I never cared much for the character of Luke Spencer but I certainly recognized Geary's skill and dedication, and his uncanny ability to stay front and center in story long after other GH vets had been swept by the wayside. He was indeed a legend of the genre. I have vague memories of him on Bright Promise, where, IIRC, he played a very different role than Luke. RIP and condolences to his family, friends and fans.

I didn't remember her still being in Salem as late as 1979. But I agree, I thought she was absolutely gorgeous.

AW: Susan Harney, Wesley Ann Pfenning, Vana Tribbey and Linda Borgeson as Alice Frame.

Upon reflection, I think you're right, their chilliness toward each other was more recent. She said women on the show in 1984 were not supportive and she still stays away from them. She seems friendly with Susan Hayes so Deidre is the only woman still around from those days, though I guess Kristian Alfonso and Leann Hunley could also qualify. And it might be someone long gone but who is still present in Suzanne's social circles.

I'm so glad she's still on the show. Seems like she may have dropped a hint about the real source of conflict between her and Dee, too.

Maggie's husband Mickey and Marlena's husband Don were law partners and best friends, and Maggie and Marlena got along famously.

They were indeed close at one time – Suzanne played herself in Dee's "Never Say Never" TV movie, supporting Dee on her surrogacy journey.

Maree is not "my" Marie -- that would be the dearly departed Lanna Saunders -- but I'm awfully glad she continues to pop up. And I'm thrilled that today featured some clips I've never seen. I loved action hero Tom Horton breaking the glass doors into the office where Bill and Mickey were struggling, and seeing a young Susan Flannery. She looks fantastic.

Yes, I didn't like most anything from that year, but it was a treat to see (what was left of) the Matthews in that Christmas video. But I know at the time I didn't like Linda Borgeson or Jennifer Runyon, and I wasn't happy with a Pat-Brian pairing, either.

It was staged very strangely because my impression was that someone tried to stab Alex.

AW: • Rachel taunting Alice about Steve: "We had a love you could never know." • Practically any scene between Vicky Wyndham and Beverlee McKinsey • Rachel saving Mac in St. Croix • Dennis and Jamie discovering Rocky's dismembered body beneath the floorboards of the Cory boathouse • The sound of Olive Randolph wailing over the end credits after she discovered that her husband killed her lover

They were all effective but Paul's is the one that got to me most. Christopher Sean has the same ability Drake Hogestyn had –- to make me absolutely believe that his character cares deeply for his onscreen family and friends.

Going back to the Reilly days, so many Salem residents have killed, tried to kill and/or threatened to kill people with virtually no fallout for them. It's bothered me for decades. With the new writers, it seems there might actually be actual consequences to Xander's violence this time. I hope it's not resolved quickly. Paul and Linsey both did a great job today.

Oh, no. I came in at the tail end of her Susan Martin run on Days and instantly loved her. I started watching GH because of her, not the Luke & Laura phenom. And though I thought AW wasted her as Mary McKinnon, her talent and charisma was still on full display. Thanks for the memories, Denise.
