Melvin's future "Archie Bunker's Place" co star also appeared on this serial as Joey Gordon.

I looked through a lot of the old Jon Michael Reed articles available on the google archive newspaper site, and was looking for the casting in LoL's final years, the Bambi Brewster debacle of a story. Has anyone found any casting notices for Eloise Alberini, Rev. Brewster's crazy follower? I've asked this befor, but here are some others:"Big" Al Barton, Reverend Richard Brewster, Reverend Harding, Leonia Baxter, Cissy[Casey]Muldoon, reporter, Arthur, Barbara, and Kathleen Brewster, Tran Chang[child of Kim Soo Li and Tony Alphonso], Papa Gaspero, Mildred Russell, Frankie Sills, Solly Sullivan[prison guard, saved by Ben], and Paul Smith[smithers?] reporter?

In reading some old magazines, a couple of names I haven't seen in cast lists are: Sally Cartwright [Patricia Wheel], Cathy Smith[Mallory Jones] Pam Wagner[ Lisa Bentzen], and Merlin [Hector Mercado]. There was also a newspaper editor played Frank Thomas, Sr.

Does anyone know anything about the character Laura, the storm volunteer that kidnapped Maggie for getting her kicked out of a nursing program?

Was she played by an actress that has done other shows?

I thought Patricia Healey was great as Tammy, and TC just a filler, but she was fantastic on Y&R and Days.

No one needs irritating Elisabeth Hasselback back on this show. I danced a jig when her gluten free whining *ss was fired, and I couldn't have been alone. If anyone made the show all about herself it was EH. She literally had nothing to contribute except her political views, which we all knew before she opened her mouth, ad nauseum.

Tamara Clatterbuck[Ex-Alice Johnson Fann Y&R] on The Bridge[FX] tonight.

Just picture Killer Griller Miller smirking his way through the scene. Yep, that's what we have to look forward to........Grins and giggles!

Patricia Bruder in Linda Dano preview.

It's been years since I've seen those! One of the best Abby stories!

The closest to Nikki's mother we ever saw was the angel, played by Missy Yager in Nikki's dream a few years ago.

Martin Vidnovic[Cord Tourneur] appeared on AW in 2 roles: a 4 episode stint in 76 as Chuck Peterson and 96 as Gov.Charles Drake. I believe he appeared on GL as well, but I'd have to look that up in my cast lists.

Yeah, Thanx so much.

Never seen Sweeney or Missy.

Creepy *ss Mel and that Doreen is such the B*tch!

ITA abouT the great conversation scene w/ Steve and Maggie.

Thoughts from episodes 8564&8565:

Brett CREEPER Hamilton III

Victor Kiriakis yelling at a cat! Love that Bomber! and that southern accent

Chase mooning over Alec....O_O

You can just see the star quality in MA.

God Da** Michael Corbett was f'n hawt! I wonder how many male co-stars he hooked up with!

She was married to Terry O'Sullivan[Arthur Tate, SFT] in the 50's.

She was on EoN in 58 0r 59.

Type Palmolive commercial Madge and they have several commercials.

PB looks really good in that scene at the end. He hasn't changed that much in 24 years. He's aged well. He actually looks better than he did on AMC!

I still have about 7 [maybe 9] more to go, but some observations

Never cared for the Adair character, either actress.

I didn't like Justine when I first saw LS in the 80s, but after enjoying her on Y&R,[way too briefly] I'm actually enjoying her this time around.\

Terri Eoff is much better here than her Pilar Casals on AMC. Ditto for Jo Henderson as Kate McCleary. Her scene w/Martin was well written. Does anyone know of her other roles? I've read she was on GL among others.

Why did Maree Cheatham leave? Louise Schaffer was much better[and will always be] Rae Woodard to me. She's a much harsher character under Schaffer.

Lt. Marion Bowman[Harris Laskaway] sounds so much like Larry Haines, I thought he was Stu when I was folding laundry! He would have been a good recast Tom Bergman!

Never ever cared for the Cord Tourneur character, but I wish they kept Victoria around, I liked that actress.

And, finally, Sherry Mathis was amazing, and was taken from this world far too soon. Her Liza, there are no words.....

For many years I have seen old write-ups stating that Jan Miner[Palmolive's Madge the Manicurist] appeared on EON. In reading an old Radio TV Mirror from 1959, I found out that her character's name was Carol Rich. I believe Mrs. Rich was a neighbor to the Karrs. I read about the neighbors in the 1950s EON synopses on the EON Homepage. Ms. Miner appeared in numerous radio soaps. Just a tidbit I wanted to share! The article also says that her co-star was an actor named Skip Homeier. If he played her husband, that character's name was Lee Rich.

Val was as addicted to redecorating as JVA is addicted to plastic surgery!

Marian Woods also appeared on OLTL as Ophelia Gamble, district attorney. I think it was 1985 or 86.

Not to mention a few new shows!

Not to mention stealing their bartender Kevin MacGuiness and renaming him Big Bigelowe![Malachy McCourt]

The security man, Sam Adams, looks familiar. Is that Richard Council , temp Hal Munson and Ari Triandos ATWT, PI Parker and Pete Walker, LOV, and Michael Blake, LOL? I think it is, anyone out there know?

NBA and Carl, thanks for posting these awesome episodes. The cast at this time was great! Such a treat to watch!

On OLTL he was dirty detective Al Lucas. Porter portrayed Brendan Welles on GH, a relative[?Brother] of Det. Samantha Welles, Frisco's PCPD partner.

Reed was the last Lloyd Kendall.
