But you know, I liked the fact that the writers acknowledged off-screen relationships. It seemed realistic that other people existed in Oakdale even though we didn't see them. This way the Hollisters didn't seem like they came out of nowhere but were already in town waiting to be woven into the fabric of the show. Too bad it didn't work out in this case.

I didn't see this when it originally aired because I was still in school, but I have viewed it on YouTube, and it took place concurrently with the "Lisa at The Willows" plot. Chris Hughes was torn about selling the property because of sentimental attachments since it had belonged to his late father (Grandpa Hughes.) The family eventually agreed that since they weren't using this out-of-town land, and were unlikely to, that they should sell it (along with the mineral rights, LOL.)

Wouldn't Cali Timmons' physical appearance make her not the most natural choice to play the daughter of Lucas and Felicia? Wasn't the fact that Alicia Coppola shared similar Italian features with her on-screen parents one of the reasons that made many people prefer her to Robin Christopher?

Wow, that's Patricia Richardson of "Home Improvement," right? I had no idea she appeared on "The Doctors!"

Long time lurker, first time poster here! It seems like Scott breezed through quite a few wives in the early to mid 70s. Lauri and Jennifer were a little before my time, but i definitely remember Kathy. Could someone please tell me more about Lauri and why Scott ended up raising her son? I remember someone in this thread said that the boy's natural father was a louse and that Scott wanted to protect the child from knowing the truth. Thank you!
