Does anyone know if she and/or Paul Avila Mayer ever tried to buy back the RH rights?

It's fun seeing her in primetime parts from the 70s - she and Nic Coster were in a Charlie's Angels episode together. That time, she was the victim and he was the victimizer.

Did anyone see the Redd Foxx episode yet? Really not anything was said that hasn't already been said elsewhere.

That was great. I wonder what the folks in Port Chuck would think if they knew that Delia's husband is in fact a mirror image of Sonny's father, Mike.

Loved seeing veteran character actor M. Emmet Walsh as the not-so-beloved Congressman Randall (who is also on the hospital board). It's always fun seeing folks in small roles on TD who would go onto long show biz careers of their own. Paul Michael Glaser was another one - as an orderly and also as half of a dancing couple at Ronnie's Restaurant.

Despite his many years (and Emmy wins) in daytime, it seems that Justin Deas is most loved as SB's Keith. Thanks again for searching for Episode 152. I look forward to seeing the whole episode - in English!!!

I just saw Linda Dano in a Starsky & Hutch rerun from 1977 - playing totally against the type we're used to seeing her - as a woman who physically abuses her little boy. (Her kids, by the way, are played by Meeno Peluce and a pre-FOL Nancy McKeon, and the policewoman assisting S&H on the case was played by Rosalind Cash, years before becoming Mary Mae on GH.) LD was positively scary as the person one would least suspect to be a child abuser - and light years away from Felicia Gallant.

The engagement ring scene shown yesterday was just glorious. Very sweet and romantic - and if the shows of today were doing scenes like this, the soap genre might be taken off the endangered species list!!!

I just wish there were more of her AW scenes available. She was a very charismatic actress and, from everything I've heard and read, a very sweet lady.

Thanks so much for sharing those articles. I'd never seen them before.

Even into the 90s, Ernie Anderson was still doing the voiceovers for the local news here in the Cleveland market (where he was based before going out West). I remember once his unmistakable voice was heard on an episode of Sister, Sister as the twins were watching TV. "Stay tuned for South Central - it's Full House in the hood!" LOL khan, you're right about Sammy Jo/Stacy. I stand corrected!!

I've been watching the reruns of T.J. Hooker on Family Net lately, and marvel how well Sammy Jo did masquerading as good girl Officer Stacy Sheridan.

Yeah, he's still the yellow M&M. I always loved him as Dr. Skoda on L&O.

I can't agree more on what a mess TV One's website is. Good luck trying to figure it out. I've seen math problems that were easier to solve!!

No one did it better than Jane Wyman. Angela is one of those roles I cannot imagine anyone else playing.

There's actually another connection between TD and The Rookies: Gerald S. O'Loughlin, who was the superior officer, had a role on TD in 1965 as Pete Banas, the hospital custodian. In one of the old soap books, there is a photo of him with James Pritchett, Elizabeth Hubbard, Ellen Burstyn and Adam Kennedy.

Patched together from old articles and from some of the episodes that have been rerun, Nick's brother was a mobster who had paid Nick's way through med school. One night, while Nick was working in the emergency room, a shooting victim was brought in - his brother. Nick tried to save him but the brother died on the table. Nick was so distraught that he couldn't perform surgery anymore and that was also one of the main reasons why he moved into research. Over the weekend, the WE Channel aired a L&O rerun from the fall of 1995 which featured Lydia Bruce in her last credited screen role as a judge. It's a very small role, 2-3 lines, but it's still worth catching. She looked pretty much the same, just older, and she sounded just the same. LB's real-life husband, Leon Stevens, also had a role in the episode as a judge. The episode is called "Savages", and WE will be rerunning it again on Tuesday, March 3 at 10 PM EST.

Those are great! Thanks for sharing the link.

Yeah, usually it's the other way around.

Can't wait to see it - thanks!! You could also drop in the names of Robin Wright and Lane Davies - they both chose to leave SB and they were both popular cast members.

That makes sense. Thanks.

That is awesome and definitely foreshadowed his future!! Thank you for sharing the article, Carl.

Was Yellow Rose cancelled due to low ratings or because it was too expensive to produce?

At least AW frequently showed its characters working, even up to the end. I have to give them that.

Susan, Rick Edelstein actually wrote and directed several S&H episodes while he was still working in the capacity of story editor/consultant. I was also surprised to read that he was the writer of a favorite Charlie's Angels episode - "Angels on Ice" from 1977, and directed my all-time favorite episode of Sanford and Son from 1973 - "Pops 'N Pals" (which has an uproarious scene with Fred, Lamont and Julio in a Mexican restaurant that looks a lot like everyone's favorite hangout on TD, Ronnie's Restaurant). He was last seen on screen in 2011 in an episode of TV One's Life After, which profiled S&H's Antonio Fargas. I would love it if someone like Roger Newcomb was able to interview him and/or Rita Lakin. It would be great to hear their memories and insights.
