HWK seemed like he was a great guy i first started watching GH during HWK and AM run way back in 1987. GM did a lot of amazing and wonderful things with GH but she sounds like she was a terror.

From what little i've seen of Gunner i'm not impressed. I Did like the interaction between Barbara, Gunner, Lisa, Whit, Kim, Bob and Miranda. It's so strange to me seeing Bob married to someone besides Kim. I did like the Betsy/Steve/Craig/Diana quad. I loved seeing the passion that MC and JD brought to Tom and Margo. It's really sad that soaps today don't have the money for a location shoot or to use music.

I think Marland would have done a great job with Ariel. Marland could write bad complex girls very well. From what little i've seen of Ariel on you tube i like her. The Actress that played her had a real presences to her plus exotic good looks that really made Ariel stand out.

This is a pretty good episode love Kim's and Betsy's mother and daughter relationship ATWT had a lot of strong female characters during this era. Lisa's pairing with Whit comes across as so odd. If only ATWT had cast a more attractive actor, I can't see Lisa riding that decrepit toothy donkey.This Tom and Margo had a real spark to them something they lost over the years due to bad writing.Ellen seems to have been used more in the early 80's then she ever was by Marland. I liked the flashbacks of Ellen finding John's'' dead body''. I know this was a rocky era for ATWT but the writing was vastly superior to most of today's soaps.

Like Sonny begets children, so are the.......

From what i seen of ATWT on you tube from 1980-85. What worked worked well but what didn't fell flat. I like the Dobson's pitting John Dixon against their new creation uber villain James Stenbeck. John marrying Dee Stewart was a stroke of genius. The Dobson's created two supercouples in Betsy and Steve, Tom and Margo. Many characters came and went their where a few that are fondly remembered like Diana McColl. Mercy Thompson, Karen Haines Dixon, Kirk McColl, Ariel Aldrin and Dusty Donovan, Craig Montgomery, Lucinda and Lilly Walsh. Brad Hollister looked like 1970's porn star he was way older than the Stewart sisters who were all gaga over him. From what i seen of Diana she was a complex fierce rich girl written in shades of grey. I loved what a loving stepmom Lisa was to her step kids. I also loved the friendships between Kirk, Jay, Marcy and Frannie and their concern for Lisa when she was kidnapped by some mobster. Lisa interacted very well with the kids loved her close motherly relationship with Mercy Thompson. ATWT of that era is so different from the Marland era.
