  1. Chillax! I wasn't challenging your impression of them. I remember my impressions of them at the time, dreamboats, etc. Both with such gorgeous eyes. I can't reconcile that with thinking they look older than they did, when I see them in video clips of 1966! It's a real head trip.
  2. OMG, my little theory had merit. How totally cool. So well explained! Go for it!
  3. Compared to Ed Mallory, for example, how do you see the two of them seeming age-wise? I have this theory that in the past people looked older. I think you can look at a picture of seniors in high school in '63 & again at seniors from the same place in '66 & see a marked difference.
  4. Rory's last name is Cabrera. I missed the last 3 minutes of the show. Anything happen?
  5. Nancy Curlee Demorest & Stephen Demorest wrote for GL for a 10 year block, 1985-1994. The last years they were co-HW with Jim Reilly. Nancy was pregnant & wanted to take a year off to have a baby. I don't know if Reilly left then or not. So, there's one change, the writers.
  6. 3 days in a row! Thnx! @victoria foxton From May 4, 1964, to June 25, 1999, AW was on the air for 35 years, a whole adult lifetime into middle age. Apr. 12, 1999, announced the cancellation, 23 years ago, a whole young adult's lifetime has passed since the hurt that day. How long will it hurt? NeverNot. NeverNot's the word I just coined to express how long it will hurt. @jam6242 The system does you a favor by merging 2 that you make close together. If it could be said to have intention, it means well. 😄
  7. I believe it!! 😜 Thnx for the reply. I'll give a mental thank you to Pam Long for bringing MG back then. I post pictures of Maureen often, just for no reason, and I'd say that MG has equal opportunity attraction.
  8. That's the most disgusting thing I've heard in months! Now how am I evuh gonna get that visual out of my head! I have a question. I've been reading & searching to try to find it but I have not. I figure it's been posted & thoroughly discussed, so this is probably duplicating. Sorry. When it came out of a Locher room chat that Pamela K. Long had someone in mind for Reva Shayne & that someone was not KZ, who was it?
  9. From May 4, 1964, to June 25, 1999, AW was on the air for 35 years, a whole adult lifetime into middle age. Apr. 12, 1999, announced the cancellation, 23 years ago, a whole young adult's lifetime has passed since the hurt that day. How long will it hurt? NeverNot. “We do not live in this world alone but in a thousand other worlds.”- Irna Phillips NeverNot's the word I just coined to express how long it will hurt.
  10. Today was a crazy day. And I think the outdoor scene was way too dark. Isn't the first rule of Lighting that you are able to see what is happening? But, worst of all, I thought at one point that Dante said the other burglar was dead. So just missing was a great relief!
  11. S2E1 did not premiere Monday night at 10E but going forward new episodes are supposed to premiere at 10E on Monday nights.
  12. Wow. Thank you very much. I will check them out!😄
  13. And knowing Corday he probably just said Possession 2.0-start with Marlena and went back to the golf course and let Ron do his thing lol Still, good to know. I can't figure out how they won the WGA Award! 🤪
  14. So, is there any truth to the rumor that went around abt. 2 wks ago that Corday asked him to revisit the demonic possession s/l? Of course, even if it were true there is a lot of room to wiggle around in, in how it got revisited. Short? Or Long? Serious? Or Goofy? Scary? Or Ludicrous? Fast-paced? Or molasses-paced?
  15. Isn't that the Carlivati Corollary which also came into play when a Parole Board made a family take their parolee in to live with them?
  16. I love it! I can just see Maureen going to Roger & Roger maybe wanting to kill Ed! No? Too much. Okay. Ed's the only person who did not have to pay for his mis-actions in the canon. History let Ed off the hook, pretty as you please. Lilian had guilt, shame & the loss of that friendship with Mo! But, let me remind you what Nancy Curlee said in this Alan Locher, Locher Room where he talked to her & her husband, Stephen. Nancy said that we'd see the car but then we'd see two people standing also looking at the car. We'd realize who they were! Maureen, alive, unharmed, not in the car, and beside her, Roger. Maureen would be very upset & be saying, over & over, "I've got to get out of here. I've just got to get out of here." Roger would try to calm her some but mostly would get her walking with him, go to a car & put he in & drive to a hotel (unless it was a boarding house or someplace, but someplace where he could stash her & no one know for some unknown amount of time) & leave her there & reassure that he'd come tomorrow. And, that's what Nancy Curlee wishes she had written, now looking back on it & all that has come since then. I think its brilliant but I'm biased I think she is a brilliant writer.
  17. I'd have Danny Santos turn out to be a long-lost, or previously unknown child of a Springfield veteran. Once this reclamation of Paul Anthony Stewart's name & history, I'd conclude all Mob storylines, forever. I'd have Michelle & Bill realize that they meant more to each other than just the good friends they were, that there was a spark there & recreate the promise of Young Bill & Young Michelle. I'd give Olivia & Natalia a realistic wholly realized sexual relationship. Tammy would live & she & Jonathan & Sarah would live happily ever after. Somehow I would prevent Ben Reade from ever meeting Eden. I know, Eden never came to town. She found a mark too good to be true & she & her grifter's heart would be busy fleecing him. So, Ben would never become a sex worker & never suffer a devastating mental blow resulting in suicide. There would be no Jeffrey O'Neill. Prince Richard would not die. But, he would come near to death & have an Epiphany & disavow the crown & eschew the kingdom. Edmund would leave to go home & run that same kingdom that we would never hear another word about. Richard would found a company that printed the words to poems on products for sale. His first big seller would be a series of things, like a lap blanket, framed print & stationery set with the words to the Mary Oliver poem, Wild Geese, on them. @Mitch64 Can you tell me what stories Millee Taggart-Ratcliffe & her co-HW began that Ellen Weston completed? Do you know why they didn't just stick with Millee & whoever it is I can't think of right now?
  18. This is a great place & you describe it well. It's a good place to think. I love Bill Bell but I have a bone to pick with even him. He is one of many who participated in violence against women, rape, assault he said/she said, etc. I realize that he is a product of his generation, though.
  19. @will81 just wanted to say that I am enjoying your thoughtful replies.
  20. Me, I still don't get it. But, I didn't get either of the second locale or second 'hoods. Not the Island Empire nor the mob. But, I never went in for fan grroup activites. I just liked who I liked, didn't like who I didn't like & tried not to trip over yet another portmanteau! What I'd like to see & which fits in with this thread would be for everyone to do an elaboration on Nancy Curlee's alternate Mo Bauer story. We could call them AltMos. The goal would be to have the best way to get Mo back into a place of her own.
  21. Oh, I hate to pile on, but to me it was worse than missing what NLG's acting choices would have been, it was getting actively wrong choices, repeatedly. I understand that it couldn't have been helped, ...
  22. About FIRE! AW 3-6-79 thank you so much for linking to this video, so good to watch, but the fire takes my breath away. That is an Eddie Drueding video. He created the Another World Home Page. If you don't know it http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/ you can check it out some time. He has his entire AW video library uploaded to YT. Another fan who is also all in on their whole AW video library is chase4ever
  23. In theory since it is just Yesterday+ 1 more day they should have been able to. BUT it is an entirely different set which would suggest it might be impossible. Heads? Or Tails? The thing is they would be highly motivated to do so. At some point we have to give them the benefit of the doubt, I mean, don't we?
