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.

Along those same lines, I was told by a friend, "Never watch Wedding Crashers with your dad. Just don't do it!!" LOL

Thank you, Khan. Was that the last hurrah for Robert Foxworth's Chase? Was it his choice to leave the show? Not sure if you all know this, but Abby Dalton (Julia) played Barney Miller's wife in the original 1974 pilot. It is included in the complete series boxset of Barney Miller. I think she brought a softness and a warmth that I found lacking in the role once Barbara Barrie took over when the show went to series. Also in the pilot was Anne Wyndham, as the Millers' daughter, who would move East the next year to start a three-year turn on SFT as Amy.

OK, you got me there. Like I said, I was still in the single digits at that time, so I didn't have a clue about ratings and lead-ins and whatnot. LOL Not to get too far off-topic, but didn't the real slide begin for Dukes after John Schneider and Tom Wopat left due to that royalties dispute and it never regained its momentum, even after they came back? Even to this day, the Coy and Vance era of the show is its most reviled by fans. My mom says that Bobby in the shower is still the biggest anti-climax of all-time. Well, next to Geraldo and the vault. LOL If anyone remembers that Emma moment, let me know.

Heck, some may even argue that DALLAS was a timeslot hit due to its lead-in, the immensely popular DUKES OF HAZZARD!! (All three shows were produced by Lorimar.) It's kind of funny to think that FC was created by the same guy who created THE WALTONS!!! I was just a kid at the time but vividly remember watching the Dukes on Fridays with my folks, who would also stay watching the Ewings and their counterparts over at FC. I have one vivid memory of FC as it aired: Emma standing on the ledge of the house, dressed in a white gown and blond hair whipping all around (due to the wind), threatening to jump. Does anyone else remember this? Why did she want to jump? Who finally convinced her not to?

"In This Life", from Bette Midler's 1995 release, Bette of Roses. I ended up buying a (used) copy of the CD after the AW finale aired just so I could have that song!!

Dear lord, NO!!!! I saw it in the theater with a very good friend of mine, and neither of us were/are prudes, but it was too much for me. I walked out - the only movie I have ever walked out of!!!

I'm so glad that after they got the Neanderthal husband's statement, he wasn't seen in the rest of the episode. I guess further dealings with him were all off-screen. Thank goodness!!

LOL!!!

You could definitely tell while watching his scenes. Totally not into it.
