I know that Christopher Marlowe is the son of the late Hugh Marlow (Another World) and an actress named K. T. Stevens. Is Elizabeth Stack the daughter of the late Robert Stack?

Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)
In that clip above, Brooke English is talking to her dying father, Phillip English. Phillip is played by the same actor (James Hawthorne) who had played Dr. Kenneth Bryson on The Edge of Night.

Ryan's Hope Discussion Thread
On that clip above, Tina says, "I've never really been with a man before." Who is she talking to? I remember vaguely that she had a boyfriend who was her lawyer after she returned from Califoria. He learned that she was the daughter of Victor and tried to encourage her to go after her inheritance (which he had his eyes on). Is that the person?

One Life to Live Tribute Thread
I absolutely HATED Fiona Hutchinson and the character of Gabrielle. She gave absolutely no enjoyment to me in watching the show. Then, how she stole Delila's desiging business absolute was downright mean, deciteful, and underhanded! Most of the time, such actions are punished in the end, but she got away from it. I hate that the show brought her back after she had departed!

One Life to Live Tribute Thread
Sadie was not exactly a housekeeper herself. She was the head of the housekeeping for Llanview Hospital, although she did work for the Siegel family as a second job. One book says that she also worked for the Vernon family, but I don't remember that. The first African-American actress in a contract role on a soap opera was Miki Grant on Another World, during the time that Agnes Nixon was the headwriter. The Edge of Night had featured Al Freeman, Jr. before that, but it was not a contract role. Also, when Ms. Nixon was the headwriter of The Guiding Light, there were African-American performers (James Earl Ray, Cecily Tyson, Billy Dee Williams) but these were not contract roles. Irna Phillips integrated The Brighter Day in the early 1960s when Rex Ingram was hired to play a character. The show was cancelled quickly after that.

Meg Mundy was in the pilot only. Burke Moses did play Curtis. After that, he also played Bulge on One Life to Live.

As The World Turns Discussion Thread
Oh no. Penny later married Roy McGuire. He was the ex-husband (and a former convict) who was the ex-wife of Penny's sister-in-law Sandy Wilson McGuire. Roy and Sandy had a little boy (Jimmy); Roy wanted to get custody of the boy, so he married Penny, who was unable to bear children. Konrad Mathai played Roy. He returned to As the World Turns later to play the original Grant Coleman (and was later replaced by James Douglas).

As The World Turns Discussion Thread
I remember that he took a trip out of town. It was some type of medical conference. I think that Mr. Lipton was filming a movie with Sammy Davis, Jr. Neil was gone for a while, then Penny got the news that he had died. I don't remember how he died, however. The upstairs hallway was shown, and the audience heard Penny's reaction upon hearing the news. She did not hear it onscreen.

Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)
I have two comments on the interview with Teal Ames: 1. She mentioned her big break as being on The Edge of Night. However, she did not mention the role of Della Steet on the Perry Mason radio serial. I wonder why not? (Am I correct that she played this role?) 2. Teal Ames resembles Emily Prager, who later played her daughter Laurie. I bet that was a factor in the casting of Miss Prager.

Return To Peyton Place Discussion Thread
I had assumed that the set was based after the set of the original series (I am talking about the Peyton Mansion set.). They were very similar, with two stairways that led to oposite directions, then returned to the same direction. Admittedly, there were fans (such as you) who did not care for a particular couple. However, Vic and Laurie (and I did mean Lamont, not Hastings) were a couple that most viewers wanted to get back together. Particularly after he remarried Kay Reynolds.
