  1. I say she got a lot of hate mail. Some people can't separate between fact and fiction. Jami Lyn Bauer who played Lorie Brooks on Y&R talked about being screamed at in traffic while her children were with her in the car and them being traumatized by the incident.
  2. I was watching a Wheel Of Fortune rerun on GSN from a few of years ago (maybe 13/14) and recognized Suzy Cote from GL as one of the contestants. She was on with her husband and using her married name.
  3. After Althea gave him a tongue lashing, I believe he is seeing the light. He asked for Carolee's forgiveness and wants to save their marriage. It will be funny if Mona is trapped in that marriage to Winston Croft for nothing. I also hope he lets it slip that Mona thinks Carolee is appalling and Steve flies into the old bag.
  4. I saw his debut too. Mona makes me sick the way she was running Carolee down to him and Steve. Steve is a brain dead moron who is treating Carolee like crap. I laughed when she put him in his place at the hospital about his cocktails with Mona and her having to cookout with Billy alone. Ann seems nice at this point, but I know she will take a turn for the worse.
  5. I was reading some TV trivia and was surprised to see that Donna Mills auditioned and really wanted the role of Julie Kotter on Welcome Back Kotter. Another actress that really wanted the role and did an audition was Farrah Fawcett (then Majors). Supposedly you can view their tapes at Paley.
  6. LOL......Yes. Kevin Cronin of REO Speedwagon also had a big fro.
  7. Thanks. I guess his voice sounds like someone from commercials or cartoons.
  8. I agree. Thomas Connolly looks and sounds familiar for some reason. He may have done voice overs or acted in commercials. I tried Google but came up with nothing on him.
  9. Thanks for the heads up. I watch the show daily along with Match Game, Card Sharks, Press Your Luck and Wheel Of Fortune. I miss seeing Sale Of The Century.
  10. I wonder what happened to the Cliff DeSales character played by Thomas Connolly ? He is no longer being shown and only mentioned, but someone posted on youtube that the role will be taken over by another actor.
  11. Thanks for posting the 1981/82 shows. It's weird to look how the show evolved while still watching 1973 shows on youtube. I see Mona is still as prickly as ever. It's funny to see Jada's version of Carolee talking disparagingly about Matt when Carolee Campbells version saw him as a saint. Liz was pretty much turning into Lucinda at this point. I read that NBC hated Alec Baldwin and wanted him gone. I guess they had ESP about how he would turn out.
  12. Glad to see you posting again. I agree. The show is being forgotten in time. They also need to air it on one of the retro channels to get new generations of viewers. There is a poster on youtube called vcrcooking or something like that, who has posted episodes from later seasons. John Rubinstein who plays Jeff looks like singer Leo Sayer, especially in the pilot.....LOL
  13. My Mom watched Y&R from 1973-2000. I watched Y&R about 1981-2000 on a regular basis.
  14. The episode where Jennifer discover she has breast cancer aired in 1975. Three episodes of that story line where on youtube at one time. I would love to see those 1970's episodes listed.
  15. We know that the drunk actress she is speaking about is Jeanne. That pic of her at 17 looks more like it was taken in the late 70's/early 80's. She would have been 17 in 1966 and that doesn't look 1960's.
  16. It seems Paul Carr mostly played heavies. There are few roles I have seen where he's the good guy. I know he will appear on The Doctors as a dastardly Doc around 1976 if we get to see them that far. He also originated the role of Bill Horton on Days and had roles on Y&R and Dallas. How long was he in the role of Peter ?
  17. I would love to see them too. I agree about Brooke Bundy. She was a popular guest star on a lot of 60's.70's TV, but what bits of her Diana I have seen, she overacted the part. I was noticing how Craig Huebing reminded me a bit of actor Paul Carr and come to find out Paul briefly originated the role of Peter in 1969 before Craig took over. Paul appears to have played many short term roles on soaps. He was a popular guest actor on may series and films, I guess he couldn't commit long term to a soap.
  18. I read that Craig Huebing died pretty much a recluse. In the photos of I have seen of Valerie Starrett she reminds me a bit of Marla Adams. Marla Adams
  19. I saw a clip on youtube from a few years ago where the cast was being interviewed at Paley. Roberta stood up in the audience and asked MTS why doesn't Nikki call her sister. MTS was surprised and glad to see her. So I assume they might be friendly again. Roberta looks a bit different from her Y&R days. If she would return to the show that would be great, if not they could do a recast. I suggest someone like Lindsay Wagner (she's in my profile pic with Lee Majors) who is an excellent dramatic actress and has that smokey/husky voice like Roberta.
  20. Casey needs to be brought back. If Roberta Leighton isn't interested or if TPTB insist on a recast, I could see Lindsay Wagner in the role.
  21. LOL....Yes, Bionic Woman and Six Mill scream 1970's. Your comment on Jaime looking like she's going to macrame class is hysterical. In one episode she is wearing bell bottom jeans, and platform sandals with black socks. In the same episode Oscar Goldman was about 10 years ahead with some of his fashion choices like the preppy pastel color sweaters, straight slim pants and loafers without socks. CLC would have been great as a WW rival on the series. She had an exotic look. Lee Majors aged rapidly by the time SMDM ended. He and Farrah were having problems by that time too.
  22. LOL at your Wonder Woman discussion, I watched the show as a kid too. Lyle was duller than watching paint dry. As time went on Carol Burnett used him less and less in skits after the heart throb novelty wore off. He got upset and quit her show and I don't think they tried to stop him. Remember that TV movie they did with Cathy Lee Crosby as a blonde Wonder Woman ? That was weird, She had a female Evel Knievel costume on and had weird scenes of a donkey in a shower, a snake drinking milk and melted rainbow ice cream looking glop melting out of the walls. People still trash that movie to this day.
  23. I would love to see a complete color episode from the late 60's or early 70's. Especially with Marla Adams as Belle.
  24. Starting at the 11:54 for mark are promos of The Edge Of Night, Search For Tomorrow and at 12:44 a promo of Secret Storm that I don't think I have seen before.
