Yeah, because Berjer and Hedison were the keys to AW’s success.

I actually don’t remember JFP dropping everyone over 50. Refresh my memory, please. Who did she drop? I recall her propping up Linda Dano, David Forsyth, Anna Holbrook, Charles Keating.

Very cukoo. She belittles some but others who @ her, she responds. She’s inconsistent in her ‘this is not a chat room’ rules.

Yes. It’s strange.

It also airs from 3-5 on Saturdays and 1-3 on Sundays. I’m hooked.

Just a reminder to the mentally ill woman trying to sabotage every thread: This is The Doctors discussion thread. Now that Nola has given birth on the Retro TV episodes, what’ll happen? I’m so into The Doctors and can’t wait for the app!

If you’re gonna claim to be an activist who fought for your cancelled shows, at least get the facts right. Hito- hah right on outta here.

It’s scary. The woman is mentally ill.

Exactly! The nut can’t get anything right.

I can see why these so called ‘activists’ got the soaps cancelled. Would you want to deal with this??? lol

OMG I can see why AW and ATWT were cancelled. It’s because of the ‘activists’ that thought they were saving the show but did more harm than good. I’d have cancelled the show too rather than deal with the ‘activists’.

I was indifferent to Jacquie. Not a great actress. Met her in person a couple of times and she was cold. Not particularly nice. This was on more than one occasion so it wasn’t a fluke.

Gee, I wonder if Jacquie’s relationship with the producer had anything to do with her contract being renewed.

Don’t believe everything you hear. I’ve been in the GMA audience many times and Amy always interacts nicely with the audience. Behind the scenes, I don’t know.

Amy Robach is one lucky woman!

Thank you very much. Glad to share.

I don’t know. The theory out there is that 20 million people watched Steve & Betsy’s wedding in 1984, which would easily put the show at #1, but there’s nothing out there to back that up.

The next ratings challenge in 1987: People Meters Look it up.

We interrupt our regularly scheduled ratings because of the Iran- Conta hearings. Ironic that we are going through the exact same thing now with our soaps being interrupted. The week of 7/6 to 7/10/1987 has to be taken with a grain of salt because Y&R aired only on Monday that week and there were massive pre emptions. AMC, DOOL,LOV and RH had the least pre-emptions.
