I was 13 at the time, and remember a bit. Peter didn't live at the Love Estate until after he became bitter...after the mess with Sally,. He was originally played as a good guy by John Hutton, but then they chose to make him darker. I found a bunch of 80s Digests from later in 1983[May on], so I'll read up tomorrow and post some pertinent info.

I must have missed the post. Thanks for the info. Carolee was so adorable in those [and all of her scenes].

ALL: Temporary Replacements
That's what I figured, it must have been a misprint I copied out of some old book or magazine. I don't remember where I found it, but wanted to ask before I included it in the full cast list I've been working on. Thanks PR! Excellent pictures in the cancelled soaps section!

Who was the doctor that hit on Carolee the other day? The actor looked familiar fro daytime. Usually they credit the actors with that many lines. Their scenes were adorable as Carolee went through so much haranguing to get the night off! Dr. All Rich seems to be making headway with Wet blanket Werner, I thought I almost saw that smile she reserves for Matt when he gave her that book! Penny and her diary, talking to Liz... Hell raiser in the making. She reminds me of SD's Betsy on ATWT.... Lydia has won me over, but I'll miss Bethel's eye rolls and dirty looks at WBW! Is it just me or does Dr. Powers always have that pipe in his mouth? Best show of 1968 2014 by far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ALL: Temporary Replacements
Does anyone know if Linda Dano temped on GH in the early 60s as Peggy Mercer? I have it in a list of casting notes, and it just doesn't sound right.

Back to The View... I like All four, they work well in adversarial as well as friendly situations. Anything is better than listening to that annoying twit Elisabeth try to discuss ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guiding Light Discussion Thread
I read that [a looong time ago in some soap magazine]. I liked her on OLTL better than her replacement there Julianne Johnson I think her name was. I've only seen a little of her as Morgan from youtube, I started watching GL around 83, so I missed her back then. I remember Jennifer Cooke from V:the Series, and she didn't make much of an impression on me, either.

I was young and watching around that time, and she just doesn't look familiar from OLTL to me. Of course, CJ as Vicky is tough to get used to. I remember her better as Pamela, Christina on Rituals, and Catsy on RH. None of those scream Vicky to me! I wish I was watching AW when she was Janice, but I didn't start watching AW til 83. Jones was quite the soap hopper in those days, I wonder if she ever appeared on ATWT. Anyway, I got sidetracked...she [with Brad] looks familiar, but not from OLTL.

OOps...my bad I was typing and not thinking! Frau Werner had better watch her step, Dr. All Rich has her number and has her in his sites!

I guess not getting up at 5am everyday is working for her.

I love the camaraderie between the fab four[Maggie, Matt, Althea and Nick]. You can just tell they enjoyed working together. Herr Werner needs to take a chill pill....she needs to take the stick out of her ............... Steve the cad sure did fall for the Ice Princess? Eh? Liz , get yourself a clue...time to check into another hotel.....

Nice to see Barbara today!

Knots Landing
Could anyone truly replace Laura? I loved her character's attitude, and she was easily one of the best actors ever in this cast. She and Sumner were a match made in well, wherever...I loved Paige, too, but to me Laura was irreplaceable! I wish she was mentioned in the finale,[maybe she was but it's been years since I last watched it]. I wondered if anyone else liked her as much as I do. My friends couldn't stand her when we watched it.

Flamingo Road
Rita Lakin's Flamingo Road is worth watching. I've only had time for an episode or two a week, but I am truly enjoying the show. Howard Duff, Stella Stevens, Mark Harmon, Morgan Fairchild...what more could a soap fan want? I'm only up to episode 4[just finished], but I didn't expect it to be this entertaining. There aren't more than 30 or so episodes, and I strongly recommend 80s primetime soap fans to give it a shot.

I have four actors playing Lionel Dalton over the years: Earle Hyman of the Cosby Show Roscoe Lee Browne of Soap[briefly] James Moody Palmer Deane I don't know who played Amy's ex husband. It was my freshman year at college in 89, and I had all afternoon classes my first trimester, so I had to rely on magazines to know what was going on. As for Jessica,TT was fantastic, and I was surprised she went back after the recast. She had some terrible years there though.

One thing that Marland did was build large families for his characters. Roy's family: Detective Roy Franklin...Count Stovall Leonard Franklin...Charles Dumas and Mel Winkler...father Sarah __Franklin...Novella Nelson...mother...later Judge Fitzwater on OLTL Leonard Franklin, Jr. ...Never Seen...shot by a cop...brother Nella Franklin...Tiffani Caesar,85-86...Kasi Lemmons 86-89...Victoria Rowell...88. I think she was a sub for a few weeks Amy___ Phillips Franklin... Karen Evans Kandel ...abused by her first husband Lloyd, she married Roy shortly before he left. Frank... Nella's boyfriend shot by Roy... Roy's father didn't speak to him because it reminded him of Junior. Not sure if he was shown or just talked about. Lloyd Phillips...Amy's abusive husband, almost killed her...played by?????????? The Griffen family was fairly large as well. Say what you want about Marland, one of my favorite writers, but he was colorblind whe it came to talent! I know they were mostly recurring, but the families fleshed out Roy and Jessica.

I think he was Marcello Salta when he "knocked up" " A common Prostitute like Katrina Karrr!"[Karen Wolek]... All kidding aside, I look forward to seeing the movie. I loved Stephen as Cass Winthrop. Wish he could pop up on Days as Julie's brother for a visit! Congratulations to them for their son joining the family business!
