It's wild because didn't ABC try to get Another World? It seems like it would do well on there. As much as I enjoyed Port Charles, I would have preferred AW on ABC.

I was only 2 when John died. Yes, I do think John appreciated the Pat that was dependent on him. However, I do think it would have been cool for him to fall in love with the Pat who was independent and making her way in Cory Publishing. Heck, if she was still leaving the show when she was, they could have gotten back together and left together. They and their kids could have driven story for years.

I've always felt that most Head Writers are always suited to certain shows over another. MD did seem more suited to AW in the 80s than others. Of course, there are just plain crappy HWs as well, i.e. Dena Higley.

WTF is this?

🤣

A John Ross & Christopher swap would have been amazing.

I remember these when I was a kid. Weren't these in the Enquirer? It was a fake out for folks trying to spoil how Bobby comes back?

That was a wild ep to see. BBG was amazing in it and the resolution was da bomb!

Seems like it would have made more sense to put SB on at 2 pm and do AW at 3. Same with Texas. AW was getting bad but it still had more to fight with against GH and GL at 3 pm and being sandwiched between DOOL and AW may have helped get more viewers. Even putting DOOL at 12:30 and airing SFT at 1:30 could have helped Texas & SB. Looks like SFT was holding it's own pretty well before going over to NBC. Did Capitol do better or worse for CBS after NBC took SFT? Russ would have been a better choice to go to Texas. He goes to Houston and meets Kevin and Rena and the show can have him commute back and forth for a case, he interacts w/ the folks and stays there eventually. Iris stays on AW. But DB's Russ isn't that charismatic, so who knows?

I remember this interview. He then talked about what he walked into when he defected over to NBC, including their show development and how their daytime was a mess.

I just found the story and it involved a minor. Such a pig...ugh.

Loved the irony of him talking about being single and about how dating had changed considering that he remarried Loyita like 4 years later. Meant to be.

Damn Austin was a nasty SOB. He was so evil and scary when he was on the show. Austin is soooo creepy. David Gautreaux was so good in this role. This should have been a one note role but even through his evil, you could feel how much he "loved" Sarah. A true villain that thankfully was never "redeemed". Today, he would have been redeemed and made the town mayor.

If Pluto had a soap channel with old episodes of different shows, that would be awesome.

Wasn't it DM who wouldn't agree to go along with ABC's idea of EON becoming a late night show? I would think if most of the cast and crew were good w/ it, he would have to put up or shut up.
