I think you mean Bryan White. Bryan Adams - totally different guy, but I can see how easy it is to get them mixed up.

Yup, and his future (now former) father-in-law was on DAYS at the same time.

Speaking of Doreen, Jonelle Allen was a guest star in the second season of Barney Miller, where she played one of two female beat cops in trouble for throwing the detective's drug bust off track. It's hilarious when she starts sobbing into Inspector Luger's arms, wailing, "We don't want to go to Staten Island!!!!" LOL!!

Thanks to all of you for the clarification!!

I couldn't agree more!!!

Thanks for sharing those!!

I know that Marcy was already back on AMC by the time Roscoe Born showed up on that soap. They were in different storylines, does anyone know if their characters ever crossed paths?

Alas, we'll never know. That's why I can't blame the first couple of actors completely for not making the part work. The show had to fill the spot as LB became ill at just about the same time filming was to begin, so it's no wonder the acting was so uneven.

I'll have to check that out. Sounds great. LOL

This may have been the best episode this season. The actress playing Jenny was perfect, and a flawless mix of fragility and strength.

Did anyone see the entire ep tonight? I missed the last couple of minutes, as my DVR cut out. Thanks!!

Any soap that uses The Cure deserves points just for even thinking about it!! I mean, soap opera = The Cure, right? I love it!!!

God bless him!!

I love that title. That's awesome.

Gotta love Dee Hall's helmet hair. Ahhh, those glamorous 80s...

Horrible.

Not to mention the BEST C.C.!!!

Robert Barr (Roscoe Born), that's who you're thinking of.

Very well-done episode. I liked that the cast went back to Chicago and elaborated on their scenes at the actual locales where they were filmed.

Thanks!!!

In my mind, Eden and Cruz reunited and are today enjoying their grandchildren!!!!

That makes two of us, even though the rest of the series did have some fun moments. I remember one critic, when Hangin' With Mr. Cooper premiered, calling it kind of a cross between Three's Company (the three adult roommates, two girls and a guy) and The White Shadow (a former NBA player becomes a high school coach), with a black cast. I never did find out whether it was Dawnn Lewis' choice to leave the show. Does anyone know for sure?

Yes, I remember the live season of Roc (I think it was the second season). Also, Charles S. Dutton went on to play Dr. Eric Foreman's (Omar Epps) father on House. I think comedian Mark Curry would be a good candidate for UH. He came up through the ranks of standup to get his own sitcom in the early 90s (though obviously, nowhere near as big as the ones helmed at this time by Jerry Seinfeld and Tim Allen would be), was badly injured in a near-tragic freak accident that nearly drove him to suicide, and would return to his roots both in standup and in a sitcom (he plays the best friend of Scott Baio's character in that NICK show I can't remember the title of). On second thought, though, wasn't he profiled in Life After? That might cancel out a UH episode, but who knows.

Oh my gosh, what a vintage treasure!! Thanks for posting this.

This show was only in production for less than two years - talk about not getting a fair shake, but when you factor in the Persian Gulf coverage that was (rightfully so) pre-empting it, there's no way it could have built an audience. What were ratings like when compared to the ratings of today? Were they atrocious even by early 90s standards?
