Exactly. In the 1967 episdes I have read the scripts, Susan is still quite an important character. Alan is MIA and she is quite involved with Frank Carver but Bob Hill is also interested in her.

Yes Indeed ! The website was hacked recently and its creator, Mark, said it couldn’t be revived !

That's true ! If only Lou Scofield or Henry Slesar had given their archives somewhere.

Yes, they only have a bunch from 67 and from 69. I think summaries of these episodes were already online on the defunct EON homepage, but I can't check anymore now Some more from April 1965 ! FRIDAY, APRIL 9th 1965 LOVE OF LIFE - #3534 Bruce said goodbye to Van and Tammy who were off to get Lynn and go to New York. Bruce hadn’t told Van about his scraps with Vivian and Barbara. Henry arrived with Hank and Scheff at the Bannings. Bruce was relieved. Henry and Scheff were amazed that Van wasn’t there : maybe Vivian and Wannberg were wrong after all. Rick joined and was open-mouthed to see his son. The three men talked about Wannberg and his apparent double act leaving the men puzzled. Bruce made Henry tell about the CIA. Barbara had gone downhill, Vivian plainly nuts, Van villified and Rick frustrated. Was it contrived ? At the Wannbergs’, Elizabeth had opened some mail. She was absorbed in a page from an old German newspaper containing faded pictures of a Hans Richter, a Major Sterling… She was fascinated by the account of a war trial but Wannberg stopped her and was furious she opened it. Wannberg tried to explain that Hans Richter was a « friend » but had to admit that Major Sterling was Bruce Sterling. Wannberg ordered Elizabeth to forget it and never mention it again. There was menace in her father’s voice and Elizabeth felt it. SEARCH FOR TOMORROW - #3550 Fred came back home when Alison was signing some papers Sam sent. She thought he sent the papers through a messenger to avoid their curiosity about his private life. They knew from Sam’s answers he was married but there was no Mrs. Reynolds and that’s all. Alison assured she still trusted Sam and she was concerned about her own situation : she still couldn’t get pregnant. Alison told Fred she was thinking more and more about adoption. Dr. Rogers visited Sam in his hotel room. Sam was preparing for a trip to Tulsa for business. They talked about Len’s experiments with the donation Sam gave and Dr. Rogers had to force Len into accepting. Rogers admitted he came for a reason : he asked Sam if he would accept a position on the Board of Trustees of the Hospital. Sam said he would think about it. In the Tates’ kitchen, Arthur told Jo he loved working outside in his latest job. Patti appeared with a lovely dress she bought while shopping with Alison. She intended to wear it when Len came to dinner. Patti went to change. Jo was happy she bought a new dress as she didn’t have one since breaking up with Ed Moore. Arthur wondered about the motivations. AS THE WORLD TURNS – #2355 In Neil’s quarters, Neil told Doug that their lives were different : Doug always knew he was an orphan, he wasn’t lied about his true identity all his life. Doug said he promised Judith he would never tell Neil the truth but he did it because he wanted Neil to realize it was Doug who wanted his son to be a doctor, it wasn’t Penny’s fault. Doug would like to see Judith first to explain to her. In her room, Penny remembered Chris’s words before leaving and her promise to wait. The phone rang. It was Neil. He told her he had to leave town to settle some things but admitted he had midjudged her. He swore he would call her back. Later, Neil was on the plane to New York. A female passenger told him it was sunny but Neil didn’t know what to think. He arrived at his mothers’. Judith was surprised to see him and noticed he was upset. She first thought it was she and Jerry invited Penny to spend time with them but Neil said Doug Cassen told him he was his biological father. Judith nearly fainted. She assured Frank Wade knew she was pregnant when he married her and he loved Neil as his own son. Judith admitted she was wrong telling Doug about Neil after so many years. Neil made a point calling Judith « Mrs. Stevens » and he left, making Judith realize she no longer had a son. Back in his bookstop, Neil had a visit from Lisa. She didn’t know how to make Bob realize she wanted to remarry him. Neil apologized for not being very helpful. At the Hughes’, Tom told Bob he would like to stay more with his father.

