You just inspired me to watch a clip of Passions with Mo McCormick in it (I have only ever seen Andrea Evans as Rebecca). It certainly brings back the whole trope about casting mothers of characters who look old enough to be the character’s siblings.

New Zealand.

And the NYT bad takes continue...

Not sure if it’s already been mentioned here, but Corey Page (Richard Wilkins, Loving/The City) apparently starred in a streaming series late last year called The Third, which was about a a gay married couple who brought in a third guy to help “spice things up”. It seems ok from the snippets I’ve observed.

This weekly synopsis has the last mention of Ned... https://classicsodloving.tumblr.com/post/76887132063/week-of-november-9-november-13-1987, which seems in line with what you have posted above.

This is really sad. What this poor girl had to suffer all these years 😢

During a BLM protest in Missouri last night...

One of the most bizarre things I’ve watched recently. Just watch this... trust me, just watch...

Ok my curiosity is piqued by this. Whose name is being censored exactly?? It’s rushing way over my head here. PM me if you need to...

I guess he is now No-Vax DjoCovid 😏

LOL YAAAS! This is how I remember Doris... the one who always called Sharon “GUUUUURL!”. I noticed Liz Foster did that with Jill as well.

Thanks for posting the link @Soapsuds. Just watched that Locher Room instalment now, and OMG I was in stitches! Scott Bryce and Hillary B Smith could still do a sibling relationship even today (hell they even LOOK like siblings). Add can I just also say - Gregg Marx definitely has DILF qualities. His face (and his eyes especially) is just so easy to get lost in. I love how HBS keeps trying to get Gregg to “play with her” on various projects. So obvious that they still love each other so much. Oh! I also loved how they talked about one of my favourite ATWT scenes ever - when Craig’s crimes are finally exposed to Lyla and she went off on him. They even mentioned *the slap*. The scene in question start at 43:54

That happens a little bit into The City’s run, as both characters don’t start on The City until a number of episodes in, and even then their first appearances are staggered to begin with.

I believe it will include Lisa Peluso. I was watching the first reunion live, and she actually commented from her real estate account in the Youtube chat at the time that she wanted to participate in another one of these.

According to this: https://soapoperadvdlist.webs.com/search-for-tomorrow, Rod Arrants left around May/June 1984. There is another episode online somewhere from around that time that has a really sweet Travis/TR scene, just before he gets called out (I think this is the lead up to TR’s kidnapping).

Was Gwen Sherman related to Mitchell Sherman on Y&R? Or was that pure coincidence?

Many thanks as always @victoria foxton 😁

Based on the limited amount of knowledge I have about US Presidents and First Ladies, I would dare say this is unprecedented, much like Trump’s presidency really.

Thank you so so much. This just answered a LOT of plot questions for me. It didn’t even occur to me until I read those recaps that Bela was the final person that Wendy saw before she disappeared, as well as him being the creepy head guy during the circus stuff with Ryder/Danny/TR. I now know what you meant about him having a dark side (which obviously they toned down A LOT in the final months). It also disappoints me a bit that not more fuss was made about Wendy’s disappearance apart from the obvious loose ends - that seemed to fade away after a few weeks. Incidentally, another question... how did Stephanie die?

You definitely weren’t reading into it. There was an episode from Thanksgiving 1986 where Jo was struggling just after the whole Ella ordeal, and finally she just broke down completely just as Stu walked in. Was a very touching scene with the two of them.

I still cannot believe they killed off Suzy so close to the cancellation. Actually, how far ahead did NBC/P&G announce that SFT was being cancelled? I agree on the Bela/Sunni stuff, but it was kinda cute to watch at the same time. It took me ages to realise that was Lee Godart playing Bela though (❤️). Ella Hobbs was deranged AF. But I guess being so loyal to someone as evil as Judge Henderson (with so little in return) would drive anyone mad. I also agree it did feel bizarre without the likes of Stephanie, Wendy et al.

Thank you so much for clarifying this. Incidentally I was just watching the final 30 episodes of SFT (the McLearys in Ireland storyline), and I actually loved how focused it was. It dragged out a bit, but it was wonderful storytelling on its own. Such a shame it couldn’t continue on.

Not being all too familiar with SFT’s history, I’m assuming the Janet being mentioned here is Liza’s mother? And from the surname, was she related to Stu in some way? Also, what was Warren Carter’s backstory when he first came to Henderson?
