No, @Khan, not you. Never you. I have the thread-ruiner on ignore but somehow that still doesn't seem to help. Are the mods asleep?

True, and what if they hadn't been able to get Barbara Bel Geddes back? Donna Reed passed on in early 1986, and I doubt they would wanted to recast again. Larry Harman may have been the star of the show, but the Ewing parents proved to be irreplaceable.

The original Law & Order.

Agreed! Why "fix" something that isn't broken?

OK, that all makes sense then. The show never had the kind of ratings again pre-Moldavia, did they?

I give her and the others all the credit in the world for standing up to that creep. Just too bad it was them and not him to be kicked out.

I think they were on the verge of SORASing Brandon when the show was cancelled. He had been sent off to school out of town a couple of months before the series finale. Agreed that the show never quite seemed to find the right balance in the Santana/Brandon parent/child dynamic.

Because they have no consciences.

Great, you've ruined this thread like all the others. Thanks a lot.

It was the most pointless firing in my history of soap watching. Even sadder was that CG never landed another soap, despite auditioning for several.

My mom and I were having a discussion this afternoon on this subject. We think these rich and/or famous should be subject to normal people house arrest. They would be sentenced to an abode in non-glamorous parts of the USA, the abode would be less than 11,000 feet, no maids, nannies or personal chefs, and they would live with a family full of extremely active kids and/or pets. The criminal would cook, clean and babysit for the frazzled parents. In short - I sentence Lori Loughlin to a term at my sister's house in the suburbs of Cleveland!!! Case closed. 😉😂

From what I could find out, Carrington Garland was born 1/27/1964 and Robin Wright was born 4/8/1966.

Patricia Hayling (now Patricia Hayling Price), seen in Retro TV's rerun cycle on The Doctors as Bettina Chambers (beginning in December 1978), went from the show business world to the corporate business world. She worked for IBM before starting her own talent development and consulting firm. https://liveworkstrategize.com/about-us/

Susannah. Was she born on AW or Somerset?

Ouch. 😂

See, that would have made sense - hence why they recast a European princess with an American Valley Girl!! 😝

Not to mention why DAYS' Don Craig never returned after mailing that letter. Then you have the original forgotten kid, AMC's Bobby Martin.

It's not as that's never happened before on soaps. 😉😂

I just saw an episode from Season 7 called "The Rig", which featured Philip English (currently airing in Retro TV's rerun cycle of The Doctors) as a foreman in an offshore oil rig in Australia. Blake, Alexis and Ben were there to check it out when the rig exploded. The episode also featured Karen Cellini as Amanda. It bears repeating...what were they thinking? They should have just written Amanda out after Catherine Oxenberg left. She took me right out of her scenes.

You do incredible work. Your researching skills are great. Have you ever thought of writing a book on this topic?

AW debuted in 1964. Ada and Rachel (CF and RS) came on in 1967.
