This will be the second time she's played a character previously played by Deborah Adair.

It felt that way for me, an occasional viewer at the time. Then it seemed Peggy disappeared. It was a very different Holly then too. A wide eyed naive young blonde babe type. DEERING was very different, a wide eyed blonde babe type, maybe even the dumb blonde stereotype. I think it took a while for viewers to adjust to Maureen Garrett. I think I saw her first few scenes on a plane, returning to Springfield, thinking, that can't be Holly. But the adjustment didn't take long. Garrett proved herself early on.

That clip is great. Now I remember more. Ralph Bellamy is the dead narrator, much like whatshername from Desperate housewives. What could have been...

I remember Survivors aired late, probably 10pm. My older sisters watched it. I don't remember much plotwise, probably fell asleep, except for a scene with George Hamilton and a young and lovely Diana Muldaur in a car with no brakes and Hamilton's character aims the car to sideswipe a wall to slow it down. A similar scene showed up in a made for TV movie a week or two later. But I remember the name Baylor Carlyle. I can almost visualise the long opening credits where he describes his family and then it turns into a diagram of boxes, like a family tree. And I remember the music. I was too young to understand what The Jet Set meant, but I remember Ralph Bellamy's voice describing his son played by George Hamilton with that description, as we saw Hamilton don a crash helmet. As I recall, Lana Turner was the bigges draw. I should watch that youtube clip.

I don't think I ever watched a single episode of the original. What should I expect? Don't say Touched by an Angel, never watched that either. Too much work and post grad studies. My late father was a fan of both in his final years, which gives me pause about my curiosity.

It was a bit of a thrill when Cecile, who was dominating the show at the time, became part of NBC's "BE THERE!" advertising campaign in commercials. She was a major reason to tune in at the time - the pretty, scheming, bad girl you couldn't help but root for. We even named a car after her. ( a four-door 1982 Honda Civic hatchback) And my younger sister found a blue version of that red dress with the embroidered bib Cecile wore so often. Her Cecile dress. She wore it to a cousin's wedding and some people recognized it

Poor Perry. I was so upset.

Knot's

And I am delighted and somewhat aroused by your choice of words.

Right. I remember she was blind, briefly. And then Iris came to visit, loaded with ulterior motives and backhandedly complimented her on her wig.

I wish I could remember. But Kit and Stanley's names were bandied about negatively quite a bit.

Certainly looks that way, but even before Lemay it felt like most people were watching to see what that horrid Rachel was up to next. And there was a feeling that Courtenay's Alice was almost luminously beautiful, Rachel was more sexual. And attractive enougj while also relatable

Yes, that sounds about right It might have become a bit more natural for a short time, less full and sprayed, before the brain tumor. Some of those later perms were awful.

I love Victoria Wyndham's hair in that print ad. She wore the same big style in her photo in the Time magazine article from '76. And for quite a while after that article Time used that photo, Rachel and her big hair, crying and panic-stricken, as a promo/filler to emphasize their coverage of popular culture

I recall being a bit confused, briefly, as a youngster, seeing Barbara on The Guiding Light. The actress had made such an impression on me as an interesting but unlikeable neurotic on ATWT before that.