THE GUIDING LIGHT - #4545 At the Fletchers’, Paul had to tell Robin about Julie’s suicide attempt. Robin noted how ironic it was that Julie didn’t want a child at first and was so desperate about this new pregnancy. Paul assured Robin they would have a child too. Robin was worried she wasn’t pregnant yet and wondered if she was punished for marrying Paul knowing Johnny was opposed to the wedding. Paul told her it was ridiculous and they didn’t have to wait for a child’s permission and Paul assured Jane was the only one to blame. Robin thought Johnny was not ready to accept her as a step-mother so soon after Anne’s death but for Paul, it was Jane who planted ideas into his son’s head. Paul assured Johnny would come in the summer : he wouldn’t let his son live far from him for a long time. Jane arrived. She said she felt she couldn’t stay alone after what happened to Julie. Robin offered Jane stay in Johnny’s room for the night. Jane admitted she was more troubled about losing George. She knew she did the right thing telling George the truth but she had developed feelings for him. Jane said distance could help and she was thinking of leaving.

Henry knew Bruce would get legal action about transferring custody to Barbara. Van and Tammy were in a motel near Murdock prison. Tammy had been told that even though Lynn was to be releases, the doctors wanted to keep her for a few more days. Tammy was worried that Lynn hadn’t recovered from the loss of her baby. Van tried to reassure her and Tammy wanted to go straight to New York and find an apartment for herself and Lynn, then she would come back and get Lynn. Van agreed and called Bruce to tell her of her plans but Scheff answered the phone. In Henry’s office, Bruce asked how quickly the custody change could be done. Henry said there would be quite a delay and the talk turned to Wannberg. Henry didn’t see him as a threat, simply a friendly meddler. Henry had put through a call to Washington : Wannberg was a brillant German chemist, sent to a Russian prison camp by an allied court martial but Washington had cleared him. Bruce wondered why he came to Rosehill. In the evening, Alan was babysitting while Scheff was out and when Bruce arrived, Alan told him the day with Hank was fine. A white-faced Vanessa came in, demanded to know what happened. Bruce explained but Vanessa was appalled : no matter the law, taking Hank temporarily could mean a break between Barbara and them, forever. SEARCH FOR TOMORROW - #3551 It was breakfast at the Tates’.

At the Tates’, Jo had finished cooking when Patti called, saying she was still at the hospital and would be a little late. Jo noticed Patti seemed discouraged.

Nancy wished Penny would leave her room and noticed her daughter did no longer seem dispressed. Penny admitted she was waiting for Neil. In Doug’s office, Judith was confronting Doug to know why he told Neil about his parentage. He tried to explain he did it to stop Neil from blaming Penny about his career and made him realize it was Doug who pushed him into being a doctor. Nancy told Pa she was worried about Penny. She couldn’t really understand what was going on with her daughter and conversation turned to Donald. Nancy wished Donald and Ellen had married but Pa reminded Nancy of Don’s love for Janice. Nancy worried that as Janice was dead, Don was alone but Pa said he might come back to Oakdale at a point. In his bookshop, Neil was thinking about the phone call he had to make to Penny when he noticed Judith’s presence. She tried to justify herself, saying marrying Frank Wade gave her son a family and that her one-night-stand with Doug Cassen was a mistake. Neil assured he didn’t have a mother anymore and Judith left. Neil finally called Penny. She was relieved but insisted on coming to the bookshop to talk with him. Neil said it was too early for him to talk about them. He explained to Penny that Frank Wade wasn’t his father. He told her about how Doug encouraged him to pursue medicine again after he saved Pa’s life. Penny also wanted him to be a doctor but she didn’t push him. It was Doug who did, his biological father. Penny said she would only want to hear if he still loved her but there was no love for Neil at the time. THE GUIDING LIGHT - #4546 Papa was at the Bannings’ to explain Meta what happened with Julie.

Bill thought she should give him some space as he was going through a hard time. Walking in the park, Mike remembered Dr. Hansen telling him his wife had to be institutionalized. Mike felt guilty for everything that happened in her marriage to Julie. He flashbacked to their wedding night on May 1963. He said he didn’t give Julie the kind of marriage she wanted, that’s why she left him but he kept on hurting her. He remembered when he accused her of wanting Alex since the beginning, that she had planned on being with Alex before leaving him. Julie had denied. Back to real time, Mike burst into tears and wondered what he had done to Julie.

