Forgive me if this one's been posted already: http://www.tvguide.com/News/Revenge-Mike-Kelley-Exits-1064387.aspx

Sorry, I couldn't get behind "Elementary." Lucy Liu? No thanks.

You wouldn't say that if you had read my comments (made out of frustration and jealousy, I must admit) regarding Agnes Nixon in the AMC reboot thread.

And if that's the only way to tell CBS' primetime shows apart? Oh, boy!

Good job, CBS! Your shows are so damn indistinguishable, even intelligent folks can't tell 'em apart anymore!

With so much wood floating around on TV, no one needs concern himself over the depletion of our forests.

Because there isn't enough drift.... Oh, wait, I've used this already.

Because there isn't enough driftwood among its cast?

That made me smile. Thank you so much.

Same. Damn, but I wish LIAMST had been preserved on videotape. I don't know if I would have enjoyed its entire run, but that last storyline that saynotoursoap has described sounds like good, gripping drama.

Nah, she just cut back on the coke.

On the same page they mention Mark and Julie's sexual incompatibility storyline is an ad for an "Exciting Electric VIBRATOR".

Kyle and Reva. Those were the days, my friend.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0067785/ Given the timing of everything, I think she was hired specifically for that role, because she and SuLu had appeared together in "The Woman Who Sinned (By Making a Bad TV Movie)."

Torrent?

KNOTS' best writers, in my opinion, were Peter Dunne, Joel J. Feigenbaum, Richard Gollance and Ann & Ellis Marcus. Not that I didn't love the Lechowicks' and Stanleys' contributions. In fact, I've gone on-record about how much I loved all 14 seasons of KNOTS. (Even S13 managed to end on a good, if not great, note.) But those four writers, I think, "got" the mix of kitchen-sink realism and melodrama better than anyone else.

True, but look at who was using it: Ann Marcus, who probably was the last writer to give Laura (and Constance McCashin) a substantial amount of story.

Sorry, Eric, I loved Donna, too.

Yes, in a way. Jacobs always had final say-so on stories, casting and such. However, as Lynn Marie Latham and Bernard Lechowick ascended the pecking order, they were handed more power, resulting in major changes in pacing and editing as the show moved forward. Then, John Romano came in (to replace Larry Kasha, who had died the previous season) and everything came unglued, forcing Jacobs to stop production while he and Michael Filerman figured out how to get the show back on-track. (According to an interview with knotslanding.net, Jacobs knew the show was in trouble when the waitresses at a diner he frequented stopped talking about the show.) That was when Filerman brought in Ann Marcus, who had worked with him at LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDORED THING. (Marcus was the HW, while Filerman worked as an exec for CBSD.) Marcus had been responsible for the Ciji Dunne story during S4, when she and husband Ellis were story editors.

Apropos of nothing, but was JH's appearance on GUIDING LIGHT truly that special? I just figured it was another cameo! LOL!

I'm glad you enjoyed the clip, Chit. I just wish my girl, Lisa Brown (Nola, GL) would loosen the hell up, lol.

Has "Unsung" done an episode covering Jennifer Holliday's life story and career? If not, they should. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9srjxtcp7Y8

Shirley was a fool.

"YES!" to Barbara Mason. I still recall those nights when Mama Khan would sit and listen to "She's Got the Papers, But I've Got the Man."

Are those the only artists left from that era?
