet I can find it does seem to be White. Looking at Fitzpatrick again, I don't remember him at all as Dorman. It's listed on IMBD, but not his wiki and I am wondering if his role as Pierce on AMC got conflated into Pierce on GH, which were roughly in the same time period.

Yes! This was the outfit I was talking about. It was not even a dress it was like a leather jacket on top of a leather top on top of leather pants. It was a lot lol. Lois has always had a unique style, but she was more edgy and bold. This just looked cheap. And what might have worked in 1995 when you were 25 does not work 30 years later especially considering all she was doing was talking to Chase's boring dad at a bar.

There were 4 actors to play Dorman I believe. The first two you mentioned and Bradley White and obviously Tuc Watkins. I am sure Dr. Dorman had more scenes in 1994-95, but I don't know how easily available they are. There appears to be quite a bit of the Monica/Dorman story online, but not a lot of the early Dorman. Sonny/Brenda seem to have the most complete library of clips for that time period although I know there used to be some Robin/Stone specific playlists he might pop up in.

They were obviously the same Dr. Dorman, but the awful dr. to Stone didn't exactly have much correlation to what Dorman became, if that makes sense. This Dorman was a jerk, but the Dorman that had an affair with Monica, dealt drugs, sued Monica, and ended up dead was about 100x more off the rails than the guy that didn't want to do the biopsy on Stone in the above clip. The actor above appears to be Jim Fitzpatrick.

Dr. Dorman debuted in 1994, but I think the stuff with Stone happened in summer of 1995. I have seen it in Sonny/Brenda edits so I know it still exists on you tube. It was after Stone's diagnosis, but Dorman's main story at the time was refusing to treat Stone because it was a hopeless case. He was very recurring. I think the character left and then came back but was recast at least once or twice before Tuc Watkins took over. ETA-here's the scene I remember most. Tony actually fires him. It aired late Oct 95
