On the topic of Marie Masters, her Wikipedia page says she was on Kate & Allie. But, I can't find it on her IMDB page. Does anyone know if it's true? And if so, which episode? I can't recall seeing her and feel I would've remembered. She and Susan Saint James do look alike. Maybe that's where the confusion is.

Not a problem. I'm already re-watching season two -- it's that good!

Can I get in line with you? This is as of about two or three years ago, but P&G still has all of ATWT. However, about 80 per cent is in a format that needs to be edited, digitized and so forth. What the company decides to do with it is anyone's guess, but there certainly is a niche market for it.

I don't want to spoil anything for anyone who isn't that far into season two. I will say "Hello, Penelope" touched me in a way that a comedy hasn't in years. It was brilliant, especially the cast integration and how the story was told. I'm sad there are only a few episodes left to watch.

I couldn't agree more. Wonderful episode. What I really like about series is that it's a reminder of how good sitcoms were. For me in particular, the 1980s, where there was focus on family, current issues and yes, those "very special episode" type shows. The One Day writers have done a great job of blending it all. The actors have excellent chemistry and truly are an ensemble cast. And how good is Todd Grinnell as Schnieder? I've also missed the days of watching the younger cast members grow up. Just look at how much Alex has changed since the first season. Loving this show

I like to refer to those as "the lost years". The show was a mess -- everyone covered it well in a few earlier posts. 1986/1987 was my favourite time, maybe other than 1997. I'm jealous you're experiencing everything for the first time. Enjoy It's brilliant. I yearn for those kinds of days.

I'll be the first to admit I get attached to actors in certain roles. While Scott Bryce will always be Craig to me, Hunt Block certainly brought a different spark to the role. And I totally agree, he had chemistry with a lot of actresses, including Cady McClain and Mary Beth Evans. His protective dad persona with Lucy was totally believable too. I'd love to see him on screen again. I wonder what he's up to these days.

That's a special era to enjoy. 1986/1987 -- it's incredible how many stories were intertwined and the pace is unheard of these days. Douglas Marland was a wonderful storyteller. I often wonder what ATWT would be like now if it hadn't been taken off the air. Clearly, it's a moot point because we'll never know, but the thought crosses my mind from time to time. And I echo everyone's sentiments, the last few years were an absolute train wreck. It's best just to remember the golden years. It was a tremendous show then.
