Yeah, the show was originally titled Valerie, renamed The Hogan Family in the Sandy Duncan era.

LOL!!!!

Interestingly enough, Eric Peters was played by the late Stanley Kamel, best known to recent audiences as Dr. Kroger on Monk.

That's so sad...may she RIP.

How about this? Ken Howard currently is the President of the Screen Actors Guild.

Not-so-good news: http://www.deadline.com/2014/04/law-order-franchise-ending-svu-nbc-dick-wolf/

I would love love love to see Unsung do a profile on the 1965 classic, A Patch of Blue. To be sure, the entire cast was not black, but it's a timeless movie about race relations. Also, Ivan Dixon played Sidney Poitier's brother in the movie. Another movie that would make a great Unsung episode would be 1964's One Potato, Two Potato.

Denise Alexander is indeed one of the greats. Boo hiss to GH for wasting her.

Maybe he means RIP "Valerie" the show?

Who wrote the shrunken head storyline in the first place? Was that Marland? How did they recon that when the actress came back?

So sad, may she RIP.

Awww - look at them!! They look fantastic!!!

Thanks for posting that article. AW was the soap that introduced me to Lisa Peluso, and I've been a fan of hers ever since.

From your keyboard to TPTB's ears!!!

You have a point. I do know that they ended up stuck with Gilligan and company in one of those GI reunion movies.

Tonight marks the return of William Lewis. I really hope this will be the last of him!!

Wasn't Paul Rauch the EP at that time? If he was, it explains a lot. (Eterna, anyone? LOL)

No, Nick was already long gone before Jeffrey came on the scene. I think Nick was last seen in the summer of 1986, and Jeffrey didn't appear until the very end of the year.

I do recall that Lorenzo Lamas was quite the party boy back then - both on AND offscreen!! I still find it amazing, that of all the people who were on this show and stayed for extended periods of time - the only actor to appear in every single FC episode was Lorenzo Lamas!!!

He was the last guy to play Hart.

LOL!! Good night, John-Boy indeed!!

The season finale (it was only an eight-episode season, I believe) will feature the Harlem Globetrotters. I don't really see how they fit into the realm of Unsung, but since I know very little about them, I'll watch the episode. Should be interesting.

Wow, really? I had no idea she was already battling the horrible disease that early. (She ended up passing away only four days after my grandmother did - heard about it on the radio the day after my grandma's funeral. Very sad times.)

So did you see it yet? What did you think?

I think all of those characters just vanished with no explanation.
