    It was obvious that two plus one equaled three and not two. Not sure if he couldn't find her, he didn't ask her or she declined.

    The interview with Terri Garber and Jennifer Landon is pretty good. There is a point where Alan wants to take the chat one direction but Jennifer steps in and goes another direction. 

    Terri talks about working with CZP too. Her friendships with other actors who were on Texas with her. They talk about Dynasty too. I have a feeling she didn't enjoy her time on it.

    Close to the end of the interview they realize that both still are in NY either full time or part time. In Jen case due to her taping FBI show and with excitement decide to met up and Alan steps in saying he's still in the NY area and wants to meet up in person with them. Both ladies totally ignore him.😂

    The part where Jennifer and Terri ignore Alan is so funny.🤣

    Amongst the many reasons that I am surprised Mac Scorpio lasted so long is because he served as the catalyst for Glory Monty's 1991 revamp of GH

    Mac was introduced the same week as Bill Eckart, his sister Jenny, mother Angela, father Frank, and (a personal favorite) his cousin Joey.  The revamp was considered a creative and ratings failure, so within months most of those introduced were fired.  Frank died in an earthquake (the type that happen too frequently for an east coast port o' call), Angela moved and sold the bakery (which was never going to be the new Kelly's), and Joey just disappeared.  By the end of Monty's second tenure in 1993 they were all gone except Mac.  So, it is a true surprise that he lasted beyond that infamous stage in GH history.

    Fred didn't die in that dopey earthquake. Fred died sitting in a chair in his home of a heart attack, Felica was paralyzed for 2 mins. Due the earthquake. Angela appeared from time to time. After the character was dropped. To visit Jenny, Bill and Sly. Joey who dated bland Nurse Sheila. Did disappear early on. I think he was the first member of the family to go.

    She had proposed to ABC a new soap opera centering on a blue collar family. When they passed on the new series, they rehired her on GH, and she implemented some of the ideas for her new series there. I thought Joe Hardy had done a decent job with the show - certainly better than Wes Kenney. I thought getting rid of Katherine - one of GH’s freshest faces in years- to push Robert and Anna back together was a huge mistake.

    I liked Katherine as well. If i remember correctly Katie Lady was the first to go. Out of nowhere breaking up with Robert. And leaving PC around late November.

    The weirdest was Bobbi, who had reverted to her original form during the baby scheming, was suspended from the hospital due to her involvement with an evil doctor.  Then, one the first day of the revamp she was inexplicably back at the nurse's desk in time to see Bill Eckhart in his hospital bed.

    And Anna had been dating a creepy member of the Jerome family, but suddenly started playing S&M sex games with Robert and tying him to columns. 

    It was as if there was time shift but nobody told the audience...

    Robert and Anna started acting very obnoxiously towards each other.  Edge was decapitated by the bootleggers. His head was found in a dumpster.

    Not to go too far afield from the topic at hand, but it remarkable how the initial setup for Port Charles was similar to the 1991 Monty revamp.  Angela was played by Carol Lawrence, a long time actress, much like Mary Scanlon played by Pat Crowley.  The Eckhart Bakery tried to be the new hangout, much like The Recovery Room on PC.  And Jenny lived with many of her nurse friends in a shared apartment, much like the resident med students of PC.

    Neither version was popular and both required a reworking of the initial concept.

    I hated Monty's second run. I started watching GL full time. GH wasn't in bad shape. I will never understand the need for a massive overhaul. Out nowhere Anna and Robert are hastily and clumsily back together. The battle over baby Lucas aborted. The only good about that was Cheryl snapping out of her Robert obsession. Dawn foolishly killed off. Dawn vs Nikki would've been interesting. Most of the new characters were nothing burgers.  Like original recipe  Dominique or Nurse Shelia.  It was all way too much too soon.  GH was very luck that Wendy Riche repaired GH.
