  1. In terms of DOOL hunks, Victor Webster walked so Matt Cedeño could RUN!
  2. Up to "Lead Me to the Altar," and I was digging Cathy's abridged acoustic version of "Will You Love Me Tomorrow."
  3. Very nice, @DRW50!
  4. What, you didn't want to see Kevin Dobson's behind?
  5. Good question. I think someone at Days and/or NBC had a thing for fetish wear, though, considering we had Eden in 2000 and then less than two years later, Rex and Cassie's introductory "outfits" being aluminum foil.
  6. The Garden of Eden came before the coronation. I remember Michael Logan's year-end worst of column having a cartoon of Austin Peck, who apparently loathed the story, sneering as he played Austin in a pair of briefs made of vines.
  7. Making my way through Season 6 and I've got two things to say about Mary Kathrun. First off, I thought she was played by Michelle Johnson, who popped up on Dallas in the spring of 1985 (nope, it's Whitney Kershaw). Next, it seems like they could have brought Mary back in the episodes leading up to and after Alec Baldwin's departure. I feel like Mary could/should have fit into Leslie Hope's role as Linda.
  8. So, has Hank Northrop debuted yet? I thought it was happening this week.
  9. "Sami, but a dude" was the extent of Brady's characterization until the relationship with Chloe clicked. This resulted in several unintentionally hilarious scenes where Brady came across as glass closeted.
  10. Off the top of my head, JER also revisited possession (evil Charity) and getting buried alive (one of the MANY misfortunes dumped on poor Sheridan).
  11. Seeing William Russ again reminds me of how extremely jarring it was to see him in American History X. I was too young to see or hear much about X in 1998, so my mind was blown when we watched it in a college class about a decade later. I want to know more about that particular bit of casting, like if they always wanted an actor from a family sitcom, if ABC and/or Disney wasn't happy about it, or if Russ was intentionally trying to avoid typecasting (a year after X, he played Danny Bonaduce's abusively dismissive father in the TV movie about the making of The Partridge Family).
  12. Catherine Hicks (RH) -- Death Valley, Child's Play, Honeymoon From Hell
  13. Roseanne used to open for Jack Wagner. Who knew?
  14. Why do I feel like Louise Sorel wasn't completely acting when she said "This is the worst day of my life" while dressed as a box of french fries?
  15. I've said it before: Days in the '80s and '90s was like an auto plant when it came to supercouples and would-be supercouples. That assembly line just kept on turning.
  16. I understand. No rush/not a priority.
  17. My mind is blown that Tom and Alice only shared two episodes with all five of their children. And only in 1971, of all periods in Days history. Request: the first times, if any, that Shawn, Caroline, Roman (as played by Drake, Wayne, and Josh), Kimberly, Kayla and Bo were all in the same episode.
  18. Indeed! I remember someone on this thread wondering why exactly Erica didn't want to have a baby with Tom. I mean, look at the guy.
  19. The mix tape uploads have continued. We're now onto spring and fall 1988.
  20. Robert was off the canvas twice in the mid-'80s. He left on Friday, Dec. 13, 1985, then came back on Monday, Sept. 22, 1986. He left again on Tuesday, Jan. 13, 1987, then came back on Monday, June 1, 1987.
  21. Was that the scene where Lisa said she wouldn't go even if Paul Newman & Robert Redford were her dates?
  22. Two General Hospital actresses in the '90s: Kristina Wagner, sons born 1990 and 1994, resulted in Felicia's daughters Maxie and Georgie. Lynn Herring, sons born 1991 and 1993, resulted in Lucy's miscarried son with Scotty, then Serena.
  23. I get that they're referencing the TV Guide cover, but I still feel like they did Juliet Mills dirty there.
  24. You're welcome. @dc11786 deserves much praise for helping get many of the exact dates and lesser-known characters.
  25. The great casting shakeup happened in three waves over the course of 1991-92. Commentary on it starts here.
