You’re right - you control your keyboard. Glad you’re not letting anyone control it for you even though some will try. My records show Millette Alexander’s last episode as 12/24/82 and Geraldine Court’s last episode as 2/4/83. Mike Bauer was in the opening you referenced above. He didn’t leave until 1984.

That one always tries to bully people, Kimmy. He’s been trying to control the board for years. SMH.

I met Ehlers in person back in her early days of soap stardom. She was nice. But then something happened with her ego when she got Emmy nominations and never won. Her comments about a War Veteran who acted opposite her on AMC turned me off to her for good. Until she apologizes for those comments, I’m glad that I make more than her. 👏

None of JFP’s successors were any better. Very true. Laibson and Brent/Marion; Rauch and Clone Reva; Conboy and Maryanne Carruthers; Wheeler and Peapack. I’d take JFP anyday. So she killed Maureen. Maureen was a boring character and that decision was based on a focus group who said the same thing. The viewers thought Maureen was a bore. I know that I did.

You can still make great money writing soaps. The minimum you can make is determined by the WGA union contracts. They haven’t lowered their minimum rates. Writing a soap is very lucrative.

Ehlers is making 80 thousand a year now. How the mighty have fallen.

Lauren-Marie Taylor is lovely. Great to see her again.

Thanks. Sorry for the repeat. It’s brought up discussion though. I think SFT was doing great in the ratings at this time. Liza & Travis were ‘it’ and they were capitalizing on Rod Arrants having the Luke Spencer hair. lol

Oh lawd. 👎

Ah, maybe. Or maybe they were just desperate for a job. Any job. It’s not like any of them are setting the acting world on fire.

Who didn’t Chappel have problems with? rme

Can’t remember if this has been discussed on here before but if you go to anitakeal.com there is about an hour of SFT clips from 1980 featuring Anita Keal. She played Mignon, Travis Sentell’s mother. On her page, there is a link that says Search For Tomorrow. What a wierd storyline with Tante Helene.

Met Mary a few times. Whoever said above that maybe she was not liked because no one really said anything about her is correct. The less said, the better.

Larry Gates and Bill Roerick. They kind of said it all yesterday. They were VERY different. Bill Roerick was a sweetheart. Larry, not so much. lol Larry was a crotchety old thing.

Chandler isn’t gay! Too wierd.

Maeve is just lovely. Met her a few times. Always kind. Larry Gates and Bill Roerick. They kind of said it all. They were VERY different. Bill Roerick was a sweetheart. Larry, not so much.

Smirky. Ick.

This is not right. I have notified the appropriate authorities. Mr. Gonz**** is on notice.

Oh lord. Be afraid Chandler. Be VERY afraid. I sent Chandler’s people the head’s up about this. #Psycho

He is a bully. I could say SO much more, but I won’t. @Toupsand @Errol Soapsuds is being a bully. Saying to me “do I report you again” is bullying! Nope! Not the same person!!

@Toups This is bullying.

+1 Just consider the source.

Great questions. For some reason Sony sold all of their Music rights from all of Sony Pictures Television and also their Movies. They bought some rights back. I know. It makes NO sense to sell them and years later to buy some back. But my point is that it was a Sony thing to sell the music rights.

Just to set the record straight, SONY sold off the music rights to all of their tv shows and movies back then. That had nothing to do with JFP.

Kim was great everytime I saw her in person in NYC outside of the GL studio. Seeing an actor one on one outside of the studio as they leave or go into work is very different than a fan event where the actor knows they have to be “on” and friendly. I saw Kim at 6:30 am one morning as she walked into the GL studio looking like a mess and she let me take a picture of her even though she looked like she just rolled out of bed and she was kind and friendly. I interacted with her many times (never at 6:30 am again) and she was always friendly. Come on guys. Chris Goutman having an affair with a lesbian? Affairs, yes, but not with a lesbian. Geez.