Lisa thought he should go to Rockford to her parents’ but Tom would like to spend time with his father. Later, Neil visited Lisa. She told Neil that Nancy asked her to spend Easter with the family.

Papa thought Bert should join them to watch Good Friday service on TV but Bert wanted to settle with Hope. Papa wondered if Jane would stay alone in her apartment without Julie. He wished her friendship with George Hayes would blossom to something more because Jane needed love. At Jane and Julie’s, Mike tried to convince Jane she should stay. He assured her George would miss her but Jane said George was fond of her but it was before he knew what she did to Paul and Robin. Mike couldn’t convince her so he picked up Hope’s things and left. In George’s office, George called Jane again but she didn’t pick up the phone. George told Alex he wondered where Jane could be. Alex tried to reassure George he would see Jane later.

I found Vendig's archives in Boston too but it stopped on October 1964. If anyone knows where to find EON / LOL from 65-67, I will be the happiest

Oh very interesting ! I will try to get the Arrighi scripts ! I had totally forgotten about them. It’s a mess to get the John Hess collection. Dartmouth asked me to hire a student to get copies of the scripts. I had found one but he vanished I will try again this fall. For EON, yes it is Vendig. Couldn’t find anything. I only have some scripts from 67. Same for LOL, except these breakdowns from Packard/Provo era, nothing before 1972.

Oh yes, I can’t Thank you enough for what you brought about GH early days recaps 😍

You are right about TGL. The show mentions Los Angeles regularly in the scripts I have. I don’t know when Springfield will become the show’s city. From what I read, I really think TGL is the most interesting from the era. The melodrama with Neil on ATWT is a bit too much for my state (divorcing Penny for nearly no reason, very convulted). SFT is very natural. People even seem happy compared to GL/ATWT. Maybe conflict will be coming. LOL only has one story around vilain Wannberg. It is overdramatic but I think this is the tone of the show. I don’t mind the Porters though. Always likes TSS. Very psychological stuff but I only have a few scripts. Wish I could find EON somewhere but couldn’t locate scripts

I had no idea for Augusta but I would have loved to see the character on screen at the time for sure.

You are right about the Averys. They left in early 1967 and John D. Hess took over with the shift to the Porters. When I read scripts from 1965 and one from 1967, I am amazed how much the show had changed (only Valerie, Peter, Janet and Susan remain).

A few document I found in Wisconsin archives. Hope you'll enjoy !smallpdf-convert-20240717-190742.zipsmallpdf-convert-20240717-190742.zip

My pleasure … I have some complete months (april-june) of 1965 to recap (LOL, SFT, ATWT, GL with some TSS) but it’s very long to do.

Right and wrong were difficult concepts.

By telling Neil he pushed him into medicine because he was his father, Doug would make Neil realize Penny was not to blame.

She asked Bob if he would marry Sylvia and if he would talk to Lisa about Sylvia. Bob said he would, someday. In his quarters, Neil received a phone call from Doug. Doug assked Neil if he could and see him. Neil agreed but he was still angry at his mother who kept from him his true parentage. Doug assured he didn’t change who he was.

She blurted out Wannberg was a maddler who seemed to enjoy the misery around him. Link mentioned Sandy’s scar but Sandy came downstairs shouting for them to stop. Sandy told Tammy she didn’t like what it was like to be disfigured but Tammy saw Sandy as a self-indulgent fool and that a guilt-ridden Link had taken the coward’s way out – drink. Link told Tammy she ought to leave if she was unhappy in the house. In his office, Rick was going through receipts with Fred, the bartender and talked about his son Hank and Barbara’s move to the Carlsons’. Rick wondered how to remain close to his son. Tammy arrived and poured her heart out to Rick. He tried to comfort her but turned to his own confusion. Tammy told Rick it was not Vivian who was to be feared but the man who influenced her, Dr. Wannberg. Rick realized Barbara had no legal right to Hank as the child was legally in Vanessa and Bruce’s custody. Tammy thought legal proceedings would create more drama.

Janet was surprised Valerie seemed to care about her relationship with Kip and she assured she would make up with him. Valerie said Janet shouldn’t think of herself as only a body which could have been disfigured. She wouldn’t find love if she would think so low of herself.

