Thank you all for enlightening me on the Danny/Michelle beginning, and who played what. Who played Mick Santos?

Now, THAT would have been awesome. Knowing how fun he was playing the attraction angle as Lionel on SB with Augusta and Sophia, NC, EF and PB would have knocked it out of the park. Speaking of NC and his second ATWT character, how were Eduardo and Damian related?

Thank you so much for posting that!! I have never seen this article before.

OK, thanks!! Who else did the character of Robbie interact with?

Was he the one played by Willie Aames? I didn't know he was with Jody. How long was he on the show?

Didn't also teach and/or coach at a high school in STL?

Not a fan of the kissing cousins, I take it? Was Rebecca Budig already off GL by the time Paul Anthony Stewart came on? I know she didn't play any of the Danny/Michelle romance, but did any of their time of GL overlap?

OK, thanks!!

Not only that, but they were stepsiblings then - which could have added another set of complexities.

Glad to hear he is doing well. While he was seriously miscast as Nikolas Cassadine, it seems this Supernatural role might just be the right role for him. We'll have to wait and see what happens. God bless him.

Yes, you're right. I had forgotten that Joseph Mascolo and Thaao Penghlis had also appeared on SB. Thanks for the reminder! You're welcome!

What did they snipe about? Why did they annoy each other so much?

That's what I took from it, too. But then the show copped out by having the baby killed instead of showing the consequences and sacrifices of an unwed teenage mother. Erin Torpey (Jessica) and Jason-Shane Scott (Will) did a good job; I would have liked to see their baby story play out in a better way.

According to her wikipedia page (take it with a grain of salt), Katherine Glass left OLTL in 1978 just as it was expanding to an hour, and felt that The Doctors, at half an hour, would give her more time to spend with her husband and newly adopted baby.

From all the interviews I've read with her, Gina Gallego seems like such a sweetheart, but I never cared for her version of Santana - way too whiny, clingy and sniveling to me. Ava Lazar's take had fire, backbone and sass. It would have been great to see her and Marcy Walker's Eden butting heads.

See, that would have made too much sense.

Would you longtime GL viewers call Danny and Michelle (when she was played by Bethany Joy/Joie Lenz) the show's last real supercouple?

Scroll down on this page, and it confirms that Kathleen King (Gretchen) is indeed the lady in the above photo: http://www.jason47.com/days/castphotos2.html

Per imdb, the actress is Kathleen King, who was on DAYS from 1981-83.

In the 1981 cast photo from the book Soap World, Charles Bateman is in the cast photo, along with the man who would replace him as SB's CC Capwell, Jed Allan. I guess that's where they met, because according to some other soap book I read, the two men were golf buddies at the time SB began, or at least when CB began on that show.

Actually, the GMA Mystic Pizza reunion was a lot more recent than I thought - October 2013!! Anyway, here is the clip. The movie also featured another who got his start on soaps, Adam Storke (Andrew Ryder, SFT). Anyway, Billy still looks great!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xpuf6BPqI7g

Gotta love those 70s fashions. LOL

Yup, and I spy two future SB cast members among the group - Jed Allan and Lane Davies!!!

I would love to know whatever happened to Stacey Baldwin, who originated the role of Laura Vining (as the character was then known). She leaves, and then the next girl to play the part goes on to megastardom. I was just always curious about the whole thing, though honestly, I cannot imagine anyone else as Laura but Genie Francis.

The Hallmark Channel has the rights to The Doctors episodes (have no idea what year the episodes start), but have sat on them for years. Boo hiss!!!!
