More from Another World When Evan plans on Shooting John (his lover, Olive's husband) they struggle over the gun and Evan ends up dead. Then Olive arrives on the scene, finds John alive and Evan dead, and shows her true colors in an emotional breakdown, as she curses and berates her husband for killing the only man she ever loved. John, clueless cuckold up to now, is stricken almost dumb, except to say "OLIVE!" (much nervous laughter from this viewer of old Popeye cartoons) and Olive continues to sob and and shriek and mumble and sob, to unusually creepy background music. I was in my teens in the '70s and this was the most powerful scene I had ever watched but I doubt it was a Lemay favorite. Apparently the the closing credits eschewed the usual theme and continued Olive's sobbing and wailing with the creepy music.

On AW, Rachel's trial for murdering Mitch, Mac meltsdown on the witness stand when he finds out he can't possibly be the father of Rachel's baby.

Thank you Khan. My late father watched it, mostly because he was a big fan of Little House in repeats when he retired

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

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.

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