Len asked Brad to mind his own business if he really was Len’s friend. After Len left, Patti told Brad she felt touched and thought she and Brad should stop being curious. In his hotel room, Sam was on the phone with Bill White. Sam told he would go back to New York when he was allowed by the doctor.

Penny entered Doug’s office and told him she needed his help to understand Neil.

Eileen Fulton left on May 5th, the day "Our Private World" first aired that night. She told Bob on the phone she was leaving town. She appeared on May 12th, calling Tom. Haven't checked if she appeared again later.

Thanks English is not my main language but I try to write summaries as much as I can. I honeslty would need some people interested to write some too

That's what I thought. It's the closest we can have to the real thing. I hope I can find more, it's so complicated to find all soaps for the same time period !

After collecting some scripts, I can give you an idea of what CBS soaps looked like in May 1965. 5 soaps out of 6 is the best I could do ("The Edge of Night" scripts are nowhere to be found...). Hope with time and money, I will be able to do that for many many days TUESDAY, MAY 11th 1965 LOVE OF LIFE – #3557 Vivian was writing a letter when she heard Hank crying. Scheff entered, she felt that Barbara didn’t show the proper patience in dealing with the litte boy. Scheff added that, as Vivian had probably noticed, Barbara’s nerves seemed to get the better of her. Later, Vivian admitted Bruce, who had arranged to meet Henry but Henry wasn’t home yet. Vivian told Bruce he shouldn’t try to see Barbara, who was antagonist to him since their last meeting when he upset her so badly abour Dr. Wannberg. Henry arrived and told he arranged for Dr. Corbet to fly in on Thursday for Link’s surgery. Bruce wasn’t aware of the surgery and said he had to call Van, who was in Tolo, to tell her. After Vivian left, Bruce told Henry that Dr. Russo was sure Barbara was administered medications, probably from Wannberg. Henry said he would try to talk Barbara and Vivian into letting Barbara having a check-up. Bruce told Henry that a sentence Wannberg told him – « you condemn me unjustly » - just rang weird to him. After dinner, Vivian admitted that Barbara had been under the weather and didn’t care properly for Hank. Henry seized the opportunity to convince Vivian that Barbara should have have a check-up as if it was Vivian’s idea. Vivian interrupted Barbara as she was leaving for Wannberg’s. She gently suggested the check-up but Barbara indicated she would move out if her grandmother insisted. Vivian was left hurt and dismayed. SEARCH FOR TOMORROW – #3572 At the Bergmans’, Stu and Marge talked about Sam Reynolds being in the hospital with bad gall blader. Stu was surprised as Sam seemed to be very careful about his health. Marge was aghast that Stu was reading a book about university. She reminded him that Junior was not born yet. With Stu’s reading and Janet’s constant advice, she would be very ready. Dr. Rogers visited Sam in his hospital room. Rogers said that Dr. Jaeger would do the surgery as soon as the X-rays confirmed it was needed. If the surgery was postponed, Sam could have a more intense attack he already had. Sam said he had some affairs he had to put order in before the surgery. Len came upon Dr. Rogers in the corridor and said he hoped he didn’t offend Dr. Rogers when he asked to be taken off Sam’s case. He asked Dr. Rogers how Sam was. In his room, Sam was on the phone with Eric and told him he should come to Henderson right away. He wanted his lawyer near him because some changes had to be made in his will before the surgery.

Amy told Grace she had a job interview but didn’t get the job. Connie arrived. Amy introduced her neighbour to her grandmother. Connie said David could give Amy a job but Amy didn’t want her to ask him. After Grace left, Connie asked Amy if she still harbored feelings for Paul. Amy said he had changed a lot but didn’t want to tell Connie more about Paul nor Kit. Connie left and Paul visited Amy. He wanted to see Lisa but she was sleeping. Paul said he might be reinstated. Amy said she was glad because he was treated unfairly but she assured she loved Kit but she would let Paul build a relationship with Lisa. Paul was grateful as he could never have much of a relation with his son.

Thanks for the clarification !

Do you know when Roerick and Gates last appeared ? I also wonder when they were taken off contract.

Thanks !

Can someone tell me how to access the old website ? I still can’t believe we had lost it 😡

That's awful !

Thanks a lot !

I will get some scripts of SFT from early-mid 1965 soon so it will help.
