  1. Billboard 1946 For first time on any daytime serial, background mood music accompanies the emoting, in the dramatization of Rosemary, CBS daily seg. Director Leslie Harris uses music not only to denote change of theme but also to punctuate and set the mood
  2. Re Vera Allen Her Aunt Jenny role ran July - Sept 1941 Re Lesley Woods Add David Harum 1941 re Don McLaughlin and Roger DeKoven Add The O'Neills 1941
  3. Re Ruth Mc Devitt Add This Life Is Mine - Mrs. Paddington
  4. Another radio role for Santos Ortega Woman of America 1943
  5. Re Jack Armstrong B.D. thomas - Eden (Playboy Channel soap ) 92-93
  6. I remember when Deborah returned. I had always loved her take on Jill and here she was in the middle of the divorce interpreting the script as the Jill she knew, so we went from BD's Norma Desmond to DA's more grounded performance. My recollection is of her in Jill's hotel suite set wearing pants and a blouse, way more subdued than Brenda's costumes.
  7. Tough gig to sub for La Cooper. i remember Patience Cleveland who presented more like Mom Foster.
  8. Re David Andrew MacDonald He had a day player role on AW prior to Loving
  9. Re Kristine DeBell She had an earlier role on Y&R as a runaway. I believe this was either Sharon or Julie in the Rose DeVille story of 79. Dawn Jeffory played the other runaway
  10. I wonder if the ex con was John Hughes, Chris and Edith's brother? It certainly fits the character and timeline.
  11. Re Ted Danson he has 2 other Somerset roles Dr Larson Temp replacement as Jerry Kane re Alison Argo Rhoda - Edge of Night
  12. Ryan had about 10 years on the show right? Been married a few times, no family so time to write him off to clear space for new characters. Pity that at some point it was decided to keep way too many actors/characters. That's why I supported Brad going. Michael/Kevin/Chelsea/Phyllis etc should be gone to allow core characters new people to interact with rather than going around in circles.
  13. Don't recall seeing this pic before. Peggy (Fran Myers) just faded away .I believe she was last seen in 79? was she given any kind of exit?
  14. Brock/Beau should have been given an on air tribute and died offscreen. The 45th anniversary episode should have dealt with Brock's death. He was Mac's father, had relationships (romantic and otherwise) with Lorie, Leslie, Julia, Esther, Jill etc all of whom were apart of that anniversary week. Plenty of opportunities for flashbacks to a character who was part of the show for many years.
  15. Why would they do that and why would anybody buy it? Like who would be spending money on Y&R's background music?
  16. Re carrie genzel Her B&B nurse was named Melinda. She was on the list of my next requests, and here they are Ted Danson Diane McBain Camila Ashland David Andrew McDonald Alison Argo Robert Christian Kevin McCarthy
  17. Exactly. That music was such apart of Y&R. Today's stuff is so generic.
  18. Re Kim Hamilton Add Executive Suite - Elly Gibson #2 re Hilda Haynes Her Executive Suite character was Bessy Johnson
  19. Re Peter Donay Add pilot Delta County - John McCain Jr
  20. Re Helen Funai Add Behind The Screen - Jeanie
  21. Re James Karen According to his SOD interview he was on Love of Life 51/52 and also appeared on Guiding Light, Another World and Edge of Night.
  22. i believe Meg Baldwin on GH in the late 60's had a mastectomy.
  23. So apart from the clothes and big ass phones, did y'all think the 93 ep was dated in any way? Could it have played today as a current ep?
  24. Carl Low (Dr Bob Rogers from the mid 60's and till the end of the 70's) lamented to SOD in 1980 that he wished SFT would write him out rather than use him occasionally as he wanted to land another soap gig but felt he was too identified with his Search role.
  25. You enjoyed it so much you switched off halfway???
